    Confederation Ranks.

    i don't see akashra as bitching about the cost of the books, people just keep saying to read the books and that they aren't expensive. akashra replies with something like "that's more than i'm gonna pay" there's not much else to be said in his (or her?) position.

    Popular science fiction phases

    "Re: More than one Borg queen... Maybe. The one in First Contact was killed at the end, then another one popped up in Voyager, then, strangely enough, the one from First Contact returned in the Voyager series finale.... " i also seem to remember something in first contact about picard...

    WC! & 2 ship design...

    another possible reason for the long external weapons is cooling. i figure a powerful energy weapon would create a lot of heat. later models of the same weapons could've been made more efficient, creating less heat so they could be mounted internally without causing damage.

    Engine design...

    Matter/Antimatter powerplants are still pretty big. making one small enough even for a heavy fighter like the dragon probably makes them really expensive. that's why there were never many dragons.

    Awesome news for Secret Ops

    the "full version" available from origin does not include any of the episodes other than the first. i think full just means that it's not a demo it's a fully functioning part of the game. and about episodes 2 and beyond, some magazines don't consider it illegal to download the game after it...

    I seem to remember hearing a wierd sound when using the afterburners after i lost my acceleration absorbers. might have just been my sketchy computer.

    Pilgrim cross

    Waaay back in the day when WC4 came out, it came with a booklet style cd case with 7 sleeves. Since WC4 only had 6 cds some people said that there is a secret 7th cd that has another storyline. (i find the 7th sleeve makes a good place to stick the playguide)

    Questions about the Steltek

    I've run it on my 486 under windows 95 dos mode and on my amd k6/2 under win 98. basically the steltek are a very advanced and mysterious race. they created that probe (the egg shaped thing with the glowing green bumps on it) in the intro to privateer.
