Which Scottish island is the same shape as a Plan View of the Aten?

The thread! It has a purpose!

Anyway, name the 6 warships from the original Single Player FS gauntlets (this'll take a while) :ha:

I don't recall the name, but the Eisenhower was destroyed by a Typhon-class ship. Perhaps it was called the Typhon.:p

Here's my trivia question:
How many Anubis fighters are in the second mission of FS1?
16:46   Quanto   ****, a mosquito somehow managed to bite the side of my palm
16:46   Quanto   it itches like hell
16:46   Woolie   !8ball does Quanto have malaria
16:46   BotenAnna   Woolie: The outlook is good.

Perhaps it was, since IIRC the destruction of the Eisenhower was the GTA's first encounter with the Typhon

12. Four wings of 3 isn't it?

Okay my turn.

On what operating system other than Windows can you play FS1 natively (i.e without needing to use an emulator or somesuch).

Bonus question (harder). What are the processor requirements to do so?

Nope. I meant the requirements to play without using Windows. You have to know the answer to the first one for that :D

Please give us a question about the WORLD of Freespace, too. Only the one can know the answer for this one who could experience it.

The first one was a perfectly valid question even if you feel the second one wasn't. ***** at Redsniper for not asking a question! :D

I got one:

How long did the Lucifer bombard the surface of Vasuda Prime?
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.
