I like the two "pectoral" turrets. Don't know how useful they'd be (maybe one situated like a b17's ball turret would work fine), but they look hot.

One of the things I've always loved about WC is the right mix of story and action it brings to the table. I remember playing Half-Life for the first time and thinking, what a great game, and a good story for a FPS. Looking back on it though, I spent a long long time just making my way...

18000 tonnes

I believe the Senate never actually declared war.

Don't forget "Rock" man. =) Hehe, J/K. This is great news! It's not a new WC game or novel but with great artists and a great storyline this will be a great addition to the Wing Commander (unofficial?) Universe. Good luck! Anything you fellas need help with I'll be glad to if I can.

Keep the community alive is the most effective thing we can do. The Shadowrun community did the same thing and now Fanpro has bought SR and is taking it all sorts of places. In addition, Microsoft has put in an application to purchase the rights for a shadowrun game (prolly for Xbox).

I think everybody saw what happened to Master of Orion...

No matter the era, we need to see those awesome leather jackets from WC1...Please.

For the record, I used the stats listed under the Confederation Transport listed in the CIC Ships Database. Are these in-manual or in-game stats? On the particular mission, the transport was friendly. Maniac and I were to guard them in that first mission after arriving on the Lexington...

It takes 1 second to drain the capacitor while charging the Fission Cannon. With a recharge of 80, the remaining 9 seconds would charge up an additional 720 energy for a total of 1400 if the charge can in fact exceed the default capacitor rating of 680. This would give the Fission cannon a...

That dude in Priv2 picked up 2 or 3 chicks throughout the game. It pays to be the most badass pilot in the sector =)

I found one. Thanks.

Whatever. I was just going by the given stats.

Fission Cannon Research Test-flew a Dragon to see how many Fission blasts it would take to down a Confed Transport. (ACE Mode, DVD Version WC4) Between blast, I allowed the Transport's shields to fully recharge. Each Fission Cannon Charge was started at a full capacitor, and held for 10...

It is possible to outrun your own missile in WC1. I believe you launch at normal speed and then afterburn past it.

I guess nobody knows. Any ideas on how would be best to experiment with this? For some reason, I could see the Fission Cannon damaging capships in Prophecy, but I liked it a lot so I'm prolly over-rating it.

I'm not all that technical. Glide Wrapper? Where do I get one? All the other guns have sights, just that blasted stormfire doesn't.

Actually, in WC1 it either worked like a charm or ended up getting you smashed by a roid (usually in scimitar).

I'm not too worried about the wasted one or two shots, it's the fact that Confed makes a weapon and then gives the pilot no way to sight it in other than test-firing it. I mean it's possible, but seriously folks. That's like giving soldiers rifles with no sights. I'm not talking about a...

WC1: Hornet - Fast, manueverable, actually preferred using this thing to take out capships. Two lasers is a little light and speed/manueverability aside, it took a long time to take out a wing of gratha. 3/5 Scimitar - A little slow, but didn't really matter so much in WC1 it seemed...
