The Art of Wing Commander Arena - Part Forty-Six (December 28, 2007)

The Free For All Space Station map was originally a lot more complicated - just study this map! It includes a whole host of complex concepts cut for budget and time. Gas? Turrets? Generators? Cool stuff!

now this one I like. it gives a good Idea of how they plotted out all the neat little hiding holes that actually appear in the game!

Wow, that's a lot of turrets. I hope they were planned to be destructible. And I'd really like to know what the Gas was supposed to be: damaging or just obstructing the view? Or maybe even healing / energizing. Or shields go down.
