My spawn into quarantine was not great.

I soon had many enemies on my tail, but I made it to a terminal where I managed an Access(Main) hack to find the research exit. I was fully intending to head there straight away, but…I found something more fun.

I equipped an alien artifact that did some pretty rad things. I won't spoil it too much, but importantly, I could see other alien artifacts on the map now. I immediately, and foolishly, headed towards one called the terminator ;) and came face to face with an alpha 7

Things were looking pretty dire as I looped around the map a couple times trying to dodge bullets, but in the end, I managed to grab the terminator and get away, exiting to -2/Research.
I grabbed another couple utility slots, and was looking to restock on sublevel 2. After a very short time, I found the exit to -1/Access! I'd never gotten that high before!
My spawn in access was a little rough.

I was stuck in a dead end with a couple patrols and a cyclops guarding the way out. Desperate, I started hacking away at walls when…

Chat was ecstatic! I didn't know what I was looking at, but this was it! The exit to the surface! I hacked open the big door and the exit was right there, I won!
