...now that gave us an idea!
"I was going to become a speed dealer. If one stupid fairytale turns out to be total nonsense, what does the young man do? If you answered, “Wake up and face reality,” you don’t remember what it was like being a young man. You just go to the next entry in the catalogue of lies you can use to destroy your life." - John Dolan

 
EXPLANATION OF THE EXPLOSION PIC:
on board some random destroyer, the man in charge of the cargo bay says: i love explosives and the smell of fresh gasoline in the morning
he then lights his cigarette, drops it, and Alpha 1 gets to be in the middle of a very interesting incident.

An explosion like this happens to the Shivan Comm device. Must be something related to the linked usage of the Kamikaze flag and the Special Explosion option.

or

An infyrno-type warhead.

From what I can see from that picture(too) is that you will be using the predecessor(<-- after all these years I am still not sure I can spell this word correctly) of the Interceptor, the Crossbow.
You know, the crossbow was the original name for the Harpoon.

By the way: Why did not you post this screenie in a new thread? From now, nobody will be discussing the first picture. So it is basically hijacked from the original topic of Mystery picture #01

[20th EDIT] I seem to have written a long post. :)

Both assumptions you made are wrong. :)

And since no-one seemed to consider the first one a mystery image (although it is - you can figure out why if you know what TVWP chapter 1 is about) it'll be this one.

Yes, but the Crossbow doesn't have anything to do with the Interceptor in our current naming scheme. They might have used that name later on again, but this is too early for any Interceptor predecessors :D

actually the second has given me an idea for a cool beam effect.  is green (0, 255, 0) transparent in effects as well?  I think it would be....so by using different tiles you could have those things "moving" as in a particle accelerator beam.  anyway...good job TVWP guys.  both pics rock.

I don't think that's the mustang in the first pic.  i don't feel like checking, but was the cockpit in the mustang more rounded than that?  If you've read the X wing series then you know what an "ugly" is.  The mustang looked to be inspired by a TIE fighter cockpit and Y wing nacalles.  Loosely inspired by it, but that's what it reminded me of, i don't think that's a mustang in pic 1.  That being the case...there is a mystery in pic 1.

that 2nd pic is of a multi-star system. i can tell because those orb things are the same graphics as used for the binary star system in the first pic. i cant believe nobody saw this.
