    so basically what you're saying is that, only regarding the character of tolwyn, he first was commodore of the claw (wca, ep1) then was promoted to commanding admiral of the 14th fleet on the concordia supercruiser in wcm and then went back to be the captain of the claw by mid october of the...

    Freespace 2

    they released the actual game? it's been out for a few years now. and i wouldn't say the genere was brought down by any game, but by publishers going bankrupt and licenses ending up in either no or the wrong hands. all lancer games, for example are owned by microsoft, and their engaement...

    i also had the oppinion that the movie was kinda seperate, but i've been told otherwise. your order can't quite be because in the movie, mav and maniac first arrive on the claw. during most of wca, they're on the claw

    Initial reaction to WC movie in '99

    you might have a point there. if those are films that ran in theatres, they are apparently SO bad they never made it to europe. alone in the dark was on screen for an entire week, after all...

    ok, my bad on the high commander. it was an assumption based on the fact that there seemed just his fleet between vega and sol(and he was- what, five jumps out) but never mind that. what i'd like to know is if i get the chronological order right: 1)wca(the first ep, blair and maniac at...

    no, the fact that you said wc1, wca and wcm were happening more or less in the same timeframe, and that he can't be both commnader of all confed fleet and commodore of the claw, that makes me think that tolwyn in wcm is either the father of commodore tolwyn or it is indeed a seperate canon, or...

    right, but they do in wca, and there theire actually the same person, so if wca, wcm and wc1 take place the same year, and are part of the same storyline, commodore tolwyn must be tolwyn the secon, UNLESS the movie is a seperate canon

    it wasn't explicitly said, but i'd guess its not too far fetched that ramming a ship into a planet will cause a lot of internal systems to break. just having read your blackened post, i have to admit it is somewhat...difficult having three different storylines supposedly taking place at the...

    no, nuclear is not a synonym for large. it's a synonym for "ship fusion core breach";) about that fighter, guess i dropped it from memory, that point's to you. i must admit i always thought that academy was years before wc1 also. but then, i didn't really have the background info you had...

    SW Battlefront 2 --> WC Total war game? Just a brainstorm no announcement

    because what you see of the space dogfights, the map sizes etc. i admit i haven't seen enough of ut06 to take more than an educated guess what kind of role vehicles will play there, but in ut04 their role was negligible compared to bf or swbf edit: don't get me wrong, ut 's a great game...

    actually, if there's one thing wondering me about the wca storyline, it is how thrakath managed to survive a nuclea explosion on top of him

    i think what he was trying to say is that they follow similar design patterns. as for the trafalgar...i didn't know there we two of them. trying to count the numbers of ships with the same name, it looks like confed runs out of names to give from time to time:D

    i see it this way: the visual style(soz for starting on this again) of wca is different from wc1. not only that the trafalgar is a bengal here, while in wc:games it is a jutland, but also the claw itslef looks a lot different. i suppose you can regard my approach as a re-interpretation...

    SW Battlefront 2 --> WC Total war game? Just a brainstorm no announcement

    from what i've seen in the trailers it would be a better choice that ut, since it has bigger maps an more vehicles in those. i'd say that ground based mods(only ground based) propably feel more at home in ut, like orchestras, for example

    this pic is even weirder, since the manassas cruiser is smaller than the destroyers in it. also, i intentionally left out wc3, because wc3 designs have about as much in common with the other ones of the universe as they have with freespace, with the possible exception of the movie ones, but...

    no, but you can get a fairly good idea from the ship's features. the byrd fram wca has several rows of windows on the bow section, meaning it has AT LEAST 3 decks, plus it has a bridge tower. corvette size vessels however usually still have a cockpit more than a bridge, see the...

    funny, that corvette is bigger than a destroyer. i was more aiming at a small stealth craft(not stealth like in dragon/strakha) but with a low sensor profile. this thing is a cruiser size vessel i knew they existed, yes, but... the ship fleet tactics shows as a byrd was clearly one of...
