Tcs Lexington

Eh, it's arguable that it's an intense refit after WCA... I go with the two carriers viewpoint, myself.
 
AFAIK, they're separate. The 'official' line is supposed to be that both carriers destroyed each other in WCA.

WCA: Lexington class
WC4: Concordia class
 
It's clearly explained in the WCIV novel...

The TCS Lexington from WC4 is the same as the TCS Lexington from Fleet Action. The Armada one is different.
 
I live in Australia too.
The best place that I can think of to get Wing Commander books is from Amazon.com
of course, then you get the hefty import fee.
 
I don't think so, as a lot of book stores are very good about importing in books for you. My advice would be try both the big chains (Dymocks, Books n' More) and the specialty stores that stock mainly SF/Fantasy books. I was able to get all the WC books that way in NZ, apart from End Run which I had to order from the States directly.

Yea, ya cannot pass up END RUN. That book started me on the Wing Commander series like 6-7 years ago and I haven't looked back since. WOW....that was a page turner. :D
 
Hey, guys, it's even more difficult to find WC novels in France... well, there aren't any translation, so I had to buy them through amazon.com... and for english is not my first language, it's pretty hard to read...

Think Belgian or German people here have the same problem...

There are German translations of most of the books... (I believe there's also at least one or two French translations).
 
The Lex sure had a good service record (the WC4 vessel). I didn't know about the Wing Commander Armada carrier, but IIRC there are vessels of other types also named the Lexington scattered throughout the WCU.

As far as the books, well at one point in the past, End Run, Fleet Action, and the WC3 novel were the most often seen on bookshelves. I had to order everyting else, and I sure was glad I did!:)

Amazon.fr gives only results for books in English (Freedom Flight, Fleet Action, False Colors, and The Price of Freedom ). Myself, never saw a French edition of a Wing Commander novel...

Which novels are you talking about and where did you see them in French?

Grugh. It's enough of a headache keeping track of all the Concordias floating around in the WCU :(

POP QUIZ! State all designations of vessels bearing the names of Concordia and Lexington. (teacher's note: bet you can't do it, punk. MWUHOOHAHAHA!!)
