Run title: Taking Action

After the events of Operation Blue Night, which ended in agent Artyom Elkin finding out that the project the RFS has been working on, R-425F-9, is, in fact, some sort of living, adapting mechanism.Apparently, it had moved from the Beta compound, and its current location is unknown.

The Foundation, having earned as much intel as needed from the stealth missions into the RFS compounds, and having destroyed their communications towers, is ready to take action against the Squadron in the form of direct assaults prior to relocating. They still face the issue of bringing in troops into the union, however, and remain only able to send in one agent at a time.

The first run on the second operation involves the agent heading to the outpost closest to Home Base, dropped in at the zone near Alpha compound. They'll be provided a horse for travel.

The outpost isn't very large. In total, there are a dozen guards patrolling the base, two watchtowers, command tent, small armory area and radio tent. Four of the patrolling guards are Red Wolf members. The agent has to enter the mission area, and clear it out however they see it.

At some point, a truck will arrive, carrying three more RWS soldiers, one of them manning a machinegun, and one of the men behind R-425F-9, Yevgeny Zolnerowich. Zolnerowich speaks English, and can be interrogated, or killed.

The character may find intel indicating that there is a large, underground compound somewhere on the other side of the Baikal. Zolnerowich may also provide this information.

Christian is able to provide the character with gear to give them the same amount of stat boosts as Artyom got, and grant them gear derived from the items he found at the Beta compound.
