It's been a long war. You are one of the last five members of the Blue Brigade. You are fighting for everything you believe is right, just, free and true. Your enemies for the past ten years have been the treacherous 'Yellow Coats'. They too are fighting for everything they believe is right, just, free, and true - but they are wrong! In the past year, your scientists have made advances in ballistics and issued each remaining member of the Brigade a gun. 'Even a chicken could shoot a Yellow Coat,' is what the boys in the lab would always say. But the Yellow Coats operate on stealth. There are far more of them than there are of you, and they can appear from seemingly anywhere.

They are superior in hand-to-hand combat, and if you come into contact with one, you are guaranteed a swift death. The Yellow Coats have a strange tradition of mourning their dead. Any time one of them falls in battle, other Yellow Coats immediately erect a tombstone. The inscriptions are tedious and never enlightening.

All the graves and their markers do is get in the way of your bullets and you. If you defeat enough Yellow Coats, you will win the battle but not, as of yet, the war. You will then be deployed at the next battlefield, where intel assures you that you will face an even larger and faster army of Yellow Coats.

One other thing. You might have a gun, but the Yellow Coats have bombs. Fortunately, it takes the Yellow Coats a while to engineer their bombs at first. However, as the fight goes on, their mastery of bomb-making and their skill at deploying them, are steadily increasing. Should a Yellow Coat detonate a bomb, all will be destroyed: the Yellow Coats, the tombstones, the battlefield and you with it. As a member of the Blue Brigade, you are determined to end this long war!
