Chapter 6:

Piece by Piece

Captain MacTavish: Seems we're headed the wrong direction, Sir. Shouldn't we be coming back to the fight?

Shepherd: Plenty of fight to go around, MacTavish. Glad you made it outta South America. You're meeting up with the 6th Fleet. Leadin' the counter-strike.

[COORDINATES SET. PRISIONER 627 LOCATED]

Shepherd: Prisoner Six-Two-Seven. We believe that's who Makarov's got the mad-on for. But we can't get to him.

[OILRIGS LOCATED]

Captain MacTavish: Oilrigs, Sir?

[SPECIFIED OILRIG: VIKHOREVKA 36 OIL PLATFORM, EAST RUSSIA]

Shepherd: Russians are using them as SAM sites. Oil workers are human shields, so we can't just blow up the rigs wholesale. And this one is the least defended.

[LAYOUT OF SPECIFIED OILRIG ESTABLISHED]

Shepherd: Boys, I know I'm sending you into the meat grinder on this one—

Captain MacTavish: They're defending it, so it means we want it. Especially if it gets us to Six-Two-Seven.

[SUBMARINE LOCATED]

Shepherd: You'll be loaded into the submarine and deployed below the oilrig. Then, you will capture the rig, piece by piece, recovering the hostages as you go.

Captain MacTavish: And my squad is made up of…

Shepherd: You're with Team 2. Along with Ghost and Queen from your squad, two Navy SEALs will be joining you.

Captain MacTavish: Sounds fun.

Shepherd: Good luck, MacTavish.
