False Colors is the book that explains a lot about Tolwyn's motives.

Ok...OK,I'll stop:) .

Well,that's why It probably wasn't to effective against armor.It was an old laser.As for being able to kill without being destructive ,it it possible.The weapon could act as more like a high-intensity,but low power weapon which would kill an organic being. Like electricity or a stun weapon on...

That is correct.It was from that story. A weapon could be designed to be low powered so it would not damage metal.It could be designed to cause damge to the nervous system,for instance,while still having a low enough output to prevent the searing of bulkheads.As for armor maybe it still can fry...

How can anyone say that about the music of Wing1.It was great.One of the principle reasons that game sticks in my memory so well is because of the music.Whenever I hear the barracks piece from Wing1, it floods me with nostalgia. Back to the topic.Both of the themes were good.The original theme...

Not all laser based sidearms are dangerous to use in starships.Grayson Burrows,for instance,had an old laser weapon "which worked well on flesh without damaging a bulkhead."

While Freelancer's mouse interface sounds questionable(Earth and Beyond is also using a mouse interface,by the way),I think it would be a good idea to hold judgement until it comes out and we get to test it out firsthand-if the game ever comes out.I do not think that Chris Roberts(now Jorg...

In no particular order, here is every sentient race mentioned in the Wing universe: Mopok Dioscuri Dolosian Oasian Yan Hari Shata/Utara Wu Varni Eyoke Sorn Gorth Ka Mantu Nephilim Kilralthi Firekkan Jarma Haggan Hagarin Steltek Star Gods(true identity unknown) Double Helix...

There are a lot of races in he universe.A great deal come from the novels Action Station and Fleet Action.There are four new sentient races from Wing Commander Academy.

I suppose it's a good possibility.Do you think that Origin,assuming that they had everything planned out, would give Forstchen that knowledge,though?

I know that the book came out after the game; I was talking about Origin using it for future games if they ever made it.I'm going to stop now, because I realy would not want to come off as sounding stupider than Lehah ;).Seriously,though I do not want to start an argument over this, so I think...

Granted.But, Origin still rarely uses elements of the books in the actual games outside of background information.Thus,I still doubt Origin would use anything from the books to propel anything as major as the Nephilim's origins.

Ok,regardless of what Captain Johnny meant(and I do believe the books are equaly important)the fact still remains that there is little evidence to support it other than a purely speculative assumption.I doubt that Origin would have limited it's creative control of the Nephilim by conforming to...

Action Stations was officially listed as being published in January 98. The book actualy was realesed a little earlier,however.The book was written earlier to the time of release.Forstchen and Origin have very little contact.In fact,not long ago, Captain Johnny was here stating that most of the...

I doubt that Forstchen meant for the aliens in Action Stations to be the Nephilim since Prophecy was not even realesed when he wrote it.Likewise,If Origin had made more Wing games,I doubt that that is where they would make the Nephilim originate from.Plus,those aliens were basicaly coming system...

Where the Nephilm came from is unknown.We do suspect that they have been watching our part of the galaxy for countless ages.The use of wormholes would suggest they came from some distance.Wormholes do not negate the possibility of there coming from another part of the universe or even...

If we did discover a way to go faser-than-light,it, more than likely, will not be by literaly breaking the light barrier.

I'm afraid not all of this is entirely correct, to some degree.Actually, we humans do know the amount of energy it would take to rip a hole in the space-time continuum(using it to travel is something entirely different).It is the Plank Energy or 10-to the 19th power -billion electron volts.That...

No.being,myself, someone who has studied the martial arts,I will tell you that ther comes a point when an enemys size and strength will matter.A human no matter how skilled just does not stand a chance against a 8+ foot tall(who knows how much they weigh)cat with 3inch razor sharp claws,hand to...

My favorite music would have to be from Wing 1 and 2.I especialy liked wing 2's music.While Wing 1 had a heroic quality(which is good,too)Wing 2 had a darker more mature and subtle feel.From the opening "Cloak and Dagger" to the emotional piano pieces by Jazz, I would have to say this games...
