    How much of a difference did it make?

    I'd just like to ask people who have big brains a quick question about WC3 and 4. How much of a difference did the conversations really make. I know that the WC3 guide says it "lowers or raises a pilot's morale" but did that really ever make a difference in the game. Especially the...

    What bomber was the most powerful in the WC universe

    Kinda starts you thinking, there were no bombers circa. WC1 unless you go by the movie version of history in which case they had broadswords back then too. They probably didn't have bombers because phase shields hadn't been developed yet so the need for specific fighters with torpedoes hadn't...

    Ship Colors

    Just a little tidbit about the Drayman, I checked in the CIC ship databases and it appears to be painted green as well. Just the tank is brown. Probably because the tank is made of a different stronger alloy for transporting materials

    What bomber was the most powerful in the WC universe

    I've played evey Wing Commander game except Special Operations(not Secret Operations, SPecial Operations, the addon to WC2) and I can say may favorite bomber would have to be the Broadsword.

    Bondarevski

    Just if anyone could quickly confirm this for me, I'm having a bit of trouble remembering the answer and my book copy of the "Heart of the Tiger" has gone missing. Did Jason "Bear" Bondarevsky captain any of the Victory's escorts in WC3?

    Wing Commander Marines News!

    I know in one Half Life mod called Wizard Wars(http://planethalflife.com/wizardwars), its possible to climb on dragons and fly them around shooting fire, if thats possible, it should be possible to fly a fighter around(although it probably wouldn't be as fast) Also, I think its great that I...

    Popular science fiction phases

    I forget their name, but this refers to Fleet Action. The Kilrathi were bulding their dreadnaughts on the opposite side of their space, the part not bordering the Confederation. It was space that used to belong to another species they had conquered long ago. This was an insectoid race(I...

    Books

    I couldn't find a single Wing Commander book in my local Barnes and Noble hear in New York. However I have four Wing Commander books, half of which I've bought in London, and the other half of which I've bought in Stockholm, Sweden.

    Popular science fiction phases

    My problem is that William Shatner's book, "The Return" brought himself back to life and and then killed all the Borg. Then First Contact came out and he was obviously still dead and all the Borg were still alive.

    Popular science fiction phases

    I meant those were the only actual books I owned. I never actually bought or read Action Stations or any of the other books I did not list. Not too mention, I bought WC3 in a scifi ship in Stockholm,Sweden(and I live in New York) needless to say some of these books were very hard to find...

    I dunno, I think he has like a pact going with Timothy Zahn, because I believe he is the one who originally named Coruscant and I heard Mara Jade is going to be in an upcoming movie(again, this is totally 100% rumor, Charlton Heston is more likely to appear as Yoda or something like that)...

    WC Movie on Sci-Fi?

    oh comon, the sets were not like on TOS. I wish I had a picture to show, but all of the screenshots on scifi.com were obviously done before postproduction

    so the Nephilum have interpersonal weapons, and not stuff that's naturally part of their body? (if that makes any sense)

    Hey, Anderson may have written some kiddie stuff, but there wasn't anything wrong with Darksaber. And the Jedi Academy trilogy was really good.

    "Flechette" guns

    I read the WC4 novelisation, if I recall the Flechette guns weren't guns that were armed on the fighters, they were hand held weapons the marines used. Its been a few years, so correct me if I'm wrong.

    Kilrathi vs. Terran ship design...

    I never ejected from WC2 onward. I ejected thousands of times in 1 and I cut down on the ejecting on WC2 because if you do it enough, Tolwyn sends you back to the system security station.
