Malta Gunslinger Action Figure (41-50)

You find what appears to be an...action figure of a Malta Gunslinger? Who in their right mind would make this? You tinker around with it a bit, noticing it has a switch on the back. You flick it a few times, noticing the arm chopping up and down. You then see a small piece of paper sticking out from beneath the arm. You pull it out, reading over the secret message...

Bravo 9-

We have a traitor. Black Panther 952 has defected to Longbow. This happened at 2100 last night. Proceed with phase one of recovery. Retrieve Black Panther 952 and deliver to warehouse for mind wipe.

- Director 4

It seems that a higher up agent in Malta has defected - luckily you were able to intercept this message, straight from one of the mysterious Malta Directors. You doubt, however, that this was the only one sent. Knowing Malta, they already have a recovery team on the way to attack that Longbow base where Black Panther 952 is being held. If something isn't done soon, that base will be overwhelmed and Black Panther will be taken back by Malta!

Although...this Malta agent has probably put away a good amount of heroes. Who is he to deserve any mercy in this situation? Did he show mercy to the heroes who begged him for it? No. He doesn't belong in the hands of Longbow or Malta - he deserves to face justice. Your justice.

Hero Acceptance

Briefing

Longbow may be good, but there's no way they could possibly hold off against a full assault by Malta agents. Worst of all is that Longbow probably must keep radio silence on this, or else they'll alert even more Malta agents to this man's location!

If you don't move - and fast, that Longbow base is going to be destroyed by Malta - along with Black Panther 952!

Save Black Panther 952!

You make your way to the Longbow base - if you move fast enough, you can get there before Malta does, hopefully in time to prepare the base for the Malta assault!

Mission Objective(s)

The Longbow base is quiet - for now. You'd better find the commander of the base and tell him what's going to happen.

• Save Black Panther 952!
  • Meet with the Longbow Commander!

You've bought the Longbow Commander enough time to get the Malta Agent out of the base!

Ajax's Profile

You found some files in the Longbow base regarding Ajax, the only initial survivor of the Omega Team. After the events on that day, Ajax left the public view. When the Omega Team's capsule was opened, Longbow investigated Ajax's whereabouts. They found nothing profound - he has been attempting to drink himself into a stupor all these years, though his invulnerability makes it impossible for him to become truly drunk.

• Longbow Commander

Debriefing

You managed to fend off the large Malta assault squad within the Longbow base, buying the Commander enough time to escape with Black Panther 952. Now Longbow will have plenty to use in the long fight against Malta.

Vigilante Acceptance

Briefing

Members of Malta deserve no mercy. They willingly hunt down any super-powered being and destroy them. Just because one of them lost their nerve and now wants to switch sides doesn't mean that everything is just 'fine' now between that agent and everyone else.

You're also not about to let Malta take that agent back. You're going to bust into that Longbow base and show Black Panther 952 the true meaning of justice.

Deliver justice to Black Panther 952!

You set your mind to the goal - heading into that Longbow base to take down Black Panther 952 - no matter what.

Mission Objective(s)

Looks like Malta is already in the base. You'll have to carve a path through them to get to your goal.

• Put down Black Panther 952!
  • Rescue Blast Furnace (Optional), Defeat Black Panther 952!

You've put down Black Panther 952, showing the world that true justice shows no mercy.

Enemies

• Blast Furnace (Rogues Gallery Boss) (Non-Escort Ally)

Blast Furnance and Malta Operative Dialogue

Combat Start:

Malta Operative 1: MHI! Brace yourselves!

Malta Operative 2: Copy that, we've got an MHI, ID as Blast Furnace.

Blast Furnace: I won't be put down for long!

Malta Operative 2: We've got another MHI, ID Character!

Blast Furnace: Character!

Once Rescued:

Blast Furnace: Thanks, Character.

Blast Furnace: You're here for Black Panther too?

Blast Furnace: Looks like we're two of a kind. I'll get your back in this.

Blast Furnace: Someone needs to make him pay for his crimes, especially if Longbow wont.

Malta Operative Minion Dialogue

Before Combat:

Malta Operative 3: We've got the base locked down!

Malta Operative 4: Copy that Charlie team, confirm reports of Frostfire on the premises, over.

Malta Operative 4: We're moving out in 5, Zeta team, copy if you've got the package, over.

Malta Operative 5: Frank team just called in, they've got a MHI, Blast Furnace. I couldn't hear the rest of their transmission though.

Malta Operative 6: Bravo team, copy your message, Frostfire has been handled, over.

Malta Operative 7: Charlie team has the perimeter secured, over.

	Deleted Files
	You searched the Longbow computer for any useful information, only to find that Malta had already cleaned the computer out of all its files by implanting a virus within it. You did find one interesting note though - the virus was made directly by Director 4 of Malta. It might not be much of a clue to the director's identity, but it's a start.

Blackhawk 5-X & Black Panther 952 Dialogue

Before Combat:

Blackhawk 5-X: You brought this fate on yourself, Panther. Just be glad we're only wiping your memory.

Black Panther 952: This is it then, huh? What about all the time we served together?

Combat Start:

Blackhawk 5-X: Don't let Altered States take down Panther! We need him intact for the procedure!

Black Panther 952: Character. So the executioner has arrived, eh? I'll fight my way through all of you!

Debriefing

You've taken out Black Panther 952. Longbow won't be able to get any information out of him now, and Malta won't be bothered to use him in his current state. This will show anyone that the path of Malta is one-way - there's no going back once you make that leap.
