1
You've landed on the coast of Tunisia with Sam, Janine, Peter, and a copy of AI Veronica, who has a message from Amelia outlining your mission. Maxine has stayed on the boat to help with a measels outbreak. You need to head to a nearby settlement and then travel onwards to New Agadir where you can rendezvous with a contact.
2
Sam worries about what happens if the real Death's Hand show up, but Peter tells him that Amelia is hiring them for a job in the UK to keep them out of the way. You hear someone calling you and realise that it's Frances who stowed away on the ship to join you. Janine breaks off from berating her when she realises the sky has gone white. There's a sandstorm coming and you need to shelter!
3
Veronica says that the region has become more prone to dust storms since the apocalypse. Janine tells you to switch to comms and wear your dust goggles and masks. She gives her own to Frances. Hopefully you can reach Kalaat El-Amal quickly!
4
Veronica estimates that you have around a 3% chance of surviving the dust storm. Peter offers his goggles and mask to Janine; after all he is indistructible! Janine refuses, reminding him that he has a bomb in his body and inhaling sand might cause it to detonate. You hear a noise and realise that the sandstorm is carrying zombies! Even with your stocks of cure you have no idea if it's the same strain of the virus. Go!
5
You manage to find Sam and Frances again after being split up, but there's no sign of Janine or Peter and the storm is interfering with comms beyond point blank range. Even Veronica is struggling. You hear Janine across comms for a brief moment and Veronica thinks she might be at the outpost. Get going!
6
You manage to keep hold of Sam and Frances, and Janine manages to get a message through. She and Peter have reached Kalaat El-Amal, and they are boosting the signal. However the gates of the settlement are closing quickly. You need to get inside! The zombie flesh has made the sandstorm potentially deadly.
7
You make it through the gates and reunite with Janine and Peter. They explain that the locals are friendly, but the last few foreign traders brought diseases with them, so you've been quarantined for three months. You'll need to find a way out or your mission is over.
