    How long would it take for a Tallahasse to destroy a Ranger?

    Let's say a Ranger class was heading towards a jump point, and a hostile (don't ask.) Tallahassee jumped in, and started blasting at the Ranger. Would it go down in a few salvoes? Or would it take alot more than that? And while we're on the topic, let's say that a Vesuvius class (it was...

    Anyone got Volrath's jump gate textures?

    WC Fleet Engagements

    "Two ship element" means 2 bombers (you and your wingman) against the enemy and their defences. If you're lucky, you get 2 Hellcats as escort (a 4 ship element then). Anyway, I think the Capships in Freespace 2 might be a good analogy of how they work outside of the Wing Commander games...

    Why are jump points never heavily defended?

    Of course, you could deploy your defences slightly further away from the jump point... But the main problem is them shifting. Got it.

    Why are jump points never heavily defended?

    I've been reading David Weber's Starfire-verse, and I was wondering. Wing Commander Jump points are rather small areas of space, no? So why not fort up the whole place, shove mines, turrets, stations everything around them?

    Vesuvius and Star Destroyer Size?

    its "C" level canon. Sure, it isn't the Holy Writ, but its something unless you want to count turbolasers speeds in meters per second, and weapon ranges equal to the gun range of today's planes.

    Vesuvius and Star Destroyer Size?

    Hi everybody, I'm baack! Okay, just to answer the ISD slagging a planet in 3 minutes thing, its called Base Delta Zero, its in one of the books, and it matches up with the new canon firepower found in the Attack of the Clones Incredible Cross Sections (which is declared canon) that the Medium...

    Star Trek Online?

    yep, that's the one. I prefer Judgement Rites, its sequel. and I predict that this one will go down badly.

    Anyone not like the books?

    Nice work guys! I've been following this thread and it seems to resemble one we had at Spacebattles it was about the US vs the UK, and the UK supporter stubbornly dodged everything the US could launch at the UK. oh well... looks like you've won. we won too. Congratulations!

    Simple question; simple answer.

    torn between killing Will Forstchen for the horrible Star Trek book he wrote and merely torturing him for the Wing Commander books he wrote. (he gets a handshake for writing the WC books too) damn, why can't a very good writer write Wing Commander? Like McCaffrey(sp), Weber, etc. etc...
