THE FIRE IS COMING, AND ITS NAME IS CARRERA!
Carrera has held off his enemies coming by sea from the north, in the
process dealing the naval and amphibious forces of the Zhong Empire a
stinging defeat. Now, though, his adopted country of Balboa is under
assault from the east, from the south, from the west, from the air, and
from space. It's beginning to look like the game is up for Balboa and
Patricio Carrera. But Carrera's been planning this war for fifteen
years. He certainly hopes his enemies think they're winning.
