DATELINE: Tampa, FL, USA - November 23, 2194
US Marine forces were deployed to an unnamed island SE of Costa
Rica early today in an effort to "crackdown" on suspicious
activities there. The island is currently under ownership of the
Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC). In a press release just moments
ago, General Manklow is quoted as saying, "...The UAC was recently
found guilty of negligence in the assault on Earth by other-dimension
forces and it now appears as if the UAC knew of the danger involved
in such experimentation. We have discovered a paddock on a remote
island that was apparently established to provide a stable, secure
environment for creatures that were "retrieved" from the dimension
portals. In this environment, UAC scientists had hoped to observe
the behavior of these beings and perhaps even communicate with them.
But something has happened there, something for which the UAC staff
didn't have the foresight to plan, and, as a result, my men are
having to put their lives in jeapordy today." More to follow as this
story unfolds.
MISSION:
General Manklow has handpicked you as one of his "Elite Team Alpha."
The few of you chosen are each handed the following brief:
-The UAC base on Island "Omega" was constructed as a research
facility but designed with a natural facade so as to be aesthetically
pleasing to its inhabitants. Several standard "containment fields"
(i.e. invisible force fences using deployed force poles placed at
regular intervals) were installed to prevent roaming and/or
stampeding and possible injury to the new inhabitants as a result.
What was not standard for these fields was a new force science merging
energy fields and teleportation theory. These "telefences" eliminated
the minor physiological and psychological injury that can result from
energy field impact - they merely teleported the "field offender" to
a safe location, never actually allowing them to come in contact with
the force field.
-This much we do know from the last communication out of the base.
There has been a massive power surge at Omega. As a result, the
telefences are behaving erratically. One section is down completely,
others seem to be intact but during a simultaneous entry allow 1
field offender to pass through, and still others have had their
destination frequencies disturbed. As a result, some creatures have
escaped and are "on the prowl." Fortunately, due to the holiday, UAC
staff was at a minimum although it is believed that of the 5 who were
on duty, 0 survived.
-There are unconfirmed reports that a rogue rebel group of Marines
were at fault for this catastrophe.
-Your mission is to get in and do one of two things:
1. Restore power to the telefences and return stray
creatures to their exhibits.
2. Destroy all creatures for safe entry by civilians.
3. If any humans are posing as Marines, shoot on site.
-Good luck and good shootin'!
You are led to the teleport pad and administered last rites. You wonder if
you should have stayed home and played Tetris today as you step on the pad...
