————————————————————————
Two UH-144 falcons fly over a mountainous landscape as the leader of noble team Carter is looking over at the other falcon.

Carter: "Listen up, Noble Team. We're looking at a downed relay outpost, fifty klicks from Visegrad. We're going to introduce ourselves to whoever took it out, then Kat's going to get it back online."

Catherine: "Just get me under the hood, Commander."

Jorge: "Sir, why would rebels want to cut off Reach from the rest of the colonies?"

Carter: "You get a chance, maybe you can ask them, Jorge."

Catherine: "Commander, we just lost our signal to HQ."

Carter: "Backup channels?"

Catherine: "Searching...nada. Can't say what's jamming us."

The two falcons are now approaching the outpost.

Carter: "You heard her. Dead zone confirmed. Command will not be keeping us company this trip."

Emile: "I'm lonely already."

The falcons bank left and hover over the outpost.

Carter: "Shoot down attempts are likely, so keep your distance."

Pilot: "Yes, sir!"

Carter: "Let's stay focused. Watch your sectors."

The two falcons head in opposite directions as the Comm Relay Hub comes into view.

Jorge: "There's the communications outpost."

Catherine: "Reading a distress beacon."

Your HUB places a waypoint that reads "Distress Beacon - Investigate".

Carter: "Could be the missing troopers. Let's check it out."

New objective: Locate Distress Beacon.

Carter: "Put is down on the bluff."

The flacon circles for a landing.

Carter: "Jun, I want your eyes in the sky."

Jun: "Sir."

The flacons land side by side, and Carter jumps down.

Carter: "Let's go, Six."

You exit the falcon along with Carter, Emile and Kat. Jun and Jorge remain in the Falcon to provide sniper support.

NOBLE Team

Carter: "Alright, Noble Team. Spread out. Watch the approach."

Catherine: "Distress beacon is coming from just south of here, commander, we're close."

You follow Noble Team down the hillside. Halfway down the hill, Jun calls over the radio.

Jun: "Structure point 3-4, looks clear from this angle."

Soon they come to a burning vehicle next to a small building. Emile begins inspecting a palette on the ground.

Emile: "Found the beacon."

Emile tosses Kat the beacon.

Carter: "Make out any ID?"

Catherine: "Negative, but it's military."

Kat drops the beacon on the ground.

Jorge: "So where are all the troopers?"

Catherine: "Why are we not seeing explosives residue?"
