    The Confed Army?

    We keep on seeing the Confed Marines. What I want to know is where is the army. Marines are only supposed to be there for a little while until the army gets in. Where is the army and what ships do they use to transport their Material. The normal marine transports wouldn't work. You would...

    What happened to the Vesuvius?

    For some odd reason i think that Tolwyn was right. I admit some of his methods were cruel. But he is right, humanity should prepare for another war. Look at WCP Confed would have gotten overrun if it wasn't for the MIDway. I still think of Tolwyn as a patriot. He served Confed, no not...

    What happened to the Vesuvius?

    Actually the United states used Japan as a base for some time after the war. ANd the United states installed the government there too. Whether they put the people who like the U.S. in power is up to debate. Aw ok you softies. But hey come on a few systems. You don't fight for 35 years and...

    Obsolete ships

    The Midway was in a Pinch. they just contacted a new hostile race. I think they had to improvise. But the Seahawk is kinda the equivilant to a Hawkeye,(the AWACS plane used by the NAVY). I would rather have a fighter with some Recon pods. Like the TARPS pods that the F-14 uses for recon.

    What happened to the Vesuvius?

    I understand that The Vesuvius is a popular ship, I love it more than the Midway.(DOn't throw veggies at me Please!) What I don't get is that COnfed probbably spent billions or more credits getting the design, materials, ship builiding yards, tools, and the like to build these ships. Why not...

    Obsolete ships

    In WCP the Seahawks were vulnerable to enemy fire and needed fighter support. Plus i think they are too big to be used as scout ships and way too weak to establish a "beachead" in hostile space. I understand that the flashpacks are useless against the newer confed ships but how about the...

    New dimensions to space warfare?

    I know what you mean but i meant that the wasps are soo cool. They have that mean look and i know they could not handle those extra long scout or BARCAP missions.

    Obsolete ships

    WHy are they useless. On the bug ships or on kilrathi or human ships. I mean if Confed got into a domestic war i think the flash packs would be kinda useful to instill fear. But hey thats a maybe. Ranger...Ohhh. I still like them (or Cerebus or something smaller than the Midway) and i would...

    Obsolete ships

    I feel for you brother! But hey i gotta admit the Dragon has to take a very close second place to the Hellcat. Maybe its the name, maybe it is how it looks, hell maybe it is cause i killed so many furballs with her. SHe will always hold a place in my heart.

    New dimensions to space warfare?

    Yeah i know what you mean baby! I love those wasps too. But i think only a dumb commander would ever not have a BARCAP patrol but i see your point. Some commanders are dumb, like it or not.

    Obsolete ships

    Confed is not stupid. The dragon technology was probbably adopted in the new generation of fighters. Where are the flash packs. It does not matter if they were used in genocide they could be invaluable to Confed. One pack destroying one of Confed's flagships is a force to be reckoned with...

    New dimensions to space warfare?

    I was talking about when Tolwyn was about to destroy Loki, he was able to get the drop on them because of the Pulsar. I said that the Panther and Vampire would be better. YOu misuderstood me. True that having speacialized ships would be better but why don't the wasps carry long range...

    New dimensions to space warfare?

    As you know today's military war is quite electronical. One of the most integral weapons is jamming or ECM. What i want to know is this technology used in the WIng commander universe at all? Like in WCIII when the pulsar blocks communication signals could this technology be replecated by the...

    The fleet structure of Wing Commander

    You see Confed guns in WCIII when you die or one of your comrads die and there is a military ceremony. I think 4 people fire off what appears to be a laser or plasma sort of weapon. I want to know if these are used or the ones in WCIV are used. If you ask me i would like a Pulse rifle baby!

    The fleet structure of Wing Commander

    Well the Pheonix (sorry bout the spelling again) was made by the Navy to destroy incoming soviet missles duirng the cold war. It is presently carried by only one aircraft in the Navy which is the F-14. Yet since is suppopsed to be phased out soon there are doubts to whether it is needed in...

    The fleet structure of Wing Commander

    Thanks for the feedback! Thanks for the feedback. But a couple of issues kinda made me think. First, the main reason why the Iraqi radar was innefective was because it was perdominantly ground based. Apaches, F-16's, Jaguares (pardon my spelling please), tomahawks, and a multitude of other...

    The fleet structure of Wing Commander

    This goes to the guy who said fighters sucked! A long time ago (around the time of WWI) a man once said that the aircraft carrier would rule the seas one day. Everyone laughed at him and said, "The battleship and battlecruiser will remain the kings of the ocean forever!" When WWII came along...

    What happened to the Vesuvius?

    O.K. I admit it The vesuvius class is kinda antiquated yet I still can't get over the fact that Confed is putting all their eggs in one basket. Take a look at that fleet destroyer in Wing Commander Pro. Imagine just for one second that that thing plunked one dead on the Midway. There goes...

    What happened to the Vesuvius?

    Alright, everyone remembers the gigantic Vesuvius and St. Helens from WCIV right? What I don't get is that where are they? I mean in Wing Commander Pro. there was no mention of them. I mean the Midway is all fine and dandy but picture this a new grand fleet... Midway class megacarrier in the...
