Manual Override

From Red Faction Wiki

Manual Override is a mission in Red Faction: Guerrilla.

Summary

Vasha and the Marauders steal an EDF RM-8 missile for use with the accelerator. Samanya tasks Alec Mason with accessing the EDF's Sattelite network and protecting Vasha's truck from waves of EDF.

Briefing

Samanya This is the EDF RM-8. We'll use the Forge and arm the missile with nanites. Then we'll launch it from the accelerator into orbit. That's how we'll destroy the Hydra. With a few modifications, the RM-8 will be perfect. It's light enough for the accelerator, but strong enough to take the pressure. And it has a guidance system. The Marauders are raiding this EDF facility. They're stealing an RM-8 along with some other components for the accelerator. We need you to protect the truck.

Dialogue

Samanya Mason, check your map. We need you at this location.
Alec Mason You sure about those coordinates? That's nowhere near the target.
Samanya You're not going to the target. We're going to hook you up to the EDF Satellite network. We need you to spot targets for the artillery base.
Alec Mason So the guns are back on line.
Samanya We replaced the power cores, but we haven't tested them yet.
Alec Mason This plan keeps getting better and better.
Vasha This is Vasha. We have commenced our attack.
Arrived at comm center
Alec Mason I'm at the coordinates. This site is hot.
Samanya Secure the building, but don't destroy it. We need the computer inside.

Site cleared
Alec Mason Okay, Sam, we're all clear.
Samanya Find the computer console. That's where you'll access the network.
Connected to sattelite uplink
Alec Mason Found the console, Sam. Now what?
Samanya I'll transmit the access codes from here. Just hold on. Vasha's people have acquired the missile and are on their way. They should be coming into range soon.
Alec Mason I've got a visual on the Marauders now.
Samanya Use the satellite view to target enemy units in range. When the reticle is on the target, pull the trigger to fire the guns.
Alec Mason Find the target and pull the trigger. Got it.
Samanya We're not going to have much time, so don't let the Marauders get bogged down. Keep that truck moving.
