One day, I decided to login to the Origin Systems BBS because I discovered you could download addons for Wing Commander Armada from their BBS (days before internet). Unfortunately they were in Houston or something and at that age, I didn't realize that dialing in with my 28.8K modem would incur horrendous long distance charges. My parents weren't very happy with that. I actually downloaded a ton of huge .wav files to replace my in game taunts with clips from TV shows, etc. foolishly not realizing that I would be the only one to hear them and not the people on the other computers which defeated the purpose.

Leech missiles were the best missiles in Armada simply from the humiliation factor of leeching your enemy til his ship failed, then knowing that he was hopelessly watching as you slowly looped around and lined up his cockpit for the kill shot.
