Red Forest -- Strategy Report
The Red Forest can be entered before, but without the psi-helm, you quickly hemorrhage and die. With the psi-helm, you can withstand limited assault before you get brain-wiped and turned into a brain dead fan-boy-or-girl. What you want to bring with you into the Red Forest are:
- NATO assault rifle
- NATO ammo, 300 to 400 rounds
- Hand grenades
- Anti-radiation or yellow medikits
- Bandages and health
- Two food items
- SEVA or equivalent armor
Head along the road to the Red Forest. The area here is heavily irradiated (stay away from metal objects), so wander off the road if you need to avoid a hot spot. Some Monolith soldiers here will have sniper rifles, but simply kill them and take their enhanced ammo and limit yourself to about 50 rounds of the 'normal' 7.62 mm x 54R ammo. You don't need that much. As for the gun (the sniper rifle) get it on your way back to the warehouses. Most of the bodies do not disappear, so you don't need to worry about it.
Brain Scorcher -- Trek to the base
What you do worry about (apart from dying) is using up your healing resources before you near the Brain Scorcher's abode. There are many deadly enemies packing hefty firepower and you want to keep them off of you while preserving your edge in resources. Your NATO rifle on semiautomatic needs to do the sniping and you should be okay.
Look out for the RPG soldier (he has infinite missiles) near the checkpoint here:
You should encounter several groups of Monolith soldiers on the road (in groups of three to four). Monolith marksmen will occasionally be on the sides with some of these groups -- or simply placed on the side of the road -- to give you a hard time as you travel north to the Brain Scorcher. Use the rocks and boulders as cover but watch for the irradiated hot zones. Enemies are not affected by the game's radiation zone (NPCs have no irradiation limit).
Note there is a swamp to the west of the road in Red Forest. IGN strongly recommends you to avoid this spot until the STALKER game is patched to deal with the multitude of entities being created. The game will keep creating illusory pseudodogs until you kill so many the game will crash. It seems (on the surface) the game tracks the enemy bodies (even though illusory enemies disappear) and you will run out of memory after a while of killing illusions.
Ignore the swamp (the place is irradiated and infinite enemies appear to attack you) and stay on the road. Once you get past the rocket soldier's checkpoint, you will have the option to go north to Pirpyat -- don't do that or the psi-levels will overkill your helmet. Continue west instead and up the hill to the Brain Scorcher's lab.
The hill to the lab is conducive to red barrels being rolled downhill (by enemies) so they can detonate them and kill you. Put your NATO gun on auto or semiauto and detonate the barrels before they get too close.
At the top of the hill you will need to use the wall to avoid being picked off by the Monolith snipers at the base. Check the illustration below for what we mean:
Snipers are in the watchtowers, and as soon as you snipe one, the Monolith soldiers will start to converge on your position. Since the spot near the wall is somewhat irradiated, you will need to be quick to use the wall as cover (at a distance) while firing through the bramble to kill soldiers coming out of the base. Alternately, you can ignore the snipers (meaning you will have to kill them later), and hug the wall of the base like so:
By placing yourself close to the base's wall, you can ignore the snipers and simply kill the soldiers who come out through the breach in the wall (easy pickings). The disadvantage to this is the area near the breach of the base wall is not only irradiated heavily, but an anomaly is nearby, making the warning alerts confusing, and looting haphazard.
In any case, the breach in the wall is your ticket into the base. Head inside and look for a traincar that rammed the southern embankment of the base.
You don't need to venture far from the breach in the wall to get to the lab's entrance; the area north of the wall is partly irradiated and heavily populated by Monolith soldiers. The caches you find are semi-useful since you have to walk back to the warehouses to store them.
Wandering around the Brain Scorcher base is a sure way to waste resources and time, so avoid doing that until after you shut down the Brain Scorcher. Enter the traincar pictured above -- kill the snipers you ignored beforehand -- and enter the Brain Scorcher lab.
Brain Scorcher -- In the lab
You should have plenty of NATO ammo, but you won't need it until the Scorcher is dead. The only enemies in the lab right now are three or four bloodsuckers. Although you may be tempted to kill them, it might be a better idea to ignore them and run past them. Enemies cannot follow you past a certain patrol zone, and keeping the mutants alive might make things more interesting afterwards.
