Conversation with Admiral Kilnstrider

Admiral Kilnstrider: Very good! Now you will serve me! I have a mission for you.
PC: Very good.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Something is knocking our system satellites offline.
PC: Any idea what it could be?
Admiral Kilnstrider: That is not my concern. It is yours. You will fix the problem. I want you to inspect each satellite personally.
PC: There must be...How many satellites are there in this system?
Admiral Kilnstrider: Enough to keep you busy, I think. You are to leave immediately.

Conversation with Admiral Kilnstrider

Admiral Kilnstrider: You have earned some of my trust, %NU. Not all, but some.
PC: I'm flattered.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Don't be. I'm only giving you the information you need to serve the Empire.
PC: I don't know what to say.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Then shut your mouth and listen! We have learned that Bothan spies are operating in this system.
PC: Bothan? They usually work with the Rebels.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Of that you can be sure.
PC: How do you know they're here? Bothan spies are usually invisible.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Not this time. They have captured several of our command shuttles.
PC: What are they doing with them?
Admiral Kilnstrider: They are attempting to leave this system. But they will not - because you will stop them.
PC: Can I fire on the ships?
Admiral Kilnstrider: Use extreme prejudice. We'd rather see those ships destroyed than fall into Rebel hands.

Endor System: Capture Bothan Controlled Engineer Transport

Members of the Bothan Spynet have captured several engineer transports and are attempting to fly them out of the system. These transport contain some very important information that cannot be allowed to fall into Rebel hands. Capture and return your targeted transport before it can escape the system.

Admiral Kilnstrider: It looks like you are scheduled to learn about TIE guard training.
PC: I am ready.
Admiral Kilnstrider: The Emperor continues to take an interest in this system. He is sending an Inquisitor here.
PC: An Inquisitor?
Admiral Kilnstrider: The Emperor's most potent weapon - besides myself, that is. Your fears are well founded.
PC: I have nothing to fear from them, right?
Admiral Kilnstrider: Why? Have you been naughty?
PC: No!
Admiral Kilnstrider: Well then. There's your answer.
PC: I wish only to serve.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Then continue your search for those shuttles.
PC: I thought I had all of them!
Admiral Kilnstrider: No. You did not. Several shuttles managed to escape our sensors.
PC: The Bothan spies are good pilots after all.
Admiral Kilnstrider: The Inquisition means to get to the bottom of this. You are to escort their ship to this location. Dismissed.

Conversation with Admiral Kilnstrider

Admiral Kilnstrider: It is essential that all pilots continue their training.
PC: In what am I to be trained?
Admiral Kilnstrider: It looks like you are scheduled to learn about droid intelligence theory.
PC: I am ready.
Admiral Kilnstrider: We continue to pursue these stolen shuttles.
PC: Incredible! How can this be? We've been pursuing them at full speed!
Admiral Kilnstrider: I am amazed myself. As is the Inquisitor. He is eager to speak to one of these Bothan spies. They've done an amazing job.
PC: I'd like to do more than talk.
Admiral Kilnstrider: You must control your temper. If you find these Bothans, you must deliver them to the Inquisitor unharmed. They will know what to do, believe me.
PC: Do you have any more information on the shuttles?
Admiral Kilnstrider: The Bothans took the ships to the Dantooine system. They will be transferred to the Rebellion shortly. But that must not happen.
PC: Understood.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Destroy those shuttles!

Dantooine System: Destroy the Captured Engineer Transport

Description:

Destroy the captured Engineer transport in the Dantooine system. The shuttle you have recovered has revealed that the Bothans took all of the transports to the Dantooine system. They are apparently waiting for Rebel agents to arrive and pick up the transports. This cannot be allowed to happen.

Hyperspace to Dantooine's Wrath.

Head to the given waypoint in the Dantooine system and destroy all ships:

• 6 Tier 4 Ixiyen "Bothan Escort Fighter".
• 1 Tier 4 (unarmed) Transport.

You have to complete the same mission against:

• 6 Tier 4 Ixiyen "Bothan Escort Fighter".
• 1 Tier 4 (unarmed) Transport.

Then you receive your next mission :

Dantooine System: Capture the Stolen Engineer Transport

Description:

The Inquisitor wants the Bothan spies sent back to him so he can question them about their operation. We have located the third and final missing transport inside the Dantooine system. You are to capture it and send it back to Endor.

