“ | This Museum Island recreates Old Earth as it was before the oceans rose and nearly wiped out humanity. | „ |
Archive, Inc. is the first island in the game Into the Breach. It is led by CEO Dewey Alms and has a Temperate environment.
Upon creation of a new save file Archive, Inc is always available.
Map[ | ]
The Museum Island of Archive, Inc. is made up of 8 regions numbered 0 to 7. Region numbers are fixed, but region names are randomized. Ignore the colors on the map. The location of the Corporate HQ is always randomized.
Missions can be attempted in 4 Regions before a Hive Leader attempts to destroy the Corporate HQ.
Regions must be unlocked by attempting to complete the objectives in an adjacent region.
In the example map, Region 0 was the Corporate HQ. Regions 2 and 6 are unlocked because those regions are adjacent to the Corporate HQ. Selecting the mission in Region 2 unlocked Regions 1 and 3. The mission in Region 6 unlocked Region 4 and the mission in Region 4 unlocked Regions 5 and 7. Having attempted the missions in Regions 2, 6, 4 and 5, seismic activity by the Vek attacking the Corporate HQ destroys Regions 1, 3, and 7.
Island-Specific Missions[ | ]
Advanced Edition missions are only encounterable if "Advanced Missions" are on for a timeline.
Reputation Objectives[ | ]
- Defend the Artillery Support: 1 Reputation
- An ally and player-controllable Artillery Support is present at the start of the mission. It has two health, one movement and attacks by targeting two tiles with artillery range.
- Destroy the Dam: 1 Reputation
- A two-tile wide Old Earth Dam sits near a cluster of mountains. Destroying it converts a wide line of tiles into water, obstructing Vek movemen
- Defend the Train: 2 Reputation
