Thin the Numbers |
|
Stage 1 |
Location: | Nargith Plain (Terrace) (2, 11) |
You find 4595 locked in combat with a Shard Hunter. |
|
At the sound of your voice 4595 the grabs the Hunter's Spear with both hands and holds it still, 'These Shard are an arrogant lot aren�t they?' The Hunter tries to free his weapon but it does not move within the Droid's grasp. Only now does the Hunter seem to guess the strength of his opponent.
4595 casually glances over his shoulder, 'This Hunter said that their Cast are the primary defensive line to this Hive Cluster. If you kill 100 Shard Predators that should put a dent in their confidence. |

Stage 2 |
Location: | Nargith Plain (Terrace) (2, 11) |
You return to find 4595 standing over a shattered Hunter, 'Have you killed 100 Shard Predators yet?' |
|
4595 laughs and kicks the shard fragments at his feet, 'They do make a mess when they die. With the Predators thinned down that will make the Shard feel less secure for a while. I would guess they will not be so eager to get into a fight.'
'I have noted large columns of dust being thrown up into the air. We should check that out. Meet me in the Dunes and we shall find out what is causing it.' |

Stage 3 |
Location: | Nargith Plain (Dunes) (17, 2) |
The sands are golden and shine with heat in the near distance. The sudden change from the rocky ground of the other terraformed Shard areas is quite startling. You find 4595 standing on a large flat rock waving you over. |
|
4595 reaches for you, 'Quickly, climb up here.' Confused you clamber onto the flat rock next to him. He then points to a nearby rise, 'I saw one of the Shard monsters crawl over that a moment ago.' As soon as he stops speaking a hulking amethyst Entity lifts it's head from just under the surface of the sands. You see it scoop up a huge mouthful of golden sand in it's shovel-like mouth and turn away and crawl back over the dune. The sheer length of the beast makes you blink in wonder.
4595 sits down on the solid rock beneath him, 'I guess that Entity consumes the sand and helps the Shard in expanding their territory. If you kill 100 Sandeaters that will slow down their expansion.' |

Stage 4 |
Location: | Nargith Plain (Dunes) (17, 2) |
4595 sits waiting for you on a solid flat rock, 'Have you killed 100 Sandeaters? This will hamper the Shard's terraforming of the Dunes.' |
|
The Peace Officer slowly gets to his feet, 'That's good. With the Cluster Shards ammo gone, the bombardment has almost stopped. With the Predators and Sandeaters thinned out, it should mean that they can't gain territory as fast as they would want and their defensive line to the Hive has been weakened. I don't think for a minute we have stopped the Shard here, but we have slowed them down. We can't let the Golgesh overrun the Shard position now we have weakened them. Meet me in the Battleline and we shall try to gain access to the Golgesh encampment.'
