• Story:
  1939, WWII: After just six weeks of fighting, German fuel reserves are deeply sapped. Hitler is well aware of Germany’s weakness in this area: he does not possess the necessary oil resource. To win the war, he needs to find oil quickly and focuses his attention on the Soviet Socialist Republic of Azerbaijan, part of the Soviet Union. Its capital city, Baku, is the world’s No. 1 oil producer and becomes a prey that Hitler needs to capture as quickly as possible, in order to establish his Reich.
