In 1932, a large migration of Emus swept through Australia. Devouring crops and terrorizing farmers, these flightless birds numbered in the 20,000's. In an attempt to exterminate this enormous flock of birds, the Australians deployed their army to take out the Emus with machine guns. The noise scared the emus into running away, never to be seen again. Other emus attacked the Australians. In the end, the campaign was ineffective, the emus vanished, and it was discovered that emus can take a bullet surprisingly well.

  • In 1932, a large migration of Emus swept through Australia. Devouring crops and terrorizing farmers, these flightless birds numbered in the 20,000's. In an attempt to exterminate this enormous flock of birds, the Australians deployed their army to take out the Emus with machine guns. The noise scared the emus into running away, never to be seen again. Other emus attacked the Australians. In the end, the campaign was ineffective, the emus vanished, and it was discovered that emus can take a bullet surprisingly well. But what if the emu returned? What if they returned to their original strength to occupy their intended territory and seek revenge on Australia?*
  • Emu's begin invading Australian Farm's making food production tumble down, causing an economic crisis and forcing Australia to depend on Imports. Members of the Australian Military are sent in an attempt to cull them, but fail after Emu's Guerrilla Tactics and Night Raids. Corporal Agari, a skilled member of the reserves, is teamed with a Sharpshooter from Sydney named Will Snarkey. At first, they set out to raid a farm occupied by Emu's, but although initially winning, the Emu's fight back and beat them, forcing them to retreat to their 1930 Wolseley Hornet. and escape, leaving Agari to shoot them out the window. Although their mission failed, the Commander see's potential in them, and sends them to a Ravine where Emu's have been spotted in a large group, leaving them to be killed with a Maxim Gun, but the survivors counterattack and after a tough battle, are killed. The Commander commends them for their effort, the best in the War, and informs them that intelligence states that they have found that a Nazi Scientist, Dr. Hugo Schultz, has been using an Experimental Wonder Weapon to control the minds of the Emus. The two are sent to his possible outpost in a farm, but find it to be a trap by faulty intelligence, leading to a deadly fight. They later find that the 'Commander' was Schultz all along, trying to lead them into traps. They ride to his base in their Wolseley Hornet, killing many Emu's on the Way, and then fight through his base, and they defeat his private Emu Army before destroying the Wonder Weapon. Schultz then activates an Emu Mech, a new Wonder Weapon, armed with many weapons, in order to kill the two, but is thwarted and apprehended.
