I love the scene from Maniac's autobiography there, showing how the entire Morningstar program was scrapped, design documents and all, during the...
Ah, too bad Maniac only got a one-liner here--I had been hoping for one of his usual anecdotes with a brief rant detailing his feelings about the...
I definitely like the visuals here, especially your "parody" of the original Wing Commander box art. I, too, enjoyed ASCII sector and think that a...
While in-game the transition is definitely nearly instantaneous, we also saw some scenes in the Wing Commander Academy show where traveling through a...
The message buoy from Pegasis station might be due to the Kilrathi jamming communications during the attack (or perhaps they hit the main comm...
While passage through jump points is very quick (often nearly instantaneous), travel between the jump point where you enter a system and the one...

Just an FYI, but if you do as Pliers recommends and divert your useless shield power to the engines, you can bring your speed and acceleration back...
I like these little snippits of Maniac's autobiography. Who writes them?
We must also ask ourselves what role the ship will be fulfilling--is it still acting as a destroyer (i.e. directly attacking other light capships...
Well, he did say that he would have set the game in the Wing Commander universe if he had the rights to it . . .
Presumably any ship of sufficient size would carry a pair (or more) of shuttles, so a minimal landing bay would be likely ("minimal" as in "have to...
As far as bipedalism goes, any tool-using species is going to need to have something that can do the things that we do with hands--whether it be a...
Yes, a minimum-energy launch window would be when the spacecraft would cross the destination planet's orbit 180 degrees away from the starting...
