March of the Legion

Product DescriptionIn the era of total galactic war, can one squad really make a difference? On a hostile planet, Legion trooper Thinker and his comrades of Squad Beta are ordered to assault the invading encampment of alien Omins. But the moment they are dropped into the atmosphere of Andrion 3, little goes as planned. Only months out of training, Beta find themselves marooned on a world of smoke, ash, and lava, facing giant exosegs, and an enemy who attacks their very minds. The fate of ConFree, perhaps the whole of mankind, lies in their hands. To survive all they need do is destroy the Omni menace. The only problem---no one has ever defeated the Omnis.
