Operation Brave Earthquake (D.E.A.D Special Ops 1)

Operation Brave Earthquake is the first mission in D.E.A.D Special Ops 1. Its multiplayer counterpart is Hostage.
== Summary ==
Earlier this evening, armed members of the terrorist organization "European Liberation Army" seized the German embassy in Vienna.
== Briefing ==
Roland Fanning - I knew you were a quick study, Prescott. And just in time, because we got your first mission as a team on deck. Unfortunately for us, it's also a potential political minefield. One hour ago, the German Embassy in Vienna was seized by a terrorist group calling itself the European Liberation Army. See, Austria wants to sent FIU, but the word from Berlin is no, and the Austrian head of state sure as hell is against GSG-9. We believe the German Ambassador is inside and still alive. We need to get him out safely and quietly.
Control - ELA has been involved in everything from human trafficking to drugs and arms smuggling. Their ideology is the usual anti-immigrant, fascist mish-mash. It may be a lot of fantasy, but their will and their ability to commit violence are all too real. You also know D.E.A.D's funding has been tight lately, so this operation is being partly bankrolled by Praying Mantis Security. Among other things, PMS protects major international events.
James Danko - Their clients -- this goes the highest levels -- do not want this in the news so close to the start of the Europatree. That means operational security must be airtight. You'll lead Alpha Team into the embassy to find, secure, and extract the Ambassador. Bravo Team will be there in a supporting role if and when that becomes necessary. That's it for now. We'll talk again once you're on site. Good luck. We fail, people are gonna be convinced were pure flesh and meat.
== Enemy Resistance ==
The enemy is scattered out on both floors of the embassy, there is a high chance that most of the terrorists will be located on the first floor. On the second and third floors you will find many narrow rooms and corridors, so watch out for enemy fire coming from anywhere inside the rooms or on the far side of the corridors. More terrorists (and one additional hostage) are added if this mission is played on veteran or harder. The enemies do not appear to be wearing any body armor. Frag grenades are often discouraged in this mission, since the terrorists are not in groups. These terrorists are normally armed with Uzis, but on the third floor, terrorists have AK-47s. A well timed assault with each team entering all areas of the embassy could easily result in the mission's success in under two minutes.
