Seven years after the Black Mesa incident which destroyed the facility
and prompted a military operation to hide its existence, the same
threat has again emerged.
Two members of the military team dispatched to destroy all evidence
of Black Mesa came across details of the original experiment
encrypted on a hard drive locked in a safe.
Attracted by the huge value of such data, the contents of the hard
drive were sold to Mobile Frontier, a leading technology company
looking for profitable lines of research. The contents were too
strongly encrypted to be cracked, until in 2014 the company finally
had powerful enough machines and inside information to break the
encryption.
Within 2 years the experiment was recreated under the strongest
safety conditions ever used. Again, the experiment went out of
control. Xen organisms have spread rapidly throughout the facility,
and action is needed quickly to have a chance of closing the portal.
Underestimating the threat, a relatively inexpensive team was sent out
to take care of Xen. We lost contact before they got close to the
test area.
The threat has since increased dramatically, and the Hazardous
Enviroment Combat Unit have been dispatched again, along with a
private clearance squad using a large portion of the company's budget.
Enter the facility and shut down this portal at all costs. You are
the most experienced personnel alive.
We only get one chance at this.

Recommended: 3-8 players
This part is possible with 2 very skilled players, but the later
parts will need at least one other person.
NOTE: The map will not change to part 2 when it finishes. This is
because I haven't made it yet! I will release the series under a
new name once it is complete.
