In looking over a few older posts, I saw LeHah and TC contributed some interesting background knowledge about the deleted scenes and subplots from the Wing Commander movie (can be found here: http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=6347)...
For those that don't feel like reading through it, my basic understanding is that through an encounter with a traitor, Blair loses his cross, so it has even greater impact later on when Paladin hands him his cross to give him the "faith."
Do we know what ever happened to Blair and Paladin's crosses (I realize this was a "newer" thing added into the movie that didn't exist in any of the games before it, but I'm wondering if information pertaining to these relics ever explained)? Did Blair ever get his mother's back? Did he ever give Taggart's back?
Also, am I right in understanding that the cross doubles as a dagger? Seems in some of the edited out parts, it might have actually been used as a last-ditch melee weapon? Or was it just a cheap piece of metal you could jab into things (like a metal spoon)?
