You are working in a nuclear power plant when things go a little “wrong”.

Could it have something to do with the Black Mesa Incident? Probably.

The army grunts clearly want to stop you reaching the portal. Don’t let them! Go find it.

This one is different though, a rogue group of military has stormed the building, and plans to detonate the weapon to rid the Alien invasion. You, becoming aware of this, must deactivate the nuclear device to save the innocent Scientists, and to prevent the destruction of the Black Mesa’s vast amounts of data, research and information.

Retaliation

for Opposing Force

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Author’s Note: “Retaliation picks up where Dark Operations left off. There will be no Xen or displacer in Retaliation.

Action is the main theme. It will mainly be an encounter against military targets, but there is a healthy dose of aliens too.

There will also be many sequences and a few puzzles to keep things interesting. Retaliation is the last of this series. Enjoy.”

Be sure to read the hints in the readme if you get stuck.
