The comms tower leads to Prospect Bay, an industrial waterfront where a group of survivors led by Auntie — who knows Mags from before the war — is holding out. It’s another open area full of side content: 14 collectibles, 12 Hard Cases, 4 supply caches and 4 secondary objectives, most of them around the Gavel Dockyard and the Seradyne factory.

Sweep by area
- Prospect Bay splits into a few zones. What each one holds (everything is in the checklist above):
- Prospect Bay gate and Auntie’s hideout: A Letter Regarding Armadillos in the building by the gate.
- Seradyne Manufacturing (the weapons warehouse): its supply cache, the Young Artists Night Poster outside a nearby building, and Hard Case 12 by the cargo truck after you load it.
- Power grid station: the supply cache in the middle of the station, where you set up the defences.
- Seradyne Industries Administration: the supply cache by the reception booth.
- Gavel Dockyard — the factory: the Closure Sign by the stairs, Hard Cases 2, 3, 5, 6 and 10 (inside, on the outer railings and on the roof), the supply cache near the civilians, and Death from Above (the lever on the roof).
- Gavel Dockyard — control tower and helipad: the Docking Registry on a desk in the tower, Fire in the Hole (the injured civilian there), Hard Case 8 on the helipad, and Special Cargo, whose container next to the helipad holds the Imulsion Blast Charge.
- Gavel Dockyard — freight yard and station: the R.I.G. Component in a freight car, Jacob Palma’s tags between the cars, the Refiner’s Union Jacket in the railway transfer building, and Trapped Locust in the station control room (with Hard Case 9 in the train car afterwards).
- Keep an eye out on the way for the rest, which aren’t tied to a named spot: Calder Hunt’s tags on a rooftop, Dalia Avdol’s on a broken steel platform, Goran Ducaine’s in a ruined warehouse, the Severed Jack Bot Head, the Blurry Photo and the Maranday Apple Brandy Bottle, plus Hard Cases 1, 4, 7 and 11.
Auntie’s hideout
- Fight through Prospect Bay to the survivors’ hideout and debrief with Auntie. Pick up the map when you’re asked to — it marks the area’s points of interest.
- A Letter Regarding Armadillos is on top of a filing cabinet in the building next to the Prospect Bay gate.
The weapons warehouse
- Secure the weapons warehouse: clear the Locust around and inside it. The supply cache is inside, and the Young Artists Night Poster is outside a building nearby.
- Loading the cargo truck here makes Hard Case 12 appear beside it — don’t leave without it.
The power station
- Provide support at the power station. You get time to set up defences (sentries and traps from the supply cache in the middle of the station) before you have to defend the power station against several waves. Put the sentries where the waves come in and fall back to them.
Call HQ
- Head for the tower and use the tower comms to contact HQ. This is the stretch with the side objectives — the control tower, the helipad, the factory and the freight yard of Gavel Dockyard. Work through it zone by zone with the sweep list above — the factory alone holds five Hard Cases.
- When you’re done, speak with Auntie and get in the truck to call in the favour. That ends the chapter.
