None
Initial Text
A man in a complex containment suit stands in front of the gates flanked by mechanized guns. His helmet nods as he looks you up and down.
"Morning, what are you here for?"
He must mean "morning" in some general sense, because there's no way to tell if the sun is up with the Slags' black haze blotting out the sky.
Summary of Choices
- Medical aid - Get inside if you have a Slags Medical ID
- New Guard - Get into the Slags if wearing containment suit
- Charge through - Fight Slags Guard. If this is the first time you've done this, he has 2 wall turrets with him. Increases to 4 turrets if you try again after successfully fighting your way through.
- Leave - Nothing
Medical aid
(Without a Slags Medical ID)
He holds out his hand, as though expecting something, then sighs.
"Sorry, can't let you in without an ID. As much as I'd love to let every idiot who drops by into the Slags…" his helmet cocks to the side as though he's staring off into space wistfully.
"Yeah, anyway, head back up the road to Midgard Bioresearch. They'll sort you out."
(With a Slags Medical ID)
He takes your ID and looks you over. You can hear the muffled sound of him speaking into a microphone.
"Alright, you check out. Enjoy your stay." You hear a muffled laugh as he lets you through into the Slags.
You step through the gate into a blasted wasteland… one that looks more like the sight of a massive battle than any sort of accident. Huge craters pit the ground, while the twisted remains of factories and office buildings stand forgotten.
(Goes to The Slags area)
New guard
(Without a containment suit)
The guard's helmet nods up and down as he looks you over. "So… CO doesn't like you much, I take it."
"Well, it's my job to make sure you don't get eaten alive, so head back to your boss. Tell him that if you don't get a containment suit, you're not getting in."
(With a containment suit)
"Another new one? Damn, we lose more every day…"
"Well, welcome aboard. Hope the Slags treat you better than they treated me." The guard makes a hand sign and the gates open behind him.
You step through the gate into a blasted wasteland… one that looks more like the sight of a massive battle than any sort of accident. Huge craters pit the ground, while the twisted remains of factories and office buildings stand forgotten.

"Junkyard to base camp, thanks for the new turrets, over."

If you win fight:
You step over his body into a blasted wasteland… one that looks more like the sight of a massive battle than any sort of accident. Huge craters pit the ground, while the twisted remains of factories and office buildings stand forgotten.

Leave
"Al…right? Have a good day." He watches as you wander off.
