Ascension/Radios

There are six radios hidden in Ascension.

They need to be found in order to activate the next radio in the sequence. Each message concerns either Yuri Kravcheski, a Russian scientist who is in the Ascension group, Gersch, his superior, or both.

The Kasimir Mechanism Easter Egg
The Kasimir Mechanism is the biggest easter egg so far in the zombie series. It consists of many steps and stages (some of which REQUIRE 4 players)

Here is a video demonstration of the Casimir Device

Radio 1


"(STATIC) I give you my sincere gratitude for that... but, down to business, I am pleased to report all projects are running smoothly again after these here personal changes. As I had previously mentioned. Yuri Kravcheski is a brilliant scientist, but it he has been so far incapable of handling "Project Mercury" - or as you call it, "the Gersch Device". (a slight chuckle), and so do to numerous setbacks and delays I am forced to transfer Yuri to AK64-A experiments. I have decided that your nephew should take his place. I look forward to working with him directly. The recent incident with the Kassimir Mechanism leaves no doubt in my mind, that this is the right decision. The explosion caused the Mechanism significant damage - it will take time to re-manufacture all of the parts - unless some can be salvaged. (STATIC)"

- Gersch

Radio 2


"(STATIC-)Rockets! He transfers me to work on rockets! These experiments require no finesse, no imagination! My intellect is ill served blasting a bunch of monkeys into the atmosphere!(Sigh) But I can’t fight Gersch on this. I was able to hold onto my keys, (STATIC) as well as my research. No one else here understands what "Project Mercury" is capable of. Until then, this lab will have to do – wait, is that a matryoshka doll? Did someone let a child in-?(STATIC)"

- Yuri

Radio 3


"STATIC) -found a box today. Some lebanke left his teddy bear in it - a disgusting and filthy toy! Who keeps bringing that child onto this base?! Thank God they did not take the diary: the things I have learned about the Element (STATIC). I'll have to conduct these experiments on my own, away from the destructive hands of Gersch! His research in Project Mercury has stalled, but will HE be transferred?! I doubt it! As long as Project (STATIC) is on track, his friends at(STATIC) I must think small. (STATIC)"

- Yuri

Radio 4


"(STATIC) I assure you that our craft will be far superior to whatever the Americans... or should I say, Canadians (heh) are developing. Finally, Project Thunder is nearing completion. My staff has assured me that the remaining limitations of the effective range and power cells will be solved within the next few months - oh, and also - you should know that Doctor Kravcheski does not appear to be adjusting to his new position. He has been hostile towards the other scientists - at least, more than usual - and has frequently been seen muttering to himself. The transition must have been hard for him, but if he does not learn his place soon... I may require another, more competent scientist to replace (him)-. (STATIC)"

- Gersch

Radio 5


"(STATIC) They're entering my head! Always my head! I can't hinter, I can't, OOF, I can't stop it! Keep it out! I want you to LEAVE ME ALONE!!! Calm down there! Calm down! No, no I won't! ShutTheShutTheFuckUpSTOP! J-Just stop! Fine... Okay, okay, I will- (STATIC)"

- Yuri

Radio 6


"(STATIC) This had better be good Yuri: the fact that you're in this lab again is reason enough to have you permanently removed! If you've done anything to ruin it- (STATIC)"

- Gersch

"Do not worry, you won't be disappointed (chuckles). In fact, I'm sure you won't forget it! ...But I can't take all the credit. If you will, er, do the honors."

- Yuri

(Gersch pushes a button, and a sound similar to an activated Gersch Device. And then:)

"Having Fun?!"

- Samantha Maxis

"What the-?!"

- Gersch

(Electricity surges)

"No! (Banging on glass) No! Yuri, you-!(screams as he is presumably sucked into the Gersch Device and killed)"

- Gersch

"(Laughs evilly) You fat pig! Enjoy your bed! Heheheh, heh... Oh no. (Yuri Being Panicked) No! NoNoNoNo! NoNoNoNoNo! What have I done?! What have I do-?! (STATIC)"

- Yuri
