The Memoirs of Lieutenant Colonel Carl T. LaFong

Preflight Conversations

Talk to SHOTGLASS

So, Maverick, here we are in the Venice System, in the heart of Kilrathi space.
Course, the hairballs have their own name for it ... Kharak Tar, I think.
Its habitable planet is a water world, like Port Hedland's.
We call it Venice 'cause of ancient ruins on it, sinkin' into the ocean.
But the Killie-cats aren't supposed to like the water...
...so they put their base in the system in an orbital station.
Tactical thinks if we find that station and take it out...
...we'll take out the brains of the Kilrathi operations in the whole sector!

Talk to HUNTER

Maverick, mate I understand we'll be flyin' together for a while.
Colonel's just moved me over to Black Lion squadron and Rapier fighters.
I can't wait to get out in one of these new Rapiers, mate!
As I recall, she's got both lasers and neutron guns, right?
The lasers were designed for firin' at a distance...
...an' the neutron guns for extra punch up close!

Talk to PALADIN

Och, laddy, glad to 'ear that Khajja bloke was done in.
I 'ad a run in with Khajja a while back.
'E's the coldest furball I've ever seen!
I was flyin' with Dragon, out of Yellowjacket squadron...
We ran into Khajja the Fang while we were flyin' watchdog on a tanker.
We shot 'is wingmen to bits, and put 'is own shields and lasers out...
...but still 'e keeps comin'
We're tight on is tail, but 'e holds 'iscourse and fires off a missile.
One shot, right up the tanker's tailpipe, and she blows, big as day!
An' while Dragon an' me are dodgin' 'er debris...
...the hairy bastard makes 'is escape!
