[QUOTE="Falkus, post: 3842427, member: 22634"] The computer system is about a decade old, and uses an obscure, Soviet OS, but otherwise is fully functional. It only takes a few moments to dig through the index folders and find that the infiormation on Hammerfall is located in file cabinet 654-G. Which, by the laws of bureaucracy, isn't located where it's supposed to be. After roughly two hours of searching, it's finally found in a locked, disused utility closet with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the leopard.' [sblock]File on Hammerfall Base (GPS coordinates are provided, indicating a location somewhere in Siberia. A very mountainous and inhospitable region). Most of the file has been removed, apparently quite sometime ago, but the timeline of the base remains 1947- Hammerfall Base is constructed, and used for Soviet nuclear research. The base consists of a military outpost on the surface, with the labs and storage facilities deep underground. 1951- Hammerfall is shut down after the conclusion of the nuclear research. 1956- Hammerfall reactivated under control of KGB Paranormal Division. New nuclear reactor is constructed, and used as part of research into captured Gray scout ship. 1957- Gray scout ship removed and returned after deal between Grays and the Politburo. June, 1959- Research personnel arrive in preparation for Project Foresight headed by Alik Vasilev July, 1959- Delphi artifacts arrive. Project now headed by Doctor Grigori Yakovlev after the presumed death of Vasilev in Greece. September, 1959- Analysis of artifacts complete. Testing preparations begin. October, 1959- Hammerfall base is shut down and sealed on orders of the KGB after all communications are lost with the facility. All personnel in Hammerfall are reported as KIA, as well as a unit of soldiers sent inside to secure the base after losing contact. The surface base is turned into a toxic and radioactive waste dump to prevent anybody from accessing it again, and to prevent anything from getting out. File on Project Foresight Purpose: To create viable method of predicting the future in order to better create Soviet five year plans. Method: Research of artifacts recovered from a digsite initiated by the Nazis in 1943 from a site near Delphi. Headed by: Doctor Alik Vasilev (until his presumed death, then headed by Doctor Grigori Yakovlev) Initiated: June 1st, 1959 Terminated: October 25th, 1959 Result: Complete failure. Hammerfall base out of contact. All personnel involved presumed dead. Nearly all those sent into Hammerfall do not return. The few who did come out were deranged and violent and had to be eliminated as they attacked the garrison. Suggested course of action: Seal Hammerfall immediately. [/sblock] Meanwhile, Fedorov, Larry and Diego, looking through old personnel files, find Agent Boris Kyznetsov. A former KGB Paranormal operative active when the expedition had been sent. He lives right in Moscow, and has been known to assist the Institute before. After the rest of the team is done with the file, it should be possible to go visit him before going whereever you have to go next. [/QUOTE]
