I’m curious to know about some of the more interesting times people have had playing the Wing Commander games.
Probably the most memorable moment I’ve had was the first time I shot down a torpedo in wc2. One time when I was escorting a badly damaged Gilgamesh and saw a Kilrathi launch a torpedo I was sure I had just failed the mission. I’d spent a lot of time trying to shoot down missiles without any success; it never even occurred to me that torpedoes might be easier to destroy, so when my gun shots came into contact with the torpedo by accident I was shocked (and very happy) to see not only the torpedo blow up but the Grikath that launched it appeared to be destroyed by the explosion.
