Description
Main objective
-Make the nest collapse by destroying the 3 columns and return to the truck


Secondary Objective
-Locate and terminate the man with the suitcase


Map Story
After your success retrieving EBE063 and surviving the antlion arena 1 and 2 events you have been promoted to team leader.

This morning an antlion attack happened on city 17. Infestation control sent a recon team, but they got wiped out. The team leader discovered what appears to be an antlion nest next to an abandoned rebel laboratory. The nest`s ceiling is supported by 3 columns. Your task is to destroy those columns to make the cave collapse destroying the entire nest. Find some explosives on the laboratory.

Crowd control has spotted a strange man with a suitcase in the area, but the team sent after him has disappeared. If you locate him, terminate him immediately.


Features
- 3 scripted sequences involving the gman
- Working train
- Collapsible cave
- Hand made explosives
- 1 usable manhack


Notes
- There is 55 resin to make enhancements
- The cave will collapse when you destroy the last column
- I totally recommend playing this addon together with Merciless antlions. I tested the difficulty with it enabled. The map is playable without it, but it could be too easy. Download it here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2461048296

Thanks klunky. You can find the card inside the laboratory if you decide to play it again

Interesting map, I loved the train mechanic. I didn't end up finishing it, I was exhausted by the end and I couldn't find the key card. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsmY4NSRqMA

🤣🤣you shouldn't worry about that. In our next map you will play as Alyx fighting against combines. We simply think antlions were maybe a little wasted on the campaign and wanted to face more than 3 of them at the same time.
About the text, it wasn't there at first, but I have seen some gameplay where people got really stuck, so I thought it was better to add some hints.
By the way, have someone here played the gothic saga? I remember when on gothic 1 they told you: exit the camp, go to the hill to the right and look for this little object we need, and you actually had to look for it, because that game didn't have a minimap with a gps pointing to the mission objective, and the object itself didn't have a big exclamation mark on top of it. I really enjoyed that saga.
Thanks for the comment!
