Prapor — briefing

Hey, soldier! I've got a new reconnaissance mission for ya. I was able to arrange a deal with the fellas who control the railroad at the old customs gas station, but I haven't sent any of my couriers that way yet. We gotta check it out first. The plan is simple: you fire the green flare and extract. It's like a job Belka did... or was it Strelka? Ah, whatever, you know what I'm trying to say. I'll pay you for risking your skin, but make sure you don't get whacked before even getting to that place, and take your time on the exit itself. I've heard enough tales of mercs who shoot the flare and run to the exit immediately before the flare even lights up properly... On a completely unrelated note, may I interest you in a cheap new helmet with bullet hole vents?

Objectives

• Survive and extract from Customs through Railroad Passage

Tactical notes

• WHAT MATTERS HERE IS THE ORDER, NOT THE SEARCHING — this is where people get stuck.
• Approach the railway car EARLY AND FROM A DISTANCE so the 'signal point' prompt appears in the bottom right. Running straight up to it means never seeing the prompt at all.
• Once it shows: fire the green flare upwards and run STRICTLY along the railway line, without stepping off it.
• You need the signal pistol and a green flare round — bring them, they are not found on site.

On completion

Prapor: There, I told you it was a simple job! You can trust me, I'd never send an untrained soldier into harm's way.
