Mission Objective

Reconnaissance.

  • Locate Scaramanga's secret weapon cache.
  • Avoid being detected by all means as this is a reconnaissance mission.
Mission Priority Urgent.
Special Equipment GPSr required.
Mission Reference Point MRP = N50°40.000' E006°00.000' (WGS1984).
All Offsets will be given in (N mm.mmm' E mm.mmm').
Background Information Agent 007 encountered Scaramanga some years ago. 007 accomplished to destroy an important base of Scaramanga in South East Asia. Scaramanga was thought to be eliminated. Newest intelligence says he is alive and that Scaramanga went into hiding after the encounter with 007.

According to this latest intelligence, he is planning a come-back. First step was setting up a new base in Europe. Likeliest place is near Aachen, across the border in Belgium. The tri-state area is known to be a preferred area for criminals as they can slip into another country very easily.

It is assumed that Scaramanga plans something big for his 1000th contract. He therefore expects a major weapon delivery soon. Our sources tell us that the weapons will be deposited in a secret cache near his new base. Hidden clues will lead to the exact place.





Attached intelligence information

INTELLIGENCE PIECE 1

The following photo is likely to show Scaramanga in one of his recent covers. The photo was found in a tank of hydrochloric acid and was restaurated by MI6 lab. No better quality up-to-date images of Scaramanga available.



INTELLIGENCE PIECE 2

The following text was found in one of Scaramanga's Asian bases. It is unclear whether this is related to his 1000th contract. Included here for sake of completeness.


INTELLIGENCE PIECE 3

The following photo is taken from the file of Scaramanga's assistant Nick Nack. After Scaramanga's reappearance it is likely that also Nick Nack is alive and still working for Scaramanga. No later images available.


INTELLIGENCE PIECE 4

The next piece of intelligence could be retrieved in a secret hideout in Brussels. It is assumed that this was the message leading to the final depot. Unfortunately, it could not be fully restored. It must be assumed that the clue to the final depot can be found during the mission.
