Enemy Cargo Ship Spotted

The Wing Commander Saga team has started a push to wrap up its capital ships as it makes progress towards an 'alpha' build. They've released shots of the Sha’kar transport from Wing Commander 3, featuring their most updated Kilrathi textures.

With its cheap and modular design, the Sha’kar-class transport can be configured to carry anything important to the Kilrathi war machine, including armaments, fuel, general supplies and personnel. Slow, under-armed, under-armored and susceptible to attack by even the lightest Terran fighter, these cannon fodder transports rely on fighters or other capships for protection.

Grab Some Privateer 2 Cinematics

March is winding down, so now's a good time to chew through some bandwidth. CIC Holovids is a great place to start. Tons of videos from prerelease trailers to deleted scenes to full game cinematics are available. One particularly neat area contains movies from Privateer 2. It includes most of the main plot videos (two notable exceptions are the intro and first Joe scene) and side plot cinematics in higher quality encodings. Our Holovid movie section also archives fan music videos, but so far there has only been one made for P2. Maybe this improved source material will help a few talented fans put something together!
