Caught
Blitzleopard

- Restoration underway.
- Repairing now.
- Repairing! Under fire!
Two remaining
- This isn't working! We're doomed!

When fallen

Legacy

Win/Lose conditions
Medbay condition
- There's a medbay here! Should work on this chassis.
- Medbay!
- Ah, a medbay. Wonderful!
Medbay (use)
- These repair systems are remarkable.
- I'm afraid if I think too hard about how this works, it'll stop working.
- Salveron thinks of everything, don't they?
Wraith trap condition (Hunter)
- I'm through the warp gate!
- That was... somewhat underwhelming.
- Hm. I guess I expected something more dramatic.
Wraith trap condition (Monster)
- It warped! Why won't that gate work for us? Caira might know.
- It's gone.
- That's remarkable! Did you see that?
- It warped away! I blame Abe.
- I really wish I knew how those gates worked.
- Ugh. Teammates.
Nest
Mission start
- Look for eggs! Be sure you don't eat them. I know you people are always eating things.
- If you find one of its eggs, call out! And not, 'Aah!' Try to be specific.
- Happily, the eggs are huge and easy to find. Quite convenient, really.
Attacking egg
- Attacking zygote!
- I found an egg! Although Caira has convinced me that is perhaps not an accurate term.
- One less egg in a moment!
- Firing on an egg!
Egg destroyed

- We did it!

Defeat

Mission start

- Fear not, dying humans! You'll soon be home eating and excreting with your fellow relatives.
- Astonished anyone survived this. Constantly surprised at how resilient humans are. And how pungent.
- It isn't safe here for humans. Once again, I recommend that you should all be robots instead.

Survivor found
- Survivors located!
- Survivor spotted!
- Registering a survivor!
- Downed survivor spotted!
All survivors picked up

Transport ready

- Get to that ship, and you may get off Shear in one piece!
- This way to the landing zone! Where your chariot awaits!
- Evac is here.
Three survivors remaining
- I'm bringing in the Laurie-Anne, in anticipation of rescuing these last survivors.
Survivor killed
- Listen! The creature’s eating a human! We can track the sound of crunching and slurping!
- We can’t let this happen! We came here to protect these people!
- Excellent! We can track the sound of that human innocent as the creature devours it!
Defend
Mission start
- An endless horde of Monsters and only us between the colonists and certain doom!
- Yes, there's a horde of Monsters coming. But we only have to kill the Alpha!
- Prepare for defensive operations.
- What a delightful change of pace. The Monsters coming to us, rather than the other way around.
- Ah, Shear. Hopefully the last we all see of you. I've had a good time. But this wasn't it.
- Remember when we first came here, and everything seemed so peaceful and amazing?
- One last horde of Monsters, then we all leave, or we're all eaten. I know which one I prefer.
- The last battle-the last stand!
- An entire colony packed into one ship! What could possibly go wrong? Apart from them all dying horribly, obviously.
- In the words of our fearless leader: Let's go get 'em.

- That hull is ionic exchange plasteel! How can it tear it apart like that?
- Its after the transport! Stop it, stop it!
Laurie-Anne (Evacuation)
Orbital Drill Win
- We’re getting support from NORDITA’s drill operator. He’ll be firing the drill at the Monster for us. It could obliterate the Monster instantly, but at that setting it would also punch a hole in Shear’s crust and we’d all die horribly. ‘More horribly than normal’ is the implication, I suppose.
Barracks Win
- You’ll be joined by an EbonStar trooper once you hit the ground. Please do try and keep him alive. Nothing bad happens if you don’t, it just seems polite.
Fusion Plant Win
- You'll notice a passel of ranchers down there, eager to help you fight the monster. Cabot tried to talk them out of it, they're almost as stubborn as he is.
Fusion Plant Lose
- You may have noticed. We lost the Fusion Plant, which means you'll be joined by floating clouds of radioactive gas. That's bad, by the way.
