    United States of Europe

    Yeah, but what ever happened to liberal young people? These kids are talking about how the media should be censored and that the First Amendment isn't a big deal. Coming from young people, that's enough to make my blue-stater heart wilt.

    People with glasses in the military?

    Yeah, there are people in the military with glasses, but it always seemed strange to me that the Black Lance soldier that's checking the cargo pods on the flight deck of the Black Lance starbase has glasses. First, I would think that by the 26th century, eye surgery would be the norm. Second, if...

    Fett's Vette

    I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else, so: http://swvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Movies.List&category_select_id=2 Check out the video for "Fett's Vette." It's a big file, but it's well worth it.

    Taking Screenshots

    Not so much screen shots, but captures of cutscenes or sequences in the engine.

    The Greatest Gun

    I liked the Fission Cannon a lot, but was anyone else a little disappointed when you actually used it in-game. It seemed to be so much cooler in the cutscene. However, had they made the bolts faster and thus, easier to be accurate with, it probably would've been a serious play balance issue.

    United States of Europe

    I disagree. While I think Americans do respect (if not revere) our constitution and the people who wrote it, I do not they do because it is unchangeable. In our education system, our founding fathers and the work they did are mythicized. Most Americans hold both in the highest regard, but could...

    Wing Commander Medals

    I've never known the DFC to be something you get if you don't do well. IRL, it's the second or third highest decoration an American pilot can recieve.

    Artemis-Class Asteroid Base

    That model is pretty true to the game, if I remember. However, with current technology I imagine you could definitely do more. Wedge's suggestion of having a cluster of small hangars is very good, as it would luck much more hidden. Then add a texture and smooth out the surfaces some.

    Misc. Factions

    The Tri-System Confederacy is in Privateer 2, which takes place centuries after the events of Prophecy. I believe the rest of them are from the books, which I've never read, so I'm sure someone else will fill in the blanks.

    Wing Commander Medals

    Nice acquisition, Nelson, got pics? Edit: Nevermind. I see them now on the medals page.

    Wing Commander Medals

    I forgot about Prophecy (other than getting the medal at the end). I always liked the X-Wing decorations system where you got stuff for completing missions and doing stuff in the game. Hopefully a WC fan project will come along with something like that. :)

    Taking Screenshots

    I have a related question. Using Kilrathi Saga and WC4 w/win95 patch, what program/procedure works best for taking video/motion captures?

    Wing Commander Medals

    It would have been, but I can't imagine that the story could've accomodated the achievement-driven (as opposed to plot-driven) medals system used in WC I. You couldn't earn medals in WC II, either.

    The Flying Tigers: A Wing Commander RPG

    Not to butt in and extend this thread any further, but there is another established RPG based in the Wing Commander universe (which I believe this one was based off seeing as how he joined ours and left shortly afterwards). Anyhow, it's called Battle for Enigma and you can check it out here...

    Have to sell LIFELONG Wing Commander collection

    Gyah. It's a shame that you have to do this. If you have to break up the lot, I'll buy the novels.
