Briefing
Headquarters:
 * Attention all soldiers! We have a priority flashpoint mission directly from HQ! Our sensors have picked up the signature of an Alpha Class Recon Predator. The Bane use these specialized Predators along with an aray of drones to do intensive data scans of entire regions. As far as we know the data includes intensive ground penetrating topography data as well as detailed troop deployment. HQ's top analysts believe that if the Bane can successfully collect the data, all of our current positions on Incline will be compromised.


 * HQ wants you to drop whatever you are doing and intercept the Recon Predator and its drones before the data can be collected. Sensors indicate that the signature has originated from somewhere in the Pinnacle Badlands in eastern Incline. Based on previous intel, the recon group is likely heading directly west through Raintree Thicket and will circle around back to the Pinnacle. You must destroy them before they have completed their route.


 * As a secondary objective, HQ would like you to collect the Data Matrix from the Alpha Class Recon Predator. Perhaps there might be some salvageable information for the AFS to use to our advantage. When you are done, report to Field Commander Foletto.

Debriefing
(Optional not completed) Field Commander Foletto:
 * Good job eliminating those damn Recon Predators. Too bad you didn't manage to get the data.

(Optional completed) Field Commander Foletto:
 * Excellent job retrieving the Data Matrix! Engineer Hay will be eager to start the decoding process.

Field Commander Foletto:
 * Great job there soldier! You likely saved all of our hides here on Incline. You're like a hero or something. Take this requisition form over to Engineer Hay and pick out something nice.
