Ashton Missile Silo

The Ashton missile silo is a location in the Divide.

Layout
When first entering the silo, a long wide room leads to an open transport lift. Several tunnelers appear in the area as you advance. To progress you must activate the lift and travel down to the lower level of the silo. On the way, you must survive an attack by a large group of tunnelers. This lift area appears only once. Subsequent entry to the silo from outside leads directly to the following room.

The lift exits into a small control room with a desk and computer equipment. There is a stairway to the left leading downwards, and two doors ahead and to the right. The door straight ahead leads into the Level 1 corridor, whilst the right hand door leads you to the Level 1 launch deck.

Following the catwalk around the Level 1 launch deck leads to a room accessible only by hacking the terminal next to the blast door (Science 75). Past this room is another door that leads back to the corridor noted above.

Off the corridor are an office unlockable via the terminal next to it (Science 50), and a medical room guarded by a sentry bot. Within the medical room are an Auto-Doc and a commissary terminal.

From the control room, going down the staircase leads to the Level 2 launch deck catwalk, with a locked store room (Lockpick 50) and a staircase which leads down to the remains of Level 3. Going down into the blast crater left by the launched missile leads to an encounter with more tunnelers, before reaching the silo exit to Sunstone Tower.

Notable loot

 * Eyebot upgrade circuit board - Inside the locked room along the catwalk from the Level 1 launch deck. To get there, stay on Level 1 and go through the medical area. Go through the rear door of the medical area, and turn right. The locked terminal (Science 75) is to the side of the metal door. The circuit board is found in a destroyed eyebot.
 * Big Book of Science - In the north corner of the wreckage of the Level 3 launch deck after the missile launch, just past a locked safe (Lockpick 75). The book is to the left when facing the safe. The easiest way to find this is to jump down from the catwalk just after you enter the silo on Level 2.

Appearances
The Ashton missile silo appears only in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Background
It is possible that this section is a nod to the [Cargo Elevator] level in Alien Swarm, as both have a long elevator ride while being attacked by creatures.
