Tinker Tailor Stalker Spy: #901 ( Stalker ) Loner Kruglov Container Yard Battle
I'm not a Loner. My name is not Kruglov. My task is to infiltrate any Factions that I choose, in order to investigate and seize any of the new prototype weapons and ammunition, that have illegally entered the Zone. I have left the Mercenary Faction to join the Loner Faction. I am the Stalker.
Encrypted Diary: With the Bandits as my enemy, I went south to join up with Loners who were attacking the Container Yard. Our objective was to kill a Bandit that was hiding there. All the visible Bandits were killed, and even though my infrared scanner detected 3 Bandits inside the building in the rear, I did not pursue them. If they wanted to stay back there and not get involved, then I felt it wasn't necessary to kill anymore once my objective was completed.
* Game Note: I'm not happy about this mission. I do not like killing single-named NPCs. These are characters like Fanatic, Spartacus and Gnom (Bandit at Container Yard) that can be killed but are perma-bodies, or bodies that do not disappear. Characters like Traders, Repair Techs and Faction leaders are generally invulnerable. You cannot kill them or shouldn't, simply due to Faction relations are always changing. You would not want to wipe out an entire Faction and then the next day they become your ally and now there is no one to talk to, repair your weapons or buy unique Faction items from. That is why, no matter who my enemy is, I do not wipe out their main base or attempt to expect that I should or need to.
