Do they disappear or are they shot down? I thought the game spawned the Strakha ace over and over until they were dead.
(But yes, Flint dies if you choose her and then fly with her and you get a 'Blair alone' ending... but if you choose her and *don't* fly with her then they're together.)
Agree with LOAF...they don't just disappear, the game spawns infinite aces that go after one of them until one is dead at each station.
Although, I believe the "official" story is that Maniac was one of the three that accompanied Blair and that he survived, even though he was shot down? (Maybe picked up by the Kilrathi and spared because they immediately signed a cease fire?)
Out of curiosity, who were the "official" pilots that accompanied Blair, other than Maniac? If Vagabond was one, then he must have somehow survived as well, since he has an official role in WC4. And who was the "offiical" Blair love-interest choice?
