The humble British infantryman is being increasingly supplanted by the Automated Infantrymen. These stolid, code-driven mechanical soldiers can be slow to adapt on the battlefield, but are utterly implacable in advance and resolute in defence.

As the war drags on, the boffins at Bletchley park are churning out ever more sophisticated designs, capable of executing increasingly complex battlefield orders, and wielding equally more complex and heavier weapons, turning the tide against Axis horrors. Such is the rate of advancement of automated research that dedicated automated platoons are now being deployed to the battlefields, devoid of any human presence, and able to carry out prescribed orders entirely independently.
