Wing Commander Saga is a free game based on the Freespace 2 Source Code Project. It is based upon the popular Wing Commander series by Chris Roberts and Origin, and features a new story line during the final portion of the Terran Confederations deseprate fight for survivial against the Kilrathi Empire. You assume the role of 2nd Lieutenant David Markham, a recent OCS graduate in an accelerated flight training program. Victory and survival for humanity can only be bought at a terrible cost. Gather your wingmen and your courage and prepare to play your part in humanity's desperate gambit as you face the Kilrathi foe. It is a time where even average men must reach inside themselves and become heroes. Answer the call. Face the enemy. Make your mark as the Confederation faces its darkest dawn.
A new class of warship, the Kilrathi heavy destroyer closes the gap created by technologically superior Terran capships. With enhanced shielding and armor, this destroyer also has superior maneuverability and acceleration then the nimble Kilrathi light destroyer. With exceedingly heavy weaponry for its size, it has enough firepower to rival even cruisers, and is a serious threat to capships and fighters alike. Confed pilots are warned to approach this warship with all due caution.
I imagine the capital-ship on ship engagement will be epic.
The Terran looks like a better Concordia!
Strictly speaking it is the Concordia (or one of the sister ships for that matter) - several changes were made to ensure that the ship blends in nicely with other Wing Commander 3 designs.
"It has enough firepower to rival even cruisers." It reminds me on the Fletcher-class destroyer from WWII. (I play Battlestations Midway)
