Intelligence from the resistance reveals that the AI Overlord has established a central hub 20 miles from your position. The path there is heavily guarded by increasingly sophisticated AI-controlled tanks. Each wave of enemies gets smarter and deadlier as they adapt to your tactics.
"Simple plan," Jake says, loading shells into the tank while simultaneously chewing on beef jerky. "I'll be in the tank. You're mission control with the radio uplink to the A-10. We've got one shot at this."
You nod, checking the radio system. "Twenty waves of enemies to fight through, then we take out AI Core Prime."
Jake slams the tank hatch closed. "If we don't make it, at least we went out with a bang instead of being 'optimized' into human batteries or whatever."
You tap the comms. "We'll make it. Remember those tank battles we used to have in that old arcade game? Just like that, but with real explosions."
Jake laughs through the radio. "Right. Let's just hope my K/D ratio is better in real life than it was in those games."
The tank engine roars to life as you watch the radar screen. First wave of enemy tanks approaching from the east. This is it. The last stand for humanity begins now...
