- Captain! Fantastic work--the Imperial Ministry of War is a firestorm over the Gauntlet's destruction. The SIS says that heads will roll over this--quite literally.
99. Option - We should take advantage.Player - If the Imperials are busy fighting over blame, this is the perfect time for more strikes.
- Aric Jorgan and Elara Dorne will each be recommended for a Mark of Dedication, for the injuries they sustained and their heroism in ensuring each other's survival. Do you approve?

119. Option - They should get more.Player - Dorne nearly got herself killed treating Jorgan's wounds, and Jorgan risked his life to get her out of there. They deserve higher commendations.
- In recognition of the injuries she suffered in the action against the enemy, I've recommended Elara Dorne for the Mark of Dedication. That is, if you approve.
118. Option - I approve.Player - I can't think of anyone more deserving.
- Droids serving in the Republic military are classified as equipment, not personnel. There is no precedent for granting a droid any sort of commendation.
- The SIS is watching for any sign of Rakton's new campaign. Until we have solid data, Havoc Squad is relieved. Rest, recuperate and be ready for my call. Dismissed, Major.
- This capability, if put to use, would give the Empire an insurmountable advantage. It also makes an attack on the Gauntlet itself extremely difficult.
- Your ship, and those of my battle group, will approach the Gauntlet by making numerous short hyperjumps, always remaining below the minimum lock-on time.
- Short, repeated hyperjumps are very inefficient--once we're in, our warships won't have enough fuel to return. Total victory will be our only option.
62. Option - And the battle plan?Player - What is my squad's objective once we're in the target area?
49. Option - Your plan sounds risky.Player - What happens if the Imperials have increased their defenses, or if the Gauntlet can acquire targets faster than you think?
- When the attack begins, Lieutenant Coria's Safecrackers will immediately disable the planetary shield generator that protects the Gauntlet, allowing Havoc Squad to board it.
- During your demolition operations, two Havoc Squad members of your choice will assault the Gauntlet's bridge and download all data from the weapon's computers.
- Unassigned squad members will provide mobile backup to the rest of the team as needed. As soon as your objectives are complete, evacuate the Gauntlet immediately. Understood?
66. Option - Affirmative.Player - I'll assign the bridge assault team before the attack begins.
- We cannot overemphasize the importance of this mission, Captain. The future security of the Galactic Republic hinges on the destruction of this single weapon.
