Thanks for the signal boost, this week we're trying out some new mechanisms! The crew may steal a page from wing4 on Saturday night, 10:00 pm for their next Daring mission!

So... beautiful Btw, I updated the RPG engine after seeing this. A few bugs remain, but fetching the database entry for a ship looks much more wing1 blueprint. Thanks for the inspiration.

I know, I can still dream, right? I should clarify, I love the work done, so it got me inspired, now I want more!

Looks great, I just wish it had the "front back" view and annotations too, and that the data were in a cassette like the OG blueprints.

The books helped with that. From a pragmatic point of view, could you come up with a better villain than someone played by McDowell?

My theory, wing2 uniforms were used for certain fighters, wing3 uniforms were used for better pressurized fighters. On the flight deck, you're on the armpit of the fleet. In wing2 you're on the crown jewels.

Freespace is horror, wc is power fantasy. But they both deserve love. ;)

Freespace 2 is awesome, wing commander is awesome, Rebel Galaxy is awesome, x-wing is awesome, Necroposting. But yeah, not enough of us left to fight. Let's just enjoy this stuff.

Well the vic did ram a dreadnought.

Any chance of having some tigers claw's mentions today for superbowl? it's a bengal class. ;)

Yes, we can, we can also look at the Alkari from Master of Orion... I would argue the the Firekkans are more dragon/drake like than avian as they have arms and wings. They are predators since their eyes are forward facing. There are plenty of options. I was saying... we've already done bird...

I remember getting wing2 as a christmas present when I was at my grandmas... and I basically ran off to a bedroom and studied the manuals thoroughly for the entire evening avoiding family. I got home and installed it... but was not allowed to play it until the day after... I was so looking...

I think we could have done it.

Here's an animatronic version of a bird/pteranodon Alien. I hope it looks nothing it it.

A pity they couldn't go warhammer and just license out their IP to everyone. Bethesda did something like that with new vegas too.

I assumed that in wc2 the capships are invulnerable, since they can have the full explosion animation, play the sad song then continue to fight.

Sparks... fly.

Remember, Pliers has people skills; he is good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people? ;)

I know it's not cannon, but there's a character in the Gemini sector RPG: Dallas Seelig, who would give them a run for their money IMO. Here's a transcript of him sharing a post-work beer with his supervisor.

Amazing, a nearly 30 y old franchise has such a vibrant community!
