The Black Company has been approached by agents of the Terran Alliance Diplomatic Corps. The main thrust of the Alliance military efforts are in securing the Hevan's Gate system and establishing a beachhead in the next sector. There are still systems within the Sol Sector that have yet to be pacified or occupied. The Ysgard system contains a Bifrost Bridge and could be used as a base of resistance by the Synod or their allies. The Deputy Undersecretary of State for the Terran Alliance has hired the Black Company to supplament the Diplomatic Protection Service in protecting the diplomats sent to negotiate a treaty with the planetary Administrator of Ysgard. The DPS will protect the ambassador directly while the Black Company will be acting as a backup and heavy extraction force in case the ambassador is attacked. The Synod Security Services (SSS) maintain a substantial presence on Ysgard and would go to extreme lengths to kill,capture or compromise the ambassador. The DPS has strongly urged Commander Black to be prepared for any situation. This PDF provides a short campaign of 4 linked scenarios for the FiveCore Skirmish Gaming Evolved and its supplament Five Parsecs from Home. —description from the publisher
