Preflight Conversations

Talk to SHOTGLASS

The Kilrathi scum have taken Toadstool...

Just heard the news. They've got complete control of the planet.

Since Planck's Star and Alliance fell, that was our last world in the sector.

The order to pull out will have to come soon...

Damn shame, too. Millions of people dead, dozens of worlds lost...

...just 'cause the Empire of Kilrah can't stand havin' neighbors.

Talk to ANGEL

Ah, Major Blair. Bonjour.

I have heard that the Kilrathi have sent all of their best against us now.

Only our presence in this system prevents their control of the sector...

...so we will be facing only their finest pilots from now on.

I have been reading the records of their leading aces...

And Khajja the Fang leads the Empire of Kilrah with 99 victories.

Mon dieu, I hope that none of us will be his hundredth!

Talk to PALADIN

Och, lad, I reckon this fight's just about over.

What a bloody disappointment it is, too...

I spent me entire bloody life fightin' the Kilrathi...

...and now they chase us 'ome, with our tails between our legs

Bloody damn shame, 'at's what it is...

Mission Briefing

Mission Briefing. Hell’s Kitchen System, 06:00 hours, 2654.286.

Peter Halcyon

Well, ladies and gentlemen, it's all over.

The last refugee transport has left Hell's Kitchen for the Home Worlds...

...and we've been ordered to pull out of the Vega Sector.

The entire Confederate fleet is falling back to Proxima Centauri...

...to prepare for the defense of Deneb Sector.

I need a volunteer wing to fly a mission that may well be suicide.

I won't ask for volunteers until I've briefed you all on the mission.

Computer, display Psi.

The Tiger's Claw is currently here.

There's a Kilrathi destroyer -- a Ralari -- near Nav 1, here, and closing.

The Tiger's Claw is headed for her jump point here, at Nav 2.

There are dozens of enemy fighters in the area.

I need someone to head off the Ralari, and detain or destroy her...

...while the Claw prepares for her jump.

I want to point out that there are no guarantees on this one.

The Tiger's Claw won't be able to wait for you once she's ready to jump.

Whoever volunteers stands a good chance of being left behind...

Christopher Blair

I'll do it, sir. I'll take that chance.

Ian St. John

At's the spirit, mate!

Colonel, I want to fly 'is wing.

Peter Halcyon

This is a very brave gesture. Good luck out there, gentlemen.

Squadron dismissed.

Mission Debriefing

Mission Debriefing. 16:00 hours, 2654.286.

Peter Halcyon

Maverick Glad to have you back on board

We were able to follow most of your engagements on long-range sensors...

Brilliant flying...absolutely brilliant.

If we'd all flown that well throughout the campaign...

...we might not have been chased out of the sector like this.

Christopher Blair

Thank you, sir. Are we ready for the jump?

Peter Halcyon

Yes, Major, we should be making the jump any second now...

We'll go over your numbers while we wait for it...

You took out 11 of the Kilrathi fighters, Maverick...

while Hunter got 8.

That's all, then. It's all on the bridge crew from here...
