Help me find what is missing.....

Hi All,

You know that saying, "Two heads are better than one"?
Well....
....I am hoping many heads are better than none :D

At first, there was a poster in the FB Traveller group talking about running a Traveller/Star Wars universe.

That sparked my memory of an article in one of the elder magazines which covered fighters (to the best of my memory) from popular TV shows and Movies.

It included the Battlestar Galactica Viper and Cylon raider
It included the the X-Wing, Y-Wing and TIE fighters...
There were other vessels too, if fading memory serves....

And I wanted to help the OP at first.
But then I became annoyed that I could not find trace nor scent of the article.
Because I have them all electronic (and chose to waste the time) I scanned a number of "Space Gamer" magazines as well as Issues 1-24 of JTAS and Issues 1-90 of "White Dwarf"

And I have yet to find even mention of the article.

So now....
...To not only help that poster but also treat my manic disposition...

Does anyone recall this article?
Can anyone direct me to it?

Thanks in advance!
 
That sounds like Adventure Gaming Vol. 2, No. 2: Fighter Pilot of the Empire, part 1, and
Vol. 2, No. 3: Fighter Pilot of the Empire, part 2, from 1982

Thank you!!!

Of course, a quick search turned up issue 13 but not Issue 12 :\

Must keep looking...
....then digitize for ease of use.
 
Turns out, I need "Adventure Gaming" issue #5

I found my copy of Issue #13, which had part 2 of "Fighter Pilot of the Empire"

In that back half of the article, the author noted that he originally included the fighter designs I am looking for in issue #5.

I know I've seen it, and had it in the past...
Now I need to dive into the archives again...to continue looking for issue #12 and find issue #5 too.

Thanks for the help!!
