RE: To Earthworm's message Actually, I'd like the next game to be a mix of both -- it could be a simulation that requires some strategic thinking on behalf of the players -- kind of like something similar to what would be considered multiplayer Blast Radius if you've seen that PlayStation game.

WC game based on WCATV I think that the next WC game should be based on the WCATV series. And in the WC game, it should be multiplayer (at least 5 people can play -- I know the SNES enables 5 to play on it at once). Also, this game should be made so that it is more of a wing commander game...

I remember when I bought my 1st WC game, WCI for the SNES, the first pilot I was with was Spirit. She was one of the most reliable people you could count on. In WCIII, I always thought that Maniac and Flint would've had something -- they think pretty much the same way. Maniac doesn't follow...

The non lethal discussion Chip: Can you give an example of a race conquering another race and nobody on either side getting hurt? Since we consider WC to be realistic, the answer to your question would be yes -- my group against the Black Lancers (my ordinary humans against the GE race of...

RE: To Earthworm's message And that fighting option was not a viable option. The only viable option was surrender. As you can see, the Kilrathi can surrender, they just have to be "convinced" that's what they must do.

RE: To Penguin's message below Penguin, I guess it depends on what definition a person uses to define "war". My Encyclopedia defines a war when groups try to destroy or conquer each other. If a group conquers another group but does not kill that other group, that group waged war against that...

RE: To Earthworm's message Earthworm wrote: Yeah, and majority of Kilrathi didn't give a flying f*** about what Melek said since he has no authority. CB: Actually, in the Price of Freedom novel, Melek states that many Kilrathi believed that the Kilrathi lost their homeworld because they...

Penguin wrote: OK I'm probably a little out of my depth here, but radar doesn't depend on how much energy you're emitting. It sends waves out that bounce off solid objects & return to the radar. If you turn off your power that shouldn't affect radar. What you'd really be doing is shielding...

Dragon wrote: For a kilrathi surrender is NOT a option. Why because its to lose Honor and ashamed their Clan. CB: Oh really? Then how do you explain that Ragitagah Kilrathi who in Price of Victory surrendered? And remember, Prince Thrakhath was a prisoner. There was a WC episode in which...

RE: To EarthWorm's message EW: There would never be any demos.... CB: How do you know that?

RE: To messages below EW: Yeah, Chip, I'm sure that OSI is just waiting to create a small game with few missions, some unbelivable technology, and release it for free, because some fans will ask them for it. CB: We could playtest the demo. I'd love to playtest it against you. EW...

EW: A transport doesn't carry anything that could hurt a corvette. CB: Yes it does -- 2 turrets -- transports have been known to use their turrets to destroy fighters. EW: Do you think that a single ship is manned by one clan? Especially a ship as unsignificant like a corvette? CB...

RE: To Penguin's message Penguin, I would've taken out the Skipper missile. I just think it would've been funny if the Kilrathi Corvette Crew was humiliated when they got shot up by a transport. It might have encouraged them to surrender -- in Fleet Action, the Kilrathi don't consider...

The unusual equipment discussion I have an idea, why don't we encourage Origins or whoever to make a demo WC game with those "unusual equipment" like gumguns, gigantic screens that can be unfolded to block line of sight and radar waves, mechadrones, mine layers, recondrones, cloaking systems...

RE: To Napoleon's message Napoleon: yes chip i know, I have played Fleet Action as well but it is not the same and I still could defeat someone who spent all their money on salvage corvets which you would have to do in order to do what you want to do. CB: I do not believe you understand...

RE: To Napoleon's message Actually, Homeworld is perhaps the best bet for reinacting WC battles except maybe for Imperium Galactica 2 or WC Armada. There is something called the Big File Viewer that lets people customize their own games' weapons (so creating a torpedo like fighter is possible).

Escorted transports should fight corvettes In WC III Heart of the Tiger, I would've preferred the transports to have opened fire on the corvettes in Orsini. I think it would've been funny to have blown off all corvette turrets and then let the transport shoot up the corvette.

Replies to messages below Napoleon: Chip you are still intent on capturing every cap ship in the Universe arent you even when it is logistically improbable to even be able to capture 1 tenth of all the ships that would otherwise be destroyed, do you know of all the Logistical nightmares. AND...

RE: steampunk steampunk: And no one in their right mind would develop a glue gun. CB: Well, steampunk, I'll make you a deal. You don't have to use a glue gun if one is optional to use in the next WC game. I for one happen to like having something to immobilize guns and turrets so they...

RE: To Earthworm EW: So, basicly you've summed up most of your previous ideas from this thread, the most improbable and stupid no less, and you posted them again CB: If they're so stupid, I guess if I use them against you in a WC Armada like game, it's probable I'll lose. If you truly...
