The intergalactic barbarian has started establishing himself in this new future. But with a growing reputation comes the need to accomplish more complex feats. The Komran are happy to oblige, though they may not know it. They have taken a valuable Vale-sanctioned mine, trapping all the residents within and forcing them to work night and day. Curiously, the hostage-takers are not searching for the ore within. Fearful that a large scale assault could end in nothing more than a pyrrhic victory, Joe and his new teammates are sent in to deal with the situation in the hopes that they can take care of the menace without a massive casualty report. Can Joe and his team find out what exactly the Komran are looking for on this backwater planet?
