WINTERHORN: the code name of a small but passionate group of peace and justice activists. On the surface they project innocent, if misguided, zeal, but you know better. Youve dealt with groups like this before, and theres always a dangerous core. Gun-runners. Bomb-makers. People who deserve to be thrown in a dark hole somewhere.

As government agents, your goal is to nudge them into destroying themselves, using every trick in the book black bag jobs, disinformation, spinning up rival front groups, and even escalating to vandalism and violence when necessary. Your mission, with the full force of the government behind you and time running out, is to get WINTERHORNs members fighting like rats in a bucket. They need to fall apart before they can hurt anyone, and the states hands need to stay clean.

They wont know what hit them.