If you do wind up exterminating everything, you will still have a butt load of ammo and items to take home (noticeably grenade ammo from item boxes in the lab). This is unfortunate since you may not want to come back to farm this obviously tough area. If you must, drop a few hundred NATO rounds near where the Bran Scorcher is found. The Brain Scorcher? Of course why not -- it's only a man made machine:
Once you shut it down, you get a cut-scene and 30 Monolith soldiers will enter the base. You will have to kill them all to get out alive. If you dropped items near the Brain Scorcher, you can use one of the dead bodies as a 'moving item box' -- dragging the corpse as you head back to upstairs.
Note that there are several points in the base where the rooms form a nice choke point where you can shutdown the enemy forces. Loot their corpses for bandages, ammo, and grenades. Use hand grenades a lot and if you find a better condition weapon than the one you've been using, remember to swap it out. If you're really cheap, you can even stash the new weapon on your 'body bag', haul it close to the exit, and then make the exchange.
Of course, it's shorter to write about this than to actually do it. See you in about 30 minutes.
All the Monolith soldiers here will tickle your radioactives detector, so once the readings are nil, you killed everyone in range. Leave the lab and get informed about the situation.
With the Brain Scorcher dead, the Red Forest map turned into a conflictive menage-a-trois. Soldiers from both Duty and Freedom will assault and attack the area (and each other), along with firing on all Monolith soldiers. Mayuri telugu movie free download. Unfortunately, the Monolith forces, having nothing to base their aggression on now, will withdraw to the edges of the map and only you (the character) will be dumb enough to fight them.
If you haven't taken the Kings' shilling on either Duty or Freedom, you can simply wait for their gun battle to end, loot their dead, and (if you are feeling generous) heal their wounded (or let them expire). Head back south to the Warehouses and assess what you have.
Are you over-loaded? Then don't bother searching for a sniper rifle. They will still be around when you come back north. The important thing is to bring the 7.62 sniper ammo with you.

A grocery store in Chornobyl. The text on the windae reads, 'Café Bar'.
Chornobyl or Chernobyl (IPA /tʃɜː(ɹ)ˈnɒb.əl/; Ukrainian: Чорнобиль, pronounced [tʃɔrˈnɔbɪlʲ]; Roushie: Чернобыль, pronounced [tɕɪrˈnobɨlʲ]) is a ceety in the restrictit Chornobyl Exclusion Zone situatit in northren Kiev Oblast, Ukraine near the mairch wi Belaroushie. The ceety haed been the admeenistrative centre o the Chornobyl Raion syne 1932.
The ceety wis evacuatit in 1986 due tae the Chornobyl disaster at the Chornobyl Nuclear Pouer Plant, locatit 14.5 kilometres (9.0 mi) north-northwast. The pouer plant wis athin Chornobyl Raion (Destrict), but the ceety wis no the residence o the pouer plant wirkers. When the pouer plant wis unner construction, Pripyat, a ceety lairger an closer tae the pouer plant, haed been biggit as hame for the pouer plant wirkers.
Efter the accident the Chornobyl Raion admeenistration wis transferred tae the neebourin Ivankiv Raion. Tho the ceety the day is maistly uninhabitit, a smaw nummer o fowk reside in hooses markit wi signs statin that the 'Awner o this hoose lives here'. Wirkers on watch an admeenistrative personnel o the Zone o Alienation are stationed in the ceety on a lang term basis. Prior tae its evacuation, the ceety wis inhabitit bi aboot 14,000 residents.[1] The ceety o Slavutych wis biggit specifically for the evacuatit population o Chornobyl.

Name oreegin[eedit | eedit soorce]
The ceety name is the same as a local Ukrainian name for Artemisia vulgaris (mugwirt or common wormwood), which is чорнобиль 'chornobyl' an aw.[2] A alternative etymologie haulds that it is a combination o the wirds chornyi (чорний, black) an byllia (билля, gress blades or stalks), hence it wad leeterally mean black gress or black stalks.
History[eedit | eedit soorce]
Oreeginally pairt o the laund o Kievan Rus Chornobyl first appeared in a chairter o 1193, describit as a huntin-lodge o KnyazRostislavich.[3][4] It wis a croun veelage o the Grand Duchy o Lithuanie in the 13t century. The veelage wis grantit as a fiefdom tae Filon Kmita, a caiptain o the ryal cavalry, in 1566. The province conteenin Chornobyl wis transferred tae the Kinrick o Poland in 1569, an then annexed bi the Roushie Empire in 1793.[5] Prior tae the 20t century, Chornobyl wis inhabitit bi Ukrainian an some Polspeasants, an a relatively lairge nummer o Jews.
