'''Talk to Informant'''
'''Beg for Forgiveness'''
 
: '''PILGRIM'''
: Greetings, convert! Welcome to the bliss of Eden.
: There is no suffering here.
: Your clothing is strange. You have just arrived, yes?
: You may be initiated in the temple.


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: You were looking for me?
: I see. Thank you.


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''PILGRIM'''
: Yes, $NM, I'm glad you've come.
: Ah, soon the glory of the Church of Man will spread throughout the stars.
: Normally, I'd consider a privateer like you far too risky to confide in.
: Soon our great leader will vanquish the infidels and bring us peace.
: But your recent destruction of Kahl and Menesch gives me faith in your trustworthiness.
: My clothing belies my true calling. I am a member of the Church of Man.  


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Go on.
: May I ask a question about our great leader?


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''PILGRIM'''
: I am one of Mordecai Jones's elite counselors.
: Of course, of course.
: I, like all my brethren, have sworn to accomplish the destruction of all technology.
: And I believe that our ends justify the means we use.
: What do you think, $NM? 


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Sorry, but I think you guys are nuts.  
: Where is he? I was, er, supposed to fly with him,
: but I have been left behind.


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''PILGRIM'''
: So I expected. But our interests may coincide for a little while.
: He flies directly toward our beautiful gray moon.
: Let me tell you the story of Mordecai Jones.
: Perhaps you should do the same.
: He was unknown when he joined the Church of Man five years ago.
: Alas that your initiation will be postponed.
: He started as a ship technician, but by virtue of his astounding eloquence and technical skill,
: he quickly attained a position of leadership. Within a year, he commanded a Church battalion.
: Within three years, he was an Elite Guard Commander. He was soon in a position equal to my own.
: When His Holiness Father Benengeli, the previous Church Leader, died a year ago,
: it was revealed that he had appointed Mordecai Jones as his successor.
: Jones's leadership brought the Church a stunning string of victories.
: He provided us with new Kilrathi ships and stronger arms.
: And, of course, our new secret weapon. I believe it is known to you.  


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: My gun?
: Yeah, alas.
 
: '''PILGRIM'''
: Farewell. I must return to my meditation.
 
===In Flight===
 
'''Talk to Jones'''


: '''INFORMANT'''
: # Let's begin the service. It's a good day for a bounty.
: Yes. The Steltek super-weapon. Church engineers have already learned how to duplicate it.
: # Where's the gun, then I'll kill you.
: The copies have been used experimentally. Mass production is imminent.
: # My finger's itching
: I don't believe your Confederation can withstand such a powerful force.
: # You gave the gun to the Kilrathi?


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''JONES'''
: That's for sure. But I thought you were disgruntled.  
: Trespasser! You fly in sacred space! The Church of Man is mighty! We will not tolerate the transgressions, Of those serving a false god! Soon, all of Gemini will be wiped clean, With our Righteous Fire!
: This whole situation seems perfect for you.
 
'''Elite Guars is Destroyed'''
 
: '''JONES'''
: Fool! My elite guards cannot be defeated!
 
'''Elite Guars is Destroyed'''
 
: '''JONES'''
: How can it be? My guards!
 
'''Jones is Destroyed'''
 
: '''COM_EDN'''
: Brother Jones! I shall avenge you!


: '''INFORMANT'''
===Completed===
: Oh, it is. The average Churchman's dreams seem about to be realized.
: But my high rank gives me access to some closely guarded secrets.
: Six months ago, I accidentally came upon some transmissions from Jones to Governor Menesch.
: They mentioned 'the Ulterior Motive.' A plan I had never heard of.
: My suspicions were aroused. Further research revealed the nature of this plan.
: In summary, it led to Jones's domination of Gemini,
: and gave Menesch a great deal of power and wealth.
: When the entire region was secure, Jones would dismantle the Church of Man.
: He planned to use Churchmen as a police force.
: No ultimate destruction of technology. Only megalomania.
: It's an old story, $NM. Somehow, though, I'm surprised that it's worked again.


: '''PLAYER'''
'''Beg for Forgiveness'''
: That's some pretty wild stuff.


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''PILGRIM'''
: It is. I have taken a leave of absence from my Church duties,
: Alas! Woe to us all!
: hoping to find some means of stopping Jones.
: Our leader has been stricken down!
: Time is short. But I think you can save us. I have a plan.  
: His mighty temple, destroyed.
: You have survived and returned for initiation,
: but in vain. The light shines in the temple no longer.


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Save you? So that you can wipe out the Confederation anyway? No thanks.  
: Darn. Guess I'd better be going, then.
: I like my electric razors and my holovids.  