Escorting the Transport

Disable the Transport and destroy its escort:

• 7 Tier 4 Ixiyen "Bothan Escort Fighter".
• 1 Tier 4 (unarmed) Transport.

Then you will have to escort it to its Hyperjump point. You will meet:

• 1 Tier 4 X-wing.

Then comes the Final Battle...

Dantooine System: Destroy the Rebel Command Vessel

Description:

Destroy the Rebel command vessel in the Dantooine system. It was on its way to pick up the captured shuttles that appeared in the system. Show the Rebels that their actions will not go unpunished.

For that Battle you will be alone against:

• 1 Tier 4 Assault Gunboat "Nova Holiday".
• 2 Tier 3 YKL-37r Nova Courier.
• 3 Tier 4 X-wing.
• 3 Tier 4 Y-wing.
• 3 Tier 3 B-wing.

• You can solo it or you can call some friends.
• Do not wait too long to destroy the "Nova Holiday" as it will hyperspace out of the system after about 5 minutes.

Solo Mode:

• When approaching the group, target the "Nova Holiday" and use Bomber Strike 2 when in range. DO NOT fire at the gunboat yet. This will keep the gunboat busy and hopefully off of you.
• Then immediately go after the 2 YKL-37r Nova Couriers. They have weak protection and will go down quick.
• Then pull the fighters at least 800m away from the gunboat and destroy them there. Hopefully the gunboat is still busy with your Bomber Strike and has left you alone.
• Now go for the gunboat. This will end up being a jousting match at first but you need to disable it (Engine or Reactor). This stops it from moving around. Then approach from bottom and destroy the rest of the ship.

Conversation with Admiral Kilnstrider

Admiral Kilnstrider: And so, of course, I will pay you now.
PC: Of course! I did my duty.
Admiral Kilnstrider: You did. And the Emperor thanks you.

Reward :

• Credits: 10000 credits.
• 150 Imperial Faction Points.
• a Level 8 Republic Sienar Systems Advanced Military-Grade Reactor.

Admiral Kilnstrider will then tell you that Grand Admiral Niall Declann want to talk to you in Theed Palace.

Conversation with Admiral Kilnstrider

Admiral Kilnstrider: I just received the orders, you are shipping out. Grand Admiral Nial Declann has ordered that you attend him immediately. The orders come from the Palace at Theed so that is where I expect he wants you to go.
PC: What would a Grand Admiral want with me?
Admiral Kilnstrider: The orders don't say and I don't make a point of sticking my nose in their business. The order simply say that you are being transferred under his command and that you are to report to him immediately. I suggest that you be on your best behavior for this one.
PC: Why, what sort of man is he?
Admiral Kilnstrider: How would I know? I have never had the honor of meeting a Grand Admiral. But your behavior reflects on me. If you screw up he will probably just have you executed. I on the other hand will probably be put on garbage detail for the rest of my life. So show this Grand Admiral what being a member of Storm Squadron is all about.
PC: Yes, sir. I won't let the squadron down.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Good. Now don't keep the Admiral waiting. Get to Theed Palace on the double and report in.

Duty missions

Conversation with Admiral Kilnstrider

Admiral Kilnstrider: Oh yes. I was told to expect you. I imagine you fancy yourself quite the pilot. Well I'll make my own judgments once you prove yourself. Now, how about you get to work?
PC: Of course.
Admiral Kilnstrider: Very well. The sitrep is as follows. A pirate clan has foolishly chosen to set up operations in this system. They must be dealt with.
PC: I see.
Admiral Kilnstrider: More supply freighters are arriving every day. They must be transported to headquarters.
PC: Mm.
Admiral Kilnstrider: We are also receiving reports that several freighters were attacked by pirate vessels. We need an experienced pilot to retrieve those freighters.
PC: Yes...
Admiral Kilnstrider: Freighters are also a popular target for Rebel forces. Several have taken damage, and they must be rescued. And that is the situation. Tell me, which one interests you?
PC: I'd like to take out that pirate clan. / I'll be happy to transport those freighters. / Somebody's got to recover those freighters. / I can help those damaged freighters.
