00:00Find your seats, miners, and listen up.
00:02We have lost contact with all deep-level extraction facilities across the entire planet.
00:07Everything has gone dark.
00:10Management wants our mines back online ASAP.
00:13And that's why we've decided to send in the Reclaimers.
00:17Their ship, the RV-09 Ramrod, is in low orbit over the planet as we speak.
00:23For this operation, we will be sending five Reclaimers to the affected facilities.
00:27They will deploy in squads of up to four, although solo missions are also permitted.
00:33Guardian is the team's shield.
00:35He is an expert in area denial and close protection.
00:39He leads the charge, stunning enemies with concussive shocks.
00:43And he can support his squadmates by regenerating their armor.
00:46Falconer specializes in aerial assaults and electrocution.
00:50Her airborne attack drone damages and slows enemies with electrifying bolts.
00:54And she can provide an emergency revive to her teammates.
00:58Spotter is our sharpshooter.
01:00His tracking dart highlights key targets and opens them up to critical damage.
01:05An ultrasonic scan allows Spotter to detect hostiles even through walls.
01:10And he can resupply squadmates during extended firefights.
01:14Now, Retcon makes use of phase shift technology to fight as a sort of hologram decoy.
01:19She is capable of enhanced defensive tactics and repositioning.
01:22And she can even bring herself back from the brink of death.
01:26Slicer is our close combat expert.
01:29His tactics focus on an experimental energy blade to dismember hostiles in melee range.
01:35He can quickly close the distance to his target and deploy a directional shield to block incoming projectiles.
01:42Now to the mission at hand.
01:44All deep-level mining facilities on Hoxys have gone offline.
01:47They've been surrounded by an electromagnetic field, which we call the Greyout Barrier.
01:53It cuts off all communications and limits what technology we can bring through.
01:58Because of this, I will be deploying our reclaimers with only their armor and their pickaxe.
02:03They must salvage the rest of their weapons and equipment from within the facility.
02:07Once this team has breached the barrier, they will sweep and secure the mine one floor at a time.
02:13Elevators are the only connection between levels.
02:15So we need to locate that elevator on each level and activate it in order to progress deeper.
02:20Time is of the essence.
02:22The longer we stay on each level, the more hostile resistance we expect to face.
02:27Inefficiency is a mistake we cannot afford.
02:31As some of you know, these deep-level mining facilities were established for the extraction of Exponite.
02:37Leveraging this potent energy source will be critical to the success of each mission.
02:42The reclaimers will be supported by a mobile Exponite processing unit, the REPD.
02:48It will allow them to turn Exponite into powerful enhancements for their own weaponry and abilities.
02:53The reclaimers must collect and process Exponite at every opportunity.
02:57We expect the mining facilities will still have the heavy extraction equipment used before this all went dark.
03:03And this may be a valuable source of additional Exponite.
03:07The aim of our operation is to eradicate the alien threat known as the Core Spawn.
03:12We believe them to be behind this attack.
03:15These monstrosities have infested every level of our mines.
03:19And they must be eradicated.
03:22Now, the source of each local infestation appears to be a type of portal, which we call the Rift Gate.
03:28It will be located at the deepest level of each mining facility.
03:32It is the essential objective of every mission to locate the Rift Gate and ensure that it is permanently sealed.
03:38But you can bet that every last Core Spawn in these caves is willing to die to protect it.
03:44The reclaimers must move quickly, work together, and act without hesitation.
03:48Once we cross through that greyout barrier, mission success is the only way home.
03:53Of course, the company's finest will enjoy comfortable accommodations aboard the Ramron,
03:58which will serve as a base of operations between missions.
04:02And I expect the reclaimers to refine their skill sets and become even sharper weapons in our fight against the
04:07Core Spawn.
04:08In time, we will be able to open up new areas of operation and grant eligible reclaimers increased access levels
04:15within the mines.
04:17Operation Rogue Corps will continue until even the deepest reaches of this planet are back in company hands.
04:24And I know that you will keep our brave reclaimers in your thoughts as they take the fight to the
04:31very center of this planet.
04:33Operation Rogue Corps will be a success because there is no force on this planet stronger than the will of
04:40the reclaimers.
04:41The Core Spawn started this, but you can be damn sure we're going to finish it.
04:46Now let's get this done for Rock and Stone.
