Mission Briefing

Initial Offer

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH

Did you deliver my message to Captain Seelig?

PLAYER

Yes. He attacked me.  

LYNCH

Alas, who would've thought Captain Seelig would react in such paranoid fashion?

PLAYER

I have a feeling that's just what you wanted. I don't like being manipulated, Lynch!  

LYNCH

Perhaps this payment, along with some information, will smooth your furrowed brow.

Thus far, our search of records and databases has turned up nothing.

On numerous worlds my people have been harassed, arrested, interrogated...

...all for asking questions about your artifact.

Granting you this favor is costing me rather dearly.

You will therefore need to make another effort to keep our relationship a happy one.

PLAYER

Another chump job, Lynch?

MIGGS

Ever seen your lungs? Keep crackin' wise, I'll show them to ya...up-close, like.

PLAYER

Jeez, where do you get your dialogue, Thugs-R-Us?  

LYNCH

Enough, Miggs. $NM, I need you to make a very important delivery.

It will further finance the study of your artifact. I'll also pay you 15,000 credits. Interested?

Accept

Refuse

LYNCH Good. I need you to rush a weapons shipment to planet Siva in Rikel system. It's already late. Merely dock, and my people will unload your ship. Leave immediately thereafter, and return here for your payment. PLAYER Do you have the weapons here?   LYNCH Of course not. I don't soil my hands with such...incriminating details. You will find them already loaded on your ship. Also, I must caution you regarding one...potential danger. One of my less scrupulous competitors, Salman Kroiz, may be out to stop the shipment. But I have every confidence that you will handle him...appropriately.

PLAYER You've told me nothing so far, Lynch. I'll take my search elsewhere.   LYNCH You'll find it severely impeded. I have a monopoly on this sort of information. Especially since we both know you can't go to the authorities with this. Mark my words...you'll be back.

Accepted

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH

I understand from my contacts on Siva that you've not delivered those weapons yet.

I did inform you that it was late already. What's the delay?

PLAYER

I do have other business to attend to, Lynch.

MIGGS

Other business? You want I should help him priority-wise, Mr. Lynch?

LYNCH

Not now, Miggs. $CS, when you fly for me, MINE is the only business that matters.

However, I'll overlook this if you move immediately.

Deliver the weapons to the agricultural planet Siva in Rikel.

Afterwards, return here for your payment of 15,000 credits.

PLAYER

Fine...but I'll want info on the artifact when I get back, Lynch.  

LYNCH

Rest assured, you will have it.

Rejected

LYNCH

I do hope you've returned to accept the mission.

Really, you should, you know.

All you need do is transport my load of weapons to the Siva agricultural planet in Rikel.

Afterwards, return here and I'll pay you 15,000 credits. Interested?

Accept	Refuse
LYNCH I will load the weapons into your ship immedately. This is an urgent mission, please expedite.	PLAYER You still haven't told me anything, Lynch. I'll get my information elsewhere.   LYNCH You may again mark my words... If you want information on the artifact...you'll be back.

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

Arrive at Rikel System

KROIZ

I say, would you kindly identify yourself?

# I've never been that kind to strangers.

KROIZ

I am Salman Kroiz, Privateer Extraordinaire. Terribly sorry to interrupt your flight, but... It seems as if we're a bit at odds, here.

# You represent one of Lynch's rivals?

# You mean to stop me, is that it?

KROIZ

I'm to prevent you from delivering those weapons. Since we both cannot fulfill our contracts... ...it seems we'll need to settle this ourselves. Would you consider dumping your cargo?

# Nope.

KROIZ

Alas, we'll have to settle this by violent means. So sorry, but I'm afraid I cannot let you pass. Now my operatives and I will end your career... ...and bolster our resumes in the process. Cheers!

Failure

Talk to Lynch

LYNCH

I understand you thwarted Mr. Kroiz, $NM. Well done.

Here's your payment and, as agreed, some additional information.

Your find is of alien origin and, as such, virtually priceless.

