Setting

Umbara. Rex wants three operators. IGN lists this after Stillwatch and Strike Action on the hub; the nine-mission request on this wiki still treats it as the ninth named job.

Objectives

  • Extract double-agent commando Baker.
  • Reach his position in three turns and rescue him.
  • Hold the middle until backup arrives.

Squad

  • Three operators. Hawks, a heavy, and Tel-Rea.
  • Expect close trooper packs and a short zone defense.

Route

  • Opening stretch is free-roam and straight. Grab +10 Intel and a +3 Advantage scope.
  • A scene: a rookie drops the slow Baker, who kneels amid road crates. You start beside that road — push up and take cover.
  • Waves keep coming from the north. Crates only shelter you briefly.
  • Afterward a stronghold is named; Hawks volunteers and is waved off. Rex says Trick is back — return to the ship.

Tips

  • Thin targets, blast clusters, and let Tel-Rea’s blades finish groups. Allied Umbarans mainly pull enemy attention.
  • The IGN hub also lists Stillwatch and Strike Action between Behind Enemy Lines and Deep Cover, plus Unfinished Business and The Infinite Coil with no hub links. Those pages are not part of this nine-mission set.

Rewards

  • +3,000 Credits
  • +3 Contacts

Choices

None. The only beat is Hawks offering help and being dismissed.

Source boundary

IGN’s walkthrough hub still says the campaign guide is in progress. This route is IGN’s observed path on the mission page, not the only legal clear. “No two players will complete a tactical mission in the same manner.”
