Assuming that the PCs don't do anything that immediately draws the attention of the guards, such as openly revealing themselves, the environment uses the following 4 Consequence Countdowns to illustrate the tension of the scene.

Each countdown has narrative consequences but also increases the difficulty of the environment by +2.

• Consequence Countdown (4): Once completed, the guards are suspicious that something is wrong. Increase the difficult of this environment by +2.

• Consequence Countdown (4): Once completed, the guards are alarmed and triggerhappy. Increase the difficulty of this environment by +2.

• Consequence Countdown (4): Once completed, the guards are actively searching for the PCs. Increase the difficulty of this environment by +2.

• Consequence Countdown (4): Once completed, reinforcements arrive.

Before the actual infiltration starts, have each PC describe how they prepare for the action. Have them roll an appropriate roll:

• Critical Success: They gain 3 Infiltration Tokens

• Success with Hope: They gain 2 Infiltration Tokens

• Success with Fear: They gain 1 Infiltration Token

• Failure with Hope: No consequences

• Failure with Fear: The GM gains 1 Fear as usual

Later, during the infiltration, they can spend 1 Infiltration Token to describe how they have prepared for an unforeseen complication. The preparation should relate to the preparation that earned them the Infiltration Token in the first place.

The following weakpoints in the system or structure can be discovered with appropriate Instinct, Presence or Knowledge Rolls:

• Entry through the canalisation or the roof

• The windows are barred but some seem rusty and some guards talk about how some of the older wings need repair

• The guards can be bribed as long as it is for something mundane

• There are regular supplier entering the facility with wagons

• There are regular prisoner shipments in prison cages on wagons

• The local thieves guild controls one of the wings and functions separate from the actual prison

Spend a Fear to have a group of guardsmen arrive at the Sweatshops that start patrolling the area.

A large iron bell signals the end of the current work shift. While the prisoners never leave their respective prison wings, there is a lot of commotion within the individual wing.
