    Rapier Gripes

    Yes! you are reading correctly! I do mean the F-44 Rapier II aka Uber-Fighter. While everybody are griping about the Toilet-paper-hulled ship, the Centurian mud pig and the not-so-hellish Hellcat, I felt the need to gripe about everyone's favorite. Oh, don't get me wrong, I do like the...

    Scimitar Gripes

    IIRC, in SM1 (before the Dralthi 2) there are a few places were you are being sent to fly Scims because of "operational reasons" (shortage of spare parts for the other ships?) - essentially the programmers say to you "hey dude - we have 4 fighters, and we want you flying all of them" I actually...

    Why didn't Confed fight the Kilrathi more intelligently?

    I think I remember a thread which open with a very similar headline, not long ago. I don't think it ended very well back then.

    Action Stations and Space Points

    Well, I have recently finished Action Stations and had few questions: 1. Banbridge - In 2634 he is the chief of staff for the fleet, but by End Run he is just another fleet commanding admiral - how come? was he demoted? 2. Kruger - at the end he crushes his frigate on Fewcett's world -...

    Your favorite carrier to defend?

    And if all else fails, you can always apply for a WC CIC credit card! :D I'm sure they will approve if for the purchasing of any WC related accessory... :D

    The Lonesome Death of FreeLancer 2 (December 5, 2007)

    You actually played it!? YOU DOG ! ;):D so.. how was it? too bad they didn't let this one out... Also about the FL "Beautifulness" - the biggest handicap of FL for me was the (extremely) short single player story line - as much as one can enjoy an MP session, for me, there is...

    The Lonesome Death of FreeLancer 2 (December 5, 2007)

    Scaling WC-2 Ships to Conform To WC-1 and WC-3/4 Size Standard

    All WC fighters have the cockpit's canopy very nicely displayed - once your start tinkering with the pictures you'll notice that at quite a few fighters the canopy is "a bit to large" for the needs of a the single pilot flying them - I specifically showed the case of the Gladius (with a canopy...

    Scaling WC-2 Ships to Conform To WC-1 and WC-3/4 Size Standard

    I would like to point out only one of your points - you said that: So I went a little tinkering - making the Gladius 36 meter long means its 75.5 meters wide (yap!). It's cockpit would be 11.2 meters wide - wide enough to accommodate a crew of 4 sitting side by side, and still have room to...

    Scaling WC-2 Ships to Conform To WC-1 and WC-3/4 Size Standard

    Be advised that this issue have be discussed again and again (and again and again [and again and again {and again... and so on and so forth}]) - never ending with any good results. WC have their sizes set as they are - as you mentioned WC2 fighters are much smaller then in WC 1-3, bet the...

    What are the differences between the WC1 and WC2 material (mainly the LaFong account of WC1 and 2, and the background section) published in the WC Bible the material published in the WC1&2USG?

    Do Some Academic Research (November 17, 2007)

    Hi, I'm trying to get the WCATV Bible (and the other docs) but they are "not there". The link takes you to the relevant new piece which in turns just sends you to the origin museum forum... No files... :(

    Stealth Technology?

    You need to remember that the stealth fighter in WCATV does not have a cloaking device! I uses a passive, non-visual, form of stealth - in a sense an F-117 Nighthawk in space - The fighter simply won't show up on radar and normal sensor, and is painted black so it will be hard to see - Hard...

    Space Marshall Tolwyn ... ever fool?

    IMHO, Tolwyn never expected Blair to go along with his plan. The idea behind reinstating Blair had a number of "stages": First he reinstates Blair - "I'm doing anything I can - including reinstating Cofed's greatest hero of all times" Then: If Blair dies, Tolwyn goes to the senate - "You...

    Newb Question - highest rank in WC1?

    I always thought of the Golden-Sun medal as a kind of a "Symbol of Cain" - 'you ditched your multi-million credits craft, and we want to be damn sure everybody knows it - and we mean EVERYBODY!!!!'
