Indeed...my first intro to AMGs was flying a ferret in the first WC2 system and hitting a big neutron blast, which promptly vaporized me and left me scratching what was left of my head. Then I saw a big purplish blob go hurtling out of concordia and hit a fralthra...kablooey! Let me tell...

Why assume or ask? Try downloading them and see for yourself! :-)

Dyret, it's even easier than you think. The configuration is in either an xml or ini file, you can just go in, find the command point limit (a fighter squadron is 2, frigates are 3, cap ships are 4 points or something like that) for each faction and adjust as you like...mine were promptly set...

Good question...there's nothing in the ships database. As others point out from time to time, there's plenty of ship designs in use by Confed that have been used for a long long time with updates and overhauls.

*nods* That's one of two thoughts I had... We never see a destroyer launch a torpedo in WC2, but it's there in the fiction and it makes sense. The only other thing I could think of would be the "maneuvering/fuel scoops" from the books...but these aren't present on the Concordia or Waterloo...

Not necessarily, LOAF's answer is right (IMO) I don't think the WC2 engine actually had instances of turrets. The ships were sprites and weapons fire seemed to come from the middle of the ship. I'd argue that's why LOAF answered that one so bluntly. Besides, with Wing Commander, if...

As Chris says, far from it! Aside from the new ships, revised weapons, and new locales/plot line.... (heh, aside from that little difference) What was really different and cool about Secret Ops was the internet delivery system. Oh, and it was free! :D:D:D Every week, they had a new 4-6...

Wing Commander: Prophecy (WC:P)is a really good game. If you can find the WC:P "gold," then I highly recommend getting that. In the original WC games, they released some "Special Ops" packages which expanded on the story and tied up some loose ends. WC:P Gold includes "Wing Commander Secret...

Yes, at almost any point in the WC arc, you could reintroduce and follow someone/something else as the story evolves. Recall that WC2 shows us the Third (?) enigma campaign. Why not present the option to fight the first or second enigma campaign aboard a different ship? On a different...

Starquest looks interesting...but it seems like it maybe a little TOO role playing and TOO persistent-universe...as in, you have to bathe your character, use the latrine, drink, eat, change clothes... You can't log off with your character in any position where they could be attacked because they...

Hey...writch... were you around for the days of the "donut horn"? :)

Maybe you could assign the damage based on the hex face? Against the rear quad would decrease speed or turn rate Against either flank would decrease either armament or turn rate Against the front would decrease either armament or shield strength... Applying damage Armament: 1d6 to...

HA! Awesome! :)

Same here...not a bad game, fun to play, *shrug* I'm enjoying it... Agh, Sins of a Solar Empire... I'd been hearing a bit about it lately and then, about two months ago, the local half-priced-books had a copy for $20. I wasn't sure if it was a good deal, as I hadn't expected to see it...

This changes nothing, you shall fall!

ahem...SPEAKING OF WHICH... PIP? :)

I have to agree with LOAF's take.. Priv 2, while not my favorite in WC, stands out with some VERY intriguing and interesting design decisions. Some of the detail touches in the game are nicely done. It may not be the most successful game, but there was some real creativity at work and that IS...

Looks more to me like the gunnery officer was drinking on duty ;)

blammo! nice hit by the AMGs!!!

"Lucky shot, Ace!"
