==Description==
[[image:wcpback.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Box Back Cover]]
 
''Wing Commander Prophecy'' is a computer game and a direct sequel to ''[[Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom]]''. It was followed by [[Wing Commander: Secret Ops]] in 1998.
 
'''''Wing Commander: Prophecy''''' pushed the cutting edge of technology with 3D accelerator cards. The game was designed for the 3dfx Glide technology which is no longer prominent, its use of 3d hardware makes it stand out in the graphics department many years after its release. The cinematic storyline focuses on young Lieutenant Lance Casey aboard the newly commissioned [[Midway-class heavy carrier|TCS ''Midway'']]. [[Military Ranks|Commodore]] [[Christopher Blair]] is overseeing the ship's maiden voyage when strange signals are detected from the [[Kilrah System]]. An alien fleet is pouring out of an artificial jump gate and seems to be fulfilling a [[Kilrathi]] prophecy about the end of the universe. Casey and company must halt the invasion force and learn more about their enemy to counter future incursions.

Description

Box Back Cover

Wing Commander Prophecy is a computer game and a direct sequel to Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom. It was followed by Wing Commander: Secret Ops in 1998.

Wing Commander: Prophecy pushed the cutting edge of technology with 3D accelerator cards. The game was designed for the 3dfx Glide technology which is no longer prominent, its use of 3d hardware makes it stand out in the graphics department many years after its release. The cinematic storyline focuses on young Lieutenant Lance Casey aboard the newly commissioned TCS Midway. Commodore Christopher Blair is overseeing the ship's maiden voyage when strange signals are detected from the Kilrah System. An alien fleet is pouring out of an artificial jump gate and seems to be fulfilling a Kilrathi prophecy about the end of the universe. Casey and company must halt the invasion force and learn more about their enemy to counter future incursions.
