[edit] Cutscene

Cutscene opens with the aftermath of the last battle, a Marine pulls a dead Elite onto the platform, Anders, Forge and a group of Marines make their way towards the Relic interior.

Anders: Sergeant, is this what the aliens were after?

Forge: Seems so, ma'am. They sure paid a price trying to defend it, all quiet now.

Forge tells his men to hold up, Anders approaches the Relic and moves to activate it, Forge stops her.

Forge: Hey! What do you think you're doing?

Anders: Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Forge lets go, Anders activates the Relic, a star map shows up.

Anders: Now that's...not what I expected!

Behind the Marines several Stealth Elites with Needlers disengage their Active Camoflauge.

Elite: Heresy! Remove this filth!

Elites engage the Marines, who move for cover; the Relic deactivates

Marine: Take cover! Move!

Forge takes cover with Anders and another Marine. A different Marine tosses Forge his Shotgun.

Forge: These guys just don't know when to quit!

Marines return fire on Elites, killing a few but taking casualties, as well.

Forge: Uh, Spirit, Forge. We're going to need a little backup.

[edit] Gameplay

Forge: This is Forge, we've been ambushed at the Relic site! I'm pinned down with Anders, we're taking heavy losses, we need reinforcements now!

Captain Cutter: Sergeant, Alpha Base won't be able to respond in time, we've got Grizzlies inbound from Spirit of Fire, hold on down there.

Serina: Ah, Grizzly tanks, Forge's pet project.

Forge: This is Forge; we're under heavy fire!

Forge: I've got men down, where are those reinforcements?

Grizzlies finally reach Forge, Anders and the Marines.

Forge: About time, I was down to my last clip.

Anders: Grizzlies. Well, at least I know how to repair them.

Forge: I made a few improvements, my own special upgrades.

Forge: Cover me; I'm pulling back with Anders.

Forge: Those Grunts are carrying explosives, look out!

Two Grunts plant explosives at the bridge controls and detonate them, killing one of the Grunts.

Forge: They've blown the controls. We're cut off!

Anders: Get me to the east bridge's control panel, I think I can get it activated.

Forge: Once that's fixed, we're moving out!

Anders: Give me a minute, and I'll get this bridge operational.

Forge: You heard the lady, let's give her some privacy.

Forge: Watch those doors, looks like company's coming.

Anders: Got it! The bridge is operational!

As they near the entrance, multiple pairs of Hunters appear.

Forge: Hunters! There's too many! We need to make a run for the exit!

Marines outside begin to fire on the Hunters.

Marine: Sergeant Forge, we got your back. Get Anders out of here.

Forge: Get to the LZ!

Forge: Forge here! We made it, ready for extraction.

Level ends

Captain Cutter: Good work! Professor, I want to be briefed on your findings as soon as your onboard.

[edit] Trivia

• If you lose all your units and Forge and Anders are downed, you will not get a mission failure, but you will be unable to finish the mission.
• Until rescued, the Marine squads by Forge and Anders will be able to take a lot of damage, but will die slowly. However, they will end up killing a lot enemies, making them gain ranks, allowing them to live longer.
