Date: 25/12/2012
Location: [REDACTED]
Unit: IU Ironclad Viper
Report Author: Agent [REDACTED], Codename: "Bodkin"
Clearance Level: Level 8

1. Objective:

• Primary Objective: Secure intelligence and/or assets from [REDACTED].
• Secondary Objective: Test the LSD-1 cloaking device on the field.
• Tertiary Objective: Neutralize and/or capture any enhanced individual(s) encountered during the operation.

2. Participants:

• Operatives Involved:
• Agent [REDACTED], Codename: "Bodkin"
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Powder"
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Mambas" (WIA)
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Adder" (WIA)
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Claw" (KIA)
• Support Units:
• Recon Unit Theta (Surveillance)
• Medical Team Nu (Post-Battle Medical Assistance)

3. Timeline of Events:

• Time: 0200 - 0324
• Actions Taken:
• 0200: The target facility was successfully infiltrated. Operatives bypassed the security systems undetected.
• 0220: Recon Unit Theta detected an unexpected dimensional energy spike and a new heat signature within the target facility. The decision was made to investigate the anomaly.
• 0230: Operatives discovered one (1) unknown male individual in metallic combat gear and armed with one (1) pole weapon. Unknown male individual is henceforth referenced to as Unknown Subject.
• 0232: Unknown Subject was confronted. The attempt at establishing a channel of communication was met with hostility. Unknown Subject overpowered Operative Claw with enhanced strength and agility and inflicted a fatal injury to Operative Claw.
• 0233: Remaining operatives engaged Unknown Subject in direct combat. Despite superior numbers and long-ranged weapons, Unknown Subject demonstrated advanced combat abilities and inflicted severe injuries to Operatives Mambas and Adder. Standard tactics employed to subdue enhanced individuals failed.
• 0236: Operative Powder deployed experimental sedative A-35 via a Void Piercing projectile. The Void Piercing projectile wounded the Unknown Subject but didn't kill him. Experimental sedative A-35 temporarily incapacitated the Unknown Subject, and he was subsequently restrained. Wounded operatives were given emergency treatment.
• 0256: Remaining operatives evacuated the target facility with fallen operatives and Unknown Subject. No further resistance was encountered.
• 0302: Medical Team Nu provided medical care to wounded operatives.
• 0324: Operatives and Support Units withdrew from [REDACTED].

4. Outcome Analysis:

• Objective Status:
  • Primary Objective Compromised.
  • Secondary Objective Successful.
  • Tertiary Objective Successful.
• Casualties/Injuries:
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Mambas" - Wounded in Action (Severe Injuries, Condition Stable)
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Adder" - Wounded in Action (Severe Injuries, Condition Critical)
• Operative [REDACTED], Codename: "Claw" - Killed in Action
• Enemy Forces: One (1) enhanced (Captured - Alive).
• Assets Recovered: Unknown Subject’s weapon and protective gear, fallen operatives' gear.

5. Mission Analysis:

• Achievements:
• Secondary Objective succeeded. The LSD-1 cloaking device successfully passed the on-field test.
• Tertiary Objective succeeded. One (1) enhanced individual subdued and captured alive.
• [REDACTED]'s security system was bypassed without triggering secondary defence mechanisms.
• Failures:
• Primary Objective compromised due to resources diverted towards the encounter with Unknown Subject.
• Operative Claw died and Operatives Adder and Mambas were critically injured due to failure to anticipate resistance from an enhanced individual.
• Anti-Enhanced tactics currently in use proved insufficient.
• Enemy Enhanced Tactics/Behaviour:
• Unknown Subject charged the operatives in a frontal assault. Unknown Subject exhibited advanced combat skills with polearms and preternatural strength and reflexes.
• Unknown Subject's aggressiveness seemed instinctive and not motivated by logic or membership to hostile faction(s).
• Recommendations:
• Intensify Anti-Enhanceds training. Focus on lethal and non-lethal incapacitation methods.

6. Post-Mission Actions:

• Debriefing: 25/12/2012, 0800
