Mechanic — briefing

Someday we will get rid of the invisible hand, which used to brand us with employee badges and now has caused this mess, and I think it leads us to a great war. At least, all current events look like preconditions to it. I worked here for the chemical plant, as an ordinary foreman. It was a good time, everyone thought so, including me. Now it’s full of Scavs and swarming with brigands and outlaws. I want to make use of some of the factory premises, find out what exits can still be used. Go there and check it out.

Objectives

• Locate the first Factory extraction
• Locate the second Factory extraction
• Locate the third Factory extraction
• Locate the fourth Factory extraction
• Survive and extract from the location

Tactical notes

• The exits count on approach and all four fit into one raid — Factory is small.
• You must extract alive, otherwise the marks are not saved.

On completion

Mechanic: Good old Factory has sure changed, but you've brought good news. The sealed doors are still there...