Chornobyl haed a rich releegious history. The Jews wur brocht bi Filon Kmita, durin the Pols campaign o colonization. The tradeetionally Christian Eastren Orthodox Ukrainian peasantry o the destrict wis lairgely forcit, bi Poland, tae convert tae the Greek Catholic Uniate releegion efter 1596. Yet the vast majority returned tae Eastren Orthodoxy efter the Pairtitions o Poland.
The Dominican kirk an monastery wur foondit in 1626 bi Lukasz Sapieha, at the hicht o the Coonter-reformation. Thare wis a group o Auld Catholics, who opposed the decrees o the Cooncil o Trent. The Dominican monastery wis sequestratit in 1832, follaein the failed Pols November Uprisin, an the kirk o the Auld Catholics wis disbandit in 1852.[3]
In the seicont hauf o the 18t century, Chornobyl became ane o the major centres o Hasidic Judaism. The Chornobyl Hasidic dynasty haed been foondit bi Rabbi Menachem Nachum Twersky. The Jewish population suffered greatly frae pogroms in October 1905 an in Mairch–Apryle 1919, when mony Jews wur killed an ithers wur robbit, at the instigation o the Roushie naitionalist Black Hunders. In 1920, the Twersky dynasty left Chornobyl, an it ceased tae exist as a Hasidic centre.
Syne the 1880s, Chornobyl haes seen mony chynges o fortune. In 1898 Chornobyl haed a population o 10,800, includin 7,200 Jews. In Warld War I the veelage wis occupee'd, an in the ensuin Ceevil War, Chornobyl wis focht ower bi Bolsheviks an Ukrainians. In the Pols-Soviet War o 1919–20, it wis taken first bi the Pols Airmy an then bi cavalry o the Red Airmy. Frae 1921, it wis incorporatit intae the Ukrainian SSR.[3]
Durin the period 1929–33, Chornobyl suffered greatly frae mass killins durin Stalin's collectivization campaign, an in the Holodomor (faimin) that follaeed. The Pols commonty o Chornobyl wis deportit tae Kazakhstan in 1936 durin the Frontier Clearances. The Jewish commonty wis murthert durin the German occupation o 1941–44.[3] Twinty years later, the aurie wis chosen as the steid o the first nuclear pouer station on Ukrainian soil.
The Duga-3over-the-horizon radar array several miles oot o Chornobyl wis the oreegin o the infamous Roushie Woodpecker, designed as pairt o Roushie's anti-ballistic missileearly warning radar network.
Wi the dissolution o the Soviet Union in 1991, Chornobyl remained pairt o Ukraine, nou a unthirlt naition.
Chornobyl nuclear reactor disaster[eedit | eedit soorce]
Main airticle: Chornobyl disaster
On 26 Apryle 1986, Reactor #4 at the Chornobyl Nuclear Pouer Plant near the toun o Pripyat, Ukraine, explodit. The explosion teuk place at 1:23am while the neebourin toun o Pripyat slept. Twa wirkers wur killed instantly. 40 oors later, the residents o Pripyat wur ordered tae evacuate, an maist niver returned; bi that time, mony o the residents haed suffered varyin degrees o radiation pushionin.
In 2003, the Unitit Naitions Development Programme launched a project cried the Chornobyl Recovery an Development Programme (CRDP) for the recovery o the affectit auries.[6] The program launched its activities based on the Human Consequences o the Chornobyl Nuclear Accident report recommendations an wis initiatit in Februar 2002. The main goal o the CRDP's activities is supportin the Govrenment o Ukraine tae mitigate lang-term social, economic an ecological consequences o the Chornobyl catastrophe, amang ithers. CRDP wirks in the fower maist Chornobyl-affectit auries in Ukraine: Kiev Oblast, Zhytomyrska Oblast, pairtially Kiev, Chernihivska Oblast an Rivne Oblast.
Chornobyl efter the disaster[eedit | eedit soorce]
Chornobyl wis evacuatit suin efter the disaster. The base o operations for the admeenistration an monitorin o the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone wis muivit frae Pripyat tae Chornobyl. Chornobyl currently conteens offices for the State Agency o Ukraine on the Exclusion Zone Management an accommodation for visitors. Apairtment blocks hae been re-purposed as accommodation for employees o the State Agency. Due tae regulations tae leemit exposur wirkers in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone are limitit in the nummer o days per week or weeks per month thay stay in Chornobyl.
Chornobylite[eedit | eedit soorce]
Chornobylite is the name citit bi twa media soorces[7][8] for heichlie radioactive, unuisual an potentially novel crystalline formations foond at the Chornobyl pouer plant efter the explosion. Thir formations wur foond in the basement belaw Reactor #4 durin a investigation intae missin reactor fuel.[9]
