Your orders are to remain neutral and try to make it across the country in an armored train, through the Siberian winter, to a city on the far east of the country where a ship purportedly awaits to take the soldiers home. But more pressingly, the soldiers are caught in the middle of a new conflict, the Russian civil war between the Reds and Whites. While the war may be over, there is turmoil and uncertainty back home, as the government is trying to form their new independent republic. It's the end of World War I, and a group of Czechoslovak Legion soldiers find themselves in the middle of Russian territory. The journey in Last Train Home kicks off with a very engaging opening.
