| '''A Stand-Alone Game — No previous ''Wing Commander'' experience necessary.'''<br><br>
| |
|
| |
| As a student at the TCSN Academy, you custom-design and fly unique combat, rescue, and search and retrieval missions from the CyberSchool's holographic simulator. In the ''Wing Commander'' tradition, the game features a dynamic musical score, improved bit-mapped graphics, and a dazzling array of customizing options. But ''Wing Commander Academy'' is not another cinematic extravaganza — it's an intense dogfighting marathon.<br><br>
| |
|
| |
| * Custom-design a variety of missions that match your skill level as you place fighters, capital ships, mine fields, asteroid fields, data pods and ejected pilots - up to 10 in each of the four action spheres.
| |
|
| |
| * Save up to 24 games to disk and trade with your friends or upload them to bulletin boards to challenge others.
| |
|
| |
| * Request random missions where each action sphere yields an unknown number of enemy ships with pilots of varying skill levels.
| |
|
| |
| * Climb into the cockpits of the new Confederation ''Wraith'' or Kilrathi ''Jrathek'' fighters for a new combat experience.
| |
|
| |
| * Select a cybernet wingman — from a frightened cadet to a hotshot veteran.
| |
|
| |
| * Fly from the cockpit or try the chase plane view for a new perspective on the intense dogfighting action.
| |
|
| |
| * Sharpen your combat skills as you compete for high-point honors.
| |
|
| |
| * Engage the "Gauntlet" - a dogfighting marathon with 15 progressively difficult levels of attacking ships - including three flights of fighters in each level.<br><br>
