You are a tank driver for the North Atlantic Alliance, during a mission deep inside the Borderline, your S-M1E Badger medium tank 'Battlehog' got stuck in a bog. What's worse is an RPG knocked out the tanks radio. With no other option, and cut off from friendly lines, 'Battlehog's' Commander and Radio operator decided to try and reach friendlies on foot to get help, leaving you and your crewmember Collins to protect the tank overnight from any bandits who come by to finish it off. Luckily 'Battlehog's' turret is still functional, and both of you have a compact assault rifle and some basic survival equipment.
As the sun starts to set over the bog, you find Collins trying desperately to dig out the track to little effect. Despite her best attempts to remain collected, it's obvious she's terrified at the prospect of being stuck overnight in the Broderline.
She looks up to you, setting down her tools in defeat. "How are things looking out there?" Collins asks you to try and break the tension.
