*** BACKGROUND ***

 - In the panic after the fallout the blast doors to 
   the nuclear bunker were sealed. There is, however,
   the possibility of entering the bunker via the 
   main air shaft in one of the secondary ventilation 
   plants. You must fight your way to the lowest
   point of the shaft and leap down it. Otherwise you
   will perish from radiation sickness. Go, now.
