Liberty Coalition Army 2nd Lieutenant
Nathan Frost has been transformed.
There was that last searing blast from
the bomb, an excruciating gurney
ride into the surgery unit — Frost
wondering if he even had a face left
— some strange talk about BP, pulse
and…scarecrows?
Now he is alert, standing, disoriented a little,
but stronger than before.A sense of extreme
power is coursing through him and he sees
apprehension in the eyes of all who pass.
Frost has been transformed into the
prototype. He is the first-born in a top
secret program to create
a bio-augmented
super-soldier.
Now that joke
about a oneman army
is true...

WHO ARE YOU?
You are Nathan Frost, a bio-enhanced super soldier. In addition to weapons expertise
with firearms and explosives, you can use specialized bio-augmentations. These
bio-augmentations were surgically hard-wired into your body.You now have lethal
combat skills never before seen on the battlefield.
But there is a tactical downside.You are vulnerable to EMP (Electro Magnetic Pulse),
which can disrupt your onboard electronics and render you momentarily
or permanently helpless. Your bio-augmentations begin to fail and you become
snowblind until your systems recover.
MISSIONS
You must complete missions as issued by Coalition Command. In every mission
you must complete all primary objectives (objectives are added as the mission
proceeds), protect yourself and protect your men.You will undertake two different
mission types:
Firefight missions

Your bio-augmentations depend on electronics that are
