hey folks,

I've been eying the sale copy of WCP at my local store and a good review
here has got me almost ready to buy it...anyone got any opinions about
this game, especially how it compares to XvT and Tie Fighter (both of
which I own)...not looking for a "which is better" thread, just wondering
how WCP's interface, play "feel", etc. are different.  I have played WC3,
but never finished it (got frustrated by the limited info you were given
for missions...also, don't like combat sims where there's a "trick" to
winning scenarios...if I wanted that, I'd play an adventure game instead).

thanx!
demian

p.s. Mark Hammill is my hero.
