Paladin Loses Hair, Eye
Certain releases of the Macintosh Super Wing Commander come with Claw Marks and a playguide manual in electronic format. This version of Claw Marks includes the updated pictures and descriptions of pilots and ships featured in the game. Since SWC covers The Secret Missions and an entirely new campaign, Jazz and Doomsday are among the neat additions. Super Wing Commander had a new art team, and the end result was a unique design style that was partially incorporated into Privateer, Armada and beyond.
Alexco did a great job converting the original E-Doc into a PDF for everyone. You can download them below.
Here's a sample of an additional news article that was not featured in the original PC edition of Claw Marks.
A Shaving Off the Old Block
No matter what profession, everyone’s involved in the war ...
doctors heal the injured, hydroponic farmers feed the masses,
laborers construct new ships and people everywhere lend a hand.
Still, the sobering facts remain. Families are wrenched apart as
they cross the line from life to death. Wingmen are lost during
battle. Friends never come home.
This war isn’t easy on anyone, especially for those who lose
loved ones. Still, we’re all finding ways to remember what we’re
fighting for.
For example, you may notice a change in some of your
comrades’ hairstyles as the war progresses. In memory of family
members who have died for our cause, many Confederation
pilots are carving ‘memorial shaves’ into their temples. Vowing
to keep the bald streaks bare until the war ends, they’re choosing
to remember their loved ones by continuing the fight against the
Empire.
So next time you see a newly shaven comrade, offer your
condolences. And, be sure to count your blessings.
