Jaeger — briefing

Good to see you, kid. You've probably heard of Ref, maybe even worked for him... Well, he's decided to stick his Arena into the nature reserve. At first he wanted to negotiate, even tried to buy me off. I made my position perfectly clear through his messengers. But there was a fight near the EMERCOM camp yesterday, and I don't think that's a coincidence. If Ref doesn't understand words, then you and I may have to settle this another way. First, though, we need information. Find out who's occupying that camp now and try to learn what they're planning. It wouldn't hurt to take a look around other parts of the city as well. The more we see, the clearer the picture becomes.

Objectives

• Locate any information on Ref's plan in the EMERCOM camp on Woods
• (Optional) Locate the position of Ref's mercenaries on Customs
• (Optional) Locate the position of Ref's mercenaries on Shoreline
• Hand over the found intel

Tactical notes

• 3 maps — Customs, Woods and Shoreline: not a one-raid task.

On completion

Jaeger: A note, you say? Let me have a look... So, he wants to convert three entire camps into arenas for his competitions. He's not lacking ambition, I'll give him that. Looks like that new season earned him a lot of money if he's planning something on this scale. And judging by these locations, he's managed not only to lease the smugglers' camp, but also strike a deal with Skier over the dormitories. Funny thing is, not that long ago they were openly at each other's throats...
