    Hell fuckin' yeah!

    Hooray! This is fantastic news. Let us hope that this is the dawn of a new era in Wing goodness. What are you people talking about. Loaf has been saying that a show was in development, in not so subtle ways, for quite a while now. Now it's official ... and a great announcement.

    Border Worlds - Confed (Again!)

    I disagree, I'm pretty sure -- no, I'm confident-- that if Origin ever did make another game that their will be worse things then a Tiamat. That happens to most all game sequels. Of course they are going to make something better and cooler in the next game. Just as Confed will get new ships to...

    Is WC too arcade like?

    I agree with Corsair(pilot), the WCs have evolved beyond the point of being classified as an arcade game. The original game was pretty much an arcade game with a story, atmosphere, and characters. The series does, however, have arcade physics, but that is for a very simple reason of the...

    The real effects of a thermonuclear weapon

    Sadic, it was even worse than it sounds because the Kilrathi did not just use 500 megaton nukes (which would be bad enough), the warheads on these nukes were laced with Strontium-90 which turned the planets into redioactive wastelands. The Stronti was what did the real damage, the warheads were...

    The real effects of a thermonuclear weapon

    Most Wing weopons are not nuclear weapons, however. Particle cannons and Maceweapons being the exception. Heat and radiation seem to be a common effect of all there wepons, though. Also, We do not know how powerful there weaponry is compared to our nukes. Remember the Kilrathi used dozens...

    Abalative Armour

    A way had to be devised to save the hapless peons at the consoles;). It appears that the shields on Voyager channel the energy into the ships structure and dissipate it by generating sparks all over the bridge. Has there ever been an episode where the Voyager, after an attack, did not have...

    WC too glossy like Star Trek?

    Ok, You're about to get a heavy object thrown at you. Seriously, though, this topic has gotten quite off topic...what was the topic about again? WC being too glossy like Star Trek, that was it. A final reply to the original topic and a recap of what we know. Star Trek is definitely not glossy...

    Do you think it was correct that Confed destroyed Kilrah?

    Seventy-Five posts is neccesary to leave the ranks of cadethood. It's explained in the ranks addendum accesible in the upper-right of the screen by the registration, rules and the like. Depending on how much you post Some people do up the ladder quickly, others, like me, not so quickly. I have...

    Do you think it was correct that Confed destroyed Kilrah?

    I do not think that Confed and the Kilrathi will unite under a single government ... atleast for a while. I would not want that to happen, either. In sci-fi (the UFP, for instance) it seems humans always become the most important government and form the basis of the culture of all these...

    WC too glossy like Star Trek?

    Wong has some personality issues to deal with. Besides that, his main problem seems to to be that he will use science and logic only when they benefit his point. He then uses the same things to criticize. He is quite intelligent, however, but I think the problem is in his excessive extremely...

    Prophecy Game Play

    This might help, more than likely you probably hit the tilde key. This locks the afterburners. Simply hit the tilde again to return to normal flight. You do not have to fly the simulator missions with the default ships. Bombing is probably the only exception. Additionally, If you did not...

    How big....

    A long time ago I visited this site, and Iremember some idiotic fanfic posted here about some 40km long Concordia that had 200 anti-matter guns or something like that. Who remembers that, anyone remember who it was that was always posting ( ...always posting)about that story? It was quite hilarious.

    Do you think it was correct that Confed destroyed Kilrah?

    Thrakhath was in power, though, so it does not matter how many Kilrathi respected us. If we lost the war ... well ... we know what Thrakhath planned to do to us clownish baboons. Aonther thing, as I have said, I do not think it was so much the actual war (the combat) that tired them out. It...

    Scientific Properties of Durasteel

    But since this is tungsten armor, the tungsten could have been chemichally altered or modified. I really do not think that the manufactures would simply slap on plain old tungsten without making it as effective as possible. But I guess it could be plain tungsten since it isn't really important...

    Do you think it was correct that Confed destroyed Kilrah?

    The humans were the first species that gave them a long hard fight, so, I agree, they probably did begin to see the humans as equals. I see them as getting frustrated at fighting a battle that was not really getting anywhere. But they fought wars almost continously throughout their history...

    Scientific Properties of Durasteel

    But excluding itself, tungsten cannot be perfectly compared to any other element, alloy, substance, or known material( in that way), so why should we believe that it could magically compare with durasteel as a ratio of this much to this much when it cannot compare with anything else in such a...

    Scientific Properties of Durasteel

    I do not intend to ever leave a position undefended ... so ... it is logically provable by the simple fact that the two armors can be quantifiably compared-- this much of this is equaled to this much strength of this &c. There must be a standard frame of reference. Since durasteel is the...

    Do you think it was correct that Confed destroyed Kilrah?

    Ehh ... the Kilrathi were the ones who caused the war. The thing is, it is not like there are two groups of Kilrathi, the military Kilrathi that are vicious and wanted to conquer, and the civilian Kilrathi that were innocent bystanders who had a different viewpoint. The history of Kilrah is...

    Abalative Armour

    Star Trek Voyager, with all their super powerful crap( invented by one little crew) and nonsensical episodes, annoys me all together. Unless the shields generators were destroyed, the shields would handle a breach just fine. Yeah, Ablative armor could still be usefull, but unless you had an...
