Storyline

TCS Concordia, Novaya Kiev System Enigma Sector
Barracks, TCS Concordia.
MAVERICK Paladin! Glad to see you're still on board. Guess you've heard about Olympus... PALADIN Aye, laddie, that I have. I dinna believe it, though. You're not the kind to sit on the side lines... MAVERICK Might as well have... There were just too many of them. No matter what I do, his Lordship the Admiral will twist it around to make me look bad. PALADIN So ye're flyin' ta make a hero of yourself, then? MAVERICK No, James. I'm flying to stop the damn furballs from conquering our whole race! PALADIN Then what does it matter what Tolwyn thinks of you? Or anyone else? MAVERICK Because if Tolwyn gets his wish, I'll never fly against the Kilrathi again! PALADIN An' if that happens, me offer stands. MAVERICK Thanks, James, but I can do more good here, as long as I can keep flying. PALADIN Perhaps, lad. But there's more than one way ta fight a war... MAVERICK What are you talking about, James? Just what are you into? PALADIN I canna tell ye, lad... unless you're willin' ta sign on. But in the meantime, Christopher, you watch yourself. After the attack on Ghorah Khar, the cats have pulled back... ...forcing the Concordia to check out Novaya Kiev. But it makes no sense for the Kilrathi to pull back now. The cats are preparin' for something big, I'm sure of it.

Mission Briefing

Flight Deck, TCS Concordia.

ANGEL I have an urgent mission for you, mon ami. I need you to launch immediately. You will fly a Broadsword, and assist... ...an attack force in an assault against a Fralthra cruiser. The top brass have ordered our retreat to Novaya Kiev... ...but sometimes the best defense is a good offense. You must be careful. We are getting energy readings... ...along the cruiser's flank... Almost certainly, there are Kilrathi fighters lurking in this system. Your Broadsword's Nav computer will have complete data on this. MAVERICK Will I have a wingman? ANGEL Mais oui, Maverick. Doomsday and the assault wing will meet you on the Flight Deck. MAVERICK No problem, Angel. I'm on my way.

ANGEL Welcome back, messieurs. ...please give me your report. MAVERICK At Nav 1, we were ambushed by several Drakhri.
Visited Nav 2			Skipped Nav 2
We headed to Nav 2 to engage the Fralthra cruiser. A battle fleet was already in-system---a wing of Jalkehi. Doomsday and I joined the Broadswords to engage the enemy...			We didn't go to Nav 2, it just didn't feel right... ANGEL Now I have to send out another flight. Maverick, you try my patience. But of course, I have it all in this report....

We lost one of the younger pilots today...Dallas, flying on Stingray's wing. Maverick, I know you and Doomsday wish to prove yourselves... But I do not want to lose any more pilots. That is all, gentlemen. Dismissed.
