Mission Objectives

Escort V.I.P. to the Skyranger.

Source: XCOM: Enemy Unknown (2012)

In an escort mission the player will start with an additional unit in the squad (the V.I.P.). The objective of this mission will be to move this unit into the extraction area. As with the rescued units on the previous mission, this unit will not have any offensive abilities, only a version of the Hunker Down ability. As the player moves along the map, enemies will drop onto the map preventing the player to leave the escort behind. If the target is lost the XCOM squad must continue to the extraction point to safely end the mission.

Research Rescue (Dr. Marazuki)

Intro & Briefing

One of the scientists serving in a remote observatory used for tracking and monitoring UFO activity in country has come under attack. We cannot allow the aliens to threaten any personnel contributing information to the XCOM project. We'll need you to deploy a squad and ensure his safe return. A high value target requires an escort for evacuation to XCOM HQ. However, hostile units in the area are on high alert, and will attempt to counter our extraction team. Escort the target to the extraction point. Protect the target at all costs.
