Why should it list the ships at all, is our question.

For a ships list, refer them o our wiki, and then to our forum.

i agree with Raa.  That would be the better course, i think that the ship's list is too specific a bit of info for the General wiki.

You should include them all, because these ships are still part of the freespace universe, and you can find them in user-made campaigns. It isn't in the main campaign? All the more reason to tell people about it! Sure, it isn't about FREDing, but these ships, even if they aren't used in the main campaign (which is actually fairly short when compared to some of Blaise Russel's superb campaigns), are still offical Fs2 ships.

:v: put these in there for us to use in our campaigns. Again, they are still official Fs2 ships. If we're going to make a Fs2 ship-list, it should be for all ships, especially since Fs2 has been out for such a long time. I purchased the game when it first came out, and frankly, I've played so many excellent user-made campaigns, some even more fun than the main campaign, that I don't care what ships are used in the main campaign. I'd rather see all the offical ships, not just your preferences.

I understand you're new, and many of the Fs2 ships may be new to you, but I think the majority of us would rather see them *all* included, rather than just some of them, if it should be done at all.

By the way, none of this was meant as flaming. Rather, it was meant as constructive critism. We don't want to insult you, or drive you away. Stay while, luigi. :)

o our wiki


Ours is currently incomplete. But I agree. Since luigi30 seems to want to do his own personal thing for himself, we should finish our wiki...which probably should have been done a long time ago. :D

I was about to quote you and tell you to help finish it. I have addded, and fixed some of the entries, but I've not the patience to do it all.

And sadly, those who do have the patience, cannot edit the wiki.


So, Kara, if you do have alot of info to add to it, PM it to me, and I will add it, since it seems to work for me. :)
