From the auction description
Set in the same universe as Descent, albeit in a different era, Descent: FreeSpace?The Great War represents another of Interplay's forays the space combat genre generally dominated by LucasArts and Origin...


Same universe?? I hadn't thought about that - I assume the Descent games come significantly prior to FS1...

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I think those extra missions are single-player versions of the gauntlets and the Templar campaign, but they have not been changed around at all for play balancing and so on. The rest of the missions are all available from the internet. (this is just what I have heard, as I don't have the SOTY edition)

Which set is that?


It's that truck I posted here a while ago; this one. :D

Ohhh, dang! I remember so well drooling over that truck's brother - the one with the flat front. This one:

Ah, the 5590 Whirl & Wheel Truck! I would really like to get that one as well since it looks neat and seems to have many useful pieces, but this item is a bit hard to find these days. (released in 1990 and discontinued in 1993) I don't have any Model Team stuff yet (at the moment my entire collection is Technic), but the 5571 Black Cat model seems to be very popular among Technic people as well and was recommended to me by several of them. :D

cool; that what I heard from other owners as well... :D (and since I am a total Technic fanatic, I think I must check this one out)
