The first death was during the first week of SO2, when I discovered that the new AVG really likes system resources when it's doing a scan. The second was a bit later in SO2 again when I forgot to turn it off.

I finally got WC3Edit working. I had 466 WC3 kills before leaving on the last mission. Vagabond took out 1 Paktahn and 1 Dralthi before I sent him home, leaving 28 kills for me. I tried the trench run this time and didn't take out any Ekapshis, leaving my total kills for WC3 at 494. Should have...

Argh! Dosbox crashed right as the T-Bomb hit the fault line. I spent what felt like forever in that damned trench, so the movie recollections are thanks to HCl's wonderful WC Movie Player. Kilrah 1: Our force of 4 Excaliburs make a break for the jump point as the rest of the fleet...

My wingmen need a "Attack from the weak spot" command, that's the second time someone's had to eject because of a Fralthi. Freya 1: Rollins is waiting for me in the lift. Apparently, he can't get over his amusement at Vagabond decking Dr Severin. I'm not sure I appreciate his attitude...

Loki 1: A very surreal sight greets me on the Flight Deck of the Victory. Rachel is working on an Excalibur, but her trademark appearance is gone and replaced by a very prim and proper looking lady. I can't resist going up and ribbing her for getting chewed out by the Admiral. I've been there...

Is there a manual for the WC3Sav program somewhere? I couldn't get it to work.

Whoops. I can't believe I forgot to post my journal. Journal for the next week should be up on Thursday. I'd also like to thank the person who wrote the alternate joystick routines for WC3. The controls were starting to hold me back too much until I remembered the existence of this handy...

Yeah, the journals are a lot longer for Wing Commander 3, just because the number of cutscenes has gone through the roof. I hope I've kept a good balance between detail and brevity.

Whee! I'm finally caught up and I've passed 1000 kills. It'll be interesting to see how my numbers compare against the real Blair's. Blackmane 1: I find Rollins and a few hangers-on lounging around a news report and complaining about the war effort and how it seems we aren't winning. A big...

I've gotten both that have come up so far, though Bloodmist wasn't intentional. I'd forgotten that he breaks off to attack you and I really should have ignored him in favour of his wingmen. I think I'll pass 1000 kills this week, as well. We'll see how Ariel goes.

I'm catching up now that I've got the game issues sorted. Blackmane I finished tonight and I should have Ariel done tomorrow with any luck.

Well, those tweaks were a bust, so I went with plan B. Set the flight mode graphics to VGA. Now it's running a lot more smoothly. Tomayo 1: Maniac and Flint are watching the Excalibur go through it's paces on the Gunnery Deck. Flint spots me but I motion for her to keep my presence a...

I've made a few tweaks last night that should get me across the line for the next week's worth of missions, which I should be able to get through tonight. To be honest, you won't see the Hellcat much, but I'll make a point to take it out every now and then. I should also point out that...

Sorry I'm late! I've had a horrible week at work and similar DosBox issues to Flying Target's. Not to mention the incredibly long into and try to journal it :) Intro: Damnit, it's happened again. First the Tiger's Claw and now the Concordia. I'll never get used to the feeling of knowing the...

That would explain the guide :p

Why are you taking a Privateer guide?

I think a fire on the flight deck means that it's Tuesday.

Hehe, yeah. I remember waaay back when I first played SO2 that I tended to kill myself with the Mace more often than I kill the enemy. It's very pretty, though.

And so ends Wing Commander 2. Ayer's Rock 2 is a doozy of a mission, just like the last Ghorah Khar mission but without the billions of torpedoes to keep me company. Fortunately all the same tricks worked and I'm not entirely sure if the second Fralthra actually fired it's AMGs. Did anyone try...

Nah, WC2 Angel does it for me way more than Minx.
