JANINE'S BOTS  SPECS AND OVERVIEW  MATSU-GRAVAS GV-4 "NIGHTINGALE" MEDICAL BOT

The Matsu-Gravas GV-4 is the newest addition to the M-G line, their first foray into the medical bot category largley monopolized by Page Industies and Chiang subsidiary HealTech. Unlike the competing Page or HealTech units, the  M-G GV-4 benifits from a completely propietary operating system -- developed at M-G's research campus in Prague --that promises to revolutionize automated healing by combing a comprehensive medical and pharmaceutical database with M-G's already proven autonomous heuritics routines. While actual field data is sketchy at this point in time, anecdotal evidence suggest that the GV-4 can heal wounds far beyond the capabilites of the current model, though it does require a substantial recharging period...

Commander Grimaldi -- we liberated two canisters of this stuff along with the Ambrosia during the Liberty Island raid, but none of our people are quite sure what it is or what to do with it --possbily a biological or chemical agent, but without proper people and equipment ther's no way to tell. Lebedev suggested we keep one of the canisters and a barrel of Ambrosia here as a contingency; the rest was shipped out to the airfield an hour ago.

Commander Grimaldi:

I've completed installation of the security measures: code for the primary lock is 666. I'm heading out to help Commander Frase's team prepare for the counter strike. In the meanwhile, my best advice is keep your head down. It's going to get real messy, real fast.

Commander Frase: UNATCO has regrouped more quickly than expected and is beginning a coordinated assault on our position along with local police. They will certainly overrun our defenses eventually, but they must be delayed until the next phase of the mission can be completed. Your men will be responsible for guarding the tunnels leafing to the generation station. Dig in and arm all available defenses,

Idon't need to tell you what's at stake, good luck.

Commander Frase, we're pinned down in Hell's Kitchen and I'm not sure what to do...they're slaughtering us in the streets wherever they find us -- this one mech aug, he's like a giant walking tank, I saw someone pour a clip into him and it didn't even phase him. I've lost contact with Alpha and Delta teams, Yusuri and Thompkins are dead. I don't know what to do. We've holed up in a hotel. It's so different than training. Please tell me what we should do. If we leave, they'll kill us all. If we stay, we're dead. I've had to take hostages -- I know we were supposed to minimize civilian casualties, but I didn't have a choice. What can we

New York City: Warehouse District
Commander Weld: Code for the warehouse basement ramp is 2577. Setting up the security grid is absolute first priority -- the assault on Liberty Island will be commencing shortly and we can expect an armed response within short order. Until the mission objective can be offloaded, the generator must be protected. It's our last line of defense.

The satellite uplink is still intermittent at best; until I can track down the source of the problem, I've established a secure tunneling communications channel for you over NYCNET. It's encrypted and looks like normal public bulletin traffic to any network sniffers, so it should do until the uplink has been fixed. Login is "TFrase" and password is "valleyforge".

Juan  asked me for the hanger code, Decker, so it's 5914. Tell Young not to get his ass shot off --you know how I feel about him. And I _will_ kill you if something happens.

Take care,

Erin

Juan,

Decker let me know that Killian dropped off a canister recovered during the operation...Decker wasn't sure what it was, but he put it in a suspention crate on board the plane, coded to 9905, figured you'd know what to do with it.

See you soon,

Erin

New York City: Hell's Kitchen (Second visit)
Young:

I've got to assist our forces at the airfield, but I've pepped the security grid here in case of attack -- if UNATCO does breach our perimeter, log in a  TJefferson with the password NEWREVOLUTION and activate it immediatly. It should buy you some time, at least long enough to get to the airfield. I know Erin is looking forward to seeing you again. Don't dissapoint her.

-Decker

All:

I've released halon gas into the computer room to prevent any fires breaking out in case of assault -- obviously, anyone entering the room unprotected will suffocate. Use a hazmat suit, or pump out the gas before entering if you need to perform any maintenance.

-Decker

Paul, I'm Sending this message from the plane -- UNATCO has been even more ruthless than we'd feared and the reports I'm receiving now are that our people are being slaughtered in the tunnels; it's probably only a matter of time before I'm captured and executed, and I don't doubt that they'll kill everyone they can back at our headquarters.

If you find this, you must get a message out to our people. Align the communications dishes using the satellite dish computer -- the login is MCOLLINS and the password is REVOLUTION. Nearby is the actual communications console; log in using NAPOLEON and the same password, and a coded warning will automatically be bounced to everyone on our network

I can hear gunshots. They're reached the plane. I'm sorry I won't be able to thank you in person -- you've done so much for the peoples of the world.

JL

Juan, I have a feeling that -- one way or another -- my time is short, and I think my loyalties are being questioned. The inevitable complications from the raid are only going to raise more doubts, so I've pulled together everything I could access without raising additional suspicions.

