Title: FreeSpace Fans ...
Post by: BengalTiger on October 15, 2025, 06:12:05 pm
... are making this game.

At 1:40 - Lancer, Cuirassier and Cataphract. All 3 are names I use for the Tiigran-Merisst bombers (to be released in the not very well specified SOON)
At 2:25 - a Shrike fighter is presented, although it looks different from the FS Open one.

Or is it all a coincidence and am I just going crazy?

That looks like a really cool game, indeed...

But you might need a bit more evidence.  A "Shrike" is a bird of prey, so it's a very plausible name for a space fighter.  That's how I came up with the name for it, anyway.
