Preflight Conversations

Talk to SHOTGLASS

Good morning, Major. How's tricks?

Have you seen the news trids that they're showin' in the mess hall lately?

Mostly reruns, last I saw.

I mean, can't we ever get any new shows? What happened to the Confederate News Network?

It's getting harder to know what's going on before everyone else does around here.

After all, I've got a reputation as an omniscient bartender to uphold.

Talk to HUNTER

Say there, mate. Got a minute?

I've 'ad a chat with the Colonel. 'E says we'll be flyin' together soon.

Let me give you a few notes on my style...before we launch.

Right off, I'm not as crazy as some people say. I've just got me own ways.

Long as we take a crack at any fuzzballs we see, I'll be 'appy.

Also, it never 'urts to check out ev'ry angle. Even if that means going against the plan.

After all, you just might find something you'd miss otherwise.

Talk to ICEMAN

Major.

Looks like we've got the hairballs on the run.

But I won't sleep well until they're out of the sector...

Still, I'd like to get my hands on one of them...

...face to face...

...to answer for what they did to my family on Vega VII!

Mission Briefing

Mission Briefing. Kurasawa System, 06:00 hours, 2654.283.

Peter Halcyon

All right, people...here's what we've got.

We've received a tight-band transmission from the Formidable, an Exeter-class destroyer.

She's just come from a scrap, and she's in rough shape.

Your mission will be to rendezvous with her, and guard her against further attack.

Hunter and Waxman, you get the duty. Hunter will fly lead.

Christopher Blair

Excuse me, sir?

I served on the Formidable back at the Academy.

If possible, I'd like this mission.

Peter Halcyon

Very well, Maverick, you and Bossman get the nod. Maverick will take the lead.

Christopher Blair

Thank you, sir.

Peter Halcyon

Here's the flight plan.

Computer, display Chi.

You are to proceed directly to the Formidable, which jumped in at Nav 1.

The destroyer has reported a minefield between Nav 1 and the Claw.

Once you've arrived at the rendezvous point,you'll escort the destroyer back here.

You should return via Nav 2, and avoid the minefield entirely.

Be on guard. The Kilrathi would love to take out an Exeter-class ship.

Dismissed.

Mission Debriefing

Mission Debriefing. 15:00 hours, 2654.283.

Peter Halcyon

Good to have you back. What's the status of the destroyer?

Christopher Blair

She's been put into tow, and is powering down for repairs.

Peter Halcyon

Good. You've earned us one more ship we have to use against the hairballs.

Both of you have done a fine job out there.

Let's review your performance...

Maverick, you destroyed 6 of the Kilrathi fighters.

and Bossman killed 4.

Why don't you go and see Commander Della Guardia on the Formidable?

She's already asked to meet her escort.

Dismissed.

Win / Lose Series

Meanwhile…

Primitive alien village, Rostov System.

As the Kilrathi fleet flees Rostov before the advancing Human warships, a handful of Kilrathi marines are stranded on Rostov’s jungle world, where they are captured by the native sentients, the Mopoks.
