MASS EFFECT ANDROMEDA Gameplay #3 - Priority Ops / Nexus Reunion [Written Commentary]
The Hyperion has docked with the Nexus, the support hub for Andromeda Initiative teams. Sadly there is no welcoming party to receive the pathfinder crew. The Nexus was badly damaged upon arrival in the Heleus Cluster in an event similar to the Hyperion's arrival above Habitat 7 caused by what they refer to as the Scourge. The resulting situation deteriorated into a lack of life support for those on board the Nexus, culminating in a mutiny and eventual exile of the rebellious force. Those remaining on the Nexus had lost hope that any arks would arrive, hence they are surprised at the Hyperion's arrival. Tiran Kandros, the head of security, escorts Ryder's team to the bridge where the Nexus crew busily prepares to receive essential power and resources from the Hyperion. Director Tann explains Ryder's first task as pathfinder. Ryder must go to the nearby planet Eos and figure out how to establish an outpost so the Initiative can gain a foothold and begin obtaining the resources it needs to start colonizing the galaxy.
