    Kilrathi vs. Terran ship design...

    There was paint. The hellcats and Longbows both had yellow stripes. The Excaliber was a darker grey than the other fighters, although that may have been the hull and not paint. I don't recall what the Victory was painted at this time, but I believe she did have paint on her somewhere. I'm...

    Is there something I'm missing...

    Me and most people on Long Island. :) Anyway, I don't know if a MP add-on really goes with Wing Commanders style. Judging by what I've seen in games like Freespace and Xwing vs Tie Fighter, Multiplayer games are mostly free for all melees. That doesn't really stick with the spirit of Wing...

    ehh, I'll see if they got em at the library, I'm just afraid it'l be a kid book like the old Young Jedi Knights books were.

    Nasty!

    What you've described was the Queen from Aliens to a tee. However, why do insectoid species from outer space have to be similar to insectoid species on Earth. Why should they be structured in hives just because they have an exoskeleten. Why can't they have mommies and daddies instead of...

    Kilrathi vs. Terran ship design...

    Well, I know this probably is a moot point and has nothing to do with design; but Terran ships have perty colors. Seriously, Terran ships tend to have a green color scheme(although other colors can get thrown in, remember the Epees?) and Kilrathi ships tend to have a orange color scheme.

    Ahh yes, the New Jedi Order series. I had seen them in the store. I noticed they were by Michael J. Stackpole, whom I really liked in the X-Wing Series(Aaron Allston was ok). Also Stackpole wrote the book "I, Jedi" which was great and as far as I know, the only First Person perspective star...

    OK Here's a zinger... Which is longer and by how much?

    Personally, when I play flight sim games, I never bother putting anything on an actual scale, I just note if something is small, big, really big, or very big; and either than that, the only time I really use measurements is I always check which range I'll be able to shoot people at. I hate...

    Nasty!

    Which Prophecy guide would this be. I'm just asking because I know very little about Prophecy since I bought it several years after it was released.

    WC Movie on Sci-Fi?

    If you watch the DVD, they interview the director. He says they scouted out locations in Tunisia, but decided not to for several reasons(although the foremost was $$$$$) and decided to shoot the exterior scenes in a sound stage instead. Although you complain they look bad, I didn't think...

    WCI returning soon

    basically I mean the same as stuff in movies nowadays. You can curse, but you can't say f*ck. You can have sexual inuendos, but you can't describe anything in to much detail. You can describe someone being stabbed or shot, but you can't descibe someone who's being jammed through a very large...

    Popular science fiction phases

    i've read alot of Star Wars novels in my day, and I never recall hearing any species called Yuzhong Vong(sp). As for the Zerg from Starcraft, thats my point entirely, the Zerg are recent. A lot of people came up with some great example I never knew about, but most of what you said isn't...

    Popular science fiction phases

    Is it just me, or did popular sciene fiction enter a phase a few years ago of biotechnology. It used to be everything was wires and plugs. Good old fasioned durasteel or whatever metal a particular show/book/movie/game used. Then starting with Babylon 5, biological technology became all the...

    Nasty!

    Yeah, its a giant bug, its just I'm seeing some subtle shapes in there and being as vague as I possibly can, Im seeing things I don't want to see. Btw, this isn't the same bug that Blair fights in the ending cutscene, is it? If it is, the one he fought worked out a lot more. Otherwise, I...

    WCI returning soon

    It brings up a good question. I know I want to keep certain elements out to maintain the agelevel somewhere around pg-13, but shjould I keep certain elements out to keep the maturity level above G? I don't know because I'd probably have to prosecute myself if I did so

    Can you give more information on what your plans are? MP and SP.

    Nasty!

    Does anyone else find the pictures of the Nephilum Queen strangely nasty, yet not know why? I'm not talking about the fact her head looks like the saucer section of the Enterprise, there's just something about that that just doesn't seem kosher.

    It's about time they tried Half-Life

    I would've gladly assisted anyone on a Halflife mod if I had any knowledge of anything to do with the game outside the game. But what is IIRC? Some sort of IRC client?
