Alternate Missions - A bit of imagination and roleplay required.
Following on from a thread in 'General Discussion".
VIP Extraction Alt 1
"Okay, settle down," Mads stepped into the open briefing area. It was filled with homesteaders, the odd outcast assigned to support Erehwon, and Ghosts. The Ghosts did nothing, they'd already been sat quietly, but the others had been shooting the **** and sharing ribled jibes.
"Team Alpha," he looked over towards the members of Alpha. "Sentinel have taken another prisoner. Time is of the essence on this mission. You're to fly in, eliminate all guards, and then exfil with the prisoner to the marked location. I cannot stress enough, speed is of the essence."
VIP Extraction Alt 2
"Listen up people," Rowan Brown stood before a white board, numerous markers in his hand. As he spoke, he started drawing. "Sentinel have engaged one of our patrols. There was a survivor who managed to get a call for help out, but he's been snatched. Enemy land-to-air defences mean that you cannot infil by air. You'll have to land one kay out and tab to the location they're holding him in. Exfil will be either by foot, or by any vehicle that you're able to capture. You will not be able to make it back to the helo if you use it as enemy forces in that direction will be too heavy."
There was a pause as he finished marked the board.
"Team Bravo, this one's yours."
VIP Extraction Alt 3
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a hunter kill mission. One of ours has turned. They've met with a Sentinel patrol who have reported they've picked them up. This piece of **** is going to sell out the location of Erehwon. We need you to get in there and kill them. It will look like an extraction right up until you kill the target. All enemy troops and comms equipment must be destroyed to ensure that no information has been passed on."
There was a stir as those assembled in the briefing room absorbed the information. Traitors were thankfully rare. Normally they were to be extracted. However, even though they hadn't been told the name of the traitor, they all knew who it was.
"Team Charlie, this is yours."
VIP Extraction Alt 4
Mads walked into the briefing room, looking at the few people gathered. Other homesteaders stood just out of earshot, making sure that no-one else got close enough to hear.
"****ty ****ing thing just happened. One of ours has tried to defect. They've made it to the Sentinel patrol tasked to pick them up, and are awaiting extraction. Your task, is to wipe out the guards, and bring the traitor back. Do this however you need to. By foot, car, or helo."
Infrastructure strike
Anti-turret
"We've got another mission. Team Delta, we need you to enter this location," Morrison pointed to the map he'd drawn on the whiteboard. It's defended by turrets and your mission is to disable the heavy machine guns. Once that is done, Team Charlie will carry out a separate mission."
Blackout
"Morning all, not that you can tell in this damned cave," Chuck growsed as he entered the briefing room, steaming mug of coffee held in his hand. "God, what I wouldn't give for a ****ing doughnut."
"Got a mission for us?" quipped one of the homesteaders waiting for the briefing.
"I got this," Chuck made a rude gesture, eliciting chuckles from those assembled. "But on a serious note yeah. Team Whisky, you need to enter this location and bring down their generator. In and out. No-one can spot you until you've done the generator, but you're not allowed to engage. No bodies. None. In and out, like ghosts."
"Don't you mean Ghosts?" grinned Nomad as he took a big bite out of a doughnut, saluting Chuck with it as he chewed.
