I arrived at an abandoned nuclear power plant via helicopter to retrieve a rare package from the Highwaymen. After Roger departed, I infiltrated a massive cooling tower using a ghost perk for invisibility. I neutralized several guards stealthily, but after failing to find a path to the summit, I redirected my focus toward the main facility.
An abandoned nuclear power plant had been overtaken by the Highwaymen. Roger Cadoret, our pilot and mission giver, flew me close to the facility.
After landing near the perimeter, Roger flew away while I watched his departure. He mentioned he would return to extract me once I'd secured the rare package from the enemy.
I noticed this was a huge place, dominated by a massive cooling tower on the left and a large industrial building on the right. The pink flame indicated the package was inside the right-hand structure.
I decided to get close to the big tower first. I thought gaining a height advantage would allow me to scout the entire area and tag the Highwaymen patrolling the grounds below.
After reaching the base of the tower, I noticed a Highwayman stationed there. I had initially thought this part of the structure would be empty, but they had guards everywhere.
Activating the ghost perk to stay invisible for a short time, I crept toward the guard. I took a headshot to eliminate him before he could alert the rest of the camp.
I heard the noise of a vehicle nearby. To hide my tracks, I picked up the dead body and threw it into the shallow, murky water at the base of the tower.
I started climbing further and encountered another Highwayman. I took her down quickly by stabbing her right in the chest before she could to face me with a counter attack.
I tried using a grapple point to climb higher up the pillars. I struggled to find a path to the very top and didn't quite understand how the grapple points were supposed to connect.
I heard the vehicle's noise very close by and moved to a vantage point. I noticed a Highwayman driver stopping for a moment before speeding away toward the main building.
After looking around for a moment, I realized there was no way to get to the very top of the cooling tower. I abandoned my plan of reaching the summit as it seemed impossible.
I decided to leave the tower behind and head toward the other side of the power plant. My focus shifted to the main building to finally track down the package I came for.
How about we continue in another post?
Thanks for reading my post.

It is a bit disappointing that you could not reach the very top of the cooling tower, but scouting the base was still a tactical win. You cleared out two guards who won't be bothering you later.
This mission feels dangerous from the start. The abandoned nuclear plant gives a scary mood. Using the ghost perk to stay invisible was a smart choice.
You did an excellent job adapting your plan when the climb became impossible. Recognizing when a strategy isn't working and shifting to the main objective shows great mission focus.
Climbing the cooling tower was a good idea. Trying to get a higher view to scout the area was part of the attacking planning but sadly you could not able reach the top.
The stealth moments you captured were very interesting in this part. Hiding the bodies and moving slowly made the mission feel realistic. Now that you are heading to the main building, the real action is about to begin.
I liked how you described the scale of the facility. It is a massive area to cover, but you are navigating the perimeter like a pro so far.
