As Tom Cruise's Maverick would say, "if the government trusts me, don't you think you can?" It's cool, I totally understand. It's great news just to know there are things happening that the public *can't* know about.

Uh oh, should the likes of me stay out?! :)

Interesting, WC2 is my favorite game in the series as well - but not necessarily because I'm married to how the story turned out. I think my love of WC2 originates more from the fact that it was everything I loved about WC1 with better story telling and more variety to the missions (better...

Hey guys, 2 quick questions! 1. This stems from being forced to step away from reality for a while - looking to have GOG explained to me in a bit more detail. I have WC1 and 2 in original DOS formats that I run in DosBox frequently - is there any difference between what I'm doing and what GOG...

Wow, this really struck a chord with me. I've started feeling this way about multiple facets of society. In addition to your point about trying to argue with the nay sayers, I've realized it can often be even more futile than you explain it. How do you relate to someone the emotional impact of...

Ugh, I'm suffering from general Facebook fatigue - and I don't even have a personal account! All our clients insist on "driving additional revenue to our brand awareness initiatives through aggressive participation in social graphing." Wtf does that even mean? Try talking about eCPLs (effective...

The good news here is that there are actually quite a few P-51's that are airworthy. I usually quote 150 or so as a conservative number, but you can find some sites and lists of aircraft by the 'numbers' that list more. There are usually a few P-51's in various stages of restoration as well, so...

I couldn't agree more. The B-17 was terrible as well, my father gave me the heads up on that accident while I was away. Thank you for the offer with the pictures - I'm sending an email shortly... EDIT: sent sir, thank you.

Great excuse to revisit the film - looking forward to this! Like the new cover a lot.

It was a sad weekend for vintage aviation enthusiasts. I was deeply saddened by the tragedy that occurred at the Reno Air Races in Nevada. For those that may not know, it is one of the last venues where owners of souped up vintage fighter aircraft can race wingtip to wingtip as it was done...

Great scenery there - the idea of a monarchy presiding over a modern, space faring culture is neat.

Uh oh - NOW I've done it...

Booo. Total loss my #$@. It doesn't look like an Arizona to me, more like a West Virginia just begging to be returned to the fight to prove her continued worth! I've got it. The next WC game should feature a mix of dejected and apathetic has-beens near retirment mixed with new green recruits...

Wow, that's crazy. I remember thinking that 2011 was SO far away when I was playing it. I guess compared to the SC gloom secenario, we're doing well... But I guess compared to my former self, I'm old. Hmm - I think I'd sacrifice nation states for being eternally young (and making my living as a...

Many thanks everyone! It's good to be back - though it appears I have been demoted to Captain for my extended AWOL. Have the ranks changed? Ignore me if they have, still catching up - I'll figure it out eventually!

Congratulations! Looks like you had a far more amazing reason to be away :)

Hey all - it's been a while but I'm finally back. The updated look of the CIC is a great surprise - well done! It looks like I have to figure out an appropriate avatar now. Never thought I'd see the day... Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well. I've been catching up on all the latest news and...

I'm sure it is meaningless after so many compliments, but I love seeing your work. Another masterpiece!

Really, I'll take Wing Commander any way I can. That said, I think multi player modes are here to stay, so it should definitely incorporate them - intelligently - into the story to appeal to a wider fan base. I posted on this before, but simply put, a small co-op campaign could actually be...

We don't happen to know what Tolwyn's flag looks like, do we? Er, I suppose the better question is whether or not flag officers in WC still carry on the tradition of having a flag created for them in the first place. :rolleyes:
