It is late 1940. All of Western Europe is controlled by the Axis forces. Momentarily held back by the English Channel, the German army gathers strength for an imminent invasion of Great Britain.
However, there is one man in the British ranks who will not resign himself to play a merely defensive role. This man is Lieutenant Colonel Dudley Clark. His plan: to create a special unit with a handful of exceptional men. Men who are skilled at handling all kinds of weapons and equipment. Men who are able to hit the enemy hard in the most dangerous missions. Men who can change the course of the war.
Due to the special characteristics of this unit, the officers who conceived and created the Commandos were forced to forget most of what they had learnt at the military academies. Small units, carrying out small raids, that had to be self-reliant and be able to take the initiative when faced with unexpected situations. Men with highly varied training and background, who went through mercilessly tough training at the Scottish castle of Achnacary, and left there prepared to face just about anything - except incompetent Commanders.
Throughout the entire war, the Commandos showed great unity and discipline in combat, although on various occasions, some soldiers carried out individual actions with great heroism. thus, by the end of the war the Commandos had accumulated the largest number of decorations received by a single army unit: 8 Victoria Crosses, 37 Distinguished Service Orders, 162 Military Crosses, 32 Distinguished Conduct Medals and 218 Military Medals.
This game wishes to pay a modest tribute to those men, who were witnesses and privileged actors in several of the most dramatic and decisive moments of the Second World War: Men who were fated to make History.
