They join Wing Commander III and the original Privateer which were already covered by the program. The system is vote-based, so get out there and show them that we want WC4, Prophecy and Secret Ops, Academy and Armada... added to a list? Cynics might call this 'supporting products they continue to actively sell' and those cynics would be right except that there seemingly haven't been any been any material changes made to these game packages. Some of them--Privateer 2 in particular!--have been in very bad shape for years and all of them have inferior configurations which have been endlessly documented by players and which could be easily fixed in minutes.
