OK, Mueller's got a flyer waitin' that will bring you and your crew to Paragon City. It's a simple job, get in, get the info, get out.

Once you finish whatever his deal is, make sure you come back and let me in on a piece of the action. You'll do that, if you know what's good for you. Otherwise... Well, there ain't gonna an otherwise, is there?

Security Codes
This file contains some security codes. You're not sure why Hero 1 would hide this info in the time capsule or why Mueller would want it, but recovering them pays well and that's all that really matters.

Thus Spoke The Reichsman
Part Two: Wrong Place, Reichs Time

Briefing

OK, we got a chance to make even more dough with that squint Mueller. He's got another job that I can throw your way for the usual consideration.

Now that you got him that location and those security codes, he wants to go use them. That means he's gotta go to a secret base under Boomtown, which means he needs some help. Serious help. And you guys are about as serious as they come. So, what do you say? You up for heading into a dangerous situation with ol' Mueller?

Mission Acceptance

Yeah, that's the ticket. you know the drill; we got a flyer waiting to take you guys off to goody-goody land. We should be able to land you close enough to the objective that you'll be able to get in before anyone in Boomtown can notice. Once you're in the base, the fun begins.

Here's a reminder for you. Mueller's gonna go with you, since only he knows what he's after in that base. Try to make sure he comes back in one piece; he's our payday at the end.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You still need to kick the 5th Column out of Boomtown.

Mission Objective(s)

Dimensional Experiments
These computer files detail the various experiments performed by the 5th Column scientists on the subject of alternate dimensions and paranormal energy. Your first read of the documents reveal that they are working on some kind of device to help Reichsman, but the details are buried under a lot of scientific mumbo-jumbo. It's going to take a detailed study to get to the bottom of exactly what they're attempting.

Debriefing

What? Mueller's information led you to free Reichsman and then he got blown up for his trouble? And you guys didn't get paid? That gets me steamed, Character. I hate not getting paid for your hard work!

I'm sure you ain't happy about this situation either. What say we get a little revenge against this jumped-up fascist bozo who took out my contact and left us with nothin' in our pockets. Le me look over this info, see if I can get an angle on him. Come back when you're ready and we'll find a way to get ours... even if we have to take it out of his hide!


Go Talk To Lord Recluse

Return of the Reichsman
Part Three: Sweet Revenge

Briefing

I can't believe we got cheated out of our payment by that Reichsman clown, Character. We gotta do something about this, especially since it sounds like those 5th Column cumps are gunning for us. I've been reading over that information you found, and it sounds like Reichsman is planning something big back in Boomtown. We can get our revenge by messing with Reichsman's invaion.

So Lord Recluse is going to be all hot and bothered about some clown invading Paragon City. That's like someone stealing his thunder. Maybe you should go talk to him and get some troops to keep the 5th Column rank and file busy while you deal with Reichsman. If you work it right, you can even get him to pay you for your 'help'.

Mission Acceptance

Hey, watch yourself. The info in those files you found says this Reichsman is one bad boy. He's going something to increase his power. Don't be shy about living to fight another day, if you know what I mean.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk with Lord Recluse

{{Mission Briefing|Contact=Lord Recluse|Text=This situation you describe is most troubling, Character. I cannot have the 5th Column infesting Boomtown, not when I have plans of my own for the area. I thank you for bringing this problem to my attention before it became a major thorn in my side. But what to do, what to do. I am not yet ready to move against Paragon City but I fear that those heroes will misread my intentions if I send any of my lieutenants to deal with the 5th Column.

Tell Recluse you'll lead the attack

You are offering to take the lead on dealing with this Reichsman, Character? How... noble of you. Oh, I am certain you have reasons of your own for this kind offer, but far be it from me to look a gift horse in the mouth. If you take a flier to Boomtown and help deal with this little 5th Column problem, I will make sure that your efforts are backed by some of my troops. See what you can do to stop this Reichsman and the 5th Column, and I'll make it worth your while.

Tell Recluse you're heading to the flyer

You are an interesting man, Character. I shall have to keep an eye on you in the future. I trust that if you can't crush this petty invasion head on, you will be clever enough to find some other way to go about it. In fact, I almost hope Reichsman proves to be a challenge as I am curious as to what other plan you might formulate to defeat him. I wish you success in this endeavor, Character.

Foil the 5th Column in Boomtown

Mission Objective(s)

The 5th Column sure moved fast. If you start knocking some heads, you can probably get that Reichsman to come out from wherever he's hiding.

Invincible Reichsman
When you faced Reichsman in Boomtown he seemed to be unbeatable. You're going to need to figure out why he's so tough and find a way to counter it if you're going to have a chance of taking him down. And, somehow, you know you're going to have to be the one who deals with this guy.

Debriefing

While you were dancing with that super-Reichsman, I had some people look at that information you got from the 5th Column base. Man, no wonder you couldn't take down the Reichsman! He's doing something to super-power himself.

I think I know where you can find out what's makin' Reichsman so tough, and maybe how to stop it or use it to give you an edge. Let me know when you're ready to go and figure out how to end this problem...

Go to Axis Earth and find the source of Reichsman's power

Return of the Reichsman
Part Four: Finding the Source
Briefing

So, Character, the tech guys looked over those files you found back in that 5th Column base and came up with some bizarre theory on why Reichsman is so damned tough. They think he's working with those freaks from his home dimension to do something to supercharge him. The techies suggest you go to Axis Earth and find information on just exactly what these guys are up to.

Mission Acceptance

If them Axis worlders are like their 5th Column counterparts, they've probably the information on a computer in a base. You should beat up on some of their soldiers to find the base and then... well, you know what to do.

Empowering Reichsman
According to this information, Reichsman is empowering himself by stealing the energy from his counterparts, those other Marcus Coles from the different dimensions. The confluence of this energy makes him effectively unstoppable. From reading through the files, you know that Reichsman's got some kind of big machine back on Earth Prime that's holding tose alternate Reichsmans and siphoning the energy to him.

The machine like it is very well defending. And you know you can't stand up against Recihsman in his current empowered state. But you think you can his machine on you and your crew, to give you the edge you need to take him down.

If you get a very few powerful beings into the machine, you can use it to give you some defenses and counters to Reichsman's new powers. Maybe you can convince Lord Recluse to lend you his lieutenants for this. You might just get away with it... if you don't tell him why you need them.
