WC vs History Article Archive Now Online Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Today is the 68th anniversary of the largest carrier battle in history, the Battle of the Philippine Sea. To help commemorate this anniversary, the CIC has organized our WC vs History series into a new archive. Over the last year, seventeen updates combining different Wing Commander references and their real-life equivalents were published through the hard work of research and writing by several Wingnuts. LOAF, Bob McDob, NinjaLA and myself really have enjoyed researching, writing and providing art for this series. The reception from the community has been great! We're glad that everyone enjoys the series. Thanks!

Here's the listing of the entire series along with a link to the archive itself. It can also be accessed from the original articles section as well. Enjoy!

On average, the CIC pushes out one and a half terabyte of data each month. Much of this traffic goes towards big downloads, and we have plenty of entertaining files that you may have missed in the past. We recommend a download manager to help the large files along. Below are just a few of our favorites. More can be found in our Files and Music sections.
