Mission:Tip - Discarded Picket Sign

Discarded Picket Sign

Hero/Vigilante
Level 20-30
Enemy Group: Scrapyarders

Briefing

You find an abandoned picket sign whilst fighting crime. You pick it up and read it over...

The petition sign reads: 'Raise the Wages, or Raze the Docks!' You remember hearing that the local Dockworkers' Union was protesting pay rates and working conditions as of late. Looking into it further, it turns out that the Dockworkers' Union has hired out large groups of Scapyarders from Cage Consortium to do more of their manual work! While this is all legal, it certainly reeks, given the shady practices in the past by Cage. The wording of this sign looks like the protest is beginning to get rather heated - which will be bad, considering most of the Scrapyarders are former ex-cons!

If the rhetoric continues to build, the protests could result in violence. It may be time for someone to talk to the protest leaders to calm them down before someone gets hurt. It's possible that they're already on verge of a riot. What good will words do when actions can get things done faster? Beating the rioters into a pulp is definitely one way of calming them down.

HERO: Talk down the protest leaders before it becomes a riot!
VIGILANTE: These protesters are getting dangerous! Put them down!

Hero Acceptance

The Scrapyarders are on the verge of rioting - if you can get in there and stop them, it'll help ease tensions between them and the people of Paragon!

Vigilante Acceptance The chance of those ex-con Scrapyarders listening to reason is slim to nothing - the only thing they understand is violence. Going into their warehouse to stop their riot before it begins should send a clear message to the other Scrapyarders within Paragon - be grateful that you're not in back in Sharkhead. Or else...

Vigilante Mission

You'll have two ways of taking down the Scrapyarders - the old fashioned way of beating them into a pulp, or you can put enough tear gas into the vents of their warehouse to knock out all of them at once!

• Put Down the Scrapyarder Riot
• Defeat all Scrapyarders OR Activate 3 teargas canisters

You have set the teargas canister.

You step out of the warehouse as the PPD arrive to mop up the Scrapyarders. Some of them give you a nod of thanks, though others meet you with a small glare, not approving of how you handled the situation. Not that it matters - the situation is handled, the rioters are put down. Everything is as it should be.
