For this weeks update, we would like to round off our presentation of Wing Commander 2 Confed fighter models created by Klavs and highlight his rendition of the Sabre! The Sabre was one of the best heavy fighters ConFleet put into service during the late 2650's, matching well with the Jalkehi and the Gothri. In addition to its dogfighting ability, its attack ability was so commended that a modified torpedo bomber variant was constructed for the escort carrier class. Both variants proving their mettle in the bloodiest of conflict, all Sabres were retired by the Thunderbolt VII and put into active reserve wings and In System security units as their defacto strike fighter-bombers.

I don't want to spoil anything, but I have to say that the appearance of WC2-capitalships wont be very strong presented. We have taken some fighters in for continuity purpose and because we were able to update them to fit with the rest, but that's quite harder with capitalships, so you will see only a few of them. Which ones, I don't want to tell yet :-)

Great model of a great fighter. Textures are good as well the amount of detail like warning notes and insignia has been well made. I do have one question looking at the amount of 'older' fighters being present in the game and that is: will there be also older capital ships (civilian or military)? Ships like the Gilgamesh or the Confederation class. Looking at how Confed state was in the last years of the war it seems highly likely to see some of those older ships. But then again it should depend on the combat theatre you as player are at.

Cheers and good luck.

I keep saying this mod is great and you prove me right with ever update. It is even greater than great - and its standalone. I'm very impressed by your work and the way you improved upon Wing Commander Series, without losing the feeling for the series. Good work, as expected!

Happy day!

When's the beta coming out? I played the prologue and it was excellent down to the story and everything!

Sorry, even if we make big progress in all areas of the mod, an ETA isn't really forseeable, but we do as fast as we can :-)

I think we will make a limited open beta-test again when we are done (just like we did with the prologue), but it'll take a while.

good, thanks for replying. I don't mind waiting for this game and you can be sure I'll give it a thorough testing at any time.
