Preflight Conversations

Talk to Shotglass

Shotglass

Hello, Maverick. What will it be?

Christopher Blair

The usual, Sam, Any news?

Shotglass

None to speak of. There is a rumor that the strike will be any minute now.

But it's just a rumor.

If you ask me, though, I think that's the smartest thing we could do right now.

Christopher Blair

Hit 'em hard and fast, that's how I'd do it. Use surprise to our advantage.

Shotglass

We're giving those cats too much time to prepare.

But, I'm not in charge and the Admiral doesn't ask me, so I keep my opinions to myself.

Talk to Knight

Joseph Khumalo

Haven't seen you in a while, Maverick. That's my own fault, though.

I haven't felt very social lately, I'm not sure why, but I've had this feeling of doom hanging over me for a while now,

like I'm not going to make it back next time. But I've come back every time, so, who knows…

Talk to Jazz

Zach Colson

Hey Maverick, will you join us? I was just telling Knight here about some of those manuevers you were using on that last mission.

That was some nice flying, by the way, maybe some time you can show them to me?

Christopher Blair

Sure, Jazz, after this campaign, when I'm a little less tense.

Zach Colson

All worked up? Yeah, I know how that goes. I'm real excited about the base assault. When do you think it will happen?

Christopher Blair

I don't know. Whenever the Admiral feels like it, I guess.

Mission Briefing

Mission Briefing. Jakarta System

Peter Halycon

Settle down, people, it's time to get to work. There's a convoy of Kilrathi ships coming through.

They've finally realized we're going to strike their base and are rushing to get defenses in place.

If we can take out this convoy it will make our job later that much easier.

You listen as the Commander makes the assignments

…and Maverick, you and Jazz will be Xi wing. Your assignment is a direct strike on the convoy.

Fly directly to Nav 1 and wreak as much havoc as possible.

Transports are a priority, as they are most likely to be carrying weapons.

Other than that, take out all you can. Any questions?

Christopher Blair

No sir.

Zach Colson

No sir.

Peter Halcyon

That's all. Pilots, prepare for launch.

Mission Debriefing

Mission Debriefing.

Peter Halcyon

Report, Maverick.

Christopher Blair

Yes sir. Upon arrival at Nav 1 we sighted 3 Lumbari a Fralthi and numerous fighters.

None of the big ships survived, and most of the fighters were destroyed as well.

Peter Halcyon

Excellent, that's just the kind of report I like to hear. Well, lets go over the details.

The recorder shows you credited with killing 11, Maverick. Jazz didn't take down any enemy ships.

Well, get some rest pilots. Dismissed.

Hanger Deck

Peter Halcyon

For excellence in combat with the Kilrathi enemy,

the Terran Confederation is proud to present the Gold Star.

Your courage is an example to the confederations finest defenders.

Well done Maverick, congratulations.

Christopher Blair

Thank you, sir!
