"All Ghillied Up" is presented as a flashback in which the player assumes control of Captain Price, as a lieutenant. It is set in 1996 in Pripyat, Ukraine, fifteen years before the events of the game. Pripyat is a town near Chernobyl which was abandoned after the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster. In the level, Price has to sneak across the wasteland, with his superior Captain MacMillan. The mission ends with MacMillan and Price setting up in the abandoned Polissya hotel to prepare for an assassination. The next mission, "One Shot, One Kill", concludes with a failed assassination attempt, a hurried retreat, and a final stand-off in front of the Pripyat amusement park ferris wheel.
