'''Talk to Dr. Monkhouse'''
'''Talk to Taryn Cross'''


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Dr. Monkhouse, I presume.
: Excuse me, I'm looking for Taryn Cross.  


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: Yes, you do, greatly.
: You've found her.  So...you gonna slit my throat, or just rob me?
: I wish to be alone.
: Don't let my clothes fool you.  They're a little rough, but times have been hard...  


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Sorry, Doc, but I didn't run the blockade just to be treated like a vaccum salesman.
: ...which leads me to the point.  I'm looking for work...
: I need a favor.  I understand you're an expert on alien...antiquities.  
: ...and you heard that the Exploratory Service takes anyone, is that it?


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: That I am, but my consulting price is currently transportation off this rock.
: That's a misconception, I'm afraid.  Our work is hazardous, yes,...
: ...but not all our employees sport scars and pirate hats.
: The job requires brains as well as blasters, Mister...?


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Say no more, climb into my ship and we're out of here.
: $NM.  Or you may have heard me going by $CS.  
: Please believe me, I'm not looking for a handout, just a job.  
: I have all the qualifications you're looking for...  
: ...an eye for detail, a nose for trouble and a butt that's never been kicked.


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: Heavens no! Not while the blockade is in effect!
: Suppose I'll have to check that out for myself...later.
: I shall sit tight until that unfortunate situation is ended.
: Okay, $CS. If you want the job, you're in...on a per mission basis.
: Should you wish to facilitate that circumstance, head for Basra.
: Right now I need someone for a potentially dangerous assignment.
: From what I understand, the resistance is centered there.
: I'm in charge of charting maps for the sector.
: The ES has lost a number of ships in the Delta system...
: ...and through jump point Delta, which remains unexplored.
: Could be Kilrathi, a singularity or black magic.  No one knows...
: ...but I'll pay you 10,000 credits to find out.

: You'll leave Rygannon, travel to the Delta system and scout it through 4 nav points.
: The navigational info you'll need will be programmed into your nav computer.
: Basically, for charting purposes, you'll be flying a small loop...
: ...and standard nav points which make up the loop have been calculated.
: Simply hit all the nav points, return here safely...  
: ...and we'll download what we need from your flight disc...and pay you, of course.

: Basra, huh?  All right...I'll look into it.  
: Sounds pretty easy.
 
: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: You do that.  I'll be right here, waiting.

'''Talk to Dr. Monkhouse'''
: '''CROSS'''
: Easy?  We've lost three vessels so far.


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Ah, Dr. Monkhouse.  I'm glad to see you.
: Yeah, but did those pilots have scars or pirate hats?


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: I wish I could say the same. I'm not receiving visitors right now, young man.
: Neither.  
: I wish to be alone. 


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Sorry, Doc, but I didn't run the blockade to take no for an answer.  
: Then get ready to strike ''Here there be dragons'' from your map, Ms. Cross.
: Listen, I have this alien artifact, and I....
 
: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: Don't speak to me about extraterrestrial artifacts!  I'm sick of them!
: I nearly got killed here because of my work.  You've heard of the Steltek?
: Well, suffice it to say, I recovered an interesting piece of Steltek manufacture...
: ...a piece which interested certain corrupt corporate interests who shall be nameless.
: All I need is a libel suit on top of everything else.
 
: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: What's your name?

: It'll be a pleasure, Mr. $NM.  Good luck.

: $NM.  My handle is $CS.
: Somehow the idea doesn't grab me.  Got anything else?


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: Well listen, $NM.  I was kidnapped and brought to Palan by men who wanted my artifact...
: Not at the moment.  
: ...and then I was nearly killed in last month's bombing attacks.
: Thank God my kidnappers were buried beneath the rubble of the interrogation compound.


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: And what happened to your artifact?
: Then I'll pass.  Thanks anyway.


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: Never you mind about my artifact.  What do you want of me?

: '''PLAYER'''
===Accepted===
: I have an artifact of my own.  I want you to tell me what it is.


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
'''Talk to Taryn Cross'''
: I'd consider it...in exchange for transportation off-world.
: If you'll fly me to Basra refinery base in the Palan system...
: ...I'll help you solve this puzzle. 


: '''PLAYER'''
: '''PLAYER'''
: Basra refinery base? It's not exactly vacation central. Why go there?
: Just as I suspected...all talk and no action. You disappoint me, $CS.
: You should have left Rygannon and charted the nav points in Delta system by now.  


: '''MONKHOUSE'''
: '''CROSS'''
: It's the nearest base, and I detest space travel in cramped quarters.
: I'll get around to it sooner or later.
: I'll charter a luxury liner back to civilization later.

'''The Artifact.''' The artifact you possess, Monkhouse tells you, is both a treasure map and a Rosetta Stone from the Stelteks. You strike an agreement to join the Exploratory Services in Rygannon and seek out any possible treasure as long as Monkhouse gets to publish all findings.

Dr. Monkhouse is willing to give you any information he can on your artifact, but first he wants a change of surroundings.
The Taryn Cross missions consist of patrolling unexplored systems. However these systems aren't totally unexplored since various enemies already know about them. There are also a large number of asteroids in the area. Other than that, these are simply patrol missions. Remember, you're meant to reach within 1000 klicks of each Nav point.

===Notes===


* Upon launching from Palan, you are greeted by your first scripted Kilrathi force. It consists of around 3 Dralthi and 3 Gothri fighters.
* The reason Cross has been losing every ship she sends to Delta is that the place is swarming with pirates. Take them out and report back to Cross.
* This can be quite a firefight especially with those Gothris since they are strong and have a rapid firing rear turret. They'll also quite happily ram you. Your only hope is to let the missiles fly. This should distract them long enough for you to take out one of the enemies. Repeat the strategy as best as you can, but it may take several attempts to get right.
* When you first land on Basra, Lynn Murphy is in the bar. Talk to her to get your final payment of 15,000 credits.
* When done, Dr. Monkhouse will be in her place. He will give you your 5,000 fee and will examine your artifact. He happens to have a similar artifact, and joined with yours, they make a map and a complete Steltek alphabet. Dr. Monkhouse programs the Steltek alphabet into your computer in case it comes in useful, but the locations marked on the map are currently uncharted. Your only hope is to chart them yourself with the Exploratory Services.
Head to Rygannon and find Taryn Cross in the bar.

Description

The Taryn Cross missions consist of patrolling unexplored systems. However these systems aren't totally unexplored since various enemies already know about them. There are also a large number of asteroids in the area. Other than that, these are simply patrol missions. Remember, you're meant to reach within 1000 klicks of each Nav point.

Objectives

Travel to Delta system and patrol 4 Nav points then return to Rygannon.

Scripted Encounters

Pirates at least once in Delta

Notes

  • The reason Cross has been losing every ship she sends to Delta is that the place is swarming with pirates. Take them out and report back to Cross.
