Preflight Conversations
Talk to Shotglass
- Shotglass
- Hello, Maverick. What will it be?
- Christopher Blair
- The usual, Sam, Any news?
- Shotglass
- None to speak of. There is a rumor that the strike will be any minute now.
- But it's just a rumor.
- If you ask me, though, I think that's the smartest thing we could do right now.
- Christopher Blair
- Hit 'em hard and fast, that's how I'd do it. Use surprise to our advantage.
- Shotglass
- We're giving those cats too much time to prepare.
- But, I'm not in charge and the Admiral doesn't ask me, so I keep my opinions to myself.
Talk to Knight
- Joseph Khumalo
- Haven't seen you in a while, Maverick. That's my own fault, though.
- I haven't felt very social lately, I'm not sure why, but I've had this feeling of doom hanging over me for a while now,
- like I'm not going to make it back next time. But I've come back every time, so, who knows…
Talk to Jazz
- Zach Colson
- Hey Maverick, will you join us? I was just telling Knight here about some of those manuevers you were using on that last mission.
- That was some nice flying, by the way, maybe some time you can show them to me?
- Christopher Blair
- Sure, Jazz, after this campaign, when I'm a little less tense.
- Zach Colson
- All worked up? Yeah, I know how that goes. I'm real excited about the base assault. When do you think it will happen?
- Christopher Blair
- I don't know. Whenever the Admiral feels like it, I guess.
Mission Briefing
Mission Briefing. Jakarta System
- Peter Halycon
- Settle down, people, it's time to get to work. There's a convoy of Kilrathi ships coming through.
- They've finally realized we're going to strike their base and are rushing to get defenses in place.
- If we can take out this convoy it will make our job later that much easier.
You listen as the Commander makes the assignments
- …and Maverick, you and Jazz will be Xi wing. Your assignment is a direct strike on the convoy.
- Fly directly to Nav 1 and wreak as much havoc as possible.
- Transports are a priority, as they are most likely to be carrying weapons.
- Other than that, take out all you can. Any questions?
- Christopher Blair
- No sir.
- Zach Colson
- No sir.
- Peter Halcyon
- That's all. Pilots, prepare for launch.
Mission Debriefing
Mission Debriefing.
- Peter Halcyon
- Report, Maverick.
- Christopher Blair
- Yes sir. Upon arrival at Nav 1 we sighted 3 Lumbari a Fralthi and numerous fighters.
- None of the big ships survived, and most of the fighters were destroyed as well.
- Peter Halcyon
- Excellent, that's just the kind of report I like to hear. Well, lets go over the details.
- The recorder shows you credited with killing 11, Maverick. Jazz didn't take down any enemy ships.
- Well, get some rest pilots. Dismissed.
Hanger Deck
- Peter Halcyon
- For excellence in combat with the Kilrathi enemy,
- the Terran Confederation is proud to present the Gold Star.
- Your courage is an example to the confederations finest defenders.
- Well done Maverick, congratulations.
- Christopher Blair
- Thank you, sir!
