FOREWORD

This field manual is intended to instruct ISDF soldiersand commanding officers about the usage of weapons and vehicles.Furthermore, this manual will give vital information about thearena of combat and the alien enemies we face.

ISDF command has provided current intelligence aboutthe capabilities of our foes. Due to the covert nature of this operationand the unusual nature of the enemy, information is vital to our success. Allfield personnel are expected to be thoroughly aware of the following data.

SAFETY SUMMARY

All field personnel shall follow allregular safety guidelines for combat situations. In addition, the followingsafety procedures are implemented:
Be prepared for an enemy to changeits threat capabilities mid-conflict. Recent intelligence has shown thatsome enemy soldiers have morphing abilities.

Early conflicts by first-line battalions have shownthat the enemy has an unusual amount of intelligence about ISDF capabilitiesand battle strategies. Strategic planning in unusual directions may aidin fighting these enemies. Additionally, we cannot allow the enemy to gainany more secure information. All soldiers in this conflict must be preparedto die before revealing any intelligence.

TRANSCRIPT A0021:

General Braddock’s addressat Round Rock, Titan

To the first class of ISDF recruits:

'Welcome, men and women of the firstfleet! You may now proudly consider yourself members of the most powerfulfighting force in the world. We are the first line of defense from alieninvaders, and our directive is the most important one imaginable—no lessthan the very salvation of the human race.
Look around you—you will find yourselfsurrounded by recruits from the most elite forces in the world. We havebeen watching you—all of you—for years, using the utmost calculated carein recruitment. Our satellite technologies are pointed at military trainingfacilities all over the world, watching, observing, and each of you hasdone something to distinguish yourself from the pack. Each of you bearsthe indelible mark of an ISDF soldier. You should all feel an enormoussense of pride in that distinction. But it’s an honor you’ll have to earnagain and again every single day on the battlefield.

Collectively, you have been trained in every fieldimaginable—guerrilla warfare, terrorist tactics, interrogation, stealthattack, intelligence reconnaissance, scientific innovation, global strategy,and astrophysics. We’ll need all of these skills to accomplish our mission—protectingthe human way of life and the resources of our solar system.

It’s a noble calling, but one that must be performedunder cloak of secrecy, in the dark of night. For the people back on Earth—thoseyou left behind—cannot feel safe until they are free from the very worryof alien terrorism, cleansed of even the thought of that threat. It isour job to be the invisible guard at the door, the noble soldier that stopsthe enemy at the gate, letting the masses sleep in peace. They may neverknow we’re here; we may never get their thanks, but they could not survivewithout us.

Though each of you once pledged loyalty to an individualnation, the only loyalty that matters now is to this organization, theISDF, and to me as its leader. We rise above the world’s petty politicsand form a greater good in the name of the human race. While bureaucratson Earth debate the future in their congresses and their parliaments, uphere, we are prepared to do something about it.

Here, you’ll be expected to go above and beyondwhat has ever been asked of you before: better targeting, smarter tactics,stronger stamina, greater bravery, higher honor, more raw power. From thelowest grunt to the highest officer, each member of the ISDF must be tireless,unflinching, loyal, and willing to inflict the most brutal of attacks inthe name of the cause.
Any enemy we face should be regardedas a threat to your life and the future of your planet. They deserve, andwill receive, no mercy. Aliens will not rest until they have conquered,showing no emotion, no compassion, no weakness or fear, and we, too, mustfight to the death. For if we fail, there will be no future generationsto eulogize us, no one to learn from our mistakes. To put it simply, ifwe fail, then that is the end of us all. That is the end of the human race.So let us make history together!'

The Battle at Long Ravine, Titan

In early July, 1979, the ISDF beganwhat eventually would be known as the Battle at Long Ravine. The key tothis offensive was Hammer Valley, on Titan, which the Furies then held.If Hammer Valley was captured, numerous Fury units would be hopelesslycut off.

One of the key routes for the Fury retreat was viaLong Ravine, which ran behind a series of low ridges and then into HammerValley. On July 5th, the much overworked and undermanned Fury 1st Divisionwas overwhelmed by elements of the ISDF Gold Squad in Wolverine rockettanks. The Fury survivors took to their heels and attempted to patch togethera defense along the last line of ridges overlooking the vital escape routeto Hammer Valley.

The ISDF, refusing to back down and accept thissmall victory, headed out towards a key series of ridges that overlookedthe Fury lines of communication in the sector and laced them with proximitymines to try to break up the Fury forces. Hurriedly, Fury units convergedin an attempt to patch up the line and hold the ridges along Long Ravine,which was the key to the Fury defense of Hammer Valley.

The Furies briefly held against the ISDF onslaught,but there were too many Wolverines and not enough Furies. Gradually, oneridge after another was cleared by the ISDF Gold Squad, led by CommanderHenry Manson, using a combination of Shadower and Hornet missiles. Theremaining Fury mobile forces darted here and there in an attempt to stabilizeone another on the ridges, but their efforts were counteracted by the aggressivestrength of the ISDF. By July 6th, both the ridges and the ravine werein ISDF hands. On July 7th, the ISDF entered Hammer Valley, the formerstronghold of the Fury Group Center, now littered with dead Fury hulls.

The following is a transcription and formal reportof the battle on July 5th, detailing the transmission between CommanderHenry Manson and Lieutenant Patrick Flannery as recorded by their Wolverine’sblack box.

