Made of roughly equal parts ''Syndicate'', ''Literature/NineteenEightyFour'', ''Film/RoboCop'', and ''Franchise/StarWars'', the story is as follows: in ''No Remorse'' the Silencer's team is betrayed by the WEC after refusing an order to kill unarmed civilians, identified by their commander as rebels. The rest of his team is killed, so the Silencer betrays them and comes to the aid of the [[LaResistance Global Resistance]], who are trying to remove the WEC from their position of system-wide dominance. The WEC is getting close to tightening their grip further by completing the orbital bombardment platform ''Vigilance'', which would allow them to bombard any point on Earth into rubble on a moment's notice through centralized control of nuclear-armed satellites and would itself remain safe by being a very small target well out of reach of conventional attack.

Naturally, as the first member of the Silencer Corps to ever defect, the Captain is greeted with suspicion, mistrust, and even outright hatred from the Resistance. This cannot be helped by the fact that the Silencer [[HeroicMime never speaks in game]]. Nonetheless, [[OneManArmy he uncomplainingly takes on missions it would normally take a team of Rebel operatives to finish]], with only the equipment he can scrounge off bad guys, buy off an arms dealer, or steal from around the Rebel base and the trademark red armor of the Silencers to do it. (Presumably, the Rebels' quartermaster doesn't trust the Silencer enough to let him requisition stuff.) Complicating matters is a fairly well done subplot concerning a possible traitor in the Silencer's Resistance cell--which the Silencer himself is vocally accused of being on more than one occasion. ''No Remorse'' ends with the destruction of the ''Vigilance'' platform and the Silencer floating away in an escape pod.

Made of roughly equal parts ''Syndicate'', ''Literature/NineteenEightyFour'', ''Film/RoboCop'', and ''Franchise/StarWars'', the story is as follows: In the year 2196, the WEC is a global economic hegemony, ruling the Earth and other colonies in the solar system with an iron fist. At the beginning of ''No Remorse'' the Silencer's team is betrayed by the WEC after refusing an order to kill unarmed civilians, identified by their commander as rebels. The rest of his team is killed, so the Silencer betrays them in turn, joining up with the [[LaResistance Global Resistance]], who are trying to remove the WEC from their position of system-wide dominance.
