The briefing music for the last few missions is from the Gundam Unicorn OVAs. There's also a track that I think is from Starship Operators.

[Mikes]

I downloaded this campaign a while ago and have to admit i put it away again after trying to first mission....  what a mistake! LOL

The 1st missions slow and ugly fighter(s) together with mix matched FS models (Explorer) and especially the quite dull mission vs. the poor Star fighters just put me off i guess.

But oh my... what came after.... from the atmospheric flight mission to huge battles and all with a well realized storyline.... wow.


Thanks for a really unique campaign Spoon!

I guess my one suggestion would be to retwork the first mission.

[Dragon]

It could use some new models for Explorer and the node station.

[General Battuta]

Yeah I gotta admit the first mission made me go 'oh no...'

But then it got so much better.

[AndrewofDoom]

It didn't help that the first mission was Spoon's first serious attempt at FREDing either.

That's no excuse!

The first mission is intended to scare you!

[Jellyfish]

Think of it as candy. You have to get through the envelope first.

Thanks! Glad you hear you enjoyed it!

That's not what you told me on IRC when I asked

Difference being that I started at the very start of a campaign while you started with the climax of a campaign 
Not to mention that I had to redo DE like 20 times, much to my frustration, because it was nearly impossible to save the allied capships from the enemy beams. Even with invicibility cheats on!

That's because of a feature that got implemented fairly late in development to prevent the mission from being self-playing and that didn't get enough iterative testing, not because of a design flaw drawn from inexperience. In fact it mostly provides evidence that I got worse as I went along.

First mission= scary?

Crap, I was totally irritated who was the protagonist?! These girl-pilot named Dawn?! No, this space-elf?! Seems not... but then I saw the face of Misuzu and her crazy style. Total crazy/irritating characters seemed to be intended as the protagonists....I mean, look at Ruffy from One Piece or Son Goku from Dragonball!

But yes, the speed was a bit of nothing but I played further and I was really scared when I found out that it plays hundred years after this incident and...whoaah, all these speedy-ships and crazy fast rockets and all those enemies.

Spoiler:

GAHAHAHA! ADVANCE! hits the point

I've hit upon a strange error...

While playing the sequence of missions to save the Cordi queen I decided to restart the whole thing because I had about 1% hull left.
When I got to mainhall to continue the campaign the game just froze on me. I restarted the game but this time I couldn't even get to mainhall.
After that I tried the 3.6.12 release build (I was using antipodes previously) and the same thing happened.
After some experimenting it turned out to be something wrong with the pilot I was using... I made a new one and everything was again, albeit having to restart.

I good thing is though that WoD is still very fun on the second playthrough.

 :yes:Awesome job!

Sorry to hear that, sounds like yet an other issue caused by Red Alert.

Good to hear you are still having fun regardless though 

[Droid803]

Urp, has the Red-Alert issue been mantised' yet?
I mean, saying "don't use red alerts!" is kinda bad advice when retail uses it and its broken...

[swamper123]

The best campaing that I ever played ,after Wih of course , I really like it and thanks the great effort of this community , especially in the modders like you, thanks again spoon 

P.D : Sorry about my english 

[General Battuta]

Not 'of course!'

[oohhboy]

WiH might have better production values, but it doesn't have the bat**** insanity contained within Wings.

THe last missions, which were a little Battle of Endor-y was an sight to be hold with raw firepower the Dragon Slave(slayer?)s, cluster missiles, and pure energy filling the space.

Funny thing is after playing Wings and then playing WiH, it almost feels sedate in comparison. Now only if we could get some VA work done for Wings....

[-Norbert-]

Then you should try to replay the vanilla campaign... ah the curse of high manouverbility fighters like the Ray III-E and Kentauri.... once you get used to them you feel like playing in slow motion if you fly a Herc, Erinyes or even Aurora 

[Pred the Penguin]

I'm actually still more used to playing with slow ships even after 3 WoD playthroughs... Maybe I'm just slow. XD

[-Norbert-]

Or maybe you took the W variant. If you don't fly high manouverbility fighters it's no wonder you don't get used to them.
Me.... I'm for the E all the way and fly it whenever I get the chance in WoD.
