{Mission Briefing}
The text doesn't show planning in words while in dialogue told about it
- Captain Cutter: "Professor, once you get inside the Cartographer. I need you to find out what Atriox is planning in using it for"
- Anders: "Understood, Captain. Isabel gave me everything the UNSC already knows about the area, and it looks like we'll need to reach the Map Room. Also, I've been running scans as we got closer; there seem to be large power signatures from the central chamber nearby. It's unclear whether it's Banished or Forerunner in origin."
- Isabel: "Be careful, Professor. There will be a strong Banished presence and from what we've seen of the Sentinel defenses you may have them to deal with, too."
- Anders: "I'll let Jerome handle the former, but as for Sentinels... Remember that special project we were talking about earlier? I think it might be time for a test run."
- Isabel: "It's not quite done yet, but I'll give it a shot. I'll wait for your word from down there. Good luck."
Mission Summary
Protect Anders from Forerunner defenses to reach the Cartographer's Map Room.
Scouting Report
Wolverine anti-air vehicles are on standby to counter enemy air units.
{In-game Cutscene}
Anders, Jerome and the Marines arrived through elevator while UNSC Command Center and Supply Pad was already prepared ahead while the Generators and Garage was already on route for construction. She lead Jerome and the others to the base where the Map Room is just ahead of the base.
- Anders: "Up ahead, that's where we need to go. Come on."
A Squad of Marines comes out from Combat Station but ahead the shield prevents them from advancing any further.
- Anders: "Oh, great. That's our way in."
- Jerome-092: "Spirit of Fire Actual, we've got a problem. The route through to the Map Room is blocked by some kind of energy shield."
A Pelican arrives, dropping the Garage for construction on Combat Station.
- Captain Cutter: "Can you open it, Professor?"
- Anders: "Well, we're in the right place...those power signatures i detected in the central chamber must be connected to this energy shield somehow.
Jerome, Anders and the Marines from elevator arrives at the base.
- Jerome-092: "Spirit of Fire, we may be here a while."
UNSC then heard something.
- Jerome-092: "Let's find a way to open the shield. Wait, what's that sound?"
{Gameplay}
Jerome spots Banshees inbound to their location.
- Jerome-092: "Banshees! Spirit of Fire, we're going to need those Wolverines!"
- Captain Cutter: "Already standingby, Jerome."
A Pelican arrives and dropping Two Wolverines, the Banshees soon arrived to attack the base and UNSC repels the first wave. Later, the second wave of Banshees inbound to the base.
- Jerome-092: "More Banshees! Take them down, Wolverines!"
After repelling the second wave, UNSC regroups and start building forces.
After building enough forces, Jerome lead the Marines to the first conduit at the west of the base and soon they met Banished's infantries and Banshees guarding the conduit there.
- Jerome-092: "Professor, there's some kind of Forerunner structure here."
- Anders: "That's the conduit for the energy shields, but the Banished have locked it down. As much as I'd like a more scientific solution, I think you're just going to have to destroy it to force it to shut down."
- Jerome-092: "Only one way to find out. Weapons free, team. Target that conduit."
After clearing the Conduit form the Banished, UNSC start open fire on the Conduit but when the Conduit's health reaches 75% the shield rises and UNSC heard something.
- Jerome-092: "Did you feel that, Professor?"
- Anders: "The Cartographer's sending in Sentinels to protect itself! We can't take on those Sentinels, fall back!"
UNSC quickly pull back as the Sentinels arrives, guarding the Conduit from UNSC.
- Jerome-092: "Looks like they're here to stay this time, Professor. Any ideas?"
- Anders: "What's the status of our special project, Isabel?"
- Isabel: "It's ready, Professor. You guys might want to hold onto something down there!"
A MAC Hits the Sentinels and the defense formation dispersed as the Sentinels stop defending the Conduit.
- Jerome-092: "What was that?"
- Anders: "An EMP targeted to disrupt the Sentinels command networks. Good work, Isabel."
- Jerome-092: "Area is clear, everyone back to work!"
UNSC continue attacking the Conduit and when it reaches less than 25% another Sentinels Swarm inbound in the countdown of ten seconds as the Conduit's shield rises again.
- Anders: "Jerome, the Sentinels are on their way back!"
The Sentinels arrived again to protect the Conduit.
- Jerome-092: "Keep clear of those Sentinels, our weapons aren't making a dent!"
- Anders: "Isabel, we're going to need another EMP to clear them out."
Player can now access EMP MAC on Leader Power.
Soon, another EMP MAC is fired to the Conduit, disabling the defenses and the Sentinels dispersed once more and UNSC finally shut it down.
{In-game Cutscene}
- Jerome-092: "That did it, we've opened the energy shield to the central chamber, Professor, what happens now?"
Anders is running towards the Cartographer without any escort.
- Anders: "Let's find out!"
- Jerome-092: "Professor, wait!"
- Anders: "Nothing ventured, nothing gain, right?"
The shield turns off and Anders continue running to the Map Room until she reaches it.
- Anders: "Phew, smells bad - Brute bad. They must have been using these passages to avoid Sentinels."
She start working and found three more conduits.
- Anders: "Okay, there are three more conduits in this area."
First Conduit was guarded by infantries, Wraiths and Banshees. Second Conduit was guarded more heavily than the first and the last conduit was located behind Banished base.
- Anders: "Each of them are controlling the Forerunner shield blocking our path to the Map Room, so you'll need to shut down every one of them."
- Jerome-092: "I never expected it to be easy, Professor."
- Anders: "Watch out for the Sentinels. They'll swarm in once you start attacking the conduits."
- Jerome-092: "Then we better work fast. Let's find those conduits, people."
{Gameplay}
The status of North, West and East Conduits are shown on the HUD and UNSC start assembling forces again.
