Mission 10 - Young Pioneers


Strike Team Assembly:
As soon as you land, get to clearing out the bugs and bugholes around the LZ. Major Donald Munroe drops in ahead of schedule. You can leave him there for now, or take him with you as you sweep as much of the map as you can. If you choose to meet up with him, he'll start giving you tasks. Either way, start sweeping the map.

You'll find a Brain bug in the western part of the map. You can ignore him, or you can take out the nearby bughole, and have your troopers attack him all at once, stopping to take out the Warriors who come out of the bughole behind the Brian. Once the Brain is dead, destroy the bughole, and continue on your way.

Scattered around the map are green icons of cameras. Try to walk over those as you explore, as it's part of your objectives to take Major Munroe to them. He'll thank you at each one.

Once power is back up, you need to head to the comm center for Major Munroe. Do so, and take out a new bughole or two along the way. Once the transmission is completed, a few more bugholes will appear, one near the Comm station. Also, settlers will begin to arrive. There are six farms around the map, and you must visit each one to activate a beacon. This lets settlers know it's safe to come down. After the last family is down, you'll be informed that the bugs are attacking again, and to get out of there.

As you head to your RZ, you'll hear the settlers asking for help. It's optional to go back to all the farms and re-activate the beacons for them. No big deal if you leave them to your fate, but you can kill some more bugs if you stay and sweep the map again.
