Yep, 3.

Kaplan is in the gates, the gates are open, though, and there's another Agent in there. Harley is invincible, as well as Paul. There's the lady in Philben's little house, though, that you can kill.

Kaplan, the guy next to the helipad, Collins (on the south dock) and the one who goes to arrest NSF commander. The rest of them is invincible.

Under the NSF warehouse with a generator to blow up. In the sewers.

Helping Charlie or finding a note from someone from the NSF. It should be behind a picture on one end of the upper level (don't remember which one).

Buckyballs. The male scientist makes a joke about his friend game developer from Texas, who wants to create a game with them. Probably someone from Ion Storm.

Correct, although I'm not sure if you can kill Kaplan? Either way it's more than two.

Correct.

Yes. It's behind the end opposite of the Rooks boss, behind a bunch of crates, and you need to lockpick it or blow it up.

That's right, which answers all of the questions so far..

ok I'm a-gonna ask my question now

Who is Howard Strong - I mean, who is he really, not just BP's sycophantic lackey-boy, not just that stoic retard on top of some crane in the missile silo who you kill...

There is more to his identity. Who is HOWARD STONG?

A worker of the missile silo on the New West Coast. Undercover agent of the MJ12. I don't think that there is much more to tell, unless you want to hear pre-production stuff that never got into the game.

Wasn't he an X-51 scientist (whilst being a spy)?

Meh. In the early version of the story, there were two groups in Vandenberg: Salvagers, led by Gary Savage, and Raiders, led by Strong. Raiders were attacking the Salvagers. Savage was killed in the siege and his daughter, Tiffany, would agree to help the player only if he punished the murderer. The files on Savage's computer would lead him to believe that his assistant (Strong) works for the Raiders. Then you'd need to defeat his killer spider robot with your own bot on a special arena.

But like I said, it never got into the game. What did is in my previous post.

He is or was supposed to be Gary Savage's assistant that betrayed him in the game but Ion Storm ran out of time and didn't add this in the story sadly. Ion storm decided it best to concentrate on more important characters, since he was lately introduced.

He seriously was a douche, on top a crane, in a missile silo, throwing lams! When I first saw him I just shot a 20mm at him and he exploded and I was in shock; I was expecting little more fight from him. Probably the worst developed character in the series. Worse than any IW character imo...

(BAH! Beat me to it )

You are all wrong.

Howard Strong is JC Denton's father.

That whole conversation with Helios at the end just ruined the game for me when you found out that you were cast into the waters around the statue of liberty as a child by Strong - how, somehow, there was this prophecy that one day you would kill your father and reclaim your rightful place on the throne of the MJ12. But then BP took over when you were growing up and...the whole plot just collapsed. It just didn't make any sense anymore. In some ways the ending of IW had more coherency.

Some image puzzles. What are they/where are they?
PS. They may have their angle of view changed.

That picture is WAY to tiny...I don't even see a spot on the floor. Maybe I'm getting old...
