Operation Crimson Hammer!
The first Expansion Mission, Operation Crimson Hammer, has arrived!
Warmaster Seerus is the evil master of munitions within the gremlin's all-powerful Crimson Order. Thought to be the true mastermind behind the Roarmulus Twins and countless other gremlin weapons, he is the Crimson Order’s creator and supplier for their diabolical engines of war.
Recon Knights under the command of Lieutenant Feron recently discovered Seerus’s ‘Grand Arsenal,’ his development center and storage facility for all his weaponry. Now, Feron himself is leading several squads of knights directly into the Grand Arsenal, with the intention of weeding out Seerus and destroying his war machines.
Met with heavy resistance, Feron’s squads require reinforcements and Spiral HQ is sending you in to assist.

All I can say I is. Oh god, here it comes!
So you have to pay with real money?
And you can't sell/trade the rewards?
