But I think I'd disagree on that point--many of the planes in the game are just regular planes (I bought the game to see what all the hype was about). For (...)

Of what I've seen of the game, you've really captured the essence of the theme. Are the game creators aware of the models bieng (...)

Exchange that stuff for some large primitive looking machine guns and I think you'd be a lot closer to the CS style... (...) (20 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

It looks like any given forward-prop-driven plane dating from (...) (20 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

I don't like it when insanely whacky but intensly cool stuff like this gets (...) (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
