I used to plax XWA and I had 17.5 SSD model, and it was cool, with 8 shield generators, 2 or 3 huge interconnecting hangars and more that i cant remember. It took a few fucking minutes to fly past it.

But now I can't play because my fucking brother broke my joystick :evil:

Long time ago.

Of all of them liked TIE Fighter the best, though XWA had one of the better pay-offs(Playing the MF in the best of space battles).

As for ranking, finished them all(well the B-Wing expansion for XvT)...fun games if not the funniest overpowering in a while(always loved watching my little TIE kick the crap out of a Mon Cal)
MM /CF/WG/BOTM/JL/Original Warsie/ACPATHNTDWATGODW FOREVER!!

Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all

I beat both X-Wing and TIE Fighter (and their respective expansions) on the highest difficulty levels and got all possible awards on both. I think I was the Emperor's Reach in TIE Fighter, and I had a nicely decorated uniform in X-Wing.

Nope not us. Matt, one of the XWAU members, has one, but it's the original XWA model resized. I think he will eventually have his much better version of the SSD - sometime between now and when we land on Mars.
Twas on Ace Antillies site,

Yup, just checked. It's there.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
