| LIEUTENANT LAUREL BUCKLEY - - CALLSIGN: COBRA - - IS AT THE BAR IN THE BACKGROUND. SHE HAS A BROODING INTENSITY THAT UNNERVES A LOT OF PEOPLE. SHE SHOOTS BLAIR A COLD, DON’T-FUCK-WITH-ME LOOK.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR FINDS A FRIENDLIER LOOK IN THE SMILING FACE OF LIEUTENANT WINSTON CHANG - - CALLSIGN: VAGABOND - - WHO’S AT A TABLE, SHUFFLING A DECK OF CARDS. VAGABOND IS A LAID-BACK, EASY-GOING CHINES PILOT, 30-45. HE’S A VETERAN WHO’S KNOCKED AROUND THE STAR SYSTEMS FOR YEARS, NEVER PUTTING DOWN ROOTS WITH ANY PARTICULAR SQUADRON.
| |
| | |
| HOBBES ENTERS FROM THE BARRACKS AND MOVES TO THE BAR. COBRA ABRUPTLY STANDS AND STORMS OUT, SHOOTING ANOTHER LOOK AT BLAIR AS SHE GOES.

| | |
| BARRACKS - “HOLO-MAIL” FROM ANGEL (SLIDING - SERIES A/B/C/)<BR>
| |
| A0BARAG<BR>
| |
| Blair’s LOCKER in the BARRACKS will be used as a “gump” more than once in the story. Aside from his gear, clothing, and medals, there should be a photo of ANGEL hanging in there (which will become a “hot gump” later). When there is something in the locker that we want the Player to click on, the LOCKER DOOR SHOULD BE OPEN when he enters the BARRACKS. After he plays the item, the locker door will be closed whenever he returns to the Barracks (until there’s something new there for him to click on). But in most cases like the one below, he should be able to open the locker and replay the item as often as he wants. The item in this particular scene is a “HOLO-MAIL CASSETTE” which he can click on to play. And it should be available for play and replay throughout Series A, B, and C.
| |
|
| |
|
| BLAIR ENTERS THE BARRACKS AND SEES THAT HIS LOCKER IS OPEN. INSIDE HE FINDS A HOLO-MAIL CASSETTE LABELED: “MESSAGE FOR COL. C. BLAIR.”
| | : '''TAYLA''' |
| | : I see you still haven't delivered my goods to Tuck. |

| Hello, mon ami. I hope the flight goes well for you and all the others on the Concordia. I am about to set out for a covert operation with Admiral Tolwyn. So I’m afraid we might be apart a little longer. But always remember: je t’aime, . . I love you . . .

| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>

| <nowiki> -></nowiki> (to comm officer)<BR>

| No, I don’t have anything better to do. . . <BR>

| . . . Ok, so I pulled a tight loop, locked on to that cat’s tail, fired off a heat seeker... boom, turned him into kitty litter - -
| |
| | |
| BLAIR AND MANIAC GO WAY BACK AND RIGHT NOW, BLAIR WOULD RATHER NOT DEAL WITH HIM. HE MOVES TO LEAVE - - BUT NOT QUICK ENOUGH: MANIAC SPOTS HIM.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| Well, well, if it isn’t the “Colonel”. Uh, I’m sorry I couldn’t make your welcoming party.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR GLANCES OVER AT THE FEMALE COMM OFFICER, WHO SEEMS RELIEVED TO BE RID OF MANIAC.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| Why, I guess you had more pressing maneuvers to undertake . . . Maniac?
| |

| . . . by friendly fire.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC’S GRIN DISAPPEARS
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| Some people appreciate my flying style. I do what’s necessary to win, ok? I suppose you still fly with one eye on the regs manual?
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| I don’t take stupid risks.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| Speaking of stupid, I also heard you put Hobbes back on the flight roster.
| |

| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| My, my, . . . word travels fast on this tub.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| Never understood what you saw in that cat.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| Simple. I need a wingman I can count on.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| <nowiki> -></nowiki> (snorts)<BR>
| |
| You can’t trust someone who’ll kill their own kind.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| Who I choose as my wingman is my prerogative.<BR>
| |
| It’s a . . . privilege of rank.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| <nowiki> -></nowiki> (bitter)<BR>
| |
| I’ll bet you stay up late nights just polishing it.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| No, as a matter of fact, I have “majors” who do that for me.
| |
| | |
| MANIAC<BR>
| |
| The difference in our rank is a formality. We both know who’s better in the cockpit.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| Yeah. We do.
| |
| | |
| BLAIR’S CONFIDENCE UNNERVES MANIAC, WHO TURNS BACK TO FEMALE COMM OFFICER.

