Readme Background[edit]

Some of my favorite stories in the XWA database were written and made by RogueWing. He graciously has given me permission to remaster his battles into TFTC and I have chosen to remaster XWA-F 29: Operation TakeDown.

Story


A Rebel Admiral has been identified as the one responsible for the successful attacks on several holdings of the EH. Phantom Squadron has been assigned to assassinate him. You will fly a specially modified T/A that has a special dampening field. This should allow you to sneak up on his shuttle.


Script[edit]

Commander's Briefing[edit]

A Rebel Admiral has been identified as the one responsible for several successful raids against the Emperor's Hammer's territory. It has been decided that he needs to be [eliminated]. That mission falls to one of our assassination squadrons, Phantom.


Tactical Briefing Text[edit]

We have sent a small taskforce to a nearby system to draw away as many enemies as possible.

You will then depart the Immortal and head to a waiting point. If we feel that enough enemies have been distracted, you will receive a go ahead.

Head to the system where our Intelligence has determined that the enemy admiral will be transferring from one ship to another. [Kill him!]

When that is completed, head for the escape coordinates we'll provide and return to the Immortal.

We have fitted your TIE Advanced with a dampening system that should enable you to sneak up on enemy fighters. If you open fire, they will detect you early in your mission. Have patience.

Good luck.


Radio Messages[edit]

Victory Briefing[edit]

That kind of skill shows why you have been assigned to an assassination squadron. Well done. You completed your mission and made sure that there were no witnesses.
