Part 141: Kilrah System, Kilrah Sector, Mission 2 (Story)

Kilrah System, Kilrah Sector
Covert Ops Theta Class-II Depot

Lancelot Flight refuels and rearms their Excaliburs for the next leg of the journey, deeper into the Kilrah system. There's no conversation scenes left in the game, though there's one scene before you take off for the final time that got cut (probably because it feels a bit stupid when you consider Blair's saying it to one person - really stupid in our case, since he'll be saying it to his girlfriend).

Vagabond's funeral isn't triggered by losing him on the final mission series - presumably because the funerals are all set on the Victory's hangar deck, and re-doing them all with a different background must have been too much space on the CDs. Here it is anyway:

: Lieutenant Winston Chang was always ready with a smile and a joke, but flew with a deadly intent in the cockpit. The galaxy's a poorer place without Vagabond.

And since I don't think I've presented Vaquero's funeral either, here it is. Next "story" update I'll cover the remainder of the deleted scenes.

: At no time does this war seem more cruel than when it ends the life of someone as young as Lieutenant Mitchell Lopez, a man young enough to still have dreams. Vaquero was a pilot who at all times flew with heart and pride.

Mission Briefing
Cockpit of Blair's Excalibur



: If you’re watching this, laddie, we’re in good shape. Let’s not waste any time. My boys have set up an undercover depot closer to the Kilrah homeworld. Keep your fingers crossed the Kilrathi haven’t found it because there, you’ll arm and load the T-Bomb for the final run. I’ll be talking to you again, I have no doubt.

Choose your own Blair!
Yeah, we're done with being interactive. It's straight to Kilrah from here. Again, the with-wingmen video will appear before the without-wingmen one.
