Description
Our Stronghold at the Farm was discovered. The guard battalion managed to drag off a few of us, but thank fully they don’t know much about our plans, so the guard battalion won’t be able to get much intel out of them. Maybe you haven’t heard, but we got a demolitions expert in Northridge to cook up a set of high-powered explosives for us. We’re going to use them to take out targets on the periphery of the Armory’s east side, after which our squad there will retreat. We’re hoping they’ll lead the Guard Corps on a wild goose chase, aiving us a chance to send in

How to complete the mission?
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Prepare Your Loadout
- Armor: Light–medium (Class 2–3) – you want mobility to reach the cable car quickly.
- Primary: Versatile AR or compact DMR for mid-range engagements.
- Secondary: SMG or shotgun for close quarters inside buildings.
- Gear: Meds, bandages, a smoke grenade or two, and at least one frag/flash for emergency disengage.
- Inventory: Leave backpack space for the explosives item; a medium backpack (2–3 slots free) is usually fine.
- Team: If possible, go with 1–2 teammates – one to carry the explosives and others to cover/extract.
2. Spawn & Move Toward the Parking Lot Store
- Drop into Northridge and move cautiously toward the Parking Lot Store.
- Use cover (walls, cars, hedges) and listen for footsteps – Northridge is often contested.
- Clear the immediate area before entering the store to avoid being trapped while picking up the explosives.
3. Obtain the Explosives
- Enter the Parking Lot Store and interact with the explosives spawn (it will be an interact prompt).
- Once you pick it up, you’ll be carrying the mission item – avoid unnecessary fights from this point.
4. Move to the Cable Car Observation Deck
- Route planning: don’t retrace open ground if possible. Use alleyways, building interiors, and tree lines.
- The Cable Car Observation Deck is elevated – approach from the side/approach path least likely to be watched.
- If enemies are camping the deck, consider a flank: approach from behind or below rather than walking straight up the obvious route.
5. Hide (Plant) the Explosives
- Reach the specified planting marker on the Observation Deck. There will be an interaction prompt (hold F) to hide/plant the explosives.
- Clear the immediate area first. The interaction takes a few seconds (~5) and leaves you vulnerable. Use smoke or have a teammate watch angles while you plant.
- After planting, the objective updates. You may trigger nearby enemy spawns or attract players, so be ready to move immediately.
6. Extract via Cable Car
- After planting, go directly to the Cable Car extraction point. Cable car extractions are commonly camped – move fast but smart. Use the cable car control panel 307-to call a cable car. Pay 7,500 Koen to activate the Extraction Point.
- Successful boarding and departure completes the mission.
Tips for Success
- Do it early in the raid: hitting the Parking Lot Store early reduces chance of finding it looted or heavily camped.
- Go light and fast: you’re carrying an objective item and must reach a high-ground extraction – mobility improves survival.
- Use smoke/flash for planting & boarding: these interactions are vulnerable windows; use utilities to obscure sightlines.
- Bring a teammate for overwatch: one player plants while another covers exits/lines of sight.
- Avoid loud fights before extraction: once the explosives are planted, your priority is the cable car – loud firefights will attract squads.
Conclusion
Plan in Motion is a multi-step mission that rewards careful routing and timing more than brute force. Grab the explosives at the Parking Lot Store, stealthily carry and plant them on the Cable Car Observation Deck, then board the cable car and extract. Prioritize mobility, cover the planting/boarding moments with smoke or teammates, and avoid drawn-out fights – complete those three steps and you’ll secure 8,000 XP and 20,000 Koen.
