New image for Wing Commander and other SF geekery. The Galaxy-class freighter from Privateer wins the prize for my favorite ship in terms of sheer prettiness ... too bad it moves like a cow.

Wheee!

...How offensive that a Galaxy Class Starship would have momentum issues: they're supposed to be the best ships in the fleet!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh, you're right. I had just run over that segment in my head (I have the album version of "Restaurant" memorized) and wasn't paying close enough attention to who was who. Just ran through it again, keeping closer track this time, and, yup: it's Ford. Take away my Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters for the day. :)

cheers,

The Galaxy was a good ship, compared to that PoS ship you start with, but not as hard to break as that 'Mac Truck' looking ship. I still like the Centurion myself. Its sleek. Its sexy. Its got all sorts of fun-guns it can have. Mmmm. Thats the big space station landing shot. Good shot of it too. Only annoying thing was everything outside looked like it was in a toilet bowl, being flushed as the station turned. ;)

If you could have hired gunners to man both
of turrets on that thing, it would be a
great ship. And such a roomy cockpit. :)

Sorry, you probably don't remember me, we
haven't talked to you in a long time, we
never talked all that much actually.
