This angers Flash who challenges Blair to a simulator duel. When Flash fails to respond to an attack on the Victory, willfully napping through the crisis, Blair accuses him of being a coward and repeatedly insinuates that he has no flying skills. Shortly after Blair's arrival, test pilot Major Jace "Flash" Dillon arrives on board the Victory with his prototype warcraft, the F-103A Excalibur heavy fighter. The Victory is assigned to the Orsini System, away from the front. Among those on board, Blair meets Lieutenant Robin "Flint" Peters and Chief Fighter Technician Rachel Coriolis. There are a few old faces-Colonel Ralgha nar "Hobbes" Hhallas, and Major Todd "Maniac" Marshall-but all the other pilots and staff are people Blair has never met. Her captain, William Eisen, has been with her for many years, and is proud of his ship.
Blair, by orders of Admiral Geoffrey Tolwyn, is transferred as Wing Commander to the TCS Victory, a Ranger-class carrier twice as old as Blair. It is the year 2669, and the Terran-Kilrathi War has been going for over thirty years, with no signs of stopping. On the planet Vespus, Blair and Brigadier General James "Paladin" Taggart inspect the downed wreckage of the TCS Concordia. One, however, is left alive: Blair's lover Colonel Jeannette "Angel" Devereaux, due to her status among the Kilrathi as a respected warrior. Thrakhath nar Kiranka, Crown Prince of the hostile Kilrathi Empire, presides over the execution by disintegration of a group of Terran Confederation prisoners of war. The protagonist of the previous two games is officially assigned a name, Colonel Christopher Blair. Blair's own call sign remained customizable. As in Wing Commander, some wingmen can be killed permanently in combat. As the man giving the orders, Blair often gets to choose what ship he will fly, what missiles it will carry, and what wingman (wingmen) he will take with him.
Gameplay involves completing missions and destroying enemy craft, Wing commander III dispensed with the issuing of medals after such missions and relied more on cutscenes to drive the story along making much more use of CD technology. Seriously I think Academy was kind of set in its own alternate universe, but then sorta jammed into the continuity later on (but kind of haphazardly).Wing Commander is a space combat simulator intercut with live action cutscenes.

Most of those sources have Blair and Maniac graduating before WC1, yet in the academy series they are still 'cadets'. A different account of Maniac and Blair's academy days than was given in Wing Commander Academy game manual, the Kilrathi Saga Manual, and suggested in the Wing Commander 1 & 2 Ultimate Guide, among other sources. But its still not without its problems in continuity errors.įor example contradictory information on who was the captain of the Tiger's Claw during that period. However Star*Soldier places it more or less concurrently with WC1.

Have I forgotten any installment in the story? Thanks! Old post, but I just wanted to comment that Academy tv series actually was originally set in 2655 a year after Wing Commander despite have ideas that would suggest that it's before. Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedomįrom what I've read Wing Commander: Privateer, the Righteous Fire Expansions pack, Privateer II, Wing Commander Academy Game, Wing Commander Arena, Wing Commander Armada and the Wing Commander motion picture don't have anything to do with the main story. Wing Commander II: Vengence of the Kilrathiħ. So far I know that the following things take place (In this order:)Ĥ. I really enjoy it but I realize that its pretty plot driven and I should start from the beginning. BobBlusoe: I've wanted to really get into this series for a while, and have played a couple hours out of a couple of the games.
