Live the action of six deadly and seminal conflicts in Australia's first 150 years:
The Eureka Stockade - The Gold Miners of Ballarat's valiant stand against Government tyranny. The Siege at Glenrowan - Australia's most infamous outlaw, Ned Kelly, shoots it out with police. The Battle of Cocos Islands - The face-off between HMAS Sydney and SMS Emden would result in the Australian Navy's first victory. The Broken Hill Massacre - A call to jihad in Turkey is the catalyst for the first terrorist act in Australia. The Battle of Surry Hills - A rambunctious American, called 'Arizona' Ryan, saves the day. The Razor Gang Wars - Female criminal czars, Tilly Devine and Kate Leigh, fight a bloody vendetta to control the sleazy underworld of Sydney in the 1920s.
