Jefferson Airplane - 3/5 Of A Mile In 10 Seconds

Surrealistic Pillow Studio album by Jefferson Airplane Released February 1967 Recorded October 31, 1966 -- November 22, 1966 Genre Psychedelic rock, folk rock Length 33:40 Label RCA Victor Producer Rick Jarrard Jefferson Airplane's fusion of folk rock and psychedelia was original at the time, in line with musical developments pioneered by The Byrds, The Mamas & the Papas, and Bob Dylan.

Wild Card: You and What Army is tied in with Render unto Caesar and The House Always Wins II.

When you meet Caesar, besides asking for the bunker's destruction, he'll inform that you will choose Benny's death (if you didn't kill Benny during Ring-a-Ding-Ding). Helping Benny escape will make the entire camp hostile. If you try to release Benny, you better run out of the tent right afterward. The Praetorian Guards can really mess a player up. To stay on Caesar's good side, don't help Benny. The bunker is in the weather station at the back end of the Legion camp. A Legionary will give back your gear so that you can safely explore the bunker. Open the way to the bunker by interacting with the console underneath the red light. Inside, you'll run into a communication station through which you can speak with Mr. House. Talking with him is inconsequential since he can not remotely deactivate Bunker security. Go downstairs and take out the first protectron. In the room behind it, there are security terminals that you can use to make the Bunker safe. Hack them if you can ...
