These villains are now using Santa's factory and manufacturing capabilities to create death machines to leave under trees and in stockings for children all over the world come Christmas next year. This must not stand!

I have been authorized by Baron Wulfenbach to assemble a team of expenda... err... adventurous souls to venture in and push this alien menace back to from wherever they came. We've also received the blessing of the Queen Victoria of England, who has sent us a shipment of nice hats for all those participating.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to join us on the WEA Gummi-Ente where you shall receive equipment and basic training, and then be air-dropped as close to Santa's workshop as we are able, fight your way past the savage beasts that patrol, find the entrance to the main factory, find the ones responsible for this invasion, and in the spirit of Christmas, destroy them utterly and without mercy!

Come and take part in the event monster-hunters throughout the Steamlands have been talking about as Steelhead, The Charity Way Trading Co., and Wulfenbach Europa bring you a multi-level arena filled with brutal challenges, bonus prizes, and the coveted trophy signifying the holder as the greatest of all the monster-hunters, the Shattenjaeger!!!
