Editing A Flash of Weird (section)

== Scenario ==

August 8, 1916

You are part of a multi-national Allied unit that specializes, and has experience in, the weird things that have been occurring here and there during the war. When someone screams and insists they saw something horrible or strange, you know that there's a possibility they're telling the truth.

Russian command and forces on the eastern front have been particularly perturbed by the supernatural things they've seen during the course of the war. A particular Russian general, Brusilov, was even documented to use supernatural means in a June offensive on the Eastern Front a couple months earlier, causing much discontent and laying the supernatural more bare.

It's another Russian general that has sent you to Romania to investigate a weird fog that has settled in a forested valley in the Carpathian Mountains. There, nestled in the mountains itself, is a mysterious castle whose history has been lost to time. The fog is thickest near the castle itself, and in the tiny forest villages and guard towers scattered throughout the valley there have been reports of attacks by mysterious assailants. Some villages have gone silent, and those who have gotten a hint of the attackers report them wearing vaguely Roman-esque style helmets, the ones with the red crests arching along the top, while they fire from the concealment of the primeval trees.
