Initial Offer
Talk to Lynch
- LYNCH
- Ah, Captain $NM. I've been expecting you. I am Roman Lynch.
- PLAYER
- Mr. Lynch, as you know, what we have to discuss is...confidential.
- LYNCH
- Oh, you may speak freely around my assistant Miggs. He is exceedingly loyal.
- PLAYER
- Okay. As Tayla probably told you, I need information on an artifact...
- ...what it is, its history and, most of all, its value.
- LYNCH
- Of course. I have examined the holo your associate Tayla provided me.
- I believe I could shed some light on this mystery...given the right motivation.
- For example, there is a certain pilot who has caused me much professional embarrassment.
- Could you take care of him for me, Captain?
- PLAYER
- You must be joking. I'm no assassin.
- MIGGS
- You want I should take $NM outside the airlock and teach him how to suck vacuum?
- LYNCH
- Gentlemen, please, let us remain professional.
- $NM, I only want you to find the man and deliver a personal message for me.
- Simply tell him how profoundly displeased and...disappointed I am with him.
- Do this, and I will pay you 10,000 credits, as well as investigate this artifact of yours. Agreed?

Accepted
Talk to Lynch
- LYNCH
- Ah, $NM. How did Captain Seelig react to my chastisement?
- PLAYER
- Actually, I haven't taken him the message yet.
- LYNCH
- I must admit, I'm surprised.
- I suppose you're not as curious regarding the artifact as I had thought.
- PLAYER
- You suppose wrong. I just got...delayed. Trust me...
- ...I'll scour the nav points in the Pentonville system, find the Hooded Hawk...
- ...and tell Captain Seelig just how disappointed you are with him.
- LYNCH
- I hope so. Unless you succeed, I fear I'll be quite incapable of helping you.
- PLAYER
- Or quite unwilling.
- LYNCH
- Either way, neither of us profits. Remember that.
Rejected
Talk to Lynch
- LYNCH
- Well, if it isn't $NM. Have you reconsidered?
- PLAYER
- I'm waiting to be convinced.
- LYNCH
- Your services are not indispensible to me...however, I'll humor you this time.
- I want you to fly to the Pentonville System.
- There you will locate a man named Seelig, captain of the Hooded Hawk.
- I wish you to tell him how profoundly...disappointed I am in him.
- For that service I will pay you 10,000 credits...
- ...and provide you with information regarding the object once you return here.
- So...either accept my deal, or stop wasting my time.

Miggs
Talk to Miggs
- MIGGS
- You don't wanna talk to me, 'cause I don't wanna talk to you.
- And anyone that makes me do what I don't wanna do gets hurt, painwise, get me?
- Mr. Lynch, sitting over there, HE'S the one you wanna talk to...
- ...so either state your bidness or take a hike, buddy.
In Flight
Talk to Seelig
- # Hooded Hawk, come in.
- # I'm looking for a Captain Seelig.
- # I represent Roman Lynch.
- SEELIG
- Nice ship, Captain. How about a little tour?
- # Sorry, but we have other business right now.
- SEELIG
- Okay, you got my attention. What do you want?
- # Roman Lynch is very disappointed in you.
- SEELIG
- He is, is he?
- # Yes.
- # No.
- SEELIG
- Want to hear our response? Well, here it comes...
Failure
Talk to Lynch
PLAYER
- Sorry I haven't been coming up with the goods, but I'll do better next time.
- LYNCH
- Regrettably, there shall be no next time.
- Your services are no longer required, $NM. Good day to you.
PLAYER
- What, you're cutting me off just because of one mess up?
- We had a deal, damn it! You owe me information on that artifact!
- LYNCH
- That deal was not based upon failure.
- MIGGS
- Want me to explain it to him, Mr. Lynch?
- LYNCH
- No, Miggs. $NM is incompetent, not stupid. Good day to you, $CS...
- ...and trouble me no more!
Privateer Playtester's Guide
TAYLA - MISSION D
| Summary | This is yet another shipment of Brilliance to New Constantinople. This time, however, Tayla provides your ship with a secret compartment which will prevent your contraband from being detected. She finally promises to give you some information of substance about the artifact after this last mission. When you return, you learn that she has almost no information, but has arranged for you to meet with a mobster named Roman Lynch in the bar on New Constantinople. He is a collector of artifacts and a highly resourceful individual. |
| Payment | 10,000 credits and the installation of a secret compartment. |
| Requirements | Land at New Constantinople and return to Oakham. |
| Opponents | As you leave Oakham, you are accosted by William Riordian (confident ace in a Centurion), a rival for work from Tayla. When he finishes his conversation (assuming you let him survive that long), three other pirates in the vicininty decide to join him in attacking you (fanatical pros in Talons). If you go to Nav 2 without eliminating Riordian, he will meet you there with five hostile pirates (again, fanatical pros in Talons). All other pirates you meet during this mission are friendly. |
- OK! Now you've gotten the secret compartment and you're all ready to go. Take your time. When you get to New Constantinople and drop off your contraband, go ahead and pick up some furs, wood or generic foods, and you can make a nice profit when you return to Oakham. - "Deetchman"
Secret Compartment (20 cargo units). The secret compartment is yours to keep. It will automatically be moved to your new ship should you buy another one after this point in the plot. It will allow you to keep up to 20 cargo units of contraband above and beyond what your cargo hold can carry. If you purchase 30 units of Brilliance, the first 20 are placed in your secret compartment and the other 10 overflow into your regular cargo bay. The oppo-site is not true. If you were to try to buy 60 units of grain for the Orion with no cargo expan-sion, it would fill the hold at 50 units and then report "no room on ship," as it won't over-flow into the secret compartment. Goods in the secret compartment will not be expelled into space if you try to jettison all cargo.
WC:CIC Game Guide
Description
Tayla informs you of the artifact's history... and how each of its previous owners died... or were killed. But to find out more, you need to run more Brilliance. This time straight into the heart of Confed space: New Constantinople.
Objectives
Carry cargo of Brilliance to New Constantinople, land, then return to Oakham.

Notes
- Watch out for Riordian. He is flying a Centurion, and he also has friends. The odds are not in your favor.
- So after all that, Tayla isn't much help, you've become a criminal, and now you need to talk to the Mob Boss of Gemini Sector. So head back to New Constantinople and talk to Roman Lynch.

Mission : Tayla
Comments : on all of tayla's missions just afterburn past the patrols with a centurion, if you don't own a centurion i suggest that you take a break from the plot missions and earn enough to buy one.

Mission : orion
Comments : you can easily afterburn past the patrols (or almost any enemy) with an orion too.
