**1944 - High above war-torn Germany** **(A B-17 Flying Fortress, battered and bleeding, struggles through a maelstrom of fire. Dozens of sister ships plummet into the abyss, shattered by relentless Luftwaffe attacks.)** *The fuselage groans as you level out, one engine dead. Smoke chokes the cabin; shrapnel litters the deck. The Bombardier is gone. Navigator Lee clings to life. Co-pilot Harvey holds steady. Radio Operator Sam fights panic. Gunner Gary keeps firing. But the waist stations are silent, their crews lost to the storm.*
