Essentials
If you are low on health, it may be sometime before you get a medikit. As such, be careful.


 * 1) In the south-east corner, there is a vent to enter the main tunnel. There is a total of two enemies visible, others are released later.
 * 2) In the tunnels, head to the west edge, and climb into the vent. You will encounter a lot of criters, but they are easily killed.
 * 3) Turn north t the large room and climb the stairs.  before you flip the switch to lower the center elevator, equip an explosive weapon or some other attack that is good at a large number of targets.  Lower the elevator, and kill the followers, before collecting the green key.  Use it to open the north door.
 * 4) Destroy monsters as you go down the lift and through the corridor.  Take the first north branch and locate the yellow key in the room.
 * 5) Return to the corridor, and you will directly encounter the yellow key door. Open it, enter the vent by climbing along the objects on the south-west, adn you'll return to the missile base.  A door opens for you.  Enter it.
 * 6) Go through the room, and exit the other side. This provides access to the east missile silos.
 * 7) Go up the lift to enter the eastern silos.  In the south silo, flip the switch in the south-west corner.  In the north silo, flip the north-east switch.  You can now exit the silo, and proceed east.
 * 8) You should reach a missile control room.  Flip all five switches to launch the missiles, and extend a bridge leading west.
 * 9) Head west, and turn to the right.  Collect the purple key, and use it to unlock the exit.
 * 10) When outside, use the plunger to blast open the wall.
 * 11) Proceed east, and flip the switch to the north.  This allows access to the ship.
 * 12) Clear the mines surrounding the ship, and enter it to exit the level.