| |
| Let me tell you that story again.

| ===Gunnery - Flint===
| |
| | |
| This “conversation” can be triggered by the Player simply entering the room OR it cam be triggered by clicking on Fling. If it is triggered by entering the room, we should still cut to CLOSEUPS (as in normal conversation) so that we can get a good look at Flint and be able to read what her face reveals.<BR>
| |
| BLAIR ENTERS WHAT APPEARS TO BE AN EMPTY ROOM AT FIRST GLANCE
| |
| | |
| BUT FAR ON THE OTHER SIDE, LIEUTENANT ROBIN PETERS - - CALLSIGN: FLINT - - STANDS VERY STILL, GAZING OUT INTO THE STARFIELD BEYOND THE GLASS. SHE IS JUST ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER OF 30. THE WAR HAS YET TO TURN HER FACE HARD, BUT HER EYES WILL MEET ANYBODY’S GAZE AND KEEP IT: ALERT, WATCHFUL, ATTENTIVE TO THE SLIGHTEST CHANGES IN HER ENVIRONMENT.
| |
| | |
| SHE CATCHES BLAIR’S REFLECTION IN THE GLASS, TURNS TO LOOK AT HIM. HER EYES QUICKLY MOVE OVER HIS BODY, ALMOST EXAMINING HIM. SHE’S NOT ONE TO SHOW HER EMOTIONS BUT HERE SEEMS TO BE A GLINT OF APPROVAL IN HER LOOK.
| |
| | |
| BUT BEFORE SHE CAN SAY ANYTHING, CAPTAIN EISEN’S VOICE IS HEARD OVER THE SHIP’S PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM:
| |
| | |
| EISEN (V.O.)<BR>
| |
| Colonel Blair. Report to the Briefing Room -> *<BR>
| |
| immediately, please.
| |
| | |
| WITH A SLIGHT SHRUG, FLINT TURNS BACK TO THE WINDOW.
| |
| | |
| The EISEN VOICEOVER should continue to play as the Player moves back through the various rooms on his way to the Briefing Room. No other conversations will be available (even though he may see other characters) between this scene and the Briefing for Mission A1.

| LOADOUT (FLIGHT CONTROL) - RACHEL -> A1FCTRA*<BR>

SHE LIKES PILOTS WHO KNOW WHAT THEIR DOING . . . AND BLAIR CARRIES HIMSELF LIKE HE KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING.

| No, sir, not at all. I think it’s about time. That cat’s one hell of a pilot
| |

| BRIEFING A1 - EISEN -> A1BRFEI<BR>
| |
| BLAIR ENTERS THE BRIEFING ROOM TO FIND EISEN STANDING OVER THE MAP TABLE, HIS FACE LIT FROM THE GLOWING DISPLAY.
| |
| | |
| EISEN<BR>
| |
| Come in, Colonel. It’s time to put that reputation of yours to the test.<BR>
| |
| <nowiki>*</nowiki><BR>

| HE GESTURES TO THE MAP TABLE.
| |
| | |
| EISEN (V.O.)<BR>
| |
| Confed Intelligence tells us that the Kilrathi presence is growing here in the Orsini System. You and your wingman are to fly a routine patrol of these three zones and sweep the areas of any hostiles you may encounter.
| |
| | |
| EISEN LOOKS UP FROM THE DISPLAY TO BLAIR.
| |
| | |
| EISEN<BR>
| |
| Understood?
| |
| | |
| BLAIR<BR>
| |
| Completely, sir.
| |
| | |
| EISEN<BR>
| |
| Very good. You leave immediately.

| ===A Word From Colonel Hart===
| | '''Talk to Tayla''' |
|
| |
|
| This is your first mission onboard "Tin Can Sally." She's old, but she still has a lot of spirit. More importantly, because this is your first flight with a new Wing Commander, there's no need to toss you into the middle of the Kilrah system. We'll start this one nice andeasy, a milk run.
| | : '''TAYLA''' |
| | : I knew you'd come back, $CS. |
|
| |
|
| {Picture: Eisen} ''Welcome aboard the Victory''
| | : '''PLAYER''' |
| | : Let's hear the specs again. |
|
| |
|
| ===Colonel Hart's Tactical Analysis===
| | : '''TAYLA''' |
| | : Here it is. You deliver some personal cargo for me to Tuck in Sherwood. |
| | : There's no contraband, and I'll keep the pirates on your side. |
| | : You get 10,000, and I'll be at Tuck to greet you. |
|
| |
|
| You will have three conversations in this mission: Hobbes in Flight Control, Rachel in Flight Control, and Maniac on the Bridge.
| | {| |
| | |
| This is the easiest mission in the entire game. The best tactic is to order Hobbes to break and attack, and then clean up any ships that he misses
| |
| | |
| Use your missiles accordingly. If you need practice with the game, have Hobbes form on your wing and try to take out the Darkets alone.
| |
| | |
| {Picture: Hobbes) ''Make sure you chat with your old friend.'' | |
| | |
| ===Objective for Success===
| |
| | |
| Destroy at least 3 Darkets.
| |
| | |
| ===Colonel Hart's Counsel===
| |
| | |
| The Hellcat is your only choice for this mission, and you can't change your missile loads. I recommend you take Hobbes as your wingman.

