In-Game Description[edit | edit source]

Fushun, or Fuxi, literally "to pacify and guide", hides a dark secret under its surface - a powerful force of black gold is stirring, ready to burst. As the Russo-Japanese war put the city in the hands of the Japanese military, the demand for coal soared, and so did the number of coal mines in Fushun. The Mantetsu, greedy for coals, burrowed pit after pit, deeper and wider, until the pits merged into one, forming a gargantuan abyss - the West Pit, the largest open-pit coal mine in Asia, became the pinnacle of Manchuria's coal industry. Blessed is Fushun, for it is sitting on a massive reservoir of coal and oil. Cursed is Fushun, for it has wiped out many villages in the name of development. While some vanished quietly into oblivion, others were erased from history with wrath, bullets and bayonets. Such a paradox of fortune and misfortune, a mark of wealth and ruin. But all of them reek of blood, the blood that can be traced back to the old locations of Pingdingshan, Lizigou and Qianjinbao.
