This page includes a transcript of Before the Hallowed Tomb, the second Imperial mission of Uprising.[1]
Introduction[]
- Tatsu: Excellent work, Commander. But the Soviets are still threatening our borders. Now these arrogant gaijin are preparing to take Oki Island so they can turn it into a naval base. Oki is not just any ordinary island. It's the sacred resting place of my father's remains. The Allies have an occupation force which is supposed to be maintaining order. But the spineless cowards are hoping they can just ignore this threat. So we'll have to take matters into our own hands. Do not let the Soviet barbarians dishonor my father and descecrate his final resting place.
Briefing[]
Mission summary[]
- Intel Officer: The Soviets are making a play for control of Oki Island and the Allies have turned a deaf ear to our request for help. They show no regard for the sanctity of this place. As the resting place of our emperors, Oki Island is the ancestral pride of our nation and must remain under our control. Your mission is to stop the Soviets from desecrating our Imperial tombs and from getting a foothold over these islands. You may need to use the Allies' own forces to do this. Honor the late Emperor's will.
Mission objectives[]
- Steal the Allies' Vehicles
- Sink the Soviet Navy
- The Emperor's Tomb Must Not Fall

STEEL RONIN - Most Imperial soldiers found guilty of treason or war crimes are promptly executed. The most experience ones, however, instead are locked in a sort of solitary confinement within the massive frame of a Steel Ronin assault suit. There they would lie for years in a fugue state, to be awakened for battle only in the event of the Empire's darkest hour.
Mission script[]
Introduction[]
- Tatsu: We cannot lose this location to the Soviets. The memory of my father and the honor of our empire depends upon it. The attack is impending, and yet the Allies here are refusing to help us. We're not going to ask again for their help, we're going to take it. Capture some of the Allied units to help defend the islands until reinforcements arrive.
Primary Objective 1: Steal the Allies' Vehicles[]
[When the player's forces approach the Allies' base]
- Allied troop: Containment area breached! Sound the alarm!
[When the player captures the first Pacifier FAV]
- Imperial troop: We claim this tank in the name of the Empire!
[When the player captures all of the Pacifier FAV units]
- Imperial troop: Take the vehicle--it's on our soil!
[When the player captures a Multigunner IFV near the Pacifier FAVs]
- Imperial troop: I'm sure the Allies won't miss one more IFV gone from their base.
Primary Objective 2: Unpack a Pacifier at Each Ambush Point[]
- Intel Officer: Now that you have acquired the Allies' field artillery vehicles, position them along the coast at the designated points. Once there, use their special ability to deploy them, so that they may bombard the Soviets from long range.
- Giles: Ahem. Excuse me. It seems we're missing a few vehicles from our base. You wouldn't happen to know anything about that... would you?
Primary Objective 3: Garrison the Steel Ronin[]
- Intel Officer: The Steel Ronin have come to fight for you to the last. They are bound to guarding these tombs as penance and may yet regain their honor in this battle.
[When the player garrisons the first Steel Ronin]
- Imperial troop: Time to defend the Empire once again.
[]
[A sizable fleet of Soviet naval units arrive.]
- Moskvin: What? What is this? You little vermin, eh? Heh heh! I will enjoy shutting you down quickly.
- Soviet troop: It's an ambush!
- Imperial troop: The Soviets are incoming, defend the Emperor's Tomb!
- Imperial troop: They're getting closer to the Emperor's Tomb! Quickly, take them out!
- Soviet troop: They're along the coast, take them out, now!
[When the player completes the objective, a view of Moskvin's primary base is seen.]
- Moskvin: You know I'm going to crush you with my boot heel soon enough. Please, accept defeat before my anger takes control of me.
[A neutral Imperial Mobile construction vehicle accompanied with four Mecha Tengus appear, eventually granted to the player.]
- Soviet troop: Destroy everything! Leave no building standing!
Primary Objective 5: The Emperor's Tomb Must Not Fall[]
- Tatsu: Good job holding your ground. The Soviets press us, however. Keep the tomb of my father intact.
Primary Objective 6: Capture and Hold the Observation Posts[]
[When the player approaches a Soviet outpost with a Barracks]
- Soviet troop: Get our defenses up, now!
- Soviet troop: Capture that Observation Post quickly!!
[When the player captures their second Observation Post]
- Imperial troop: Another area locked down. We'll have these islands back in no time.
[When the player captures their third Observation Post]
- Imperial troop: This area is clear. Time to setup defenses.
[When the player captures their fourth Observation Post]
- Imperial troop: Need reinforcements up here!
Completion[]
- Moskvin: This time, you win. I suggest you don not celebrate quite yet. For, I promise you... Moskvin will be back.
Failure[]
[When the player has 7 or less infantry units or loses one of their Pacifier FAVs during Primary Objectives 1, 2 and 3]
- Intel Officer: You have lost too many forces in order to complete your objectives. Mission aborted.
[When the Emperor's Tomb is destroyed]
- Intel Officer: You have failed to defend the Emperor's Tomb. Aborting mission.
