This area is the only required objective. Target is a computer in the main building which can destroy their generator, and one small sidetrack, which I will discuss in a second.

Tasty free explosives on the walls. This area is mostly about not getting noticed by the damn sniper on the NSF building until you can sneak up on ground level.

However, there's something underground here which I need desperately to speed things up later, but which is quite hard to get: Fast Run augmentation canister. I have to go down, run past turrets and toxic gas, and alert the entire base to my presence by blowing open the safe. This took a lot of tries to escape afterwards, but I eventually managed to grab it and sneak past the guards. This all adds about 45 seconds to the level, but allows me to begin upgrading the fast run augmentation earlier in the game, which saves time in a number of ways.

After that, and blowing up the reactor, it's back to base.

Mistakes:
1. Got stuck on that rail for a few seconds near the start.
2. Probably could have busted the safe faster, I kept worrying about getting cornered by guards. I can never tell where they'll be when I try to escape.
3. Spent a second or two hiding on the roof when I should've run to the copter immediately. Was waiting for Gunther to engage that sniper.
