Mission Intro, Brief & Objectives |
The Council has been monitoring unusual reports about a hijack attempt on an unauthorized French military convoy. Although the alleged perpetrators were human, our intel indicates the aliens may also have been in the area. If true, this raises a number of questions about the cargo being moved. We'll need a squad to investigate; Central should have our complete report momentarily. A French military convoy was caught in an ambush. The convoy's current status is unknown. Be prepared for anything.

Notes
- Council Reward: ???
Tactics
- Essentially a "Locate/Rescue the VIP" mission; only Thin Men appear as seeded, and airdropped enemies.
- If you're out to make an early profit, it may be better to disable Progeny:
- Portent will always be first (pushing Friends in Low Places into April), but the other two missions in this sideplot will not be for a few months afterwards.
- Annette and her fellow abductees's stats, recruited months into the game, won't be as useful as getting Zhang in just a few weeks in, including if Hidden Potential and Not Created Equally are chosen, and especially since pre-leveled recruits (such as from Abduction/Council rewards) don't benefit from OTC's Iron Will.
- What you can sell and research from Slingshot's Battleship mission in (as early as) April, vs an Abductor in late summer.
