    However, in the losing track in Gwynedd, a Ralatha is substituted in for the Hha'ifra

    Freespace 3?

    Yep, Broadswords were seen in WCATV, so they're most certainly around in WC1 days.

    I think he's asking if the wallpaper's reserved only for Ghost, or if all CICers can make use of it.

    Help with WC2 final mission

    The original plan for that mission was to have the player fly against both K'tithrak Mang and Thrakhath's flagship - 2 torps for the station, and at least another 2, possibly more, to kill the Dreadnought. For whatever reason, the Hha'ifra was removed, leaving only the Bloodfang, a few...

    Border Worlds Fighters

    The Excalibur was crammed with everything that could possibly be squeezed into a heavy fighter. As such, it was quite expensive. The Bearcat was designed to be the less complex heavy fighter that would be easier to build/maintain.

    kilrathi fleet in wc1/wc2

    Snakeirs and Snakeir II class carriers are out and around...Blair just never runs into them in the missions he flys in the WC2-SO2 time frame. It's a case of the "small universe" syndrome again - just because we don't see it in the tiny part of the WC universe we see during that time, doesn't...

    WC Bible

    Given that there's about 6.5 billion people alive on just the Earth today, 2.1 trillion sounds perfectly reasonable for a galactic war that lasts for 35 years, given the number of systems humanity is in. The idea that the equivelent to 1/3 of the current population of the Earth is all that died...

    Kilrathi ship weapons?

    I seem to recall him ejecting more often than not...of course, I always wondered how he had another Morningstar the next mission ;)

    Wing Commander Saga Announcement

    If it's the same Hermes mentioned in WC3/N (and the captain's name seems to confirm this) it's a Concordia-class fleet carrier.

    WC2 Era Escort Carriers

    Except in Prophecy, they never use the "And Control System" part of the SWACS...just the Spaceborn Warning/recon capabilities. The Seahawk functioned more as a recon ship than it did a futuristic Boeing E-3.

    WC2 Era Escort Carriers

    Blair flies a Broadsword in Niven that Angel says has been rigged to detect Kilrathi jump trails...sounds rather SWACS-ish to me, in terms of the recon data at least. Sabres seem to be in the SAR role as of WC2, though the Broadsword could do it as well, given the tractor beams it carries. My...

    No medical.

    In the 3rd mission of the Heaven's Gate system in WC2, Angel says that a "Dr. Sayers" reports Spirit as being too ill to fly - hence the reason Blair's out there by himself when Strakha's attack him in his missle-less Epee. EDIT - there's also several mentions of pilots being tended to and...

    Didn't the Landreich fly Hornets equipped with neutron guns?

    Wing Commander 2 Music Identification

    The first one (31_Wing Comander) is music that plays after landing, when your fighter rises up and the tech salutes with and gives a one-liner (got away clean, you're lucky to be alive, etc) The second one(36_Wing Commander) sounds very much like the awards music...I'm thinking it's the...

    Wing Commander 2 Music Identification

    Yep, Patton's correct (not to be confused with the music that plays during a cutscene of the Concordia jumping in)

    Wing Commander 2 Music Identification

    Glad I could help with those, and I'll be glad to take a look (er, listen ;)) to the other ones.

    Wing Commander 2 Music Identification

    Track 22 (MIDI WC2-28) is the landing music Track 24 (MIDI WC2-30) is the torpedo lock music Track 31 (MIDI WC2-37) is the upbeat O-deck music Track 33 (MIDI WC2-39) is another O-deck music from Jazz's piano...usually used for "neutral" cutscenes (as opposed to the upbeat or depressing ones)...
