Background Story

In the 21st Century technology continued to develop at an incredible pace and with it political boundaries changed every day. The European Union stood as a leading member of the United Nations and the World Trade Organization. The world moved closer to a single global economy and central government. Hunger, disease and poverty were on the decline.

But not everyone saw this as benevolent progress. Across the globe small businesses were crushed by multi-national corporations in the name of the world market, civil liberties were suspended for public safety, cultural diversity was discouraged to prevent hate crimes, religious organizations were persecuted as havens for dangerous extremists. In the democratic nation of the world, some people spoke out against the swift changes in society but to no effect. Civil disobedience was ineffectual under the new governmental powers drafted to fight terrorism. The most vocal of the non-violent protest groups were quickly identified as terrorist sympathizers and incarcerated. There was little hope for the average person to affect the course of history.

One day, that changed.

The giant empire of globalization had one fatal flaw to be exploited, the reliance on technology. A group of renegade programmers created a particularly nasty computer virus, designed to completely destroy the computer networks of the world. With the destruction of the Internet, World War III was declared. Economies crashed, governments ceased to function, sophisticated weapons systems were rendered useless and mass chaos ensued with public disorder widespread. Dissident groups across the world armed themselves and began a struggle for independence before the world powers could recover.

“The Battle of Halkyn Forest”

In the hills of North Wales, local population sieze control of the area, executing government officials and declaring Cambria a free state. The
European Union Security Forces (EUSF) are deployed to regain control of the area with minimum support due to major force commitments in other theatres of the crisis. Company sized elements of light infantry engage in guerrilla warfare for control of the area. [top]
