Mission Briefing

Initial Offer

Talk to Admiral Terrell

TERRELL

Good day, $NM. I trust you remember me?

PLAYER

Naturally.  

TERRELL

I've been impressed by your recent efforts to help the Confederation.

Captain Goodin's reports to me have been most positive.

As I'm sure you have learned, the Retros have gotten out of hand.

Their recent surge in activity is attributable to one Mordecai Jones.

Stopping the threat means eliminating Jones.

Unfortunately, we have very little information about his current location.

Intelligence analysis indicates that he's operating from the Fariss quadrant.

But that's all we know.

Therefore, we're going to begin a thorough search of Fariss.

We're going to comb each system until we find him.

PLAYER

So how do I fit in?  

TERRELL

As you know, we've got nearly all our forces mobilized already.

They're split between the Kilrathi and the Retros.

We can only spare a handful of ships for the search.

but a handful is not enough. Using Confederation ships alone,

the search would take years.

We need volunteers to beef up our search teams.

That's how you fit in.

PLAYER

What are you offering?  

TERRELL

We need you to patrol Death, Pestilence, and War.

You get 20,000.

PLAYER

That's an awful lot of space to cover in one flight.  

TERRELL

I know. You should fuel up at Macabee in Nexus before starting.

Accept	Refuse
TERRELL Good. It's imperative that you return here when you're done. We'll analyze your data and see if there's any place to attack.	TERRELL That's too bad. Our effort depends on you. Please reconsider.

TERRELL

What are you doing here, $NM? Your mission's not complete.

PLAYER

I may be reconsidering. What are the details again?  

TERRELL

You are to patrol Death, Pestilence and War.

I recommend you fuel up at Macabee in Nexus first.

You must return here afterwards. The pay is 20,000.

Accept	Refuse
PLAYER Got it. See you later.	PLAYER No.   TERRELL That's too bad. Our effort depends on you.

Accepted

Talk to Sandra Goodin

GOODIN

$NM, the Commodore's orders have not been carried out.

The Kilrathi threat at Blockade Point Alpha remains.

Let me remind you of your duties.

Fly to Nav 1 at Blockade Point Alpha and meet with Commodore Uhler.

Follow his instructions, then return here for 20,000.

Accept	Refuse
GOODIN Good luck, $NM.	GOODIN Changed your mind, eh? Too bad. We really need your help.

Rejected

Talk to Sandra Goodin

GOODIN

Ah, $NM. Have you reconsidered?

PLAYER

Maybe. Let's hear the story again.  

GOODIN

We're trying to secure Blockade Point Alpha against further Kilrathi aggression.

We want your help at Blockade Point Alpha.

Fly to Nav 1 there and meet with Commodore Uhler.

Follow his instructions, then return here for 20,000.

Accept	Refuse
GOODIN Thank you, $NM. The cooperation of privateers like you is of great help.	GOODIN I wish there was something I could say to change your mind.

In Flight

Talk to Uhler

PLAYER

# Did someone mention Cats for dinner.

# O.K., let's start the party.

UHLER

Good, our support has arrived. Listen up, there are Kilrathi en route. We'll proceed to Nav 5 and seal off the jump tunnel. We need your help to cover our flank. Clear the other three Nav points of all Kilrathi. And rendezvous with us at Nav 5. Patrol, move out.

PLAYER

# Tell me where to shoot.

# I better get overtime pay.

Talk to Kahl

PLAYER

# Back off, or you're a throw-rug!

# Hey, is catnip illegal on Kilrah?

# I'm not looking for trouble...

KAHL

This is Kahl, Commander of the Sixth Fleet. No doubt you've come in contact, With the Kilrathi's latest weapon? Your Retros make it so easy for us. We provide a few ships, And watch death spread like an epidemic! Amusing, no? Apes killing hairy apes.

PLAYER

# I don't have any problems with you.

# Buzz off, fuzz ball.

Talk to Uhler

PLAYER

# How's that for a cat fight.

# Now, what?

UHLER

Good work! We would've been catmeat without your help. If you've already cleared the other Nav points, Then you're free to return to the Base. Uhler out.

Completed

Talk to Sandra Goodin

GOODIN

Good work, $NM. I'm frankly surprised you obeyed orders so well.

PLAYER

Cash helps put me in my place.  

GOODIN

Admiral Terrell is impressed as well.

In fact, he wants to see you right away.

He's waiting for you in his office across the main concourse.

PLAYER

I wonder what he wants this time.  

GOODIN

I have no idea, so it must be pretty confidential.

Good luck.

WC:CIC Game Guide

Description

Confed are employing Privateers to search Fariss quadrant for Mordichai Jones. You are assigned a long patrol so you will need to stop at Macabee mining base in Nexus system before starting.

Objectives

Patrol the Death, Pestilence and War systems and destroy all Retros. Return to Admiral Terrell when this is complete.

Scripted Encounters

Retros all over patrol area.

Notes

• You can face any number of fighters in this one. They come in waves of 3, but as you face random waves as well, the total number of fighters can vary, but it will be a lot. In all likelihood, you'll face more than 15 enemies. You can't afford to take damage, and you need to make your missiles last.
• By the end of the mission, your nearest base is in Troy system so jump there and find a place to land. Upon reaching a planet or base, a pirate will tell you that his "employer" wants to meet you at Drake base in Capello system. Land now to refuel. You'll need to land in Capello system to refuel again on the way back so you can visit the "employer" then.
