About this ebook
“Our sasquatch battalion storms up the time fortress’s left flank, throwing scorpion riders into the abyss along the way. The enemy’s ZTZ-99s roll out in defense, so we send our dragonfly squadron on a bombing run, knocking out several of the tanks and pushing the bulk of the enemy’s defenders back toward the citadel. Naturally, they call in a retaliatory strike from their starfighters. As is usual with these things, the whole situation rapidly degenerates into a shitstorm of blood and guts and firepower. If war is hell, then Time War is a quadruple-scoop of hell with flaming jalapeños on top.” -- Crimson
Eternal warrior Crimson joins demon-borne assassin Orm and the mysterious time traveller known only as “The Professor” in a front-line assault on the citadel of the bitch-goddess Yathmog -- with the fate of the entire multiverse hanging in the balance!

“Time War” is also available as part of The Crimson Collection and in Stalking the Wild Hare. Crimson also appears in Tournament of Death (1). Orm also appears in Tournament of Death 2. The Professor also appears in Time War 2.
