Mission Briefing

Mission Briefing. Venice System, 06:00 hours, 2654.287.

Peter Halcyon
After extensive reconnaissance of this section of the Venice System...
...our patrols have located and identified a number of Kilrathi vessels.
In our next several missions, we'll be engaging and destroying these ships.
Our fighters will be working with fighters from the carrier Kyoto...
...which has recently joined us in the Venice System.
Maverick, you're first up with Nu wing.
I'll keep Hunter on your wing for now.
You'll be going after a Fralthi with a couple of the Kyoto's fighters.
Computer, display Nu.
You'll rendezvous with two Rapiers, Foxtrot Wing, from the Kyoto, here.
From this point, you'll proceed to Nav 1...
...skirting the edge of an asteroid field.
Then you'll head on to Nav 2, the last reported position of the Fralthi.
She can't be far from this point, and she's an awfully big bogie.
You shouldn't have any trouble finding her.
Questions?
Ian St. John
I'd guess a Fralthi'd have a fighter escort, Colonel...
Peter Halcyon
She'll be well-guarded. Tactical says to look for Gratha on wide patrol...
...and either Salthi or Krant flying close escort.
Anyone else?
Chen Kien
Have we gotten a position on the main Kilrathi base in the system, Colonel?
Peter Halcyon
Not yet, Kien, but Tactical's narrowed it down to a few possibilities.
If that's it, then let's get into space.
Squadron dismissed.

Mission Debriefing

Mission Debriefing. 09:00 hours, 2654.287.

Peter Halcyon
Nicely done, gentlemen.
Christopher Blair
Thank you, sir. That Fralthi was a tough--
Peter Halcyon
Oh, the Fralthi, that's unimportant compared to what was in your computer.
Tactical started analyzing your log as soon as you arrived and downloaded.
That Fralthi was in direct contact with the Kilrathi starbase...
...and Tactical can use the intelligence you gathered to find it!
They'll have her location pinpointed within the hour!
Ian St. John
Colonel, that's bloody incredible! When do we go take 'er out?
Peter Halcyon
Soon, very soon. For now, though, let's go over your mission report...
Computer credits you with 9 Kilrathi, Maverick..
and Hunter gets 4 to boast about.
That's all. Dismissed.
