WTR The Hunters in the Snow UX
Objective: Rescue and secure one hostage
Failure Condition: Angie dies
Like the other chapter one maps, this is an entirely NPC echelon map. For this map, we have a bunch of enemies patrolling around the building, most of which are a bad idea to fight. We need to use the heart rate mechanic to deal with some of these enemies to get a safe way out.
To start things off, we want to use all of our AP to move to the right. This puts us on the closed Heliport on that side of the map and we'll fight an enemy. This weaker enemy is perfect to get our heart rate up. Once you've killed them, end turn. We'll be attacked by another weak enemy, which should put us at the threshold to get the buff we need.
Turn two, move down one node, then down left one node, up left one node, then down left one node. This puts you next to the hostage at the bottom left. Rescue them and then end turn. With the buff, we should be able to handle the harder enemy that will attack on the enemy phase.
Turn three, we should be able to get to the closed Heliport over on the bottom right. Move to the right four nodes, then end turn on that closed Heliport. It will open next turn, allowing us to secure the hostage and clear the map.
