Only one fact remained true- the world had seen what could happen if a nuclear device was in the wrong hands, and it's eventual tracing to a terrorist organization by 2017 in the Near East sent the point home. The use of chemical weapons in Grozny in December 2013, and the following terrorist attack which killed a dozen Danish shoppers in Copenhagen, with chemical weapons identified at the scene, suggested that the world had become far more dangerous than many had expected it to be. Conflicts in Syria, Ukraine, Libya, the world over, continued to rage, the fires of Geopolitical struggle continuing, as it had done for centuries before. Yet there was some change to be had. Support on the topic of dealing with a newly growing terrorist threat, one willing to commit devastating attacks with little remorse in particular against massive civilian targets was resounding at the United Nations, and following the destruction of the dangerous TIAF group within eastern Turkey, popularity grew to continue to work against these resurgent terrorist groups, this including Non-Islamist factions. Russian, European, American influences all had a stake in the new world, one of which now could not sever itself apart, but had to bond to keep the peace. The OECD quietly organized a new specialist Task Force, in the shadows, outside of government influence and interference. Unlike Lima, this was an organization drawing from beyond NATO, hand picking specialists in their fields. The very best men and women, to serve and eliminate the threats of this new breed of terrorism. Task Force Echo was born. The year is now 2020, and we now join a new breed of Special Forces warrior. Fighting the wars that you don't see on the nightly news, armed with the gear that still sits on drawing boards, putting fear back into the hearts of those who wish to do terrible things to good people. Oh, and with a fairly healthy dose of being pretty badass, I'd say. A group of operators capable of striking back at the very heart of the matter.
