Summary/Description of Mod
Awakening of the claw is set shortly after the events of Wing Commander 4. The systems of Toshi, Fargo 7, Tarson, and Iceni are heavy in Pirate activity, and the BWS Silver Star, a modifed Durango, and her escorts are sent to quell the Pirates and patrol the systems for any other activity. You play Lieutenant Davis, a relatively new pilot for the Border Worlds. As Lieutenant Davis, you meet new friends, battle enemies of old as well as new ones, and are immersed into a thick plot of mystery and blood lust. Awakening of the Claw promises to deliver action packed missions, a good storyline, and memorable characters.

The computer game which supplies the background world in which Wing Commander Saga: the Awakening of the Claw is set is the all-time bestseller. We believe that familiarity with either one of the games (Wing Commander 1-4) or one of the novels (preferably False Colors) will intensify enjoyment of the Awakening of the Claw.
