While AWAAP development is still paused, hope is at hands: "Bandits, coming in at eight o'clock high...break, break, break,........Gold Wing take those fighters, Natley and McArthur with me, we're going after the bombers....I'm going in on the leader.........got him! his starboard engine's burning up.....follow my lead men, tally ho!" ".......Damn it Gold Wing keep those fighters off us, I'm being torn to pieces......primary fuel lines been hit.....Jesus, keep them off me you bastards....those last two bombers aren't going to shoot themselves down....good God they've got the Bristol, her tanks have blown, she's going down!" A Wing And A Prayer is a total conversion for the Homeworld 2 engine, moving the action from space combat to early twentieth century aerial battles between a variety of fictional aircraft and airships, ranging from scout fighters up to ironclad super Zeppelins.

Description

Pirate ship – The Pirate ship is the standard
pirate airship, akin to the Pirate ships of old,
these craft sail the skies looking out for hapless
cargo zeppelins and cruise ships to plunder. A
true jack of all trades capable of building strike
craft, supporting resource operations and even
going head to head with enemy airships using its
two heavy turrets. It suffers from the same
weakness of most all rounder’s in that it
performs none of these roles to an exceptional
degree. Its true strength lies in relative
cheapness compared to the enemies much more
inflexible carriers, allowing Pirate commanders to
scatter Pirate ships across the map and wage a hit
and run war on the enemy.

Mercship – The Merc ship is the bigger brother
of the Pirate ship, bigger, better armed and with
improved onboard systems, the Merc ship is a
carrier first and combat airship second. While it
boasts double the armament of the Pirate ship it
is still hardly a match for the higher level
British or German airships. Merc ships tend to be
piloted by pirates who have made a good profit in
the air and have consequently upgraded their
weaponry.
