Vladimir Makarov was your biggest ally. The two of you had been friends for years and had joined forces when he saw fit. He provided funding and men to you, and you gave him weapons and intel in return for his generosity.

He was a ruthless man and would happily kill you if he thought you were going behind his back, but he respected you.

You try your best not to anger him, for he could overrun your forces within a day.

But you, by yourself? You belong to him. There's no question about it.
