Tactical Command

Tactical Command is the final map of Unit 2 of Quake II Mission Pack: Ground Zero. It is an entirely indoors level, a facility housing large computers and laser communication systems. The facility also contains the main terminal for the Strogg ground-to-air communications. Disrupting these systems will throw the enemy air force into disarray and is thus the player's main task in this level.

Walkthrough

 * Tactical Command for the first time:

In this level you may find the most important thing of the Unit 2 - data disk, which you will need to interrupt Strogg's communication system. Proceed through the facility, eliminate Strogg resistance, obtain the data disk located near the exit to Logistics Complex and return to Logistics.


 * Tactical Command for the second time (after coming back from Logistics Complex):

After realigning the satellites' array you will be able to interrupt Strogg fighter communications by feeding corrupted data into the Strogg systems. Now security is offline so make your way to a transmitter terminal room and place data disk inside transmitter. When the data CD is accepted activate the communication laser and then bring the communications terminal online. Use the overflow tunnel to access Research Hangar and begin Ground Zero Unit 3.

Secrets:

 * #1) From start, go down the slope and there is a wall panel which displays, 'Security'. Turn around and look up, there is a shootable button on the edge of the ceiling. Shoot it to reveal a secret area and get the Double Damage.
 * #2) SECOND VISIT: When you get to the Overflow Tunnel door which leads to Unit 3 Level 1 (Research Hangar), face the door and look to the right corner; there is a gap wide enough for you to fit through to go under the water. Swim to the main part of the underwater area and look to your left to see a sparking, cracked section of wall; blow it up to reveal the last secret area, with an Ammo Pack.
