Prototype Art: Original WC3 Start Screen Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

The fact that Wing Commander III drops you in media res instead of having a start screen has long been cited as one of those brilliant immersive Chris Robertsisms. Well, here's the original start menu from an earlier build! Suggests you would've had the option to transfer your character from WC2.

The logo is pretty fascinating on its own! I suppose it's intended to be for the Victory but it reminds me of Blair's later (and similarly unexplained) nose art crest in the movie. I think we need to find a heraldry expert to think about both of these!
Another fascinating and rarely seen Wing Commander crest: the Wing Commander Academy (game) team shirt! Designed by the late, great Paul Steed. I dream of having one of these in my collection!
