Brief
Operation: Shadow’s End (Updated Tactical Intro) [RADIO CHATTER - ENCRYPTED CHANNEL] Nikolai: "Little Bird is in position. Engines cold, 500 meters out from the LZ. You’re on your own once you cross that threshold. Don’t keep me waiting." Ghost: "Solid copy, Nikolai. I’ve got eyes on two sentries at the North Gate. They’re static. Taking them out... thwip, thwip. North Gate is clear. You are green to move." Price: "Keep it tight. Soap, prep the charges. Alejandro, you’ve got the flank. We hit 'em hard and fast before Shepherd’s cleanup crew arrives. Remember, we’re ghosting this—no one knows we’re here until the roof blows." Soap: "Charges are set, Captain. Just give the word and I'll turn this door into a memory." Alejandro: "I’m in position on the West wall. Ready to sweep the perimeter the second Soap blows the lid off this place." Price: "Gaz, Roach—you're with me. We're ten meters from the breach point. The missile is hot, T-minus 5 minutes." Gaz: "Weapon hot. Checking corners. Let's move." Roach: (Gives a silent thumbs-up, checking his heartbeat sensor as he tightens his grip on his ACR). Price: "Soap—blow it. EXECUTE!"
Your Tactical Directive You are currently in the stack between Gaz and Roach. The heavy steel door is directly in front of you. Soap has just pressed the detonator. How do you respond? Describe your immediate reaction as the door vanishes in a cloud of smoke and pressure. Do you lead the charge into the "fatal funnel," or provide cover for the team as they descend into the basement?
