[edit] Fair Use in Descent: FreeSpace — The Great War

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Descent: FreeSpace — The Great War
Description	A screenshot of a combat taking place between Terran and Shivan fighters in an asteroid field. Notice that the interface is free of any cockpit displays, and only a HUD is in place. Target information is on the bottom left, objectives are displayed on the middle left, weapons and system information are on the right side. Flanking the radar at the bottom are shield status indicators of both the player's starfighter and the target.

Article	Descent: FreeSpace — The Great War
Portion used	This is composed of only one out of the millions of frames rendered by the video game, and hence insignificant.
Low resolution?	Yes
Purpose of use	This image shows the main screen of the game, illustrating its interface as well as showing off one of the environments the player can fight in.
Replaceable?	Interplay and Volition have not released any such images into the public domain, and a free replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information
Other information	As the game is out-of-production and no longer on sales, the use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way. Volition has made their screenshots available to the public for non-commercial uses.
