Heading down for a second attempt, the crew manage to open the shuttle’s door, which rewards them with an explosion. Undaunted, they head into the lower tunnel, which rewards them with a trio of the “green suits”, one armed with a black laser SMG. The tunnel also contains the antiquated fusion reactor powering the outpost, which unexpectedly does not explode during (or after) the firefight.
Pressing forward, they follow a tunnel upwards, back to the middle tier. A protracted battle ensues, with casualties on both sides, but the appearance of a klick forces another withdrawal.
