Initial Offer
Talk to Tayla
- TAYLA
- What took you so long, $CS? Rough day at the office?
- PLAYER
- Business before banter, Tayla. The money.
- TAYLA
- Relax, $CS. The first installment is right here.
- PLAYER
- That's better. Now tell me about the artifact.
- Why would Sandoval just hand it over if it's so valuable?
- TAYLA
- Maybe he got a sore neck from watching his back all the time.
- How's your neck feeling? Getting sore yet?
- PLAYER
- No...but I don't intend to let you get behind me, Tayla.
- TAYLA
- Wrong, ace. I've never whacked anyone for profit.
- Now, your next job is to run a load of Brilliance to Hector mining base in Troy.
- The run pays 15,000 credits...too much for such an easy job, if you ask me.

Talk to Tayla
- TAYLA
- Hey, I just spoke with my contact on Oakham.
- They told me you still haven't delivered the cargo!
- PLAYER
- Something came up, sweetheart. You know how it is.
- TAYLA
- Sure do. Unless you transport that load of plastic to Oakham...
- ...deviating from your flight path to Newcastle to throw off pursuit...
- ...you can forget about the 10,000 credits!
- PLAYER
- Okay, okay, no need to panic. I'll get to it.
- And why should I worry about being followed if my cargo's legit?
- TAYLA
- Consider it a competency test.
- You know the rest...?
- PLAYER
- Yeah. Once I arrive, I should leave my ship unattended, right?
- TAYLA
- If you want to make a profit, yeah.
- And don't go shooting up any pirates there!
- You work for me, so they'll leave you alone...unless you get trigger happy.
- Meet me in the bar at Oakham when you're done. And step on it!
Rejected
Talk to Tayla
- TAYLA
- Back, huh? I figured you'd change your mind.
- PLAYER
- That remains to be seen.
- TAYLA
- Look, it's a great deal.
- Your cargo will consist of nothing but plastics...completely legal.
- Supposedly you'll be running it to Newcastle, but actually...
- ...you'll divert to Oakham, a hidden pirate base, and dock.
- You won't have any trouble with the pirates because you work for me.
- Once there, leave your ship unattended and meet me in the bar there at Oakham for your pay.
- In exchange for the service, I'll pay you 10,000 credits. And don't forget...
- ...I have information on the artifact, info I'll share...if you fly for me.
- So...is it a deal?

Privateer Playtester's Guide
TAYLA - MISSION A
| Summary | You'll need to make an illegal run of Brilliance to Hector mining base (Troy). |
| Payment | 15,000 credits. |
| Requirements | Deliver cargo to Hector without getting destroyed by the militia, then return to Oakham for Tayla's next mission. |
| Opponents | 3 hostile militia Talons at Nav 3 and Nav 4 in Troy. Note that all pirates in Pentonville are friendly as long as you work for Tayla. |
- This mission can be a little tricky and you'll probably have to load the game back up a few times. The best way to do this mission is make sure aall you do is afterburner through the jump points as quickly as possible. There will be militia and Confederation ships all around trying to destroy you. You'll get a secret compartment in a couple of missions, so don't even try to fight these guys. - "Deetchman"
WC:CIC Game Guide
Description
After all that, Tayla tells you precious little about the artifact. And you have to fly another mission for her. At least you have the promised 10,000 credits. But now you have a much more risky mission to fly...
Objectives
Carry cargo of Brilliance to Hector mining base, land, then return to Oakham.
Scripted Encounters
Militia as soon as you enter Troy.
Notes
- The pirates near Pentonville still aren't attacking you, but further out they might and the Militia will if they scan you and detect the Brilliance. Only attack the Militia if you must though.
- You may find that once you deliver your cargo, the pirates attack you.

Mission : Tayla
Comments : on all of tayla's missions just afterburn past the patrols with a centurion, if you don't own a centurion i suggest that you take a break from the plot missions and earn enough to buy one.

Comments : you can easily afterburn past the patrols (or almost any enemy) with an orion too.

Comments : Got to 3rd base with Tayla. She's not nearly as sarcastic after she sees your ship and 'equipment.' Oh, that may be info she wouldn't like me tossing around. Forget I mentioned it.
