“ | Commander! Intel suggests that Corpus have once again invaded the Sector and are establishing a foothold in abandoned cities. Corpus seems to be barricading these cities with some kind of new weapon. We mus prepare to pus Corpus out! | ” |
— Event Message #1 |
“ | More intel coming in Commander! Corpus has pioneered a new class of tank equipped with powerful missile batteries. Tales of this weapon's destructive power have already made it back from scouting convoys. We should not take this new threat lightly. | ” |
— Event Message #2 |
“ | Commander! We've intercepted designs for top secret Corpus Sandstorm technology. These weapons are frightening -- Corpus has been working on state of the art components for their arsenal of Sandstorms. We must strike first! | ” |
— Event Message #3 |
“ | Corpus have returned, establishing full control of the abandoned cities with unknown intent! We must attack to secure their technology and unveil their plot! Beware-- scouting reports have revealed their powerful Nightmare Tank, a machine capable of devastating platoons that stick too close together. Battle the Corpus and rally your Sector to prepare for their Sandstorm invasion once more! | ” |
— Event Message #4 - Start |
“ | You've battled hard-- the Corpus forces are reeling! This pest must be completely eradicated. If we allow even one stronghold to remain we may never see the end of them. Show them no mercy, Commander! | ” |
— Event Message #5 - 24 Hour Warning |
“ | We fought Commander! While Corpus' new toys were powerful, they were not enough to stand against us. The question still remains, why are they so interested in the ruins of the cities? What are they looking for? While out recon troops have found nothing from th destruction, we know something must be drawing Corpus dack to us. | ” |
— Event Message #6 - Event End |
“ | Greetings Commanders,
One of our recon troops has returned from her routine check of the cities. The news is not good. While we recently pushed Corpus out of the sectors, it appears that they are already back. Corpus seems to be barricading cities with some kind of new weapon. It appears that we must once again prepare and show Corpus that we will not allow them to establish a foothold. More intel coming in Commander! Corpus has brought a new class of tank with them. These weapons seem to be equipped with a bounty of missiles. Our recon troops saw one used to fire into the city. We should not take this new threat lightly. Commander! Top secret corpus schematics for the Sandstorm have been found. I’m going to start decoding them, but it could take some time. From what I can understand, it appears that Corpus has been working on some components for their arsenal of Sandstorms. Warning Commander! Corpus has launched another full invasion into the cities, something in these cities must be worth all this effort. Their new tanks appear to decimate platoons that stick too close together. Additionally, I have exposed that their Sandstorms are carrying new technology. We must bring their plans to a halt or risk being overwhelmed. I await your orders Commander. Best of luck! | ” |
