| - Crowe: No one must know about the incident with Borgia, got it? Kurt: I was expecting a punishment for failing the mission. Crowe: ..aren't you glad that Isler was the one who appointed you for this mission? Crowe: The Nameless' next mission has been decided. The Empire has set up a supply base in Kloden and it seems you will be there to provide some form of offense. Kurt: The Nameless will lead the attack? Crowe: The militia will perform that role. The regular army will circle towards Yuell city in the meantime, and the Nameless' role will be to infiltrate the city defenses and sabotage them. Kurt: We are to infiltrate their garrisons? Crowe: Get in, dressed as civilians. Simple enough, no? Kurt: Is it not against international law to perform actions of war while dressing up as civilians? Crowe: That's where the Nameless come in. Kurt: ...yes sir. Kurt: Our mission this time is the infiltration of Yuell and the sabotage of its defenses. Riela: We're going to go in dressed as civilians? 21: That's forbidden in international law! Amy: Is that true? 21: A soldier has to wear his uniform with the emblem clearly displayed while carrying their weapons with them, obeying the orders given to them by their commanders. Alfons: To say the least, people not in uniform are not to be considered soldiers. Riela: What happens if we're not recognized as soldiers? Alfons: People who participate in acts of war who are not recognized as soldiers are considered to be committing criminal acts and treated as such. Something like banditry. Gusurg: Excluding the men doing the fighting, on the battlefield civilians alone receive protection. We're about to abuse that rule aren't we? Riela: That's why it is forbidden.. Valerie: That is not all there is to it, disguising as civilians causes confusion as to who are actually combatants and who aren't. Such tactics usually lead to a massacre of civilians, which is why it is strictly forbidden. Riela: And we're going to go through with it..? Alfons: Unfortunate as it is, we're the Nameless, so anything goes. Kurt: Even among forbidden actions, disguising as civilians marks high. Valerie: Yes, it would cause innocents to be involved. 21: And people who commit war crimes won't be taken prisoner. If we're caught there won't be any room for surrender, we'll be shot dead there and then. Riela: Oh no! 45: And of all the rules we could be breaking, we'd have to break the worst one.. Kurt: We're doing it, we have no right to reject the operation. The operation this time involves the liberation of Yuell city by the regular army. You will infiltrate the city and disable city operations to facilitate that purpose. We will take the shortest possible route east towards the city and get close to it. As we've discussed earlier, this is a plan that involves disguising ourselves as city folk, but it will be necessary to gather the information prior to the disguise. If the operation goes smoothly, all that's left is to leave the occupation of the city to the regular army. Then all that's left would be to push the Imperials out of the city. The countryside around Yuell has been the subject of Imperial fortifications, do not forget to do your basic preparations. Dahau: Hmm, the south is it. The generals have worked hard for this. Female Raven: You look like you're having fun, Dahau. Dahau: You've come, First Lieutenant Agthe. Where's Zig? Lydia: How many times have I told you I hate that name.. Call me Lydia, please! Dahau: Sorry about that. I haven't quite gotten used to it. Where's Zig? Zig: I am terribly sorry for being late Sir! Dahau: Punctuality is one of the basic tenets of being a soldier, don't forget that. Zig: Yes sir! Dahau: Lydia, Zig, I need the two of you to bring your forces towards the south. Lydia: The south? Where exactly? Dahau: Lydia, you will be responsible for the occupation of Antholdt city. Lydia: Anthold?! That's a terrible distance from the frontline! Dahau: It's a request from General Gregor himself. You'll do it, won't you? Lydia: I'll do it of course. I doubt there's much Gallian resistance in the southwest. It'd be a waste of my pretty Echidna's capabilities, but whatever. Dahau: Zig, you'll head towards the southern checkpoint, Yuell city. Zig: Yes sir! Dahau: And that was from General Jaeger, as he will be moving the majority of his forces towards securing a new supply base in the south, the defenses at Yuell will be thinned with him gone. As an act of precaution he has asked for a reserve squad to be put there in his absence. Zig: Consider it done! Lydia: So what do you do, Dahau? Dahau: I'll be at Ghirlandaio to meet with His Grace Maximillian. Lydia: Climbing the ranks? How joyous for you. Dahau: Stop with the jokes. I've been recalled for quite the opposite reason. Selvaria: Your Grace, Captain Dahau has arrived and is awaiting. Maximillian: Good. Let him through. Dahau: I am Captain Dahau, commander of the Special Strike Force, I am at your service. Maximillian: Thank you for coming. Dahau: It shames me that as the commander of a single platoon it may be beyond my abilities to achieve Your Grace's ambitions. Maximillian: I have not summoned you to listen to those words. You are here today to renew your oath of fealty to me. I trust you know the reason why? Dahau: ..I am afraid I do not, but I will show proof of my loyalty here should it become necessary. Maximillian: Then I shall see that proof that you would speak of. Dahau: Yes.. Your Grace.. Then allow me to return to the battlefield. Maximillian: What? Dahau: A soldier proves himself through battle. A caged wolf would have no means to show the ferociousness of its jaw. Maximillian: Do not misunderstand your position Dahau. You are no wolf. You are a mere cur. Dahau: Your pleasure. I am but a mere dog of the Empire. Maximillian: Of the Empire, you said. Not of mine? Dahau: It is one and same, the day will come when Your Grace would become synonymous with the Empire. Then, allow me to take my leave. Selvaria: Hold! How dare you treat His Grace with such insolence! Maximillian: Let him. Selvaria. Dahau: ... Selvaria: Your Grace! It is unwise to allow such insolence in the army! Maximillian: It would be easy for me to take his life, but in that creature are talents that are worth keeping him alive over. I would have filled my ranks with another General were he not born Darcsen. Selvaria: Your Grace.. Certain missions are marked as 'Special Effect Missions' and clearing them causes additional effects in the missions that follow. Some of these effects involve support artillery fire, and it may also clear bombardment zones from later missions. It is not necessary that you complete these missions in order to proceed with the storyline, but clearing them would make it easier for your squad to perform their duties.
