Title: In Game Squdrons
Post by: Thor on July 27, 2002, 10:26:38 am

I was wondering if there is a list floating around that list all of the squadrons that have been seen in Freespace 1, FS2 and the Campaigns, etc.?  Anyone know?

This might be helpful to young campaign writers, like my self.  I'm getting better at this forum thing:nod:

Thor.  Anything quiet must be destroyed:headz: :snipe:

there used to be a list on the vbb, cause people who never played fs1 were asking if you were ever in the screaming weasles, cause it was in the bastion cbani... other than that, you'd probably have to search yourself...

In a mission I was designing to get validated by :v: I used the 91st squadron as a plot device. In my mission (which unfortunately was never completed, I couldn't work out all the bugs), you're a pilot for the 91st as they are being sent out to take a look at the juggernauts in Capella. You and your wingmen fly Pegasus stealth fighters and try to scan freighters and transports leaving a particular juggernaut only hours before the supernova. The problem comes in when your stealth tech fails to fool the Shivans...

Anyway, in this mission, I figured the 91st as a recon squad, so I named them the "91st Evil Eyes". ("Evil Eyes" seemed an appropriate name since it refers to a homemade curse that forever watches you and punishes you if you do something bad against the guy who hexed you. What better name for a recon squad? ;) )

I even thought up a simple squad patch for them: a simple black disc with a pair of glowing red human eyes set in the center looking straight out.

So if you need a name for the 91st, you got this suggestion: "91st Evil Eyes". ;7 :nod: :)