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''PILGRIM'''
: I understand your concern. So I'll offer you a deal.
: The tears of the faithful will flood the land.
: If you succeed in destroying Jones,
: A new, dark age has risen for the Church of Man.
: I give you my word that we will destroy all copies of the Steltek gun.
: Will we survive? I do not know.
: Additionally, your name will be removed from the Church Hit List.  


: '''PLAYER'''
'''Talk to Sociologist'''
: Pretty crazy. Your word is all I have.


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''MONTE'''
: That is true. Of course, during the mission you will discover our headquarters.
: Greetings, $NM. I thank you for your service.
: If you wish, you can inform the Confederation and they can eventually destroy it.
: But I must also warn you that I am once again your mortal enemy.
: We will be forced to relocate. Very costly and disruptive.
: I am a man of my word, and will carry out my promise.
: But it is worth it to me.  
: All plans and copies of the Steltek gun will be destroyed.
: In return, you must refrain from revealing the location of Eden to the Confederation.


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Why me? Why not take this to the Confederation?  
: The Confederation would pay a lot for that information. What's to stop me?  


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''MONTE'''
: A large fleet would be detected too far in advance. The jump tunnel could be blocked.
: Only the threat of vengeance.
: There is no other pilot in Gemini with your reputation for success.
: And your conscience, if you have one.
: I'm afraid you are my only hope.  
: $NM, our acquaintance has been brief, and we will not meet again.
: Farewell, infidel.


: '''PLAYER'''
'''Talk to Admiral Terrell'''
: What are the details of the mission?


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''TERRELL'''
: You are to fly to the Valhalla system. There is a secret jump tunnel there.  
: Brilliant work. Gemini and the Confederation owe you another debt.
: It's too bad so few people know about your heroic actions. 
: If they did, you'd be the most popular man in Gemini.


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Secret? How does that work?
: Flattery will get you nowhere, Admiral.
: I'm not going to join the Navy. Period.  


: '''INFORMANT'''
: '''TERRELL'''
: We have contacts at the Exploratory Services.
: Maybe not, but who knows what the future will bring? 
: They have removed it from official records.
: Anyway, I assume you've been paid?
: Do not worry. I will enter the coordinates into your ship's navigation system.
: After locating the tunnel, you must jump to a new system called Eden.
: There you will find Jones and members of his elite guard.
: You must destroy them all. Return here afterwards.

WC:CIC Game Guide

Description

You have met the Informant before while working for Monte. Now the Informant wants you to take out Jones. The Informant tells you of Jones' plans, why he wants Jones dead, and the location of a secret Retro base. You are to fly to this base and find out where Jones is.

Objectives

Fly to Valhalla system and find the secret jump point to Eden system. Jump to Eden and land on Gaea base.

Find out where Jones is, then find and destroy him. When complete, return to Drake base in Capello.

Scripted Encounters

Retros at both Nav points in Eden

Notes

  • It is a long flight to the base, and to make matters worse you must be sure not to take any damage or use any missiles because you still have the main battle left, not forgetting the trip back to Drake. Where possible, avoid encounters and just afterburn away as fast as you can. Once you reach the Retro base Gaea, beg for forgiveness at the temple. There you will learn how to find Jones.
  • Jones is heading towards the moon. Take off, turn towards the moon (changing to the Chase Camera may help you find it) and fly in that direction. Afterburn if you want to make the journey quicker. When you are around 40,000m away from Gaea, Jones will appear.
  • Jones will stay away, so take out his his guards first. You'll face 13 of them, all in the Salthis bought from the Kilrathi. After that, on to Jones. He is flying a Centurion which is quite strongly shielded and armored. To make matters worse, he is quite fond of ramming you so make sure to save a few missiles for him. Once you are finished with him, land at Gaea, save, then head back to Drake.
  • The Informant thanks you for taking out Jones. At this point, continue on to Perry to report to Admiral Terrell. He'll give you the 20,000 for the mission you flew for him before you got sidetracked. He'll thank you for taking out Jones and say goodbye. Talk to him again for the little Credits chat. Congratulations... you win!

Mission : Jones Mission

Comments : A hidden jump point is near the asteroids when you fly towards the moon to fight Jones. It makes getting home to Perry a lot easiar. Land on Gaea first, have a gut laugh at the crumbled shrine, then fly back to the moon and hit the jump.

Mission :

Comments : The jump point goes to Rikel. Also, if you went back for the 20,000 before going to Gaea, Terrel offers you a large sum for killing Jones, like 80,000.

Mission :

Comments : Hidden jump point? It's not hidden, you're supposed to see it. It is not possible not to discover the jump point, when you are fighting Jones and his army. And nobody in the world could resist using the jump point, so everybody knows it leads to Rikel.
