At several points in the game, coded messages need to be decoded. The WASHINGTON codes can be decoded by looking up what numbers correspond to the letters using the in-game codebook. For example, a WASHINGTON B-E-H may decode to 8-2-5. This means you should find word 5 in line 2 of page 8 of the technical manual. For the CIA codes, the numbers need to be offset first. For example, suppose that the CIA codes are BF-F-H and E-H-A, which decodes to 81-1-5 and 2-5-0. With an offset of 3, add 3 to each digit, then reduce by 10 if needed. The decoded messages then are 14-4-8 and 5-8-3. As with the WASHINGTON codes, the decoded messages indicate a page, line, and word in the technical manual.^[+] The following pages are from the technical manual.