Attatched you should find infromation linking SImons, Manderly, and other high ranking member of UNATCO through covert communications and a series of monetary payments. If you check the records, over c10,000 a month is being placed in an anonymous Zurich account routinely accessed by Manderley  -- the payments were slick, being dispersed through a number of shell companies and orbital banks, but they all originate with companies in which Simons has a controlling interest if you follow the trail far enough back.

I also manages to document some of UNATCO's less than shining operations, including their role in the Statue Bombing. Most disturbing is further verification of Tracer's suspicion that UNATCO may not only be involved with the distribution of Ambrosia but also with the Gray Death in some way.

I've given a copy of all this same material to Jock with orders to deliver it to Tracer if things get as bad as I think they might. Be careful.

A failed intrusion attempt into LabNet has unfortunately scrambled other key systems, requiring most of the security grid to reset. Until the grid is fully restored, the detention block door code has been reset to 4089 while _all_ detention cells have been reset to 4679. You will be notified when the situation has been fully resolved.

JANINE'S BOTS

SPECS AND OVERVIEW

PAGE BRAVO-3 PEACEBRINGER

The Page Industries Bravo-3 Peacebringer is an affordable security and patrol bot that combines a bipedal frame with an air-cooled mini-gun that utilizes the 7.62x51mm NATO round. While the AI is limited in it's capabilities,  it is more than adequate to the needs of most security -- and many military --forces around the world, having been deployed in such troubled hot spots as Hong Kong, Chicago, New-York, New Delhi, Moscow, and Paris. Like almost all bots designed to maneuver in urban environments, the Bravo-3 employs a radar imaging system for situational awarness, but unlike previous models in the Peacebringer line the Bravo-3 is now equipped with a RazorThorn signal processor for target aquisition. Organizations or facilites in need of heavier bot armament often turn to the larger Delta-2 Peacebringer, equipped with thicked armor and missiles...

Hey Martin, there's been some kind of security snafu so all the codes have been changed until further notice -- blanket orders from a new guy I haven't seen before, an agent of some sort. The new armory code is 2971, but don't let that get around...I just wanted you to have access in case the bots get twitchy again. That last OS upgrade seemed a bit shaky, and that makes me nervous when applied to walking gun platforms, -- Peter

PROSPECTUS: SERIES P AGENTS  proposed by Dr. Arthur Donovan (VersaLife/HK)

The Series P Agents are the logical continuation of research from the Series N: the development of a human agent with enhanced capabilities and absolute loyalty, but without the non-standard appearence of mechanical augmentation or the unpredictability of nano-augmented. Like the Series N, the strength and speed would be 78% more effective in combat than a normal operative without any form of augmentation

Key features from the Series N agent will also be carried over, including the self-termination mechanism. An ingenious variation on the "kill-switch," the self-termination mechanism is wired into the autonomous nervous system of an agent. If mortally wounded, the mechanism will activate and explode, eliminating any evidence of the agent and damaging nearby hostiles.

However, we are still continuing our attempts to isolate the source of the albino trats present ever since the Series L, but so far the simple affition of sunglasses and dark clothing appear to have resolved the matter in a practical fashion...

Surgical Pre-Evaluation    Subject: Paul Denton

...subject shows a number of departures from nominal baseline physiology, including a noted absence of all H type epsilon immunoglobin proteins which would seem to be related to his ability to tolerate nano-augmentations that are typically rejected by the vast majority of the population. Of particular interest is that the subject tests positive for the "Gray Death"  yet shows no apparent symptoms or adverse effects...

ACOUSTIC SOUND SENSOR, DESIGN AND SPECIFICATIONS

The acoustic gunfire sensor has been deployed by a number of orgaizations thoughout the world is those urban ares where it might otherwise be difficult to implement and maintain a pervasive security presence. Utilizing fairly rudimentary DSP algorithms, the sensor will trigger if any sound matching the profile of a gunshot occurs within the sensor's detection radius; field tests in Hong Kong have shown them to be 88% accurate, with an overal 12% decrease in crime within six months. Cheap and easy to instal, acoustic gunfire sensors can be fitted to buildings, lamp posts, or any other free standing structure...

Hong Kong: MJ12 Helibase
Maintenance Note!

Got a shipment of the experimental fuel, but this is scary stuff -- toxic six way to Sunday, and while the emergency purge is designed to shunt it  into the basement tanks in case of a problem, the fumes alone could creep back up the ventilation system and put most of the facility out of business. Definately lowest bid contractor work. Until I can get a hold of someone to fix this mess, I've slapped a temporary lockout on the purge valve: 99871. Give me a ring at (443) 2334-2388-123 if there's a problem.

ALL HONG KONG MJ12 PERSONEL

Hong Kong is a unique evironment for MJ12 and provides a number of challenges that all members should be aware of on a daily basis. Currently, only tenuous ties exist between MJ12 and local authorities -- though MJ12 is working to resolve that situation -- and consequently, police and security cannot be expected to understand the special nature of MJ12's charter. Agents, operatives, security, and other personnel should adhere closely to the Confidentiality Guidlines outlined in your handbook.

