While it is primarily a movie, the viewer is occasionally required to perform [[PressXToNotDie Quick-Time Events]], as well as many other story-based choices. For instance, when overcome by a Heavy being healed by many Medics, you can have the Pyro either run at him with his Flamethrower, or Airblast away. If you choose to use the Flamethrower, you'll come to a quick and grisly death and be forced to choose again. If you choose right, however...well, we don't want to spoil too much, do we? There are also many [[{{Gamebooks}} forking story paths for you to choose]]; while none are "right" or "wrong", each one essentially shows you one aspect of the adventure while another is occurring off-screen. For example, you can choose to follow the Soldier's group as they charge on the offensive, or the Pyro's group as they hold down the fort. Both of these choices are "canon", and both have the same conclusion. This is primarily to entice viewers to watch again, so they can see all of the different story paths.

On the battle-worn [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Badlands]], the BLU team is quickly being slaughtered by the Clan Stackers, a group of RED killers with no mercy. It isn't long before all of BLU is slain...all but one: a BLU Pyro, who vows vengeance for his friends. Before long, though, he's spotted, and is forced to flee. Spotting a working BLU Teleporter, he rushes over to it, and barely flees in time. The Clan Stackers prepare to follow him to where the teleport leads, a peaceful Granary run by friendly [=BLUs=]. The Pyro's gonna have some trouble making it out alive; luck is on his side, however, for he will soon find the greatest help from the most unlikeliest people of all...

There's a [[Characters/AGranaryAdventureTheUnderdogStory Character Sheet]], so don't feel shy about filling it up. If you don't, then Meatloaf will clobber you!
!!This machinima provides examples of:
* AFatherToHisMen: BLU Soldier, very much so.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: Once everything blows over, Meatloaf [[spoiler:takes a vacation to 2fort, where he made his first appearance in "A Heavy's 2fort Adventure"]].
* BigBad: The Clan Stackers, with RED Soldier acting as the leader and general main antagonist.
* BrownNote: The Bieber music played by the Mic Spammers causes the listeners pain, before brainwashing them.
** Also counts as a TakeThat toward Justin Bieber.
* CreditsMontage
* CurseCutShort: The Badwater Brigade leader attempts to scream "YOU BASTARD!" to the RED Soldier after he [[spoiler:wipes out his forces with just a few rockets during his charge. The leader ends up eating a rocket before he can finish his sentence]].
* FaceHeelTurn: Aleks, one of the members of Pyro's group, is resurrected and now fights for the Clan Stackers.
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:The ''entire'' BLU Team]] gets hit with this once [[spoiler:BLU Soldier makes his sacrifice]].
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice]]: BLU Soldier [[spoiler:takes a rocket for the group during the final battle]].
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Meatloaf, though even the Jerk part is debatable. He's more brash than he is mean.
* KilledMidSentence: The BLU Engineer that greets the Clan Stackers and [[spoiler:the Badwater Brigade leader]] meet their end in this fashion, both courtesy of the RED Soldier.
* PottyEmergency: [=BLU=] Scout has one in a brief scene at the beginning.
* PuzzleBoss: Aleks the Octo-Heavy and the Mic Spammers took some strategy to put down.
* TakingTheBullet: [[spoiler:The BLU Soldier saves the group from a '''critical rocket''', at the expense of his own life]].
* TheWorfEffect: The Badwater Brigade, despite showcasing their strength alongside BLU Team during the siege on the Clan Stackers Base, [[spoiler:are wiped out not too soon afterwards by the RED Soldier, within mere seconds no less]].
* VileVillainSaccharineShow: The adventure is a lighthearted affair except when the RED Soldier is on screen. Every moment he's on-screen it ends up with someone getting brutally murdered. From Blu Pyro's old team, any subordinates that failed him, [[spoiler: killing the entirety of The Badwater Brigade and even the BLU soldier.]] None of his scenes are even remotely played for laughs.
