I've been playing around with learning some interesting capabilities of Microsoft Excel, and in order to try them out I've created a fun little Wing Commander themed application that I thought would be good to share with the community.
Back when I was a kid, there was a great flight combat game called Chuck Yeager's Air Combat. It was a flight combat simulator for WWII, Korea, and Vietnam and lots of fun. One of it's features was a "plane comparison application"--you could basically pick any two aircraft in the game, and it would show you their pictures and a side-by-side comparison of their stats, highlighting which was better at what. Chuck Yeager would also chime in with some sage advice for the best tactics to use if you were in one of the aircraft facing the other.
I thought it would be fun to create something like that for Wing Commander. So I did. I've made it for the WC1 ships, and I'd love to share it with the community and get some feedback on it.
However, I'm not entirely sure how to go about doing that. I don't actually have any web hosting space myself, so I can't just upload it to a place that everyone can download it from, and I can't attach it to this post because (1) it's too big (about 4.2 MB), and (2) these forums don't allow attachment of Excel files...just pictures and Word documents, as far as I can tell.
So, any suggestions on how to share it?