One key factor in police response is the use of "acoustic gunfire sensors" scattered-throughout much of Hong Kong: cheap and effective, these sensors use DSP circuity to alert authorities to non-suppressed (i.e. non silenced) gunfire. This enables police to quickly minimize theat situations in an efficient manner. While these sensors can be disabled, Central Operations does not recommend this course of action, but rather a considered evalution of any tactical situation to avoid local inervention.

We had another one of the locals attempt to hack the security keypad on the elevator -- looked like a kid this time, but he did a pretty good job of staying out of the surveillance field. Anyways, Nichole managed an override before he got in and she reset the code to 989; hopefully that'll keep them out until we can get more security on the entrance.

Lum-din, I've been wathcing the officers across the way, and with the help of a few high-powered optics and infrared scanner managed to work out the code for the police substation: 911.

Officer Tam:

Your recent reports of conflict between the Red Arrow and Luminous Path are most troubling. We will councel their respective Dragon Heads at the first available opportunity, but if further incidents occur you are sanctioned to open the ordinance vault and apply force to the participants as necessary

...since the fighting at the Canal Tunnel, the Luminous Path compound has remained silent and watchful. However, at 1938 there was an explosion and the sound of a helicopter flying from east to west, but when I attempted to locate the aircraft for visual identification I could only make out a black shape against the night sky -- it's skin seemed to absorb light like that of a shark in the deep ocean

At 2010 I began to hear reports of a gwailo, possibly the same one who created problems for the elder brother, in the market -- asking questions about things he should not be asking questions about...

Attached you will find a full surveillance report for the activities of the subject MAGGIE CHOW (HKS0084393). Ms. Chow's associations with the RED ARROW TRIAD and it's Dragon Head, MAX CHEN, are a matter of record; however, recent evidence indicates that she may also have been involved with the death of Chen's predecessor, YUEN KONG (HKS0134091), a contributing factor to the current gang war. Ms. Chow and her relationship with VERALIFE CORPORATION are also under investigation, but show a high probability of being linked to the recent conflict between the Triads.

District officers are respectfully asked to note that these are several tactical options for accessing Ms.Chows penthouse: a service entrance at the rear of the address; a renovation project in progress on the building's seventh floor; and the roof. These options are outlined more fully in the surveillance report if it becomes necessary to detain Ms. Chow or search her premises.

Party Leader Xan,

I qas much inspired by your speech to our local community resouce center and wish to do my part in helping to maintain a free China; as you have said, there are many threats to that freedom both from within and without.

It is with glad heart, then, that I am able to inform you of suspicious activities on the part of Dr. Tracey Feng. Dr. Feng has declared on a number of occasions that he believes cases of "Gray Death" are going untreated (a situation I cannot believe the Party would permit), and has often been observed leaving at odd hours on what he declares to be "family energencies,"  I believe that Dr. Feng is a good individual, with best hopes for Hong Kong and China at heart, and could thus benefit from counceling.

Ms. Chow was kind enough to bring this to my attention, and should be saluted for the many hours of entertainment and happiness she has bought to the Chinese people.

Mort --

I'm going to be off-site tomarrow, so I'm counting on you to head things up. Just FYI, the electricain completed instalation of the security system today, login QUEENSTOWER and password SECURITY, in case you get around to handling the configuration issues. (I don't think the doorman's quite figured out how to use it yet, so you might need to do some hand holding with him.)  I also set the elevator code inside the shaft to 1709 before I left, if you need to do anywork down there. Should the contractors return to work on floor seven, give them the code 3444,  Any other problems come up, you know how to get hold of me.

Mr. Hundley,

It has become necessary to change my system passoword since it may have become compromised; I will encrypt the new password and forward it io you shortly. Please note that any access attempts made using "Tai-Fun" should be tagged and traced for interrogation.

Dr. Harrison,

I was running a regression analysis on the UC, and it appears we have a serious error that could result in uncontrolled replication. Until a new version of the control system can be tested, I've installed a temporary patch that will initiate a cascading shutdown sequence -- this will also destroy the UC in the process, so use it only in emergency. The code is 525. Ops says the new system should be online within 72 hours, so stick to low yield runs until then.

Dr. Lundquist

Dr. Lundquist:

Thanks,

Dr. Lundquist

Note to self:  all tests on the emergency doors around that gizmo they've got downstair check out, tell Dr. Lundquist not to worry -- it'll seal off access to all but maintenance personnel. Door seal code: 768

Dr. Bates

I've just finished supervising the refit of the superfreighter fuel tanks to transport the virus -- this stuff should really be shipped in suspension crates, but I know you'll want to rapidly offload it once it reaches New York. The Biocontamination seals will _not_ last past 36 hours, however, and a complete Level 4 sterilization of the tanks will need to occur once the virus is offloaded to insure that there's no incidental release. I integrated some sealed pumping units into the tanks, so you should just be able to use standard YHU55 couplers and A0 micron hoses for transfer to the helicopters. But tell Simons I'd still have everyone in hazmat suits the whole time.
