Birthday Week Continues: Casper Releases CAG (August 15, 2004)

[ChrisReid]

CasperXJ has released version 1.0 of his "real-time tactical simulation" set in the Wing Commander universe. The idea has been in preparation for a long time, and Casper prepped a starter pack for our birthdaylast week.

​

The Wing Commander series has always focused on the combat pilot. "Wing Commander - CAG" places you instead in the seat of a Commander, Air Group,
responsible for several, perhaps dozens of fighters at once. It's Wing Commander on the next level. Four missions and dozens of ships and weapons are included with this v1.0 release. To play, you'll need a JRE (Java Runtime Environment) installed on your computer - go to http://java.sun.com for details. If there's any errors or crashes, contact me or post on
my forum - you can never have too many testers. Enjoy!

​

You can download the pack here (less than a megabyte). Don't forget that you also need the JRE installed as well.
