Oh yeah, I forgot one other part. When the Capella node was going nova, I was still in the heat of the battle. Trying to save as many civilians as possible. With all the flak around me bursting, wingmen screaming to their deaths, I only just managed to hear the message to get back to the node. So when I saw the timer, I just turned to the node, put all powers in the burners and went for it. Dodging some freighters i said "Godspeed." Not actually knowing what ill fate was awaiting them, I just knew that I had to get to the node FAST! I was really beggining to scream at the screen, edging it futher "GO! GO! GO! YOU F$#@¤& PIECE OF S&%¤#!!" Finally I JUST and just reached the node as the timer ticked its last, even seeing my fighter begin to burn up a bit as I jumped. Thankfully I survived, and literarely screamed out in joy!"   Aaaah, those were the days. I just love this game...

*blink* It's possible to make it out in time? I thought you were scripted to die on that mission. *heh* Man, I got barbecued.

I just took a perseus for that mission my third time around.  I made it to the node with time to spare.

- Seeing FS1 for the first time on the laptop of some random guy who gave me his copy. I thought "Whoa, games can have graphics this good!" (I was living under a rock, gaming-wise.)

- In "A Failure to Communicate" I burned at top speed, shot off one PXV, and it blew up Deva 1 as we flew by each other at near 350m/s, with me screaming "YEEEEEHAAH!"  

- Seeing the Galatea for the first time. And I originally thought the Orff was big...  

- Seeing the Lucifer in Playing Judas. That mission scared me to death the first time I played it.

- Seeing the Colossus for the first time.

- The first deployment of the Meson Bomb (Knossos go boom, everything within 3km erased) and the fact that it did nothing (Renenet runs away from Sathanas #1)

- "Dive dive dive"

- The first MOD I ever played with (Dark's Polaris)  

- My first working MOD, the Hypercannon (a secondary made to be like the Lucifer Beam, except mounted on a special Leviathan variant.)

Heheh   You know, you just have to make your run at about 10:30 or 11:00 minutes in, and you'll make it with time to spare.

I'll leave it up to the experts.  

Besides, when it comes to FRED, yes, I can be remarkably retarded. "Beam-free-all? What the..?"   Renders are my forte

Most likely, it'd also be able to count all the atoms of a star in a millisecond and talk the legs off an Acturan Mega-Donkey...

"...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
