Q, I got the same deal for a dollar more and got Proph Gold plus a copy of Armada.

The world is divided into 2 types of people:
The ones that have an original copy of the Kilrathi Saga, and the ones who don`t.
Watch out Murphy!

Ahhh, KS. I got it as soon as it was out, and even didn't have win95 at time! (That's why I made the biggest mistake of my life and installed it. For you see, I already had WC 1,2,3 and 4 for DOS, but nooooo, just had to see it in the "new windows" edition!).
Anyway, MH, do you need a copy of WC4? 'cause I think I might have 1 I don't need (I'm almost sure I do
). For you see, I had a nice copy of WC3 once, but after I've finished the game for the first time, the 4th disk just wouldn't work anymore (I think it was a bit scratched or something, I donno). Some time passed, and I got myself WC4, and found another copy of 3 somewhere. However, WC3's disks were damaged, so I sent the company which brought it here a letter and the game itself. In returen, I got another copy of WC4! I kept it and sent them another letter. For that letter I got yet another copy of WC4, and another damaged copy of 3 (it appears that the company had a bad shiftment of WC3 in which all disk were bad
). I've found a second hand copy of WC3 in perfect condition (one that was directly brought from the US so it even had the original manual and not some s*** translated thing with nothing in it). So anyway, I had 3 copys of 4 - one of them I gave away, one I've kept for myself, and I'm pretty sure I still have the third, so if you want it (and if I still have it), it's yours

It's unfortunate that copies of Wing Commander are no longer under production. I've been looking for second-hand WC for a long time now in and around my area (like lots of people, I got it when it came out, past it, then sold it/it got destroyed throughout time).
Now... if I only new the phone number/address of a company who DOES have copies of them left, I would be very happy

Gee, thanks Hero, it`s a shame I already ordered it from CDaccess.com.
If it`s a 95 version I`d be glad to take it off your hands though.
BTW, where do you live? I`m in Ra`anana.

Well, it's a good thing you did, I can't find it (I know I have it somewhere the question is where :confused
.
Anyway, it's a DOS version of the game (I don't think that they bothered making a new version just for win95), and I myself find it to run better on DOS from within windows then from using the patch. Now, my DOS didn't have CD drivers till resently (thanks to Stinger and the other guys down there at the Tech support lobby!
), so I couldn't play the game. Maybe now it'll work better on win98 then on DOS...
And as for your question, I live in a small villige/town near Gedera, a part for the Gdert setelments. A really nice place to live in may I add

Damn unfortunate. I've been lucky to find as many WC games as I have. Prophecy Gold was easy enough, considering I got it in early June of '99. I also got WC2, WC3, Privateer, and Privateer 2 each for less than ten bucks. PSX WC4 was cheap to find, too. Once, a while back, I did have both Academy and Armada in my possession, but I could not get them to work on my computer and my mom made me return them to the store. It was heartbreaking...

The where to buy section has the best places to start... local used software/computer stores are good for the old ones... That's how I now have a bunch of different WC1 and 2 versions.

Oh, I have a friend who lives in "Gedera" and another one in "Moshav Bnaya". Nice places, both of them, but pretty far away from almost any large city.

I personally don't have WC:KS (I'm perfectly happy playing them all in DOS
) No one actually needs to get KS unless they know nothing about DOS and are unable to follow instructions.
