{{Quote|People of Adumar, I am Wedge Antilles and it is my pleasure to meet you at last. And as a representative of the New Republic, I'm pleased to be present at this historic meeting of our great peoples. I must admit, I find this display very heartwarming. It's possibly the best greeting I've ever received. I'll have to find out if I can replicate it on the walls of my quarters back home. I expect to have more to say when I'm settled in, but for now, thank you for the warm welcome.|[[Wedge Antilles/Legends|Wedge Antilles]]|<ref name="X-Wing: Starfighters of Adumar">''[[X-Wing: Starfighters of Adumar]]''</ref>}}
The '''Antilles Four-Step Instant Speech''' was devised by [[Wedge Antilles/Legends|Wedge Antilles]] after his promotion to the rank of [[General/Legends|general]], and the host of diplomatic functions the grade came with. Forced to take the podium and address people much more often than he'd like, he designed a rough schematic to improvise a speech in a matter of seconds. Wedge made use of it many times, including his arrival on [[Adumar/Legends|Adumar]], where he confided his 'trick' to his close friends [[Tycho Celchu]], [[Wes Janson/Legends|Wes Janson]] and [[Derek Klivian/Legends|Derek Klivian]].

==Description==
As the name implies, the "Antilles Four-Step Instant Speech" is a simple collection of four reminders, useful to improvise a successful speech.

&ndash; Part One: remind the audience who the speaker is in case they had forgotten.

&ndash; Part Two: remind the reason behind the speaker's appearance.

&ndash; Part Three: say something personal, to affirm that the speaker had been paying attention to his audience and make a good impression.

&ndash; Part Four: finish the speech while the good impression from point Three lasts and before the speaker makes a fool of himself.
