Transcript

{Mission Briefing}

• Captain Cutter: "Atriox's forces are too strong and too well entrenched for us to fight head-on. But he's spread his troops far and wide, by abusing the Ark's network of portals. That's his biggest mistake."
• Isabel: "Thanks to the information the Professor got from the Cartographer, we know Atriox's key controller for the portal network is nearby. If we destroy it, it'll cripple his ability to use that portal network."
• Captain Cutter: "Some of the Atriox's troops will be stranded and the rest won't be able to redeploy as easily, It'll give us a fighting chance."
• Isabel: "The bad news is we've detected mass deployment of Banished forces in this area, which means Atriox knows of our plans. The Banished will do everything they can do defend that portal control hub."
• Captain Cutter: "You'll need to neutralize each of the portal's on the approach to the control hub or we'll be overrun. To make things worse, our scouts believe Decimus arrived a few hours ago and he'll be looking for a rematch. Make sure he doesn't walk away from this one."
• Jerome-092: "Looking forward to it, sir."

Mission Summary Cripple the Banished's portal network.

• Hornet: "Spirit of Fire, we have eyes on the first portal and we're returning to base."

A reaver shots down one of the Hornets.

• Hornet: "Looks like we're not going to make it back without a fight!"

Groups of Reavers, infantries and a Wraith are destroying every last one of the Hornets despite they try to escape.

• Jerome-092: "I've got no problem with that. This time we came prepared."
• Isabel: "Jerome, I've marked the first portal on your map."
• Jerome-092: "Thanks, Isabel. We've got our orders, team. Neutralize every portal we see until we reach the Banished's portal controller."

Jerome leads two Squads of Marines, Hellbringers and Three Cyclops to the field.

• Jerome-092: "We've cut off the portal from the Banished, Isabel."
• Isabel: "Good work. Now that is out of their control, we can move through it to reach the next portal. I've marked it on your map."
