Mission REF 10: Buenos Aires

  • BACKGROUND INFORMATION: check REF 10 Santiago

    MISSION TACTICS:
    If you have paid some money for more information about the mission, you are given two other important clues. There's a reserve vault containing 800.000 credits, and an additional cultist area has been detected. Great!

    The four Zealots wandering around the building near the IML point are your first enemy contact. Proceed to the vault because we're going to earn some money first. On your way to the vault you can encounter some more Epoch agents, but they are nothing to be worried about, because they attack separately. The mass attacks are reserved for the later missions.

    Place one high explosive on one of the gates of the vault and run away. If you are lucky enough only two flying police cars will come and attack you. It's possible that a yellow Zealot car will annoy you too if you're not so lucky. You will have to deal with it in this Mission anyhow. Choose a vehicle and shoot it. There's a building to the south of the vault where you can hide. A combination of long range-rifles and miniguns should suffice to destroy the cars.

    Our target is in the area next to the vault. Stay at a safe distance, and shoot the two Zealot guards with the long-range rifles. Other Zealots will begin to move towards the entrance, and you can shoot them one by one as they appear. Only some of them will stay in the area. They are within three buildings, but they can easily be taken care of. The first will come from a building to the north as soon as you enter the area. Use miniguns and long-range rifles to take them out. The other Zealots will not come out as long as you are not near their buildings. Be sure to pick up the epidermis that you can find in this building! The other two buildings have only three or four Zealots. Take them out before you persuade our scientist.

    After the persuasion, this Mission is not over. A new objective arises: kill every remaining Zealot in the city. I kept one agent behind with the scientist and I grouped the other three. The group can walk towards the Zealots at the other side of town. This way, you will keep your scientist out of dangerous situations.

    The area is covered with a fence. Blow it up with a high explosive. The building near the fence can now be accessed. Put another high explosive near a wall. Some Zealots will have noticed your attack. If you want to avoid this, you can always use the clone shield from a previous mission. The alarmed Zealots will move to the building to be able to attack you but the high explosive you had put there will kill nearly all of them. There's only one guard left a little bit further away.

    Group your 4 agents again and go to the IML point.
