The year is 1939. The Communist Russians seek to establish their order in the newly occupied lands of Western Ukraine. The Communist Russia occupies Western Ukraine in 1939, after Communist Russians and Nazi Germans brutally divided Europe in accordance with the secret protocol of The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. The only real force opposing Russian re-occupation of Ukraine is the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UIA). UIA guerrilla fighters seek to oppose Russian re-occupation and fiercely fight oppressors to regain Ukrainian Independence. Local Ukrainian population support the fighter's strife for independence as much as they can, and for this the Russian occupiers and their henchmen brutally suppress the Ukrainian people, starting mass killings and deportation of Ukrainian families to Siberia. UIA soldiers try to prevent this, but the forces are too unequal - Insurgents can only take revenge and carry out a merciless vendetta against the Russian oppressors.
