| “ | Entering industrial region. Locate and destroy Strogg fuel production facility. | ” |
—Mission briefing | ||
The Industrial Facility is the first level of Unit 3 of The Reckoning. It is the central hub of the Strogg industrial complex and is connected to several other areas.
The facility appears to serve support functions, including storage and distribution. Many areas are secured with locked doors or force fields. Accessing the main facility itself requires the Security Pass, which is guarded by a Beta Super Tank. Another Beta Super Tank defends the Green Key which is needed to proceed to the Outer Base. The entrance to the Refinery requires a Red Keycard which will be found elsewhere.

Secrets
- #1) When you enter the courtyard, jump onto the narrow ledge on your left. Follow it around, and then leap from concrete block to concrete block. Your acrobatics will be rewarded with the Phalanx Particle Cannon and two Mag Slugs. Alternatively, one can rocket jump to this location, at the cost of health and armor.
- #2 & #3) In the first room past the courtyard, there is a garage door that opens for Parasites to attack. Inside this garage area, look near the ceiling for a destroyable crate - behind it is a shootable button which retracts a section of floor where a Bandolier can be found, but more Parasites will appear as you descend. Then, while still inside the underfloor area, shoot the button again to raise the steps, revealing another secret - a Quad Damage.
- #4) To the left of the green keycard door, the ventilation duct dips down conspicuously. Drop into the recess and shoot the wall to find some Megahealth.
- #5) THIRD VISIT: In the room with the S-shaped staircase, on the upper floor, there are some crates with Body Armor on top. To reach it, jump on top of the little blue light and use it as a stepping stone.
Easter Egg
There is an Invulnerability on the ledge above the entrance to the Refinery, in the very corner of the open area. It can only be reached via rocket jumping. However, when you approach the Invulnerability artifact it will simply disappear and show the message "No prize for you Rocketman". The ledge itself has no wall other than the view of the surrounding Stroggos landscape, and when it is walked up an ascent towards one end the player can look through an unrendered air-wall to see partially rendered bits of the area below.
Bugs
- In the original release of The Reckoning, this level contains a missing kill on all difficulty settings except Easy. After obtaining the Green Key and heading back to the elevator area, a Gunner is meant to be waiting at the top of the elevator, but it does not spawn into the level correctly, resulting in the player being unable to achieve 100% kills. This problem is fixed in the 2023 remaster.
- The hallway at the beginning of the level contains a closet that is meant to open to release a Parasite (and it also contains a Trap for the player). However, the trigger to open this closet was rather finicky in the original game, sometimes not opening until the player had left the area, or not opening at all. This problem is also fixed in the 2023 remaster; the closet will open once the Gladiator in the hallway is killed.
- On your third visit to this level, as you proceed towards the Water Treatment Plant (near the area referenced in Secret #5) there seems to be a glitch in the original game which causes the player to hear occasional Strogg noises even when all nearby Strogg have been killed. The reason for this is unknown, but this too has been fixed in the 2023 remaster.
