Atom Heart Fatherland

E3M3 Running Man is the fourth and penultimate mission of the First NATO Campaign in Reds Over World; it takes place in the Bieszczady Mountains of Poland.
==Briefing==
Sir. We have recieved information that the Soviets are reactivating an old facility in the Bieszczady mountains, build by Edward Gierek, in which top secret atomic research took place. We highly suspect that they plan on continuing the development of a dangerous weapon, known as the Desolator Cannon, and God knows what else.
While we'll be deciphering the information you recieved from Mussahad, your goal is to enter this facility, and destroy it. Poland is already a warzone between us and the Soviets backed by their Warsaw Pact puppets, hence the facility is heavily guarded by a division of the Red Army, including Spetznaz operatives; we highly suspect they might have deployed drone tanks to protect the facility as well. Expect the unexpected.
We know who is running the facility; a refugee from the Polish People's Army which left after the 1989 revolution - General Wojciech Jaruzelski. Watch out for him, he's vengeful, armed and dangerous. Dismissed!
==Plot==
While Mussahad's information was being analised by NATO, Nicolas Alceste was ordered to deal with a new threat in warzone-turned Poland. As it turned out, the Soviet Union reactivated an old Communist atomic research lab in the Bieszczady Mountains, putting Wojciech Jaruzelski - Poland's former Communist dictator - in charge. The base contained a powerful Polish weapon, the Desolator Cannon, first developed by Edward Gierek.
Nicolas was paradropped near Gierek's compound, Brocken warned him about potential heavy resistance, which he soon encountered - Soviet Infantry was present, alongside a T-1000 Vezdekhod drone tank. Inside, there were also Tesla Troopers and Attack Dogs, and a Polish Supersoldier armed with tear gas. Soon enough, Nicolas reached the laboratory containing the Desolator Cannon prototype, but the moment he picked it up, Jaruzelski revealed himself and pressed a switch that was to flood the room with radioactive waste. Thankfully, Nicolas managed to escape and was now ordered by Brocken to gather all the remaining Documents containing information about prototypes.
He grabbed all three - one of them was in Jaruzelski's personal office, and had to be taken by force. Jaruzelski was dead, or so it seemed, and Nicolas was on the run to escape the facility. Once on the outskirts of it, he met several American soldiers waiting for him with a V-22 Osprey; they offered to take him back to Brussels and applauded him on his job.
Little did Nicolas know that his next job would be much worse.
==Walkthrough==
Go to the church to pick up items, around the church there are also other pickups - a Coachgun, a MP5SD, and Health Hypoes. Once you've picked up everything, climb down into the trench and go forward until you reach Gierek's compound. Grab the RPG-7 and destroy the T-1000 Vezdekhod that will reveal itself. Go inside the compound, and go through the right door; it will lead you to a room with the Bronze Key. Once you will pick it up, Tesla Troopers will appear in the previously cleared room below, so get ready to take them out using heavy weaponry.
Open the previously locked door; use the elevator to reach the Yellow Keycard; once you pick it up, a battle with the Polish Supersoldier will ensue. Kill him and go through the previously locked door in the atomic laboratory. Press the switch on the desk, and go through the now-open door that leads to the Desolator Cannon.
A battle with a second T-1000 Vezdekhod will ensue; destroy it. Grab the Desolator Cannon, and when Jaruzelski destroys the window, jump through it. Backtrack to the lab area via vent, and go through the previously locked blast doors to a newly-open area of the facility, where the rest of the mission takes place. Your goal now is to gather three pieces of secret documents.
The order in which you gather documents has no effect on the gameplay, but they're placed in a linear path, so it's good to follow it. The first documents are in a room where a Terminator is being made; the second documents are in a room behind glass next to a platforming puzzle that leads to the Red Keycard, which in turn opens up the long and heavily-guarded way to Jaruzelski's office, where the third documents reside. Now backtrack all the way to the start of the mission and go outside; a previously blocked path in the woods will now be open. Follow it until you reach the Osprey. The mission is finished.
==Secrets==
*In the yard where the Polish Supersoldier is fought, behind some crates there are Health Hypoes and a Big Medikit.
*In one of the offices (one with a anti-denatured alcohol drinking poster) there is a visible indent in the wall; once pressed, it reveals a secret passage with Health Hypoes.
==Trivia==
*The map's name is a reference to the album Atom Heart Mother by the English rock band Pink Floyd.