Which also means the Confederation will want to keep it from private hands.

To keep your possession of it secret, I've incurred additional expenses...

PLAYER

You want another favor, right?

MIGGS

Mr. Lynch did you a favor, pal.

Better get grateful quick-like...while you can still walk.

PLAYER

I could always get crutches, Miggs...but there's no cure for ugliness.  

LYNCH

I urge you to observe caution with Miggs. My control over him extends only so far.

Actually, my request is personal.

I'll pay you 30,000 credits to take someone off-world.

Do this, and I'll continue to procure the information you seek.

Accept

Refuse

PLAYER Doesn't sound like much to ask. What's the catch?   LYNCH My cousin Regis and I share certain business interests. Sadly, he's been subpoenaed in a murder trial. It would be best if he disappeared. PLAYER Uh-huh. Is he a witness...or a suspect?   LYNCH He is my cousin, which is enough for you. Regis enjoys spending time on the Romulus mining base in Castor system. I suggest you get him out of New Constantinople and take him there. After you've dropped Regis off, return here for your pay...and more information.

PLAYER Sorry, Lynch, but we had a deal. I've lived up to it. You haven't.   LYNCH I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said your artifact is worth millions of credits... ...credits you'll never see without my help.

Privateer Playtester's Guide

ROMAN LYNCH - MISSION B

Summary	Lynch's investigation into the artifact is going badly. Investigating this artifact is leading to harassment of his researchers, and he needs m work from you to continue looking into it. The next job is to me guornse from the capital to Siva (an agricultural base in Rikel system). Lynch is not the only mobster running guns and he suspects, correctly, that you will meet resistance from a rival gangland boss, Salman Kroiz.
Payment	15,000 credits.
Requirements	Deliver the cargo and return to New Constantinople.
Opponents	In Rikel, there will be 2 hostile Demons (confident pros) escorting Kroiz (a confident ace), also in a Demon. They will be at Nay 1, Nay 2 or Nay 5. If you do not kill Kroiz, he will meet you at Hidden 1, 2 or 3 (the first one you go to) escorted by 5 fresh hostile Demons. As with Seelig, you are not required to kill Kroiz and his goons to complete the mission.

• This mission is obviously a pretty easy one. Just take his cargo to Siva and return. You wish it was that easy. Salman Kroiz will be waiting for you escorted by two more Demons. Demons carry some heavy artillery. Make sure that when fighting them, you never go head on. The Demons carry torpedo launchers and aren't afraid to use them. One shot and your shields are almost gone. leaving you open game for the others. If possible, make sure you stay on their tails and keep afterburnering; don't just attack one and switch to another. Pick them off one at a time. — "Deetchman"

Description

To keep Lynch sweet, you need to fly another mission. This one slightly more risky. Lynch warns you that Kroiz may try to stop you, and sure enough, he tries.

Objectives

Deliver shipment of weapons to Siva Agricultural Base in Rikel System, then return to New Constantinople and meet Lynch in the bar.

Scripted Encounters

Kroiz upon entering Rikel system.

Notes

• Kroiz is backed up by two mercenaries. All three are flying Demons. The asteroids make things even more difficult.

Mission : Roman

Comments : 1) No you don't have to shoot at Seelig, but how hard could it be to knock down one Talon? 2) Kroiz and his two buds are so easy to kill - just fly towards them and they'll smash into an asteroid and get killed without you having to do anything.

Comments : If you don't want to fight Kroiz in mission 2, there are 2 ways into the system, meet him at one, then jump out and head in the other with no trouble. You can make it easily in 6 jumps.

Mission : Lynch's second mission...

Comments : When I failed to deliver the cargo Lynch said he didn't want my services anymore and left, now I don't know what to do next! I've been to Oxford and I can't even get in the Library yet.

Mission : To Priv9174 Lynch 2

Comments : Refly the mission and deliver the cargo. You are saving after each Mission, yes? Just refly it. Either that or find at least 2 of the 3 women who put you to work, after which Masterson will give you Missions.
