Damn, you're right! No wonder I couldn't remember that shot! I always wondered what that background could be, but I never would have recognized the Scimitar (I blame the blue tint). Ah, too bad, it's a great image. Now I'll just have to look for a simple screenshot of Bluehair saluting. Anyway...

Hi guys! Ridiculously long time, no see (not that I have been tremendously active in here even back then), but since "Wing Commander" will become 25 this year (which prompted me to visited the games once again), and I'd love to make a little special for the german webpage...

Thanks, I didn't know that. Well, since I've read all the other novels in their german translation, it wasn't really obvious for me ;), but it might explain why I thought "False Colors" to be written uninteresting, boring and dry. Dunno, it's been a while since I've read the novels; maybe I...

Aaaaah... thanks! Guess I downloaded them back then, but since I've got 2 new PC's since then they got lost. Thanks for the advice :)

I agree on Freddie Prinze Jr., but other than that, I beg to differ. Yeah, when I first saw the movie I was shocked on how different everything looked, and to this day I'm not very pleased with the new look of the Kilrathi. But since I know the reason behind those new designs I cannot blame the...

Ah, the memories... For a while, I didn't have a computer, but went over to a friend and watched him play WC1 and 2. It may sound boring, but I assure you I found it extremely exciting at the time. To find out the story together with him, help him out on a mission, shout at him "there's a...

After watching the movie about a week ago I really felt the urge to play the games again. So I just installed KS on my 32bit Vista, and the game (WC1) seems to work fine. Even the speed seems to be ok. Now I've read in this forum that there's a problem with Vista concerning the Secret...

I'm sorry to say that I disagree. I've read all the Wing Commander-novels, with the expection of "Pilgrim Stars", and I think False Colors is by far the worst. I really hated how Forstchen was repeating the same storyline and message over and over (the military is always right, and all...

Small mistake here. He directed "Return of the Jedi", not "The Empire strikes back". HAVE A NICE DAY Heart of the Tiger

Didn't you write something similar yesterday on this board??

Hmm... well, I don't know, but doesn't it sound a little bit unlogical to first ask the fans what they would think of a Wing Commander TV show and then after a positive response ignore them?? I think, Sci-fi-shows in the past have shown how important a loyal fanbase is. If I were CR, I wouldn't...

Jason Bernard has died a couple of years ago, so it won't be possible to get him for the TV-Show. What I prefer would be a Show that tells the story of the games. Start with a pilot in the WC1-era, after Blair is assigned for the TCS Tiger's Claw. You could end the first half of the season...

You forget that the Emperor wasn't very popular on Kilrah even before the failed attempt to destroy earth (as described in "Fleet Action"). Many Kilrathi were tired of the war, and with the new threat of the mantu on the other side of the Kilrathi empire, there were many Kilrathi who thought...

That's a very interesting poll. I've chosen "no", because I think that destroying Kilrah was not the only option. Actually I had the same idea like Zim: Kill the Emperor (and probably also his heir Trakath)! As far as I know (from the games and the novels), the Emperor had many foes within the...

*sigh* Please, guys... That's exactly why I putted the word secret under those little quotations "... ". I know that's it's not a good expression for this kind of mission, but I couldn't think of a better term, that's why I've chosen "secret". I APOLOGIZE! Could we now PLEASE all move on...

Exactly! Well, sorry, probably it was wrong to call it a "secret" mission. But would you agree that it wasn't a regular mission? However you like to call it: I guess that many WC-Fans missed it the first time they played WC3, and it wasn't part of the 'regular' missions, which I think is a...

Not that I know ;) Fact is: If you play WC 3 and you win all the missions, you'll never have to take out this asteroid base. Well, at least not in the WC3-game I played ;)

Hi! Just wanted to know if you've ever played the "Secret" Mission within WC3, and how you liked it. I'm talking about the mission where you have to take out a kilrathi asteroid base. I always thought this mission really kicked ass, and I never could understand why they kind of "hided" it...

I don't think that WCP had a bad plot (while I have to admit that I liked the plot of 2, 3 and 4 more), but it just did too less to draw me in. The keyword is CUTSCENES! I never really could identify with Casey. I missed the interaction between the characters, like esp. in WC 3 and WC 4. There...

I have to admit that I never really got into WCP. Yes, the graphic was great, but where was the story?? I never felt really involved (which got even worse after seeing Blair, I just thought: THAT'S ME! *gg*). All the other games (except the first one, but hey, that's a classic anyway;) ) hat...
