Mission Briefing

Initial Offer

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH
$NM. I trust you took care of my dear cousin.
PLAYER
Intersys was ready for us. But I got him to Romulus all right.
LYNCH
Excellent. Please accept this payment, 30,000 credits, with my warmest thanks.
But now, steel yourself for bad news.
Smythe, a man in my employ, found vital information regarding the artifact at the Oxford Library.
Unfortunately, Mr. Smythe is currently trapped on a base in the Newcastle System.
The authorities there, rife with corruption, have stopped me from...exerting my influence.
PLAYER
I see. What kind of information?
LYNCH
Smythe has not communicated that, but I believe our best chance of identifying your find...
...resides in the files at Oxford. Smythe has access to this information.
I'll pay you 30,000 credits to retrieve this man. It's in our mutual interest, after all. Deal?
Accept Refuse
LYNCH
Smythe is on Liverpool. A small refinery in the Newcastle System.
He'll be waiting for you in the bar there.
PLAYER
Look, why don't I just head for Oxford myself and locate the information?
LYNCH
Smythe is a data retrieval expert. You'd never find what you need alone.
PLAYER
Okay, I'll get him...but I hate to run off without giving Miggs a kiss. Where is he?
LYNCH
Miggs is currently eliminating a...labor difficulty. I'll convey your regards.
PLAYER
I think I've gotten enough out of you. Our business is done.
I'm headed for Oxford to find the information I need.
LYNCH
Smythe is an information retrieval expert. You'll never find what you need alone...
...but I suppose you'll need to learn that the hard way. You'll be back.

Accepted

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH
$NM, I am truly dismayed at your haphazard attitude regarding our business.
Unless you retrieve Smythe from the Newcastle System...
...our mutual search for information on the artifact is stymied.
PLAYER
We know he uncovered something at the Oxford library.
Why not go there?
LYNCH
Wasteful duplication of effort. Smythe knows what we want to know.
Better to retrieve him than to attempt to duplicate his research.
PLAYER
Okay, Lynch. I'll get him off...Liverpool, was it?
LYNCH
Yes, in Newcastle. And I'd advise you to hurry.
Return here afterwards with Smythe for your payment of 30,000 credits.

Rejected

Talk to Lynch

PLAYER
I've been thinking...maybe you're right.
Your man Smythe uncovered something important at Oxford...
...something it might take me months to locate on my own.
LYNCH
An optimistic estimate, I'm afraid. The Oxford stacks are voluminous.
We'll both be better off if you rescue Smythe.
I'm offering 30,000 credits for his return here, payable on delivery. Interested?
Accept Refuse
LYNCH
Smythe is on Liverpool. A small refinery in the Newcastle System.
He'll be waiting for you in the bar there.
PLAYER
No thanks, I'm headed for Oxford to find the information myself.
LYNCH
You'll be back, Captain $NM, you'll be back.

In Flight

Talk to Miggs

# You're making me nervous.
# Hope you're not looking for trouble.
# Hey, what's going on here?
Hey, bright boy, guess who's in deep trouble? Mr. Lynch wants that artifact. I'm gonna count to ten. Then I start shootin'. One, two, uh ... Forget this! Start shootin' boys!

Mission : Roman

Comments : 1) No you don't have to shoot at Seelig, but how hard could it be to knock down one Talon? 2) Kroiz and his two buds are so easy to kill - just fly towards them and they'll smash into an asteroid and get killed without you having to do anything.
