Introduction

This is the basis of my work, where I wrote down everything I planned for this project since the start of it. Keep in mind that I tried building everything that's written here in just 5 days, but things could have taken a different turn or not everything was completed in the first release.

Story

Intro

The year is 1943, we are in the middle of World War II. Our story's heroine is Martha, a 25 years old British pilot. She works for a secret agency, where she learned everything about battle planes to take undercover missions against german air forces. Two days ago, her father, a British general, was kidnapped by the Germans and is being held captive in their western stronghold.

Enraged at this news, Martha is on a mission to rescue her father by breaching each of the 5 main west command posts, where she will find clues on how to breach through the command post in which her father is located.

Now everything depends on you, the player, to guide her in this journey, but don't worry, the agency will help you with any means necessary each time you take down a post commander. Good luck!

Chapter 1 (Weingut I)

Martha has arrived at the 1st command outpost.

Martha: "This is it, the beginning of my mission, I will never give up, I need to save him!"

** BOSS battle **

Martha: "I guess he didn't know where my father is, but I found a note here!"

Note: "Find the giant"

Martha: "What does that mean?"

Chapter 2 (Battery Moltke)

Martha has arrived at the 2nd command outpost.

Chapter 3 (B8 Bergkristall)

Wall: "Your destiny is in the sleepless mountain"

Martha: "Hmmm"

** BOSS battle **

Martha: "I have destroyed the last outpost and found nothing."

Nigel: "That's right, Martha, put them together!"

Martha: "The sleepless mountain, it must be the Owl Mountains!"

Martha: "The toy castle, could it be Książ Castle?"

Nigel: "Yes, and I heard the Germans are building seven massive underground bases in that location!"

Martha: "Wait a minute, the 'Giant'! It must be Project Riese, that's where my father is! We must not waste time, let's go!"

** bonus **

Nigel: "Martha, congratulations on destroying this outpost, the agency sent you a gift, please choose one of them:"