Flannery: We’ve got them, Commander!

Manson: It’s not over yet, soldier!Move that heap up to C ridge and start firing! We can’t let ‘em get toHammer Valley.

Flannery: Backup’s just acrossthe ravine. Blue squad’s on its way.

Manson: Then let’s clear thefield for them!

Flannery: Roger that.

Manson: I’ll cover you. Justkeep moving! Go! Go!

ISDF: A Secret History

Everything you’ve been told about the last 50 yearsis wrong. When the media looks back on this century, dividing it up, parsingit down to the top 10 or top 100 most important events, they’ll be missingthe real moments that changed history. For the men that really shaped thefuture worked behind closed doors, cloaked in secrecy, hidden with rusesabout wars that never happened. Thousands of soldiers whose disappearanceswere written off as accidental or explained, actually died for their country,for their world, in a battle that no monument will ever commemorate. Itall started in 1952, when a meteor fell from the sky. This was no ordinarydebris from some distant star, this was Bio-metal. It’s impossible to describethe substance if you’ve never seen it—and it can’t be classified underany periodic table. It’s metal, yes, but it’s alive. It thinks, it remembers.It changes shape before your eyes. It has a soul. Both U.S. and Sovietscientists studied Bio-metal diligently through the 1950s. Of course, theirfirst thoughts immediately turned to how to use it in battle. This remarkablesubstance became a weapon; one that would change the face of war forever.So the world entered the age of Bio-Metal, though only a handful of peopleknew. This discovery would advance science and technology at a faster ratethan the world had ever experienced before. But first we needed more ofit. Lots more.

The tensions already existed—they calledit the Cold War. But this war became Hot, and moved into space withoutanyone ever knowing. The United States formed a secret organization, theNational Space Defense Force (NSDF), under the auspices of NASA. The Sovietsresponded with the Cosmo-Colonist Army (CCA), and a war was on. The raceinto space became about much more than simply planting a flag on the moon.It became about finding more of the Bio-Metal, finding that elusive sourcethat was sure to be out there in the solar system.

Each new deposit of Bio-metal that wasdiscovered fueled the fire, providing more spacecraft and more weaponsfor both the NSDF and the CCA to continue the war in space. One by one,planets and their satellites fell to one side or the other, each a pawnin the war.

While the raging battle took its tollon both American and Soviet forces, scientific experiments conducted withBio-metal continued back on Earth. The most astounding of these were conductedby Commander Armond Braddock, a brilliant MIT scientist whose skills hadbeen co-opted by the NSDF.

Braddock took the dramatic step of combiningBio-metal with human flesh, using human scientific subjects in a kind ofexperiment that’s never been attempted before. The confidential files calledit 'Project Pedigree.' Braddock was given unprecedented access to fundsand men, operating under the directive to deliver to the NSDF a 'SuperSoldier' that could tear through troops with an unparalleled fierceness,thereby bringing a swift end to the war.

For the final stage of Project Pedigree,Braddock brought in the Black Dogs, a crack NSDF squadron. The Black Dogswere the best of the best already, the finest physical specimens trainedto the maximum capacity of their ability. Braddock took these men and literallyfused them into Bio-metal ships, creating a half-man, half-machine force.

It’s amazing the Black Dogs even survivedthis process, let alone maintained the strength to return to battle andfight. This new Squadron, now called the Furies, exceeded every expectationand became the decisive force in the war, ripping the Soviet soldiers toshreds on Europa.

It’s not exactly clear what went wrongat this point, but apparently the unpredictability of the alien technologyreared its ugly head. Instead of following the battle plan, the Furiesstarted using their super-human abilities to rebel against the man whomade these abilities possible—Braddock.

The Furies destroyed Braddock’s laband eliminated the Bio-metal plants that made further experimentation possible.To retaliate, Braddock brought the NSDF and the CCA together under thebanner of one cause—defeating the now out-of-control Furies and drivingthem off the planet.

The NSDF and CCA helped push this newenemy back, sending the Furies into the farthest reaches of the solar system.They dissappeared and were believed destroyed. Braddock was heralded asa war hero.

Riding on the wave of his success andhis new promotion to General, Braddock spearheaded the creation of theInternational Space Defense Force (ISDF). The ISDF combined the NSDF andCCA together, crossing national lines to prepare for any potential alienthreat to Earth.

In conjunction with the ISDF, the Allianceof Awakened Nations (AAN) was created to deal with the problems of theexistence of Bio-metal in modern society—mainly, distribution of the scarceresource among all of the various nations that now wanted to get theirhands on it. The AAN chose a regulated allocation method, which eventuallydistributed Bio-metal to all member nations in due time.

Meanwhile, outside the purview of theAAN, Braddock had been secretly funneling ISDF funds in order to builda base on Pluto. The purpose of that base is still known only to Braddockand his right hand man, Major Manson.

Official ISDF operations sent out probes,policing the edges of the solar system. Just recently, official and unofficialworlds collided as the Voyager 2 probe was blown out of the sky, attackedby a fierce, unknown enemy. The attack coincided with a raid on the secretbase on Pluto, and the resulting Mayday call opened Pandora’s box, givingthe rest of the ISDF an opening to discover Braddock’s covert plans andwhere they might lead.

ISDF troops were immediately dispatchedto respond to the distress call on Pluto, steeling themselves under Braddock’scommand to face a force like no other, a mysterious enemy with the powerto wipe humans off of the face of the Earth altogether....
