    GoG WC II Control problem.

    I move about a lot so I don't use a joystick and when I use the keyboard, the guns don't work when I manoeuvre with the arrow keys. The mouse sometimes works, but then sometimes it only rolls the fighter. Any ideas?

    Major victory in Standoff?

    I think it's safe to assume that the Kilrathi adopt some kind of meatgrinder policy with its pilots, going for quantity over quality, after all that's how all evil empires fight right?:D

    Major victory in Standoff?

    Good ideas Mancubus, I agree that with Confed being less desperate ideas of attacking Kilrah directly with 4 fighters would be shelved. The war therefore lasts longer. However I'm less certain about what happens post war so I'll address the political developments & so on in a later update...

    Major victory in Standoff?

    Ok I've had a look at some of the comments and I've decided to continue this timeline. I'll post, read suggestions and then have another post to advance the storyline etc. Bradshaw & Co do get their couple of days of R & R while the senior officers in the fleet take stock of the situation...

    Major victory in Standoff?

    I believe the general consensus is that the middle or minor victory ending in Standoff reflects the situation at the end of the novel on which it was parly based and, by extension, the official continuity of the Wing Commander series. So I've been thinking of possible scenarios for a follow...

    Chapter 7: Settling in. The transition to the Mylon system proved to be a dissapointment for Whippet squadron and the rest of the taskforce, Ghazi's brush with the corvette proved to be the only action the squadron would see in Gimle. Shortly after the completion of the recon mission, a pair...

    Strike with Daring, Episode 1: Incursions.

    Chapter 5: The Joust As Barrington had come to expect from the similator missions, the three Kilrathi fighters fired the afterburners the moment they had identified his craft. So far so predictable he thought, what escaped his notice was that the furthest contact "Squire, looks like these...

    this game, WC Saga, and the truth

    Until this week I had no interest in the Saga project whatsoever because I assumed it would mean having to by Freespace 2, although now I know it's going to be available as a standalone download you don't need any other game for (beat that Standoff & UE) and having seen the quality of the...

    Strike with Daring, Episode 1: Incursions.

    Chapter 2: Introductions A pair of booted feet clumped up to Barrington's table as the smoke cleared and the bar was now as full and noisy as if nothing had happened. He looked up warily. "Blimey you look like you've seen a ghost, Jim Larkin, Whippets, mates call be Larks." The stocky...
