[OT] FT Mood Music (was ADLER TAG AAR)

There are some very good battle tracks on the Total Annihilation CD I've heard
them about 50 times and they are still good. The Sierra B5 Guide has a whole
music CD of atmospheric battle music and Star Trek II TWOK sound track is also
a very good source.

Anyone use sound effects in their battles? I've got a $10 Star Trek sound
generator I sometimes use.

First, Tim, thanks for the switch in topic.

Second, I'd like to put in my two cents and suggest some
Musorgsky/Ravel.
While I wouldn't suggest whole works, parts of both Pictures in an Exhibition
and Night on Bald Mountain are quite stirring, very martial
sounding. I'll leave cut-and-paste to others.

After having found the 'make shot noise' requirement of Mag-Blast, the
card game, a bit tiresome, I noticed one of the action fleet Star Wars
handle-sans-X-wing noise makers in a thrift store. Almost bought it;
would have been useful in just the way you say as well.

Course, I've always thought FT using large models would be fun. Using the ST
and SW large toys, with sound fx built in is a possibility. With proper
amp'ing and speakers.;->=

PS. The building of these compilations seem to pretty obviously infringe on
copyrights should they ever be created for other than personal use. Especially
if they include current works like SW and B5. And, I would never suggest
anyone writing me in private should they be willing to make copies to share.

For those of us who have seen the Legend of the Galactic Heroes movies,
Ravel's Bolero always comes to mind during big fleet battles.
