The Federation has detected alarming Arachnid activity near Holden Prime. Intelligence indicates that the Bugs are massing for a major offensive, and the city is their likely target. After days of intense evacuations, the civilian population is safely out, but now the true battle begins.

Operation Iron Shield is underway. The Mobile Infantry unit stationed at Holden Prime, known as the Iron Eagles, has been ordered to hold the sector at all costs. With the streets deserted and the skyline ominously quiet, the stage is set for a brutal showdown. The Bugs are coming, and they won’t stop until everything in their path is overrun.

Defend Holden Prime and the surrounding sectors. Failure is not an option, Trooper.
