Preflight Conversations
Talk to SHOTGLASS
- Shotglass
- Have a drink, Maverick! We've got something to celebrate!
- I just heard the news from Major Chapman on the Austin!
- The Confed fleet chased the Kilrathi strike force from Vega prime.
- It was kinda weird actually. There wasn't a major battle or anything like that.
- The cats just closed up shop and left.
- Christopher Blair
- It sounds like they had somewhere else they wanted to go, Sam.
- Shotglass
- Makes you wonder, doesn't it? But still, they ran away.
- That's a victory for our side, isn't it?
Talk to KNIGHT
- Joseph Khumalo
- Maverick! We were just talking about you, Angel and I.
- She says you've been doing special work for the Colonel.
- Can you tell us about it?
- Christopher Blair
- I'm afraid not. Not yet anyway.
- Joseph Khumalo
- Ah yes. Well we understand.
Talk to ANGEL
- Maverick! Did you hear what happened on the last patrol?
- Nearly all the pilots encountered enemy warships!
- And one of the Tactical officers said that there might be more Kilrathi in this area.
- Fortunately we are not alone in this sector.
- If we need combat more pilots, they will transfer personnel from the TCS Austin.
- I truly hope that we will not need those other pilots,
- but this could be an excellent chance to compare tactics with them, non?
Mission Briefing
Command Halcyon has called you to his office for a special briefing. Tartarus System, near Kilrathi lines
- Peter Halcyon
- Come in Maverick, I need to speak to you.
- Christopher Blair
- Yes sir?
- Peter Halcyon
- I have a mission for you. One that's vitally important to our cause.
- We have been contacted by a Kilrathi Colonel who wishes to defect.
- I need you to fly out to meet him and guide him back to the Tiger's Claw .
- He will be in a Dralthi, and we want that ship intact.
- Do whatever is necessary to keep it that way, understood?
- Christopher Blair
- Yes sir!
- Peter Halcyon
- Good, the details of the mission are already entered into your flight recorder.
- If you encounter the enemy, remember. Your first priority is the safety of that Dralthi.
- If you can get a clear shot on 'em go ahead, but don't risk the mission.
- You'll be in a Rapier.
- That's all, dismissed.

- The trip back was uneventful.
- Peter Halcyon
- Good, I couldn't have hoped for better results.

- Thank you, sir.
- Peter Halcyon
- Yes, very well then. Dismissed.

- Peter Halcyon
- Maverick, the loss of that Dralthi and it's pilot is quite unfortunate.
- Luckily, the Colonel's wingman made it through to the Austin.

- The captured Dralthi is to be modified and transfered to the claw for study.
- Let's have your report Lt.
- Christopher Blair
- Yes sir. I ran into a few wings of Kilrathi on the way.
- I eventually got away, but when I got to the Colonel, he was under attack.
- He had already taken a great deal of damage.
- I just wasn't able to save him sir. I'm Sorry
- Peter Halcyon
- All is not lost Maverick, though we could have used that second Dralthi,
- very well then. Dismissed.
