Private Kent Hays escaped from his helicopter crash with a handful of nasty injuries, but ever mindful of his mission made his way to the military outpost to the west. The rescue mission was probably impossible, but he had to try.
When he got there, he found the outpost under assault by ants, who were attacking some of the bandits who had seized it.
The bandits were acting strangely - they became hostile upon seeing Pvt Hays, but mostly stood in place raving at him, not firing or anything. If he got too close to one, they would rush him and attack while their companions stood back.
Suddenly the mission looked feasible, as he could pick them off one by one, and move around them to lead ants and other nasties to them. There was a hairy moment with a big gang of C.H.U.D.s bursting out of a cell, but they too got led to the front gates where ants and bandits killed them.
The outpost is mostly secure now, and Private Hays been scouring the site looking for a way to get the captive soldiers out of their cell. An acetylene torch looked handy, but there weren’t any welding goggles to be found, nor any mechanics books on how to make them. Eventually a toolbox with a hacksaw turned up, so that’ll have to do.
Also, the mad, raving bandits seem to have jammed all the furniture they could find into this one little room for some reason:

Weird, right?
