    I suppose in many ways I should have reviewed before I typed.

    Tolywn-Tyrant or Patriot?

    Hitler with good ideas? Never heard that one before. Tolwyn was always painted as "the man who got things done". So was Blair, but Blair actually cared about the people involved, whereas Tolwyn just kept throwing technology and personnel at the problem until it got solved. Telamon was a FUBAR...

    What's the most powerful Confed cap ship?

    The Vesuvius carriers kicked ass. Hell, they could even shoot inside! That, I feel, is the way that the Kilrathi (and indeed, the Confederation) could have significantly reduced the time of the war. The fighters were all stored inside the flight decks, which you could fly into, killing every...

    Let me get this straight...

    I seem to remember someone posting before that P2 could have been set hundreds of years after Secret Ops, and that the CIS is the remnants of the Confederation. Not a bad theory. Explains the lack of Confed, which is "a much bigger machine than we can possibly imagine." A bit depressing...

    Obsolete ships

    Blair didn't have to wade through red tape because he defected, taking life along the way. Now, although Hippie, Hazard, Quality and the other unnamed Lexington pilots were sacrificed that had to be made in order to save millions, possibly billions of lives, it has to be said that Blair didn#t...

    What happened to the Vesuvius?

    Yeah, Blair and Hobbes were on a station orbiting Ghorah Khar, chatting about the various ways to end the war. Blair says he'd like a quick strike, to kill the Emperor and heir. Now, Hobbes vetoes this, saying that there's always someone to take his place. This happened, even though Melek is...

    An idea which I think will be unpopular

    I hear tell from numerous sources re: Wing Commander 1, 2 and 3 from the Kilrathi point of view. I think this would be difficult just from the perspective of the Kilrathi culture. Failure means ripping out your own throat in ritual suicide. Having said that, if they get it to work, maybe...

    Would it be practical for Origin?

    To redo Wing Commander 1 and 2 in the Vision engine? At the very least, I imagine it would appeal to the fans. Funnily enough, I preferred the WC4 engine to the WCP one. Although the Vision engine allowed greater tactical flying etc., Wing Commander 4's one did this with some more realistic...
