Wing Commander Saga "The Darkest Dawn"*:

The flagship campaign of Wing Commander Saga, "The Darkest Dawn" * begins right before Wing Commander 3 and concludes with the ending of the Terran-Kilrathi War (whether or not the Terrans win depends on you)'

It has been six months since the Battle of Earth, and inspite of new fighters, carriers, and technology joining the Fleet, the war effort is not going well' Everyday, more news of fresh defeats and losses make their way around the Confederation Forward Fleet, who have to face the possiblity that they will not be the ultimate victors'

Markham is no different from the other young idealistic rookies who are determined to make a name for themselves' Already having your metal tested and your outlook hardened by your time on the Wellington, you still dream of flying heroic strike missions deep into the heart of the Kilrathi Empire, finally bringing this decades long conflict to an end'

But all hopes and dreams are squashed by the burden of reality' In every system, the Confederation forces are badly outnumbered and outgunned' For every Kilrathi fighter and warship destroyed, 10 others takes their place' Comms from HQ order the abandonment of civilian colonies which the Confederation no longer has any strength to defend' The retreat is downward spiral leading to the final stand at Earth' It won't be very long till Markham experiences what the true nature War really is ' ''

actually, she says "pretty sleek flying, Sir." But I'd rather vote for "The price of freedom is ethernal vigilence."

Well, first one that comes into my mind is "pretty nice flying style, Sir" said from pretty young rachel with a lovely smiling on her lips .....

what's a good catchline from Wing Commander. In Star Trek it is: "make it so" and "all power to the engines". In Galactica it is: "So say we all". n Star Wars it is: "May the force be with you!". I'm missing a great one line from Wing Commander, or in fact a nude scene from the young tia carrere.

Download the autolpilot demo, there you will see what we are going to change the autopilot towards (just like in the original). We will change the prologue to the same, but it will take some time to do so
