Mission Briefing

Mission Briefing. Hell’s Kitchen System, 06:00 hours, 2654.285.

Peter Halcyon
The situation is getting worse, people.
The Confederation's lost Planck's Star...
...and the Kilrathi forces there will be headed for us next.
Since we're expecting an increased hostile presence...
...we'll send wings to recon every bogie in the system.
Maverick, we've got a half-dozen bogies circling about 85,000 klicks out.
I want you and Hunter to go check them out.
Computer, display Theta.
They're circling a point here, at Nav 1.
It looks like they're waiting for something to jump in.
It could be just a tanker or a 'sport...
...but it might be the first of the Kilrathi warships from Planck's.
Ian St. John
Do we make a play for 'er, colonel, or is this just a look-see?
Peter Halcyon
You'll have to make the call, Maverick, but I'd say engage.
Even if it turns out to be a Fralthi...
...she'll never be as vulnerable as when she first jumps in.
Anything else?
All right, then, let's get out into space.
Squadron dismissed.
