Hot damn! That Y-wing pilot had some serious balls! Great flying. That's the kinda pilot I'd love to fly with.

Awesome vid CAAM!

It will be some time before vista = boost in performance. i believe its slow speed is to do with the way it handles the graphics of applications.

Price. I wasn't kidding about the budget. If Vista = Boost in performance, maybe I'll get it in the future.

Hehe Yeah you were Imp that round. (Tie Bomber in the beginning) I think you were the one who spoiled the Y-wing's fun.

I have a new gaming PC now so I'll see what else I can come up with movie-wise. Just gotta find a way to overcome Battlerecorders rough edges.

Preacher or Omen I am not, tho, this was just a fluke.

Dude that is a great video! I have to echo the praise for the Y-Wing sequence.

Keep making these things and get them out to as many people as possible!

Thanks guys. Yeah, that Y-Wing pilot was fearless. I think it was actually his gunner that got that last Tie tho. But yeah, he almost made it despite the overwhelming odds against him.

Hey, TY you're in the video.

Wow, that Y-Wing sequence was crazy. First two head-to-head kills in a row, then another kill, then two TIEs get on its tail and it just completely ignores them until one of them shoots the other to pieces... if he had attempted evasive action at that point he might even have lived through the surviving one.

Not a bad video. Only problems are the nametags and the early shot where the Y-Wing stand still before moving. And the opening shot inside the ISD's hull.
