Talk to Taryn Cross
- CROSS
- Finished your mapping loop, $CS?
- PLAYER
- Yeah, the information's on my flight disc. And I found Garrovick.
- You didn't tell me he was a raving lunatic, Taryn.
- CROSS
- Garrovick isn't crazy, he's one of our best pilots!
- Thank God you brought him back!
- PLAYER
- Uh, well...actually, I didn't.
- CROSS
- What?!
- PLAYER
- Garrovick was out of his mind, Taryn. He fired on me for no reason.
- CROSS
- Whatever attacked his ship must've been so frightening it drove him mad.
- PLAYER
- That's what bothers me. I can't believe the pirates did all this.
- Which means there's a new player in the sector.
- One tough enough to end the game. So where do we go from here?
- CROSS
- Keep exploring. What else can we do? I have maps to prepare.
- I'll pay you 10,000 credits to make another mapping run...

Talk to Taryn Cross
- CROSS
- Back already, eh? Did you turn your flight disc over to Cartography?
- PLAYER
- To tell the truth, I haven't left yet.
- CROSS
- Look, I know it's dangerous out there, but if you can't take the heat...
- PLAYER
- Hey, no sweat. I'm not afraid. Things come up, you know?
- CROSS
- All I know is, the ES brass are breathing down my neck.
- They're interested in the sector, and they're pressuring me to finish up.
- Listen, pilot through the Beta system and use the jump point there...
- ...which should take you to the uncharted Gamma system.
- Fly the loop pattern in your nav comp by hitting each nav point in sequence...
- ...complete the mapping spiral through Gamma and hurry back here to collect your 10,000.
Rejected
Talk to Taryn Cross
- CROSS
- Thinking twice before bailing out? Smart boy.
- This is easy money if ever there was such a thing.
- All you need to do is pilot through the Beta system and use the jump point there...
- ...which should take you to the uncharted Gamma system.
- Fly the loop pattern in your nav comp by hitting each nav point in sequence...
- ...complete the mapping spiral through Gamma and hurry back here to collect your 10,000 credits.
- PLAYER
- Sounds easy enough...
- ...so why are unmentionable portions of my body spontaneously puckering?
- CROSS
- Don't let the disappearances bother you. Just focus on the mission at hand, okay?

Talk to Taryn Cross
- PLAYER
- Look, you don't have to tell me. I know I screwed up.
- CROSS
- Yeah, you did. It hurts me to say this, because I like you...
- ...but I'm afraid you're fired.
- We need results, $CS. And I don't want to sit around this god-forsaken sector forever.
- PLAYER
- Hey, I'll try harder, I'll work faster...
- CROSS
- Sorry, $NM...you had your chance and you blew it.
- I wish you luck. Good-bye.
Privateer Playtester's Guide
TARYN CROSS - MISSION C
| Summary | Taryn decides to keep exploring despite the presence of whatever it was that drove Garrovick to madness. Discovering Kilrathi out here only reinforces your impression that the Confederation and Kilrathi are both on to something - something you hope to find first. |
| Payment | 10,000 credits. |
| Requirements | Hit all nav points and return to Rygannon. |
| Opponents | The Kilrathi have surveyed Gamma before you, and are not happy to see you. There are three Dralthi at Nay I in Gamma; three Dralthi at Nan 2 in Gamma, with a second wave of two Gothri and a third wave of them more Dralthi; and three Gothri at Nan 4, followed by a Kamekh (confident novice) escorted by another Gothri. The Gothri pilots are all fanatical aces and the Dralthi pilots are all fanatical pros. |
- On the way to this mission, you will encounter a lot of random pirates and Kilrathi. Until you get to the new system, do not rake needless damage or waste your ammo. You should talk your way out of the random encounters by using the communication options and choosing the appropriate response. - "Eagle"
- Once in the system, you will be immediately attacked. I took care of them by missiles and taming a lot of different directions. Try firing a set of missiles at each to keep them from attacking at the same time. The first nav you will want to go to is Nav 4: if you're in the asteroid field, just afterburner out the direction you came and bait them out. take the escorts out, then the Kamekh from behind. At the other nav, you will want to use the afterburner technique and take them out one by one. – "Havoc"
