This is the Star*Soldier gloss for the second weapons page:

CONCEPT: See the previous post!

REFERENCES-

  • The missile graphics are also all from the original Privateer's source models. The ones that aren't familiar are ones that were cut from the game - the torpedo model was an antimatter torpedo and the "Vampire Missile" was originally the "EMP Missile".
  • "Terran Standard" - I think End Run actually says the language of the fleet is English...
  • "Dragonfly Technology" - Another reminder that there are massed-missile technologies in Wing Commander.
  • Missile specifications are from earlier games. Costs are from Privateer.
  • "Rarest high tech weapons" - Because almost no one knows what a Vampire missile is.
  • "Oldest targeting missile" - References the Victory Streak description about Heat Seekers being invented in the 1950s.
  • "Killing blow to any fighter" - I included this because in Arena your torpedoes are giant slow dumbfires for hitting other pilots.
