I think I hate him more because I know I don't get to kill him. That's Blair's job. But the the next time I play WC3, I'm gonna take some extra pleasure in destroying him...

*SPOILER* Hate Stalker. Hate him. That mission was fun; the first time, I almost made it. Got all the way to the 2nd encounter with Stalker, thought "hey, I'll beat this next time". Wrong. Fifth time around, it's not so entertaining, going through all those Sorthaks and trying to come out...

Sweet! How long does it take? I'm just out of the Caliban nebula, and am docked at Torgo HQ. I've got three Bronze Stars and a Silver Star, and around 400 kills so far - I feel like the most highly decorated 2nd Lieutenant ever.

About the Skippers...: First of all, hate 'em. Which is kinda the point, I guess. In the mission with the Battleaxe, I knocked down all three Skippers, one with guns, two of 'em I finished off with missles. But, at the end of the mission, I only got credit for one Skipper kill. The same thing...

Still no promotions? I notice this thread has been dead for eight years; a lot can change in that time. Just sayin'...

Having just played the original Prologue, let me assure you, the new one is MUCH improved. In the old version, Baws gives Champ and his wing commander the order to withdraw, which he disobeys, and both him and Champ end up dead. THEN you get the lecture about how the wing leader (McCoy, I...

Dammit. I lose a nerd point for that one :p Alright, just cuz I like looking at myself type: on Proxima 2, a couple of things: one, I don't think I got any credit for shooting down the Predator missles. I know I must've shot down at least a few, since none of 'em got any of the transports...

Ha! Knew it! Didn't even have to read your tips. Passed that mission literally the first (alright, second) time after I posted that! Thanks for the tip about the Sheldon Slide (that's still what it's called, right?). Totally forgot about that handy little feature. What's the keystroke for...

It's so much the kills (alright, it is), but it's also the campaign ribbons from the time aboard the Wellington. Actually, if I cloned the pilot, then re-started the Darkest Dawn campaign, I had all the kills from Prologue, PLUS all the kills I had from the previous time I'd flown the first few...

Gameplay continuity issue: I didn't realize (at first) that Prologue was included with the Saga release, so I just started playing Darkest Dawn. Then I realized the Prologue was there, and that it was different from the initial Prologue release. Went back and played it, and it looked like my...

Alright, didn't really find a specific tactics forum, so here we go. I played the Prologue release a few times, and had no problems with those capship missles on the (last?) mission. In fact, that mission became my favorite mission in the WC universe the first time I played it. I thought it...

Used the asteroid file. Works a lot better. Makes the mission playable, but I still get some slowdowns/choppiness anytime there are asteroids or capships in my field of view. My system is pretty light, admittedly. Tolwyn, you also recommended turning off OpenGL Shading Language, but I don't know...

Hey, quick question: which starts first, Darkest Dawn or WC III? I know they both take it all the way to the end of the Kilrathi War (haven't actually played Darkest Dawn yet), but I was wondering which one starts first?

On Heating Up (winning path, mission 3, I think), I got the ace, but then I've got 4 angry Drakhai-piloted Vatari coming after me. I tried staying close to the capships in hope I could get some Vatari in the crossfire. I also call for backup a lot. I can survive the Vatari, but by the time...

Alright, I've looked around, and havent found this question yet, so I'm gonna assume everyone else already knows the answer: in the opening cutscene for episode 5, it mentions the results the last time the Kilrathi tried to attack Earth. When did this happen? Was it from the WC movie? Cuz...

Didn't find the Snakeir mission too difficult. At the fist wave, worked with my wingman to take out a couple of Kamekh's quickly, then go after the fighters. At the Snakeir nav, I did a torpedo run on the bridge right away, before the fighters could close in. With the bridge out, I targeted...

Alright, here's a weird issue. Played Lashing Out. The last Broadsword was destroyed, and Stingray called for the retreat (FUBAR was thrown around). However, I still had one torpedo left, and the Snakeir had already lost it's bridge and one of its engines, so I took out the other one. At...

Huh. Weird. It didn't show up on my mac, but it did on my phone. Go figure. Gracias

I couldn't find the Standoff mission tree. Does anyone know if it's still up?

I think keeping the killboard as flexible as possible (within reason) would get more people to compete. I was thinking there could be a kill tally for each individual game, as well as a cumulative total. I think at this point, we just need someone to actually DO it. Someone from CIC would...
