    Wing Commander Media Chronology?

    I finally (finally!) acquired the Wing Commander Academy TV show and figured I'd do a totally watch/read/playthrough of the Wing Commander series (I generally replay the games once every year or two, but this time want to re-read the books and watch the movie/tv show in about the right order)...

    Starpoint Gemini 2 Warlords release tomorrow

    Any other Starpoint Gemini fans out there? I loved SPG2 - probably one of the better recent space games I've played. The newest one hits early access tomorrow and looks outstanding. Also looks like a great candidate for Wing Commander mod!

    Interesting tidbit about Border Worlds/Gemini

    This is likely old news for most of you. ...now that you're still here. I've been reading through the Wing Commander Bible, and found it interesting that the author indicates that Privateer is set in the "Border Worlds" (capitalized) . Found that fascinating. My understanding after reading a...

    Post 2681 Timeline - or general consensus?

    So, I've been a lurker here for sometime, and have been a "wingnut" since I was a kid. But never really gave Prophecy its due (mainly because I couldn't afford it as a kid when it came out - lol). But am recently getting into it via gog (awesome). I've read some of the manuals (including the...

    Any custom campaign content out there?

    Privateer Remake on Windows 8.1?

    Has anyone had any issues getting Privateer Remake up and going? I can get Vega Strike going, but when I install Privateer Remake and start it, it closes with the "encountered and error" thing. I've been craving some privateer action, and while the original and Gemini Gold do scratch that...

    Recommended reading?

    I've been craving some wing commander-like space combat lately, as I've been re-playing all of the games (in order...and let me say, damn these games have aged well). Any ideas on some good fiction to read in the same vein as WC (outside of the actual WC novels)? I really like the whole "WW2...

    Crew Chief on a Broadsword?

    As I understand it, the WC2 era Broadsword had a crew of 4 (or 5?). A pilot, and 3 gunners (maybe a co-pilot as well). Would one of these gunners have been an enlisted crew chief, similar to WW2 bombers?
