John Spencer, I believe his name is.

Did he have any other commands prior to the Lexington?

Topgun: Did you ever have trouble with Gamma Wing? To be honest, for me the absolutely most infuriating thing about Starlancer wasn't the torpedo runs, but Gamma Wing. They were so vulnerable it just drove me nuts, no defensive turrets whatsoever, and a beacon for enemy fighters to converge...

Have any of you actually tried nailing torpedoes that the Grikath launch at the Concordia in WC2 on certain missions? Very difficult, since you can't target them, but possible.

By far one of the most annoying things for me in Starlancer was my bad tendency of getting hit by capship cannon fire. Instant vapourization.

Were we ever told how the Kilrathi cloak works? Do Strakha utilize that rare crystal Pliers mentioned too?

Thanks! Might try one of them out.

Damn that ion cannon! I remember how much heartache that gave me on the last mission. Had to use a Shroud for that one, because anything else without cloak and I'd get wasted by the beam. You wouldn't believe how many times I kept hearing Moose's, 'The ion cannon is tracking us! Get out of...

IIRC, the Shok'lar cloak only lasted for about a second before it was visible again. I think its only use on the Shok'lar was as a countermeasure.

The last time I played Starlancer must have been last year. Was Viper the guy who was your former wingleader? And was the pirate leader called McGann, by any chance? Well, in answer to your question, I love to take out the pirate leader more. Loved it when I taunted him, and he goes something...

IIRC, if you fail to destroy the supply depot yourself on the first try, the second attempt involves the Victory firing its own torpedoes against it.

It's more satisfying to make Jazz beg for his miserable life.

That reminds me of Spirit's return to base comm in WC2, where she goes, 'Goodbye, my friend'.

My favourite episodes would have to be 'Invisible Enemy', 'Word of Honour', and 'Price of Victory'.

I disliked Edmond and Jazz the most. Favourites are Hobbes and Khasra Redclaw.
