If he gives chase, he kills Hobbes, the carrier is attacked, and Lt. Blair has the choice of chasing him or letting him go. Laurel "Cobra" Buckley, steals her fighter and makes for Kilrathi space with news of the planned T-Bomb attack. Before they can complete the bomb, Hobbes kills one of the Victory's pilots, Lt. Paladin suggests a weapon called the Temblor Bomb which, if dropped in the right place, will cause the planet to shake itself to pieces. He reveals that before Angel was captured, she transmitted data indicating that the Kilrathi home world is seismically unstable. If Blair gets drunk, he must then fly an emergency scramble drunk, with the game controls not responding reliably, making combat virtually impossible.Īfter a retreat to the Alcor System, Paladin arrives. When he returns to the Victory, the player chooses between getting drunk or talking to Rachel about his loss. Ted "Radio" Rollins warns him that the Victory is leaving the system. He taunts Blair with a recording showing how he personally disemboweled Angel after her colleagues were disintegrated. Thrakhath then challenges Blair in single combat. A traitor aboard the Victory has transmitted targeting data to the Kilrathi revealing the Behemoth's weakpoints, and the Behemoth is destroyed. Following a successful field test of the Behemoth in the Loki system, the Victory jumps to Kilrah and Tolwyn prepares to use the Behemoth on the Kilrathi home world. Tolwyn is responsible for the escort and defense of the TCS Behemoth, an extremely large vessel (essentially a titanic particle accelerator with engines) capable of destroying a planet. Admiral Tolwyn rendezvouses with the Victory, escorted by several destroyers. Thrakhath appears with a squadron of Pakthan bombers and taunts the Victory over subspace radio, calling Blair "the heart of the tiger" the Confed pilots gather the Kilrathi have bestowed this name on him as a sign of respect.
The player is given the option to follow her, though she returns safely in either case. Even if Blair destroys the missiles, Flint breaks formation and attacks the Kilrathi forces in an act of revenge. Blair and his wing are scrambled to defend Locanda against several of these missiles. Immediately afterward the Victory is rerouted to the Locanda System, where the Kilrathi are deploying a potent pair of new weapons: the "Skipper" cruise missile, equipped with a cloaking device, and a genetically-engineered bioweapon for use against the Locanda colonies, the home of Flint. If Blair wins the duel, he forces Dillon to request reassignment to the Victory's flight wing.

This angers Flash who challenges Blair to a simulator duel. When Flash fails to respond to an attack on the Victory, willfully napping through the crisis, Blair commandeers the Excalibur in defense of the Victory and, in an ensuing argument with Flash, accuses him of being a coward and repeatedly insinuates that he has no flying skills. Shortly after Blair's arrival, test pilot Major Jace "Flash" Dillon arrives on board the Victory with his prototype warcraft, the F-103A Excalibur heavy fighter. The Victory is assigned to the Orsini System, away from the front. Among those on board, Blair meets Lieutenant Robin "Flint" Peters and Chief Fighter Technician Rachel Coriolis. There are a few old faces-Colonel Ralgha nar "Hobbes" Hhallas, and Major Todd "Maniac" Marshall, but all the other pilots and staff are people Blair has never met. Her captain, William Eisen, has been with her for many years, and is proud of his ship. Blair, by orders of Admiral Geoffrey Tolwyn, is transferred as Wing Commander to the TCS Victory, a Ranger-class carrier twice as old as Blair. It is the year 2669, and the Terran-Kilrathi War has been going for over thirty years, with no signs of stopping. On the planet Vespus, Blair and Brigadier General James "Paladin" Taggart inspect the downed wreckage of the TCS Concordia. One, however, is left alive: Blair's lover Colonel Jeannette "Angel" Devereaux, due to her status among the Kilrathi as a respected warrior. Thrakhath nar Kiranka, Crown Prince of the hostile Kilrathi Empire, presides over the execution by disintegration of a group of Terran Confederation prisoners of war.
The protagonist of the previous two games is officially assigned a name, Colonel Christopher Blair. See also: Wing Commander (franchise) § Setting and gameplay
