Mission Briefing

Initial Offer

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH

$NM. I trust you took care of my dear cousin.

PLAYER

Intersys was ready for us. But I got him to Romulus all right.

LYNCH

Excellent. Please accept this payment, 30,000 credits, with my warmest thanks.

But now, steel yourself for bad news.

Smythe, a man in my employ, found vital information regarding the artifact at the Oxford Library.

Unfortunately, Mr. Smythe is currently trapped on a base in the Newcastle System.

The authorities there, rife with corruption, have stopped me from...exerting my influence.

PLAYER

I see. What kind of information?

LYNCH

Smythe has not communicated that, but I believe our best chance of identifying your find...

...resides in the files at Oxford. Smythe has access to this information.

I'll pay you 30,000 credits to retrieve this man. It's in our mutual interest, after all. Deal?

Accept

LYNCH Smythe is on Liverpool. A small refinery in the Newcastle System. He'll be waiting for you in the bar there. PLAYER Look, why don't I just head for Oxford myself and locate the information? LYNCH Smythe is a data retrieval expert. You'd never find what you need alone. PLAYER Okay, I'll get him...but I hate to run off without giving Miggs a kiss. Where is he? LYNCH Miggs is currently eliminating a...labor difficulty. I'll convey your regards.

PLAYER I think I've gotten enough out of you. Our business is done. I'm headed for Oxford to find the information I need. LYNCH Smythe is an information retrieval expert. You'll never find what you need alone... ...but I suppose you'll need to learn that the hard way. You'll be back.

Accepted

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH

$NM, I am truly dismayed at your haphazard attitude regarding our business.

Unless you retrieve Smythe from the Newcastle System...

...our mutual search for information on the artifact is stymied.

PLAYER

We know he uncovered something at the Oxford library.

Why not go there?

LYNCH

Wasteful duplication of effort. Smythe knows what we want to know.

Better to retrieve him than to attempt to duplicate his research.

PLAYER

Okay, Lynch. I'll get him off...Liverpool, was it?

LYNCH

Yes, in Newcastle. And I'd advise you to hurry.

Return here afterwards with Smythe for your payment of 30,000 credits.

Accepted

Talk to Lynch

PLAYER

I've been thinking...maybe you're right.

Your man Smythe uncovered something important at Oxford...

...something it might take me months to locate on my own.

LYNCH

An optimistic estimate, I'm afraid. The Oxford stacks are voluminous.

We'll both be better off if you rescue Smythe.

I'm offering 30,000 credits for his return here, payable on delivery. Interested?

Accept	Refuse

In Flight

Talk to Miggs

# You're making me nervous.

# Hope you're not looking for trouble.

# Hey, what's going on here?

Hey, bright boy, guess who's in deep trouble? Mr. Lynch wants that artifact. I'm gonna count to ten. Then I start shootin'. One, two, uh ... Forget this! Start shootin' boys!

Privateer Playtester's Guide

ROMAN LYNCH - MISSION C

Summary	After your encounter with Kroiz, Lynch informs you that the artifact is indeed of alien origin and that the government would try to remove it from private ownership if they came to know of its existence. It is extremely valuable. He will continue looking into the matter in exchange for another mission. His cousin needs to get to Romulus (Castor) and you're the man for the job.
Payment	30,000 credits.
Requirements	Land at Romulus mining base (Castor) and return to New Constantinople.
Opponents	One wave of three hostile Confederation Stilettos (confident pros), then a second wave of three more Stilettos (confident aces) and a hos-tile Confederation Broadsword (a confident ace) at Nov 2 in Castor.

• Roman Lynch makes this mission sound so easy, except for the part about the confeds knowing about you escorting his cousin, who is a felon, off the planet and to Castor. The Stilettos are very fast seal, of course, the Broadsword will be there to destroy you as well. If you don't have the weapons or time to put up with these guys, afterburner to Castor and pray you make it there alive. — "Deetchman"

Description

A third mission... this one quite risky. Flying Lynch's cousin Regis to Romulus mining base and far from where Confed can get to him. High risk, high pay.

Objectives

Deliver Lynch's cousin Regis to Romulus Mining Base in Castor System, then return to New Constantinople and meet Lynch in the bar.

Scripted Encounters

Confed upon entering Castor system.

Notes

• The Confed forces in Castor system consist of a first wave of 3 ships, followed by a further 4, all flying Stilettos.

Mission : Roman

Comments : 1) No you don't have to shoot at Seelig, but how hard could it be to knock down one Talon? 2) Kroiz and his two buds are so easy to kill - just fly towards them and they'll smash into an asteroid and get killed without you having to do anything.
