An evil group of terrorists possess the time machine and taken with them modern weapons and technology to change the course of history by hoping to control future economic, political direction and to rule to the present.
Your troops are essential to completing the mission of destroying the enemy's headquarters (time machine). Vehicles include; anti-aircraft missile carrier targets enemy helicopters, tanks has armed canons and machines guns to tackle enemy mobile units, and demolition team vehicles disguised as ambulance or van are sent last to finish the job. Airborne infantry are wearing parachutes with light fire body armor and automatic machine guns, can occupy barracks and bunkers, while Engineers repair structures.
