Operation: (none assigned)
Code Name: (none assigned)

Location: Gouverneur, New York

Example of the type of houseboat seen on the mission

Admin: Rob

Agents: J.C., Delta, & Quantum

Notes: Briefing_Summary

Injuries: Quantum

So this mission run by Rob did not have a Operation or Code Name assigned to it. Agents assigned to see if silver is there and investigate what is going on at site. Interesting things include a motorized plane, a crapload of dogs, bunch of bears, boot eating quick sand, sleep gas, and triplets. Topping it all off was one of the worst strings of bad luck that Agent Delta has had in a long time.

Operation: Liberty

Operation: LIberty

Electric sub-station

Location: Lynchburg, Virginia USA

Admin: Dave

Agents: Quantum, Caspian, & JC

Notes: Briefing & Summary

Injuries: Nothing serious

Agents travel to Richmond, Virginia. I get to use an old locking briefcase that I found in my attic from about 25-30 years ago from my previous job! E.R.I.N. wants the agents to track down a rogue employee. The employee appeared to be planning a terrorist-type attack on an unknown target. Target ended up being a critical electric substation on the East coast. I got to use a Google Earth satellite map of an actual electrical substation that is located near where most of us live. Don’t know how critical it is but the aerial view of it was awesome! Going into this mission was when I had purchased Gygax #4. In reading through that new TS mission in Gygax #4, I re-discovered the fun of introducing “rumors” into gameplay.

Sydney, Australia

Sydney, Australia

Location: Sydney, Australia

Admin: David

Agents: B.C., Nighthawk, Caspian, Wraith, & J.C.

Notes: Briefing, Summary

Injuries: J.C. mild injury from tear gas

Agents met in Sydney, Australia about a week before mission to do some reconnaissance work. This mission was a result of the failure during Operation Piscina Grande in December 2010.  E.R.I.N. computer operators began seeing some sensitive information on the Dark Web that was tied to the data stolen and not recovered during Operation Piscina Grande.  The US Department of Justice got involved and working with E.R.I.N. sent the agents in to a data center where they were to inject code on a USB drive into a target system to backtrack where the stolen data was being stored. The agency also got tipped off that there was a potential threat to the server center as well. Agents were able to perform the mission successfully. Agents confronted a good looking woman with a huge necklace (seriously; no euphemism) and got tear gassed for their effort. Agent B.C. took the role of a wealthy, eccentric and handicapped entrepreneur.

Map shows all 3 destinations of mission from safe house starting point

Location: Zurich, Switzerland; Magdeburg, Germany; Brussels, Belgium; Millau, France

Admin: David

Agents: B.C., Nighthawk, Caspian, Wraith, Rocketman & J.C.

Notes: Briefing, Summary

Injuries: Caspian sustained multiple bullet wounds (and a few pokes in the chest) 

Agents met in Zurich, Switzerland. Per mission briefing direction, the teams had to select which one of 3 locations they would be traveling to (via helicopter) simultaneously to perform the missions. They had to go to: the Magdeburg water bridge in Magdeburg, Germany; NEMO 33 indoor swimming & dive pool (deepest in the world in 2011) in Brussels, Belgium; and the Millau Viaduct bridge (highest in the world in 2011) in Millau, France.  Their missions were to use a beacon watch that would locate an encrypted USB somewhere on the grounds of the locations they were going to. They had clues to find the beacon watch and then they had to locate the USB as well as disable any explosives they found. The teams had to split up with no more than 2 agents at each location.  Nighthawk and BC went to NEMO 33, Rocketman and JC went to Magdeburg, and Caspian and Wraith went to Millau.  The mission summary goes over what happened at each location.  Agents were successful in their missions at each location.
