It's quite obvious to me that not a horrible ammount of attention was paid to ship design and dates in the games, but it sure is fun to site these examples and find excuses for them. E.G. Every Confed ship in WC2 was scrapped in WC3. Only one year later. Explanation? Oh, well... uh...

Damn. Well then have you ever met another Darkmage who was a WC fan? This guy was a serious writer\role-player, and had an awesome character. Locos'imm, or something like that. I've been trying to find him for almost two years, but he's disappeared off the face of the internet.

I know we were talking about Tolwyn, but it was mentioned, and I just had to know. How do you know he was promoted? If it was in a book, I don't buy it. We've been told that when books and games contradict eachother, we should follow the games.

Darkmage, were you a member of the Rogue Elite?

I barely understood what you just said, but here's my two cents: Ever since the initial novelty of FMV wore off on me about half way through Wc3, I wanted to go back to computer-generated characters. Traditionally animated, or 3D modeled. Either way. We could go back to the mold of Wc2. The...

Wolf Tango Foxtrot! When was Maniac demoted? He was promotod from Lieutennant to Major sometime before SO2, and he's been a Major ever since.

Damn. Now I want to play it. But I heard the Claw from SWC is the Lexington from Armada. Is this true? DO all the ships look the same?

There are so many things wrong with what you just said, but I'll be brief anyway. The bug's strengths were not the same is the Kilrathi's. It wasn't about Technology. It was about numbers. They had more. Much more. Ostensably we saw a very small fleet in WCP\SOPS. Were a new WC game to...

I've been absent from these boards for a few days due to the fact that I was sick and lazy. But being sick and lazy gave me the opportunity to fix my DOS box, and play some Privateer. I replayed Rightious Fire, and a couple questions popped into my mind. Firstly, what the hell happened to...

The vast majority of your base are belong to us. A small minority of your base are belong to you.

And by the way... The Border worlds were not a region of confed. Just an Ally.

I would give your arguments more credibility if you sited your source. So far, our arguments cancel eachother out, considering neither of us has stated that we got any information from Origin or Chris Roberts. But to be perfectly honest with you, I wouldn't trust Origin. Only Chris Roberts...

Face it. They screwed up the map. The Gemini sector is the BORDER between Terran and Kilrathi space. If you don't believe me, check the game, or even just the intro for the game. None of these arguments have me convinced. I know what Millitia means, and that's totally irrelevant. Let's look...

I have problems with that because people go off all the time about how Freespace 1\2 are better than Wing Commander because they're harder. That's the biggest load of crap I've ever heard. I think they just have the difficulty set too low, and they haven't played any WC game that came out before...

I don't disagree with that. I just hated the Wc3\4 engine. Felt like I was flying a desk. Kinda' like Freespace 2. Sure, the missions were original, but I didn't find them very entertaining. I beat Wc4 enough times to get every ending, and see all the changes\choices I could make, and then I was...

I thought this deserved it's own thread. I recently stated that the Border Worlds millitia is in Gemini, and that is the millitia that you fly with\against in Privateer. I was promptly shot down. Why? Gemini sector IS the Border Worlds. Granted, the WCP map doesn't specify that Gemini...

(Preaching ensues) On the whole, there are many games I really couldn't care less about. Warez just doesn't apply to them in my mind. I'm not going to list examples because I'll be flamed. But there are two things I'll never Warez. Anything Rogue Software makes. (They need money!!!)...

I would never give up any of my WC stuff. My Blueprints, Claw Marks, Victory Streak, ICIS hardcopy... none of it. Especially the book that came with Kilrathi saga. That rocks!

Re: Re: Quo Vadis Space-Sims

Broadswords and Paradigms. I think we should all be wondering why Confed would keep Bombers and Destroyers in civillian space. I mean the Border worlds millitia fighters in Privateer were mostly civillian craft (and one confed craft, the Gladius.) You'd think Confed would've had some Sabres...
