OVERVIEW
Vladimir, the Russian scientist defected from the Russian regime and was enroute to the Wolverines when he was captured by the ruthless Master Blaster, who now holds the secret of Project Starfire. Your mission is to infiltrate Nuke Town, gain the trust of the wastelanders, and earn your place within Master Blaster's tribe. Once inside, get close enough to discover the location of Project Starfire and rescue Vladimir before it's too late or Dragov and the Russian Special Forces get their first.

RERUN THE HACKER
“WHAT WE DON’T KNOW CAN HURT US”
01
LOCATION: NUKE TOWN SALOON
02
OVERVIEW
We have information that a hacker named RERUN will be able to help us hack into the missing micro processor component from Project Starfire once we recover it. He works in the shadows of Master Blaster and thrives on information and pays for it. His network functions with blind drops throughout the wastelands. We were able to get you a meeting with him to work to retrieve the envelopes. Meet with him in the Saloon to get the requirements.
Individual teams will be able to search Nuke Town, scene interactions and characters for red numbered intel envelopes. These will be turned over to RERUN THE HACKER for gold coins AND OTHER REWARDS.
03
INTEL
Turn in envelopes to Rerun. Don't take more than one envelope with the same number.
04
CLUE
Sometimes items are hidden in plain sight right in front of your face! Some will require stealth and maybe bribery payment of gold coins is the only way out if you get caught! You may need to do a job for him before he will pay out and if you don't gain his favor it will cost you! The envelopes are numbered. You can only take ONE envelope with a specific number on it. For example, if you take more than one envelope with the number 3 on it you will lose 10 gold coins.
