Summary[edit]

Description

A screenshot of the 1996 video game Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri, depicting a combat situation in a Random Scenario Builder mission. Resized up due to unusual resolution in high-res mode. Image was originally 320x400, yet shown at 8:5 ratio in game. Resizing to 320x200 (lo-res game mode) to correct aspect ratio would have lost some text legibility.

Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri

Portion used

Full image.

Low resolution?

No.

Purpose of use

The image is used to explain several of the game's distinctive features talked about in the article, such as the graphical style (A heads-up display interface containing three "Multi-Function Displays" over a view of a 3D environment). It highlights them in a way the article text itself could not describe as intricately and thus enhances the readers' understanding of the prose.

Replaceable?

No free alternative exists or could be created.
