Come by the Fire

Event: Big Chill · 24 December 2025

Skier — briefing

You look half frozen, mate. Want some vodka to warm you up? Like the frost wasn't enough, now we've got this bloody blizzard on top of it. But I told you already, didn't I? If you want business to keep moving, you find opportunities where everyone else backs off. Logistics are dead for everyone right now, I heard even the BTR won't start. And that means the roads are wide open for us, as long as you've got the nerve. So listen up. I need to move a few weapon shipments through disputed ground. The route goes through Priozersk. Without a plan, my lads will end up buried in the snow out there. They'll be moving from the RUAF checkpoint by the lake, heading northeast toward the village, where the SUV driver on the bridge usually picks people up. But they need shelters. Places to hide from the storm. You probably won't run into anyone on the way, but my guys definitely won't be there. So if you do see someone, feel free to drop them. Your job is to find good spots along the route and mark them with IR strobes. If everything goes smoothly, I'll cut you in on the profit from the deal.

On completion

Skier: I got the signals already. Clean work, mate. The deal's not finished yet, but I'll slide you something as an advance. You didn't just help move cargo. At this rate, by the time Prapor crawls out of his bunkers, we'll have half his routes under control.
