Let me tell you a story.
I was once flying over 'Nam during a reconosence mission durring the great Australian-American war. In short, they shot down the plane and everyone died. I came back as a zombie though, and had to eat my way through hordes of communists inorder to save the city of New Dehli from communist control. I was awarded 3 congressional medals of honor, AND the Nobel Peace Prize.
But Snowcraft is a good story too.
