    Callsigns

    Heh, I did that once off the 'ol Claw. Got the Golden Sun, then just kept getting reprimanded. But you know what? I beat the WHOLE game. I saw all the cutscenes. Only took me like 15 minutes also. Those idiots kept letting me FLY!

    CVNs aren't designed to 'cruise' at 30+ knots the whole time either. The Iowas are not slow - they are many things, but that is not one of them. They could easily keep up in any modern fleet formation/engagement. Enterprise is not as outdated as you think. She is, though, due to be...

    Hmm - I wasn't referring to the Zumwalts at all. The Iowas were kept at a ready status for several reasons, not the least of which was national pride. The 16 inch guns were certainly unique and for the most part, irreplaceable. My point was that by the Gulf War, the primary weapon for the...

    Concordia-Class Fleet Carriers

    I just read through the FAQ, and it seems odd to me that the supercruiser would only serve for 13 or so years. It is possible to have two ships in service with the same name, and I would think that the ship would have plenty of fight left in it. The only thing I could think of that would...

    Definitely looking for the WC1/2 delux CD... Gotta have that.

    Ugh... you're good catch now lets me publicly display how deep my stupidity ran. I purchased the floppies for the Amiga ASSUMING that the SM would be part of it. Not only did I get floppies that didn't work with my systems, I didn't have the SM either. Though, I suppose that was a good...

    While I agree that the technical rules of grammar have not changed (though there seem to be some new theories on starting sentences with 'and', for example), I do think there is no denying that the level of importance placed on these rules (the rules governing when following the rules is...

    Wing Commander III Cloak/Decloak Sound

    Your ring tone should be "You cannot defeat the Drakhai!!" That would get old pretty fast, though. :D

    WOW! Banshee 1/72

    Thanks for the translation! That makes sense - I often scratch build details for models that I am constructing. The polystyrene sheets come in different thicknesses. The modeler's skill is quite advanced. I can scratch build elements for a kit, but generally speaking, I can't scratch build...

    It's SO stupid, but I have never been able to play SM1 or SM2. I have the WC1 Delux edition, but SM1 and SM2 were never on the CD. Then, since I didn't trust the CDs, I went on a fruitless search to find the expansion disks. I ended up buying, perhaps even MORE stupidly, the 'amiga' version...

    To get way off topic, I think we are definitely at a crossroads concerning grammar in society. It seems to be losing its importance; at least as far as adhering to all of the technicalities is concerned. It's interesting to try and predict what will be emphasized and what won't in another...

    It's tough to tell from that listing - did the Wing I/II CD also contain SM and SO?

    WOW! Banshee 1/72

    Look at page 7 - the cannon and canopy are incredible. Hard to believe it's 1/72nd; looks great!

    It's a conspiracy. Origin was God - they created worlds. He's a fake atheist since he himself is a diety. But it's a secret so don't tell anyone k?

    Scale... what if...

    Flying that stupid midway always felt dumb. Never turned like a bengal, and always looked like someone stepped on it on the sidewalk. Plus, there were all these other lame people in my cockpit yelling at me. Since when do you need more than one person to fly a spaceship? Pshaw. :D

    I always wondered about this. Otherwise, that would be an awful way to go - your pilot suddenly decides to ram the target and you're helpless to resist!

    Explosive New Poll Asks About Torpedoes (July 18, 2009)

    I have to agree that it's WC2 all the way. Taking out a cap ship really felt like an accomplishment.

    The Durango

    I do think the "one stop shop" approach makes sense in this case.
