Our very own Ace101 has recently had the opportunity to interview a few of the team members from the First Strike (http://www.firststrikemod.com/) mod. We have seven questions/answers for you as well as some new media. Here's a portion of the interview:

TotalBF2142: Are their any plans in implement Space Combat into the mod?

[FS]Woodrow: Space, you say? Well I have to admit I'm not as up on the whole "lore" thing as a few of the others around here, but I do remember there being something about a space battle or two in the Star Wars films (those are the ones with Mr. Spock, right?).

Anyhow, you'll be happy to learn that space maps are a go. We've been systematically knocking out every obstacle on the road to building a full spacemap, and I'm pleased to say the last few were overcome just a couple days ago. You can expect to see full space maps in this mod. Even more full than the Galactic Conquest ones, as we're finally able to depart from the whole "grid" issue that plagued GC's maps. Not to mention capital ships, zero gravity, phasers, teleporters, the works!

[FS]MUHAHAHAHAHA: Does a bird have wings? You bet there will be. We're looking to have multiple different types of space combat.

Great article guys.

I used to be very active with FirstStrike...I think I have somewhere like 240 posts on their forums or something.

Sounds like I may get back into it. ;)

Good going guys.. old and new, I'm glad to see that GC didn't die just yet.

Perhaps the joining of the two teams will spur on even more creativity amongst the First Strike mod and we will enjoy yet another saga with the Star Wars episode 2142.

Those guys still playing GC on the Seattle Server will love to know they have new toys in the near future to play with. As I know from what I've seen thus far it wont be disapointing. :)

Looking very, very nice!! Hopefully I will have a spacecombat sim that rivals Xwing vs. Tie fighter now. (At least in terms of graphics)
