    Confed Light and Heavy Cruisers

    Which ones (Ajax, Coventry, Sheffield) were the destroyers and which ones were the cruisers escorting the Victory in WCIII? I forget, or maybe I never really knew. What actually happened to the Victory's escorts? We all know what happened to the Victory. One of the only ships Blair ever...

    WC games for sale

    Torps?

    High-Rez Hornet

    I can't say that I agree with their conclusion

    Remember: Compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges. It really isn't fair or accurate to pit two totally different forces together and declare a winner on common ground.

    Spec Ops Full English Download

    I thought at one time they were available to be downloaded on Origin's website. They took them down a few months before I even got an internet connection. Man how time flies...

    Poll: Ending Is Such Sweet Sorrow (May 26, 2004)

    I agree that WCIV was the best cinematically, but WCIII marked the end of a long road; One that started in a Hornet with "Spirit" on your wing.
