    3rd Oxford Mission

    Speak to me, O Master, of how this may be done!

    3rd Oxford Mission

    fRuStRaTeD... (sigh) Okay. 50+ times trying to beat the 3rd Oxford mission, and still no luck. I put the game on Very Easy mode. Still no go. I swapped out for a Galaxy, hoping the increased turret coverage would help. Still no go. (And that brings up a question... Why can the Galaxy...

    No joy with my joystick

    Joystick Setup Dur. I feel bright, now. Thanks for pointing out what /should/ have been blindingly obvious. Maybe /now/ I can beat that blasted 3rd Oxford Mission!

    3rd Oxford Mission

    Oof. I've been trying two plasma cannons on the inside, two tachs on the outside, and a full load-out of proton torpedoes. With that kind of heavy-hitting hardware, I can usually blow two or three demons away in a heart-beat. The problem is that the computer keeps having five Demons already...

    Wing Commander Music Video

    The second version of this music video was the first such Wing Commander music video I've ever seen. I didn't even realize anyone was making them. (Hrm. Can anyone say 'nube'?) I LIKE! Where do I go for /more/! I couldn't download the first version, but the second version has me...

    Front Lines

    FanFic de Plywood Bra-VO. (Picture a French noble just prior to Le Revolution.) Some awesome work. Critical note: I found it hard remember you were changing viewpoints, but once I got the hang of it, it was good shtuf. Excellent work, and pray, continue -- when you feel like it. I...

    3rd Oxford Mission

    I was using the B&S Omni for autotracking, but the demons wobble erratically during a good deal of their attack phase -- and home in on the Drayman only at the end of the attack run. With the Centurion, you can't exactly try to follow the Demons out away from the Drayman, so I'm always stuck...

    Cap ships

    Lasers vs Everything If you outfitted a Paradigm (or any other capital ship) with nothing but lots of lasers, wouldn't that be just as dangerous as having the bigger guns? If you look at the rate of fire versus power draw for one turret with twin plasmas, against /how/ many turrets with lasers...

    No joy with my joystick

    What 'setup program'? There's a setup program? Where?! (peers around in his files) I've been trying to figure out how to go back in and edit my setup since I /installed/ the Remake, and haven't been able to figure out how or where! I really don't want to have to reinstall the whole game...

    Ship testing.... a comparison - Centurion - Demon Hunter - Orion

    "Run away!" -Sir Robin (whimper) Having been thoroughly trashed by Demons some three or four /dozen/ times in the third Oxford mission, I can honestly say I'm developing an intuitive understanding of the Demon. AI buggers aside, I feel like they have as much armor as a Drayman, shields that...

    Eden system -RF final mission?

    One-way ticket to hell? If the jump-point were left in as two way, but something particularly nasty for beginners was 'assigned to guard' the inside-point of the jump route..? Towards the point in the game in which you're exploring the Eden area according to the storyline, you have enough...

    Militia Paradigms?

    A paradigm on draymans... Wow. I can't believe I even read the thread all the way through, but I suppose that's one of those things that makes you realize you're addicted to the Wing Commander universe. From the nubie perspective, it all boiled down to one thing: Where da money come from...

    3rd Oxford Mission

    Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everyone has their piece to say on this mission. I've fun it over three dozen times, now (maybe four -- I've lost count) trying to beat it without cheating. The /closest/ I've come is beating the first wave of five back, and knocking down a few of the second wave of five...
