High Res Privateer 2 Schematic Map Online

Yesterday's documentation round-up included files for Privateer 2, but those particular files were somewhat poorly scanned. There are several versions of the P2 schematic map floating around on the net, but here's a nice high res one. It's a little big at 1800x1500 and 350k. Perhaps I'm overcompensating for all the low resolution scans I've seen over the years. Any basic graphic editing software or a copy & paste into Microsoft word will bring this to a size suitable for printing. The European Privateer 2 didn't come with this map originally, so it's a big help for some people's mission planning.

The Wing Commander Guide To Dating?

Delance and his active imagination put google and Wing Commander together and found one of AskMen's guides to dating. It uses some sort of crazy Wing Commander analogies to present its information. Fortunately it's not our Wing Commander, but it's terrifying nonetheless. You can find what Delance reads in his spare time here.

The first move you must make is to gather your squadron together. Because you located your woman first, you become the Wing Commander. The next step is for the Kamikaze Pilot to move in and start a conversation with the Girl-goyle of the group. The purpose of this step is to infiltrate and set up contact with the female group.
