The Shoulder of Orion (HD)

An Aces High machinima: I was reminded of a scene from "Blade Runner" with Rutger Hauer as "Roy Batty," when I first began editing this, and that thought provided the theme for the vid. (PS: Sorry, Vap, I missed you in the credits!)

This game seems to have gotten better since I stopped playing in late 2002. I might just have to stop playing IL-2 for a bit and take AH2 for a spin :D

@HoBoeJoe2 It's progressed a lot. I came back to it after an early try of it after Air Warrior's demise. Back then I couldn't get into it, but I've been back and playing for a couple of years now, as are many of the Musketeers. Give it another try. Some things will always be the same (dweebery) but the game keeps improving. Just today the game developers introduced a re-modeled Zero and a new plane to the game, the B-29 Superfortress among other things.

Luck!

What's the music starting at 1:30? Awesome!

[orpheous58]

@swordofdixie Thanks! That great piece is The March of Cambreadth. Here is an interest bit about it from Wikipedia:

"March of Cambreadth is the award-winning signature song of Alexander James Adams, previously known as Heather Alexander."

Heather is now James. :-)

@orpheous58 - Are you saying that the music from 1:15 - 3:01 is part of "March of Cambreadth"? If so, I've never heard that part before.

You did well with the Blade Runner quote comparing to a burning and sinking carrier. Great job.

[orpheous58]

@swordofdixie Apologies; I answered without remembering about the long intro. In my mind, I was thinking only of the two music pieces that come after it.

You're right; March of Cambreadth is the longer piece that comes after it. That first piece of music is from the King Arthur OST. I believe that it's titled "Do you think I'm Saxon?" It's not very long but it's really powerful.

Sorry for the mixup! Glad you liked the video.

Awesome! I liked the Blade Runner tip of the hat at the beginning. Reminds me of Little Big Man "It's a good day to die"

Excellent camera work and Direction propelling the story forward.
