- Don't panic young starhopper!! All you need to do is make sure that you
- actually manuever to dock with the Tiger's claw. So you actually have to
- fly in from the front side of it, where you see a large open slit where
- ships could fly in and out of. Basically, you'll get the Battlestar Galatica
- type entrance if you are aligned right. If you land that way, then the ALS
- or Automatic Landing Sequence can commence. You'll see an anim of your ship
- flying in to dock and all, If you are doing just this, as it seems you are,
- I'm not sure what you are doing then. Wing Commander 2 has much more modern
- aircraft so that you only need to fly up close to start the landing sequence
- instead of comming in from the right side. Wing Commander 2 shows many
- technological improvements from the ships they gave the Tiger's Claw. To sum
- up, the Tiger's Claw is sort of like Deep Space 9. They are one of the outer
- posts and defending that region, the Vega system in this instance, it's a
- run down ship, with not a whole lot of stuff to protect it. They don't even
- have decent looking barracks on that ship. The other guys closer in have
- ferraris in comparison, but right now, they need a good young pilot to
- work for even a bucket of bolts such as the Tiger's Claw.
