In Response To: Re: What about the bomb? (VikingBoyBilly)

: Speaking of Mjolnir Recon number 54, it seems odd that she would know that
: she's been directing a Mjolnir mark IV battleroid, yet later on, she's
: surprised when nine others reveal themselves to exterminate the pfhor on
: the planetside colony and concludes they were smuggled aboard before the
: marathon's launch for "wicked ends."

: But of course, Durandal and Tycho both know the tru 7 h all too well ;)

: Does a "Mjolnir recon" denote something else? Like a soldier
: trained for reconnaissance missions? It would seem to fit the background
: story he's been given with his implanted memories, and Mjolnir could just
: be a military name used to brand soldiers and cyborgs.

What makes you think she knew? The terminal where the Mjolnir Recon number 54 reference appears is garbled. The transmission was interrupted and that part of the communication may have come from another source. It is most likely a communication between Tycho and Durandal. In the original level notes for Marathon, Tycho played a bigger role in the defence of the ship and this may be some legacy text of this role.

I like to think that at the very end of the game Leela didn't know who you really were and nor did you…
