Step into the year 1920, a time when the world stood at a crossroads. The aftermath of World War I had left Europe scarred, and the winds of revolution stirred across the continent.

In this era, Poland found itself in a desperate fight, standing against the ever-expanding Soviet Russia - a force determined to spread communism across the entire world.

The Polish-Bolshevik War erupted - threatening Europe with catastrophic consequences…
