Then Stepano notices something on the Horizon. Then we cut to an image of redcoats and people in late 18th century garb walking onto a saling ship. We cut back to him as he calls for Michele and gets out his binoculars. Another image appears showing an old fashioned globe with lines going from Virginia, the Calorinas and Georgia to Capetown where a red spot begins. There are a few more cuts between Sicily and other images of the past including men with strange flintlock rifles, a timelapse of a strange city growing from the wilderness, weird steampunk cars with smokestacks and airships, a couple shots of a red tide pushing north up through africa and men in chains, as well as Stefano and Michele getting more and more panicked at what they see and run to raise the alarm. We then pull back to see what's coming: a vast fleet of planes including fast fighters and heavy six engine transports which begin to discorge paratroopers over the island.
We then cut back to the Eastern front where a Nazi advance is stopped when another tank crashes through the walls. But it's no KV or T-34. Nor is it a Panzer, nor a Sherman, Churchill or even a Che-Ha. It is however a sizable tank with a formidable gun which one shots a Panzer IV and on it's front is painted this symbol...
And then we cut to a German soldier making a fast retreat who yells out in warning and panic one word...
"DRAKAS!"
This cuts to the title of the series: The Domination. Based on the work of SM Stirling. It's coming out in four months. There's online material including a website with some information on the timeline of the Domination of the Draka as part of it's marketing campaign.
Over which is is played a remix of Depeche Mode's Master and Servant.
What would your response to such a development?
