    Star Wars: Empire At War Mod?

    I don't know anything about modding, but a WC mod for that game would be great as the demos for the game look beautiful. Hopefully, it would be possible to seperate the space battle portion of the game and mod it as there's not much to base a WC mod of ground combat off of.

    WC fans are Republicans?

    Good topic. I've always considered the WC universe slightly right-leaning, if only because of the negative portrayal of the 'doves' in Confed in the novels. I'm by no means an expert, though, and could be wrong. And for what it's worth for the running tally, I'm a liberal, registered...

    Animal Precinct

    I can't watch this show, but I'm glad it's on and people watch it. Cruelty to animals (including farm animals) is horrendous.

    Crazy Nazi Kitten Impaler!

    hmm...NO. Would it be okay to make jokes about 9/11 in a couple years? It's been a few years since the Oklahoma City bombing, let's joke about that, or Pearl Harbor. How about lynching jokes? Or maybe some Andrew Shepherd jokes. I'm trying really hard not to preach, but when you make...

    My favorite WWII movie

    This is the problem with getting to a thread like this late, most of the movies have already been talked about. My three favorite war movies/miniseries would be "Patton," "Battle of the Bulge," and "Band of Brothers." I agree with whoever said BoB was far superior to "Saving Private Ryan." The...

    Confederation at War

    There really isn't. The only people I can think of in the fan community who would really have a need to determine what is and is not canon would be people who are creating new facets of the Wing Commander story. (i.e. people making games, mods, writing fan fictions, RPGs, and so forth) It would...

    Confederation at War

    You're absolutely right in regards to Lucas and the WCU. There was never any official leveling of canon. The system I described is simply what I use in justifying inconsistencies to myself. One of these days, you'd think that the creators of a sci fi franchise (obsentsibly being sci fi fans...

    Questions and things

    Going off this, then, you can't really assume that Eisen is dead because there is a TCS Eisen, although it would seem to be a safe assumption since I'm guessing that was the Wing Commander team's tribute to Jason Bernard. While on the subject, though, maybe someone more familiar with the...

    Confederation at War

    The way I've always dealt with the canon is to seperate it in levels. If you're familiar with how LucasArts treats the Star Wars franchise and the Official Expanded Universe, that's what I'm talking about. Going off the LucasArts model, I would think that Level One canon would be the games...

    order of titles (admiral sir tolwyn etc)

    Yeah, every time I've seen a military Doctor write his name below his signature, it's always: Rank Name, M.D./D.D.S./whatever

    Questions and things

    1. Yeah, it did. It really seemed to make Blair unsympathetic in regards to his personal loss, but it wasn't nearly as creepy as when he goes after Sosa in the WCIV novel. 2. Hmm...probably a cat, but only if it is a genetically enhanced cat. 3. Considering that there is a TCS Eisen in...

    Confederation at War

    It's been well established throughout the canon that the Concordia-class Fleet Carrier was around at the beginnings if not before the beginning of the war. The TCS Concordia you see in Wing Commander II is not a Concordia-class ship. It is, instead, a Confederation-class Dreadnaught. As has...

    Blair's role in the Battle for Earth?

    Wow... And talking about Blair's position on the all-time Ace list, I believe that the Prophecy guide states that Blair was the highest ranking Ace to spend the majority of his career after Custer's Carnival, and the Blair and Maniac are the only two Aces in the all-time top 20 (or something...

    Wc1- First Impressions

    Yeah, Corsair's right. The Tiger's Claw was an old ship by WC1. It was around as far back as 2644, ten years before the events of WC1.

    If that gave you audio only, you probably just need to get the latest DivX codec. (then again, I'm an idiot when it comes to computers. ;))
