Missions:Tipping the Scales - Finale: The Last Resistance
Finale: The Last Resistance
Mission Briefing
Longbow and the US Army have occupied the area of Striga that you attacked, Character. We need to strike at the heart of the volcano as quickly as possible. You're going to have several targets.
The first are the Council's generals; the New Praetorians and Marauder will be on site to handle them. After that, you'll all split up. The New Praetorians will handle trying to destroy the rest of the facility. You'll need to take down the heads of the UPA and then bring in Calvin Scott.
- Get in, take out the base, get out. I've done this plenty of times.
I know, Character. You can do this, but be careful. Calvin Scott is not going to go down without a fight. He's going to have tricks up his sleeve. He has many skills, one of them being demolitions. Be prepared for a fight when you go in there. If you have any allies, now would be the time to bring them in.
It's time for Scott to pay for all of his crimes against humanity. He's done too many terrible things to just walk away now. It's up to you to take him down and deliver justice for all the innocents that have died in the name of his wars, Character.
Defeat Calvin Scott

Briefing
Character, we heard it all. The explosion was massive. The volcano itself is still intact, but the lava flows decimated all of the Council's built up army. Their War Walkers are gone, and the Nictus were melted almost instantly by the pools of lava. The Council's war is over, though it appears the Center is still out there, somewhere.
Calvin Scott... I suppose redemption is possible for some people, although I would have preferred he stood trial for his actions. He said he always wanted to be a hero, didn't he? That's something that you can take comfort in, Character.
It was only by your example that Calvin Scott was even inspired to sacrifice himself for the greater good. You should be proud that your actions can cause such acts in men whose hearts have been wounded by hatred.
Marauder is undergoing investigation as we speak, but I believe he will be released back under our care; evidence is piling up that he sabotaged several of the Council's schemes while he was with them. Grant Creston will recover from his wounds in a few days and he'll be back in action.
As for you... it's time, Character, for you to leave the New Praetorians. You've done more than enough to help them get off the ground. They need to go out and fight the good fight without you there to back them up. But we all know, Character, then when a true hero is needed, you'll be there; for that, I say, thank you.
- If I'm needed again, let me know.
- Oh you can be sure of that, Character. After all, I do have your number.
- What's happening with Marauder and the other New Praetorians?
- Marauder is undergoing investigation as we speak, but I believe he will be released back under our care; evidence is piling up that he sabotaged several of the Council's schemes while he was with them. Grant Creston will recover from his wounds in a few days, and he'll be back in action.
- Alec Parson is working on further advances for his Clockwork. He's using a few of them to improve our base.
- Riptide's actions have earned him a full pass by the Paragon authorities. He's been asked for some interviews by the press, but he has declined all of them. He's very reluctant to give himself the spotlight.
- Aurora seems to be troubled by something - I believe she's afraid that she lost control when she was speaking to Calvin Scott.
- Pendragon is doing well enough, though I believe something is bothering him; he won't say what exactly it is, unfortunately.
- What is the status of Emperor Cole and Praetor Duncan?
- Emperor Cole's trial is still ongoing. He actually has a laywer from Primal Earth representing him now. It will be some months before the trial is finished; Cole has done too much for this to be over so quickly. However, he will see justice, and it will be in the court of law, not by the hand of any one person.
- Praetor Duncan's fate is still up in the air. Ms. Liberty wants to try to bring her into the Vindicators and redeem her. The odds of that happening are up in the air, although Duncan is being given some credit due to her aid in the Magisterium conflict.
- Duncan's fate will be decided once she goes through the proper channels.
- Marauder gets a pass but not Praetor Duncan?
- You have to understand, Character, the nature of Duncan and the nature of Marauder. Duncan has the reputation of being a backstabber and a manipulator. We have to be careful that this isn't just some ploy on her part.
- Marauder is a fighter. He fought in the Hamidon wars, in Praetoria, and in Lambda sector to protect himself and the people of Praetoria. Even if he is rough, he has no love for what we'd call villainy.
- That is why Marauder was given a 'pass' and Praetor Duncan was not.
- What happened to the refugees?
- You can see for yourself if you go to Brickstown. They've been released into Paragon City to do as they wish. Many of them have focused on staying in Brickstown due to the presence of the New Praetorians.
- Every refugee has been offered therapy for everything they've gone through, along with a stipend from Vanguard for purchasing essentials. The US government is also providing support in getting the refugees jobs so they can build a new life here for themselves, although there is some grumbling from taxpayers about how much this is going to hurt them.
