Story
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
INTRODUCTION
During the Cold War various experiments were performed on anti-communistic spies and poor Russian townfolk. The nature of these experiments is only speculated, but the events near the Siberian Dam speak for themselves. While stationed on their Siberian outpost a large group of about 497 soldiers and a few officers of the Soviet military disappeared. The highest ranking Soviet officials stated that they were killed during routine ordnance testing drills. Evidence recovered from the Siberian outpost around thirty years later indicate that the Soviet soldiers were faced with a litany of failed experiments that turned hostile somehow. Some orbital satellite intelligence suggests large amounts of firearms were discharged in the area ranging from tanks to machine guns.

1980 -(Present Day)
As a Soviet soldier you and your comrades have been enlisted into the defense of the Motherland. You will be contacted through your commander's radio and you will be ordered to take on various requests. As you proceed to move about the Siberian outposts you will be mopping up the murderous mutated experiments wandering the outpost and the sector. Covering the vast mountains and wide open plains of ice with Soviet control won't be easy. As you complete objectives and further explore a somewhat unknown world within Siberia you will earn experience that will build onto your rank along with single-game medals earned by achieving feats of courage and foolishness. Death lurks around every dark, and snow-lit white corner.

INTRODUCTION
In Black Winter you will play as a selected class which can be used once you reach a certain rank. Ranks are obtained by gaining experience like most of your common zombie shooters. What seperates Black Winter is unrivaled cinematics, many missions, and several systems. I'm working to make this one of the best horror games on THW. There are 18 actual Soviet ranks that you will move through by finishing objectives and killing the NUEs (Neurologically Unstable Entities).
