Well... I don't know about you... but I think us Veterans should sign up for this competition and kick some tail!

Well... you'll find all of the books you need at on-line bookstores, except End Run. Unfortunately, that is no longer in production, so you'll have to get it used. Good hunting!

Too bad they don't reproduce the WC series anymore. I believe it would still sell if they used some advertisement into it. Afterall... aren't we Wing Commander fans???

Mercedes Lackey's books that she writes (like The Chrome Borne) are great novels to read. I agree on Quarto on how Foreschen isn't that great a writer. ...Now if only the pilots in WC had Mage-Sight...

Excuse me? The militiary have had lasers since the US Project Star Wars (those who don't know what it is, Project Star Wars was a project for anti-missle defense, or SDI). Hey, who knows how far back it goes. Do you want to hear something really interesting? This professor invented a...

Not really. If you think about how people come up with those callsigns, you wouldn't be surprised at all. Afterall, Wing Commander 1 wasn't the only game who used Maverick as a callsign. Heck! They use that same callsign in the present day airforces...

Like our friend said from the previous reply, even the Behemoth had major flaws in it (like not being able to hit the braod-side of a barnyard). Perhaps they are so easy to destroy because it is the crew who stink so badly; and they just don't use their weapons effectively. Hey heck! Your own...

I wonder if what he learned about body language came from a positive experience... or an experience where whatever is being held in the potential's left hand (right hand if half past the hour), ends up in his face... ... I just hope she wasn't doing sheet-metal

Y'know... your Wingmen are suppose to be supporting you... not hindering you. Hehe... I guess Origin thought it would be more of a challenge to have chimps fly wingmen.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was already brought up; but considering I wasn't there when it happened, I'll ask anyways. Where in tarnation can someone get those SO episodes? Many top sites apparently have links to them, but the links are broken. Anyone got a clue?

Well... Tachyon is suppose to be a good game. Hopefully, it will run on my computer though. If you've noticed, the system req. for Star Lancer, etc, is pretty steep.

Ahh... but that brings my point. Fighter/Bomber weaponry design supercedes that of the common cap ship. The only reason those cap ships last for a few years, is that they haven't done anything but above the minor skirmish. Exerpt from Wing Commander: Privateer "Our entire fleet jumped into the...

Yeah... it is the Bug Cap Ship. Looks like they made a little hickup with that mission; the cap ship leaves too soon. If it were to stay where it was for a couple of minutes longer... than it would be possible. But only getting 10 seconds (less???) at wasting that thing... Not even a nuke can...

There has always been one thing annoying me in the craw... If you're aware of the WC series and cap ships, you'll recognize that many of them are destroyed *snaps fingers* like that! But... it takes years just to make a destroyer or cruiser; and Confed loses them like hot-cakes. ...I don't...

Holy Mackerol... Star Lancer is one heavy-duty game... I hope your computer can handle it, because it is one heck of a game (no... really).

hehehe... I remember an excerpt from Origin (now that you mention it) when WC1 came out. "...Wing Commander's Advanced AI System..." lol... The programmers at Origin designed the program well. As for your wingmen crashing into you; be careful with your maneuvers. Your Wingmen have the...

OK... let me clear both formats up for you: CGI: CGI is full, 100% computer graphics. Every little polygon and doohicky is CG. Because CG is still in its potential infancy, FMV is preferred over CG these days. FMV: Full Motion Video. FMV constitutes some computer graphics as effects...

...You don't even want to hear my middle name... Anyways, Chris Roberts has no middle name (I scoured around the net, and couldn't find it myself). Try a different question, more game based (or better yet, based on the movie; I bet he knows less about the movie than he does about the game). Try...

XCOM: UFO Invasion, Ultima 1, Duke Nukem... those are pretty good games (XCOM is quite good, I still play it). And you said they are the FULL versions? I'll need to verify that (I'm no subscriber, but when it hits the shelves, I'M BUYING ONE).

It seemed that he took many roles in the Wing Commander Series; but the roles were so small that most of the time he wasn't even in the credits.
