Showing results for "Hades" in Military

Doctor Talbot Harrison, a professor in archaeology, receives a phone call one day which will destroy everything he perceives as reality. His brother has been mysteriously killed and within moments, the United States military appear at his door, literally dragging him from his home.

Die zu gleichen Teilen aus Einheiten der Drizil und der Republik zusammengesetzten Wachverbände wurden bereits schwer dezimiert und befinden sich auf dem Rückzug.
