Here is some actual help...
Go down the hill, when you get to where they are fighting, veer right and follow the beach to the other end of the camp.
You'll have to kill some operatives on the way, one will drop a key.
When you get to the chopper, kill the pilot and click on the chopper, it will take you out to the ship.
Note: Sometimes an operative respawns quickly so be careful near the chopper.Once on the ship, go down one level, then across and into the cabin, go into the next room and you will see an alliance wizard, kill him to get to the 'precious cargo'.
The rest is self explanitory.
RUN! NAO! GET TO THE CHOPPA!
