The skies over your quiet little town are about to get crowded. It's 1917, and enemy bombers have your peaceful corner of the front in their sights. Lucky for the locals, you're the one behind the flak gun, and unlucky for you, your commanding officer has already started rehearsing his victory speech. * Take Aim, Hold the Line * Track incoming bombers, lead your shots, and keep your fellow soldiers alive as wave after wave of enemy aircraft test your reflexes. Every shell counts, every miss has consequences, and the town is counting on you. * A World That Fights Back * Day turns to night, clouds cover the sun, and the weather and time of day are never on your side for long. Adapt your tactics, because the bombers certainly won't wait for clear skies. * One Frontline, Every Player * Your performance doesn't just matter to you, it feeds into a global frontline shared by players everywhere. Hold strong, and the tide turns. Slack off, and you'll feel it. Every shot fired contributes to the bigger picture. * Daily Onslaught * Think you've got what it takes? Take on the Daily Onslaught, a fresh, escalating challenge every day that puts your skills (and your nerves) to the test. * Glory For You. Credit For Him. * Behind it all is your wonderfully self-important commanding officer, narrating your every triumph as though it were entirely his doing. He'll take the medals. You'll take the kills. Grab your gun, keep an eye on the sky, and give 'em something to remember.
