About this listen

Backs against the wall...

Galatea. The Mercenary's Star. Even the most down on their luck units can find work here. Leading the newly-formed Gray Death Legion has been challenging for Grayson Death Carlyle, so when a job comes their way, he’s only too happy to take it. The mission: train the local resistance on the planet Verthandi to resist their Draconis Combine masters.

But things do not go well almost from the moment the Legion arrives. Trapped on Verthandi and facing a superior force and a fractured populace, the men and women of the Legion find themselves in a situation that makes the campaign on Trellwan look like a walk in the park. And Grayson quickly learns that repeating his past successes may not be so easy this time…

The Gray Death Legion faces uncooperating clients, overwhelming opposition and everything goes wrong from the start.

Fortunately, the terrain is perfect for guerilla operations, and the Legion excell in facing impossible odds. Our Russian samurai are back, as evil as always, and they have entire regiments against a lone company and a bunch of farmers.

Like before, the author writes beautiful scenary, and dramatic battles, which blends perfectly into guerilla warfare. He definitely has read Che Guevara, as the campaign is brilliantly written.

Guerilla warfare at its finest
