Blast From the Past, Part 8 (June 9, 2003)

[Cpl Hades]

Do you have the July 2000 issue of PC Gamer? It was one of the greatest issues of any magazine for WC stuff since not only did it have an interview with Chris Roberts, it also included the full version of Kilrathi Saga's WC1 on the cover disk! Thanks to WildWeasel, we can now offer you scans of the WC articles in that issue.

​

Originally, I was trying to come up with a name for the aliens mankind was going to be fighting in my new space game, Squadron (which became Wing Commander). Finally, after a long night at work I gave up, putting a placeholder in. It was created because I saw these aliens as killing with wrath... Kill... Wrath... Kilrath... I tacked on a "i", wrote down Kilrathi and decided it would do until I came up with a real name.
