## Overview

Dell Conagher, the RED Engineer, or simply Engineer, is in the defensive position for the RED Team survivors, and assists in building and repairing machines that aid them in their missions.

## Pyro's Massacre

Engineer was designing a nuclear rocket at the time of the massacre, and his blueprints were burned in the event of it. He ran from Pyro, escaping to a level 3 Sentry Gun. He was able to get Pyro off his tracks that way, and hid within the RED Base. He placed a Sentry in there, just in case Pyro was able to infiltrate. When he found out 3 others had a similar idea, he followed the Spy's lead and formed a miniature group. Engineer was able to repair a vehicle for them, and they drove off to 2Fort.

## 2Fort

Not wanting any part in the Peace Treaty, Engineer upgraded their base. He added better defense that would only attack BLU members within a certain vicinity. He upgraded the terminals and computer systems in the basement. He resided in tranquility after his work was done, until he decided to place a bug inside the BLU base. This bug was later found out by the Sniper, and this spawned a small rivalry between the two of them. The Engineer tried to back off, being passive on the whole situation. However, this calm attitude changed when Pyro burned down their base.

## Travels

The Engineer suggested to drive their pickup truck, and they drove off into the night as their base burned down. Engineer and Spy switched between driving and resting while they traveled, and stole a bread van after coming across a gas station. Engineer remembered that he had a friend in Texas that would be willing to shelter them, but 2Fort was based in New Mexico, and they were already heading to Arizona, so they abandoned that plan. They instead found a fairly large city, and stayed in an apartment complex for about 3 weeks. BLU Pyro, however, found them and tried to kill them off. Engineer prepared the car while Spy was battling the Pyro, hoping to leave him behind and head to Texas anyway. Spy made it out alive, and they They stayed at a hotel, where they finally agreed to go to Texas. While driving into Texas, they came across a fairly large ravine and an old RED base.

## Desert Base

Engineer worked on repairing and setting the place up. He added the main electrical systems, as well as plumbing and defense. He also began working on the missiles and underground operations beneath the base. Eventually, he found

    out that there is another base in that area, that is more expansive in the underground area. This is actually an abandoned BLU base, which was somehow run down. Throughout their stay, Engineer was in the defensive position, and fixed or worked on certain things around the base. He also played a big part in finalizing the attack plans. He was also able to recover and use a lot of the old BLU technology they found in the Bunker.

## Return of the BLU Team

When the BLU Team returned, instead offering an apology, Engineer was reluctant to accept. Spy dealt with it, and
