Description             : It was discovered that the UAC has an underwater
                          base, UB1 (information not previously disclosed 
                          to the Military). The UAC has admitted that early
                          experimentation into dimension travel was moved
                          to this location to maintain secrecy on the
                          technical end.  Experiments went off as planned
                          with the exception of several minor mishaps
                          with UAC personnel only.  Hours before the
                          the invasion of Earth, communication with the
                          base broke off.  There was no reported emergency
                          but no one has attempted contact for lack of
                          time and priority (after all, most UAC members
                          were busy trying to save their own butts after
                          the invasion).  Top UAC officials believe that  
                          a rival corporation, WEEST Inc., having had more
                          than one corporate spy "removed" from UAC,
                          discovered UB1 and somehow managed to "gain
                          control" of it from UAC staff.  If this is true,
                          WEEST Inc. personnel would be unprepared for the
                          power and capabilities of the DTP's (Dimension
                          Test Platforms) - they might destroy themselves
                          and UB1 with them.  As a member of Team Alpha, an
                          elitist Military unit, you have been summoned to 
                          teleport to the dockpad, gain entrance to UB1,
                          seize control, and repair the communication 
                          tower.
