Tom Clancy's Elite SquaD

Season 02 Campaign

Max Claymore Missions


My writing work from Elite Squad's Season.02 ObtainR campaign. Scroll down to read mission briefings from Max Claymore, Cole D. Walker and Sam Fisher.

Chapter 1 – NIGHTINGALE 

Hello, Commander. Welcome to Elite Squad. I’m Colonel Max Claymore, callsign Eagle One. There is a new type of hostile. Not a drone, but a weaponized artificial soldier.

We’re not sure why, but these androids have been capturing Specialists from both sides. We believe G1U was taken prisoner and is being held somewhere near Nightingale. A phantom and former Ghost, G1U has intel and technology that we cannot afford to let fall into enemy hands. We need you to secure G1U and bring him back to HQ.

This is a classified mission. Strike swiftly, gather any intel you can, and try to keep the collateral damage to a minimum. HQ would rather this operation doesn’t make the front page in tomorrow’s paper. Good luck!

Chapter 2 – VALETTA, MALTA

Good morning, Commander. Thanks to the intel you’ve collected we’ve confirmed these androids are prototypes developed by ObtainR. They’re a global robotics organization built by Dr. Carine Carlsen and Dr. Theodore Crane.

Now for the bad news. Fourth Echelon agent Anna Grímsdóttir was captured by ObtainR forces while she was en route to a secret meeting and is being detained in Valletta, Malta. We're sending you in to retrieve Grímsdóttir before ObtainR can force her to reveal any state secrets. Move out!

Chapter 3 – SINGAPORE

Congratulations on a successful mission in Valetta, Commander! HQ has been impressed by your expertise on the battlefield. The world’s elite Specialists are under your command. Keep up the good work. We’re counting on you!

Anna Grímsdóttir is safely back at HQ. While she was held captive, Grim managed to hack into an android’s internal computer. Turns out they’re protecting something of vital importance in Singapore. Satellite imagery shows they have set up a Forward Operating Base near the marketplace. Once you're in position, clear out ObtainR’s advance patrols, and gather intelligence about their next move. Stay sharp.

Chapter 4 – MANHATTAN

Thanks to your exemplary performance in Singapore, we were able to interview the prisoner you rescued. Dr. Carine Carlsen is one of ObtainR’s founders. She’s been through a lot, but she is cooperating with us.

According to Carlsen her co-founder, Dr. Theodore Crane has corrupted their company. Crane created C², an AI to coordinate the company’s global operations. After it survived a major cyberattack, C² retaliated by locking out all of the factory workers. That’s when it started mass producing security androids as a defensive measure. Carlsen tried to shut C² down but failed. Crane locked her up, after divulging that he and C² are building a “new super weapon”.

Carlsen says there’s a hard drive containing C²’s AI source code inside a safety deposit box in Manhattan. Secure it before ObtainR does. We’ll need it to shut C² down.

Cole D. Walker Missions

Chapter 1—SAN FRANCISCO

I’m Cole D. Walker, former U.S. Army Special Operations and leader of the Wolves. Let me be clear, Wolves pledge allegiance to their own ideals. But there are times when you must work with old rivals to ensure survival. This is one of those times. I’ve requested a meeting with John Brown’s Army at their HQ in San Francisco. Our contact is John Ming. We need to discuss this new common enemy.

In recent weeks, this new enemy has demonstrated tactical and technical superiority. It’s targeting us as “high-profile criminals”. I’ve seen what this tech can do. No matter how many guns you’ve got in your arsenal, if we stand alone, we stand as prey.

Chapter 2 – GOLDEN GATE

The meeting in San Francisco was cut short. Those androids smashed straight through John Ming’s front door. We weren’t ready for close quarter combat. JBA’s accusing my Wolves of setting a trap.

We need aerial support and evac. We’re moving to the Golden Gate Bridge. You want to keep working together? I could really use your help on this one.

Chapter 3—BOLIVIA: ITACUA

With our enemy on the prowl, getting off that bridge was no easy task. JBA’s accused me of setting a trap. Ming’s only alive because my Wolves saved his neck!

And now El Sueño, head of the Santa Blanca Cartel, is asking for help. He just got a call from one of his “business associates” in Bolivia, El Yayo. A large-scale battalion of androids has descended upon their compound. My informant has identified the manufacturer of these artificial soldiers as ObtainR. El Sueño doesn’t really care for law enforcement and wants to keep this operation quiet. To prove to Ming that I’m no double agent, my Wolves will go to Bolivia to stop the attack. I expect the support of every criminal boss in the alliance.

Chapter 4, 5, 6... PLay the MObile game!

SAM FISHER Missions

Chapter 1 – OBTAINR HQ

My name is Sam Fisher. Most of us have never worked together before, so welcome to the team. As top Specialists in your field, we need your help. Every government agent, security force, and covert operative is in imminent danger. I hate to spoil your day.

There’s a new kind of artificial soldier. Fourth Echelon is calling them androids. I’ve faced my share of technological threats, but these things are on a whole new level. We’ve traced the tech back to a company called ObtainR, based out of Phoenix, Arizona. Intel reports the facility is fortified and heavily defended. Take out the guards then salvage any intel you can. Let’s get moving.

Chapter 2 – NIGHTINGALE

You did well in Phoenix, but we still have work to do. ObtainR’s HQ had already been mostly emptied out by the time we arrived. We were able to recover a couple servers they hadn’t relocated yet.

Grim was able to hack the servers and discovered the location of ObtainR’s next target, Nightingale prison. It’s home to some of the most notorious, well-connected and dangerous

criminals. We believe ObtainR wants to extract their information, wealth, technology, criminal connections, and whatever other intel and resources they can get their artificial hands on.

We can’t let that happen. We’ll need your help to stop ObtainR’s assault on Nightingale and secure the prisoners. Preferably alive and unharmed.

Chapter 3 – NIGERIA

Impressive work. We were able to stop ObtainR’s attack on Nightingale and secure the prisoners unharmed.

Unfortunately, there’s no time to celebrate. The Ghosts are running operations in Nigeria and have run into a large-scale ObtainR detachment.

Our next mission is a standard rescue operation. Support the Ghosts and learn whatever you can about ObtainR’s next move.

Chapter 4 – RAINBOW HQ

ObtainR put up a stronger fight in Nigeria than we had anticipated. Thanks to you, we were able to recover the Ghosts. Grim’s spent all day tracking requests for backup from security forces around the globe. ObtainR is a clear threat to national security. But you already knew that.

About an hour ago, we lost contact with Rainbow Six HQ. Our Rainbow affiliated squad members are trying to reach their base, but there’s been no response. Normally we’d let team Rainbow handle this on their own, but with the ObtainR threat, I’m not willing to let them go in without backup. We’re headed to their training base in Hereford, UK.

ChapterS 4, 5, 6... Go Now, PLay the MObile game!

Play Elite Squad to see how the story ends in chapters 4-6.

The Elite Squad Ubi forward 2020 trailer. A military adviser associate and I completed the dialogue, including suggesting multiple closing lines for Sam Fisher. In the end they went with "don't make me regret this", which was my favorite. Sam is apprehensive because he has earned legendary status in the Tom Clancy's universe. He deserves great games.

This game is a love letter to the fans. A monumental showcase of characters from Clancy's past and present. My role was researching, writing and facilitating character profiles—of which there are 100+.
