    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    Shoot! I need Khajja to be alive in Venice to get the Silver Star in Mission 1 :>{ Looks like I need to remember that next time I want 8 Silvers at the end of WC1. BTW - if anyone is still reading this post, I will repost (eventually) with a summary of my discoveries. They should be pretty...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    I need to get that Manasi book. There are used copies out there on the 'net for sale. I don't know why damage would be a factor - it doesn't make much sense, anyway. But I read it on the internet http://www.adrr.com/wing/01.htm, so I thought it must be true... BTW, I just made it to Venice...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    Update - in Rostov M1 I received a the Bronze medal with 9 kills. My ship sustained moderate damage ("Looks like it got a little hot out there, sir."). I had read that a damage-free mission was required for the medal. Looks like that was incorrect. So far I have 4 Bronze, 6 Silver, and 2...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    Hey gang, If you are any good (unlike me) you can probably StR in just a few tries by trying t.c.cgi's "protect the back end" method mentioned above. I think also, you have to know how the game is going to react (processing-wise) and remember to adapt with that in mind until you succeed. A...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    t.c. cgi - I saved the Ralari after about 10 or 12 tries! Wow! Protecting it from the rear made a huge difference. Luck did play a role, but your suggestion helped. Thanks again!

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    Yeah, I want everyone to know that I "bravely sacrificed my ship" to save my own yellow butt. And as a bonus, it looks real nice on my uniform...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    Chengdu M2 - I have a correction to make: according to Wedge009's (pretty cool, btw) website, http://wedge009.net/wc/wc1/chengdu.php the dialog script shows a Bronze after 7 kills. Also, I just received a Bronze for only 9 kills. This is an addendum to the "path of most medals" post above. You...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    I ejected on the first Enyo mission, after I killed everything. I think on any mission where you are looking to lose the sequence and no medal is available you are free to eject and not worry about going off the max medal path. If you are looking for max kills along with medals you can eject at...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    I have started my "path of most medals," looking to earn the most Gold, Silver and Bronze Stars possible for WC1. Here's how it goes: Enyo - lose but get Bronze on mission 2 Gateway - save the Claw for Silver on M2, lose the Drayman but get all 8 kills on M3(including Bhurak) for another...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    That's quite a medal collection you've got there! I wonder if anyone's mapped out the maximum medals possible in WC1. I read here http://www.adrr.com/wing/01.htm that it's possible to save the Ralari (getting the silver) but lose the Kurasawa series in order to get the gold, silver, and bronze...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    Hey Gang, GameTap has made it easy for me to enjoy the game that got me fired from my first (and only) computer store job! Ah yes, I can still see my boss march up to that old 386 PC for the dozenth time and shut it off because he was so pissed at me. Such sweet memories, and now I can...
