Europe, nearly 20 years after the World War. A crimson shadow looms...
Triggered by the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, the US and Europe-led NATO forces and the Soviet and Eastern Bloc-led Warsaw Pact forces stand in opposition.

Despite negotiations, no reconciliation was reached, and the situation escalated into full-scale war. Who will emerge victorious in the Battle of the North Atlantic? The Red Star of the Soviet Union, or the White Star of America...? Note: Guest holds the rank of Lieutenant General.
