Verbal confirmation will follow this, as a second warning. If you are within 50 fifty feet, they will extend a hand warning you not to approach any further. No one has clearance to walk up to the freight elevator guards. If you are not perceived as a threat, guards may approach, but will not be immediately hostile. Guards will shoot to kill if they see you with a weapon. You do not need them to go up and down the top 21 floors (lobby to rooftop and in between). You only need the cards to get into the basement. You only know they are contractors and that they can kill you. Remember, you do not know any of these others who are after the VIP target. In addition, anyone can start in one of three locations: the rooftop, the construction site, or as a disguised banker/civilian in the lobby. There are a number of routes to take on your first mission, but you should try to consider all of them. Maybe the guards will cooperate if you put enough fear into them. Someone besides the guards might have information. Unbeknownst to each of them, five additional parties were waiting to seize the same objective, and were prepared to kill for it. Having prepared their entrances-whether disguising themselves within the lobby’s patrons, sneaking into the construction site, or scaling onto the rooftop-the Contractors had been in place and prepared to move in for several hours, waiting for the prime opportunity to strike. They were separate from each other, unaware of one another’s presences. Those who had been signed with Concealed Mass were now being thrown into a live game of cat and mouse, as their new orders were given. This heavily encrypted file was uploaded to their phones, their emails, and even their private networks, aggressively invading their files and forcing itself to display as a file with top priority. The ventilation shaft doesn’t extend to the basement, so you will come out on the ground floor to reach your destination. This also makes your job a lot easier, providing you have the equipment or abilities to sense something like that. Each card emits a tiny electronic signature, so that security can keep track of them. The second is on the twentieth floor, with one of the two guards on that floor. One key card is on the lobby floor, with one of the guards at the elevator door. The two key cards are divided among security personnel. The target is being held in the basement of the Julian West Financial building, but the only way down is through a freight elevator, which requires dual key card access and is guarded by four armed guards at all times. The target’s value is extremely high, so expect other Contractors‘ presence. You should expect lots of resistance, even after finding your target. The enemy is heavily armed, and moderately dangerous. You are to consider all opposition an imminent threat. Eliminate any threats between you and the target, with extreme prejudice. Your mission: extract the VIP target, and deliver them to the drop point on the outskirts of Chicago. The foreman is a pushover, but you’d have to practically kill him to get the keys. The construction site across the street has two bulldozers. Blending in with the bankers on the bottom level wouldn’t be hard, if you didn’t want to go in through the roof.Īnd of course, you could approach this mission without stealth. On the first floor-despite heavy foot traffic-the front door is wide open. They patrol in five minute details, crossing paths at every two and a half minute intervals. There are a minimum of two armed guards on each floor, excluding the lobby, where there are five. There is also one staircase, running down the south side of the building. There are two elevators, one on either the east or west sides of the building. The rooftop has helipad access, in addition to a large open ventilation system that reaches from the roof to the lobby. The building is twenty-one floors tall, and sits directly across from an active construction site. This financing firm is a front for the Crocs many activities, including a moderately sized drug ring and weapons shipping operation. The target is being held in downtown Chicago, somewhere in the Julian West Financial building. A VIP target has been captured by a small time group of mercenaries, known only as “Crocodiles”.