| ===Orsini Sector===
| |
| | |
| The war is going badly, and you're assigned to an older carrier, the TCS ''Victory'', under the command of Captain William Eisen Now that you're in command of a fighter group, you're responsible for assigning routine patrol and cargo escort missions to your pilots. Aboard the ''Victory'', you meet new pilots and several old acquaintances, including Hobbes. Your first assignment as a CFG (Commander Fighter Group) on the ''Victory'' is to assign your pilots and fighters to a patrol sweep of Orsini Sector.

| ===Mission=== | |
| | |
| '''Briefing''' Make a three-area sweep and destroy any Kilrathi fighters you find.
| |
|
| |
|
| '''Wingmen''' '''Hobbes''' (only choice)
| | ===Description=== |
|
| |
|
| '''Ships''' '' '''Hellcat''' '' (only choice) | | Tayla's missions aren't essential, but flying them will give you a bit of extra cash to buy ship upgrades before starting on the more difficult missions. Your first mission is a cargo mission, although unlike Tayla's cargo in Privateer, this cargo is legal. |
|
| |
|
| | ===Objectives=== |
|
| |
|
| '''Takeoff''' | | Fly Tayla's personal goods to Tuck's pirate base in the Sherwood system. Meet Tayla in the bar on Tuck's. |
| * Autopilot.
| |
|
| |
|
| '''(A) Nav 1'''
| | ===Scripted Encounters=== |
| * 2 ''Darket''.
| |
|
| |
|
| '''(B) Nav 2'''
| | None |
| * Clear
| |
|
| |
|
| '''(C) Nav 3'''
| | ===Notes=== |
| * 2 ''Darket''.
| |
|
| |
|
| '''Success'''
| | * With no scripted encounters, you just have random encounters to face, and since pirates are friendly while you work for Tayla, that doesn't leave much to worry about. |
| * Destroy at least 3 ''Darket''. Go to Mission ORS-2. | |
|
| |
|
| '''Failure'''
| | ===User Comments=== |
| * Go to Mission ORS-2.

|
| |
|
| * Before you autopilot from the ''Victory'', redistribute your power. If you've got good aim, allocate the majority of power to your weapons and lower engines, damage repair and shields. If you're new to the game, increase your shield and damage settings and decrease engines and weapons.
| | Date : Sun Jan 20 02:48:00 2013 |
|
| |
|
| * At Nav 1, set Hobbes free to ''Break and attack'', then take out the ''Darket'' with full guns, or by wearing out their shields with the guns and popping them with an IR missile. (HS missiles will also work, especially if you've already tagged the rear shields.)
| | Mission : |
|
| |
|
| * If you're having trouble staying with the ''Darket'', use [Y] and occasionally afterburn. Take them on head-on if you want to--your shields are better than theirs.
| | Comments : Yeah, our old friend, Mr. Lynch. His offer is well worth it. By the time you get to him, everyone in the universe wants your head on a stick. It's cool not to have red dots on the screen each time you jump. |

| In one of the more macabre touches to an already brutal war, the Hispania freighter Loa recovered a Confederation fighter adrift in the Veronica sector, its pilot ritually executed by the Kilrathi before being strapped into the cockpit and cast into space The fighter was immediately confiscated by the Confederation Intelligence Department, but crewmembers reported that Kilrathi symbols had been painted across the fighter's hull in its pilot's own blood, while those who saw the body indicated that it had been literally ripped to shreds

|
| Linquistics specialists at the University of Hawaii on Earth have made progress in deciphering the intricacies of the Kilrathi language and have begun publishing their reearch in leading journals. While Confederation Intelligence is rumored to be adept at both the decryption and translation of Kilrathi signals, civilian reearch has been sharply restricted.
