Wing Commander: Unknown Enemy

[No Regret]

Pedro: the only reason I was asking is because I was supposed to do one of the voices and was wondering if I'd get the chance to do them before I turn 30

A lot of training ships are either scrapped or scuttled.

Maybe the Intrepid could be used to lure the bugs into a trap. Or the Intrepid is programmed to follow a course leading the bugs away from an combined invasion force, and as the bugs hit the intrepid, the fleet strikes. Just some ideas I came up with in a few seconds.

 

[Death's Head]

Pedro, if you think the training ending sucks, you should see the dark counter-insurgance ending.

 

[Quarto]

...Or it has been dispatched to serve as a transport for the fighters off the BWS Dauntless, which is, after all, heading to the scrapyard. I think that's the most likely answer

.

 

[Pedro]

Keep coming up with those ideas Quarto

Looking forward to seeing your first drafts.

 

[Quarto]

Yes... ideas are never a problem. It's writing them down, and then ironing out all the inconsistencies that's problematic

. But I'll get around to it soon enough...

 

[Earthworm]

Or because of the lack of any real military, the Intrepid is still in use, as it's not the only *old* ship in the BW inventory. Personaly thogh, I'd love to see some Rangers in the game.

 

[Death's Head]

Not the worst idea, EW. They never did say where all those Rangers went to. Be a shame to waste such a "classic design".

 

[Quarto]

Classic. Right.

But yeah, why not? They are utter junk, after all

. What I'm concerned about is what ships will Confed use. Is there a Concordia (class - as in, the Lexington) for SO?

 

[Death's Head]

Just have Ducky enlarge a Ranger for ya.

 

[Quarto]

Do they look exactly the same, though? I wouldn't want to cheat the way WC designers usually did

.

 

[Death's Head]

As far as I know, basically they are. They even have the same number of turrets from what I recall. Problem is if you're making your own ship, you may only get a maximum of 6 turrets. I really don't see the point in making a whole new class ship that is only slightly larger, other than that identical to a Ranger. Sure there are more fighters, but you'd think they would build a far better ship.

 

[snuzzleducky]

it could be done pretty easily, making a a ranger and a concordia. could usedifferent mats even if you want them to look different. and the six turrets isn't that much of a problem with some good placement and weapons choice. i couldn't do it completely myself, but between killer wave and i, we seem to be able to do most of the stuff we set our minds to.
