The Story
Gold at the end of the rainbow...
Two wealthy Irish businessmen have built their fortunes on a secret—they are both leprechauns, hiding in plain sight. Using their financial empires as cover, they arrange for a massive shipment of gold to be transported via a private cargo plane to a secure vault overseas.
Unbeknownst to them, the plane is shot down mid-flight over a remote, war-torn region, scattering their treasure across hostile terrain. Each assumes the other had a hand in the crash, suspecting betrayal in an attempt to claim sole ownership of the fortune. Fueled by paranoia and centuries of leprechaun trickery, they independently hire rival private military companies (PMCs) to retrieve the gold—under the pretense of recovering stolen corporate assets.
As the two PMCs descend upon the crash site, conflict erupts. Mercenaries clash in the jungle, each side convinced they are retrieving their rightful employer’s gold while dismissing the other as thieves.
Get The Gold!
How to win...
There are three primary ways of winning Grayzone.
- CONTROL: Controlling different points of interest throughout the area of operations will insure that friendly forces and research teams can conduct their research safely.
- LOCATE GOLD BARS: Each team is tasked with locating gold bars that were scattered throughout the area of operations. These gold bars are free game to the PMC units on the field and can be exchanged for gifts. To each their own!
- LOCATE POTS OF GOLD: Each team will be tasked locating and acquiring pots of gold found throughout the area of operations. However, the clients have stated that these pots of gold cannot be touched by anyone but the client themselves. Therefore each team will need to locate these pots of gold and escort their clients to them for retrieval.
