''Following the activation of the Chimeran tower in Bryce Canyon on May 15th, the Chimera began heavily realigning their command forces to that area. According to Dr. Malikov, there still may be large quantities of gray tech inside the canyon. Assuming this is true, we must act immediately to take back control of the area and retrieve any gray tech the Chimera have acquired. We cannot allow Daedalus to gain control of any more of this technology.  Dr. Malikov reports that the Chimera are using a widespread, interconnected series of nuclear reactors in the areas surrounding the tower. He theorizes that the towers themselves are also connected to one another via massive underground power conduits. Dr. Malikov believes that if we destroy the reactors surrounding the Bryce Canyon tower, it will trigger a chain reaction that will destroy all the connected towers. We have confirmed reports from British Intelligence that Nathan Hale, now the leader of Sentinel team Echo, used this technique successfully in the Battle of London two years ago.''
