Transcript
1ST LIEUTENANT VELINA SOSA: This just came in, sir.
ADMIRAL DANIEL WILFORD: Colonel, we're undertaking fleet actions in two different systems. Now, in Circe, we'll be assisting the legitimate Border Worlds government in a fierce civil war -- instigated by mercenaries. Now, we believe these mercs are backed by elements within Confed, and thousands of civilians are being killed. Now, the other operation is in Speradon, another Border Worlds territory, where a Confed shipyard has geared up in anticipation of war. Now, it appears vulnerable, and you know how badly our forces need equipment. Well, I wish you could be in both places at once. But, since that isn't possible, I'm leaving the choice in your capable hands.
COLONEL TAMARA "PANTHER" FARNSWORTH: You heard what he said: innocent people are being wiped out in Circe. The choice is clear.
COLONEL JACOB "HAWK" MANLEY: �It's not as clear as all that, Colonel. We can't win battles anywhere if we don't have the weapons. That shipyard could be the answer to our prayers.
