<D><f s="2">dmills=niacdispatch</f><s><p>Glad you made it back in one piece, kid. I just heard from Intelligence. Pran Nguyen's <I x="64" y="64" f="ltmills" a="l">journal was a godsend. There's a new movement in Argus Industrial, another command structure that's severed all ties with the old hierarchy. Nguyen thought it came up through Network 53, and it's usually accompanied by some weird biomechanical sludge that sounds like the stuff that you've been seeing. Some of the people in the new order are members of the Order of Divine Logic. You know, those wacko virtua cult guys that bug you in spaceports babbling about evolution and alien technology. That beam weapon is some vicious ordnance. We traced the source of the attack to a military base in the Earth tropics. The island is owned by Kyodai - an Argus affiliate, natch. They're bouncing the beams off of orbital reflectors to hit Earth targets. Bastards broke the treaty. Reflectors didn't show on the Treaty weapons checks. Nobody's seen  the weapon before, so I guess they were saving it for a rainy day. Well, it just started raining. We got the clearance to go in and take it out. The base is hidden somewhere on the island. Find the targeting systems and recalibrate the orbital reflector with the base coordinates. Then activate the beam to destroy the base and get out of there before you get roasted. <p><F S="2">OBJECTIVES:</F><S>Recalibrate orbital reflector.
