The world is overcome by the great oil crisis, which is behind the rise in gasoline prices, and terrorists are adding their three cents to the situation. Several attacks on refineries meant that a stronger gun had to be deployed to fight terror. Therefore, a new group of direct actions was created - Task Force TALON.
