Preflight Conversations
Talk to Shotglass
- Shotglass
- Hello there, Maverick. What can I get you?
- Christopher Blair
- The usual Sam, thanks. Anything new going on?
- Shotglass
- Not really. That offensive is looking pretty definite, but we still don't know where or when.
- I know the cats were building a research base there a couple years ago, but who's to say for sure?
- If you follow our pattern so far, we've been clearing a sort of path to that system. It fits.
- We'll find out for sure soon, I suppose.
Talk to Maniac
- Todd Marshall
- Hey Maverick! They finally let me out of sick bay!
- I was hoping that we'd fly a mission together… but I have to be back in sickbay in another hour.
- But I'm sure they'll send me back to active duty soon… and we'll fly a mission together then.
- I know how much you always want to be my wingman, Maverick.
- And I know that we're going to do something important.
- I don't know what it is yet, but I'm sure we'll wipe out a lot of the furballs before they kill us.
- Won't that be great? Well I... I guess I'll have just one more drink before I go back to sickbay.
Talk to Angel
- Jeannette Devereaux
- Allo, Maverick. I've been writing a letter to Bossman's wife. I want her to understand what happened.
- Christopher Blair
- Angel… it wasn't your fault. You have to understand that.
- Jeannette Devereaux
- Je comprends, mon ami, but it is (a) very hard truth to face.
- I have always thought of myself as different from you and the others…
- that if I did not care about anything but myself and perfecting my skills, I could never be hurt, never feel pain or fear.
- But I was so very wrong, non? If you would, Maverick, just sit with me for a while.
- I think I need your company right now.
Mission Briefing
Mission Briefing. Anchorage System
- Peter Halcyon
- All right pilots, listen up, we've got a lot to cover.
- The Confederation, as you may have heard, is gearing up for a major offensive.
- When and where I am not yet authorized to reveal, so bear with me.
- We have been assigned escort duty, to get troopships to the vicinity of the offensive.
- I know I don't have to tell you how important this is, without those troops the offensive would be lost.
- Maverick, you and Doomsday are Alpha wing.
- Pick up your Drayman right outside the Claw, then head to Nav 2, via Nav 1.
- The Drayman will jump at Nav 2.
- We have reports of enemy activity directly between here and Nav 2.
- Come back that way and check it out. Any questions?
- Christopher Blair
- No Sir.
- Peter Halcyon
- Very well…
You listen as the commander makes the rest of the assignments
- Peter Halcyon
- All right pilots, that's it. Go to it and good luck.
Mission Debriefing
Mission Debriefing. Anchorage System
- Peter Halcyon
- Lt., lets have your report.
- Christopher Blair
- Yes sir. There were several wings of Kilrathi ad Nav1. Mostly Jalthi. They weren't much trouble.
- Nav 2 had four Krants, but they were also easy to take care of.
- The Drayman jumped out safely, right on time. And there were only 2 Salthi between Nav 2 and the Claw, sir.
- Peter Halcyon
- Excellent, I did not want to tell you earlier, but that particular Drayman was carrying the Vice-Admiral of the fleet.
- Lets go over the flight recorder data. From the flight recorder I see you took out 9 Kilrathi ships.
- Doomsday didn't ice any of the enemy ships. Dismissed.
