In the year 2027, political tensions between the United States and Russia escalated due to a series of territorial disputes and aggressive actions by Russia in Eastern Europe and the pacific. Diplomatic efforts failed, and by 2028, full-scale military conflict had erupted. The conflict spread rapidly, with battles fought on multiple fronts across Europe and Asia. The marines' mission to capture Sumava is part of a larger operation to push back Russian forces and gain an important logistical hub in the area. Previous attacks on the city confirmed the previous estimates by the intelligence, as Alpha and Bravo companies were repulsed by very strong Russian resistance. Now it is up to Charlie company to make their way into the city. The task is easier now with friendly artillery and air assets denying enemy reinforcements and resupplies. The previous assaults forced Russians to withdraw deeper into the city leaving only a skirmish line in the Railway sector. Eastern bank of Sumava city is tied in combat with US Army elements to the east, therefore it is a non-factor to the marines assault.

The Russian Motorised Forces made a sudden breakthrough in the frontline and capitalised on the situation by capturing Sumava city. While not heavily dug in they are taking cover in the buildings. They are highly motivated and determined to defend every inch of the city, utilizing their knowledge of the urban environment to their advantage. The Russian forces are equipped with a mix of traditional and modern weaponry, and their soldiers are battle-hardened and ready to engage in close-quarters combat.

The primary objective of the USMC is to secure Sumava city by executing a two-phased assault. In the first phase, the USMC will acquire the outer sectors of the city, cutting off all supply lines and escape routes to isolate the enemy forces. In the second phase, the USMC will assault the Old Town, gradually tightening the noose on Russian forces.
