Wait a sec...He's played all "WC games (accept for 1, 2, privateer, armada, and academy)"? Maybe I'm the only one who sees something wrong with that sentence, but that's because I've played all the WC games except 2,3,4, Priv 1 and 2, Armada, and Academy.

Ok, not to piss anyone off here, but all of the speculation posts have a million "maybes" in them. And I don't know WC like LOAF and others do, but the arguments to support these theories seem really weak. However, on the flip side, even the most knowledgeable fan here is pretty arrogant to...

I'm an exception to that rule. I wasn't even a WC player until a couple of months ago, and I saw the movie soon after it came out, in theaters. I just went to see it cause I hadn't seen a space combat movie in a while. I figured it wouldn't be any good and so I didn't have expectations. I really...

One of the interesting aspects to me about the Nephilium is Casey's conversation with Zero about it. Zero says that the word "Nephilium" comes from "...an ancient Terran Biblical text." I'm assuming he's referring to the Bible, since Genesis refers to the "sons of God" coming to live with the...

Ok, I figure if there's any topic thread to list a dumb or useless question, this is it... Is there any way to view how many posts you have made? Just curious where I'm at and stuff. Although maybe secretly I'm searching for universal fame by achieving a high rank on this board.

Shane: I had the full X-Wing game, including both add-ons. I also forget the 4th TOD name, but it was about the Rebel evacuation from Yavin and the subsequent search for food and other supplies. No SD vs Cal fights in that one, either. But this is a WC board...forgive me.

Yeah, I can see how games get better with stuff to build on. I think that if Prophecy were a new storyline, say if WCI-IV had never been created, few people would have liked it. But that's the beauty (for a company) of building a huge series. You can afford a dip (though Prophecy is still a good...

Actually, I was playing through some Secret Ops the other day and I found a few missions where Cerberus comes in contact with some enemy capships. There's one where she gets close to both a Nephilum carrier and cruiser. And later, I think its the mission before the last one, when you have help...

I meant Hawk instead of Dallas, that was a typo, if that's what you are referring to. And how am I going to become sure if I never post "unsure" remarks in the first place? Humor your large ego and let a newby post his stuff.

I'm sure this has been posted before, but I haven't seen anything discussing this. I've only played WC1 and WCP. The impression I've gotten is that most people think WCIV is the best of the series, in both gameplay and storyline. I'm going through Prophecy again and I really think most of the...

How come the "hero" (the human character in the game, from Blair to Casey) fights on so many different carriers? I guess it makes it more interesting, but then no ship ever seems like home. Or were the ships destroyed and stuff? As far as cap to cap fighting, I think Prophecy (the only recent...

Forgive me for being stupid and a newbie to WC, but I have a question. How do you land after a mission in WC1? I got the PC Gamer Disc with it, 2nd most recent disc, and so I didn't get any documentation with it. I was told by a supposed WC vet that I just fly into the hanger at "moderate"...
