Newbie question

OK maybe this has been asked in previous threads however I am lazy and I really do not have time to read through every post so I'm just gonna make a new thread and let you laugh at me cuz im new . The questions asked are newbie questions just like in the Fs2 forum when people ask when is FS3 coming out
Two of the last questions are personal and I wrote em here because I know this is the crew that made both campaigns so I must be at the right place.

1. When is BlackWater coming out? Has there been set any date that will be missed or not and all that ya know.

2. How many new fighters, bombers, interceptors, destroyers etc, etc. there are? I did not see anything new except the Golgotha on the either trailer or the new site/new screenshots.

3. Will any of these ships be available for download on the site?

4. In Derelict, how come Lucifer had beams? In Fs1 it only had those big rockets that needed 30 minutes to kill an Orion.

5. I downloaded and installed Warzone and played it but when it comes to the mission where admiral Russik (apparently) turns traitor to the GTVA and escapes with the Vidar ship. Now I played the mission first time and got everything accomplished but it says that I failed and must restart the mission. Then I tired it again and took an Eri and disabled the Orion so it did not jump out (although the pilot in the text says so...). So then I kill it's beams and the Sobek destroys Russik's Orion but I get same debriefing in the end REGARDLESS that I didn't get the order to jump out after Russik was destroyed (maybe a bug,maybe not, I don't care)
In any case I did the thing overall 3 times and it didn't let me progress, then I just said screw it and reformated fs...
How do I finish that mission is the question...

That's it, hope I did not annoy anyone or anything. cee ya when I see ya

The best answer to question one lies on the left side of the new website. Or alternatively, when its done.

Alot of new ships yes. We haven't revealed alot yet. Try and spot the two new ships featured in screen shots. They are pretty well hidden...the one especially.

Actually Ice, there's four if you count the Golgotha and the Ceres. (I guess we've used them so much, we forgot they were new )

And yeah, that one new ship is really hidden. You'd probably miss it if you didn't know what to look for. If someone that isn't on the BWO staff can find the ship and show everyone where it is, they get something special. They get double props if they can guess who designed the mission.

EDIT: on The GTD [G] Picture, what are those yellow blips? They are near the weapons energy readout.

thouse are bombs

even knowing what to look for it took me a while to find the [hint]dimly lit fighters[/hint], it's a bad shot of them, there small and with the backlighting you can't hardly see them

Well on the GTD [G] Picture, underneath the exploding ship, there are lights, they dont show up on the radar either. But then again, it could be part of the exploding ship but i'll guess it isnt. Next little guess, is difficult, trying to sort out debris and laser fire from ship lights and engine glows. But BWO screenshot 05, under the sun there is a small curious ship.

At the end of Warzone, is the war even finished? I doubt that that whole campaign could have taken place through 2 years.

With that Warzone mission, either grab the patch to 1.1 OR...scan the Vidar before it jumps out. I made an error in the campaign file making the Bonus objective a requirement.
