The Great War made even GREATER! Some chaps have come up with this horrid little number, wherein you command some Tommies in the trenches. Accurately enough, scores of men are lost before you learn the simplest of lessons, like "stay in the trench". Right. Let's get this nasty business with the Kaiser all sorted, show him wot's wot, and we can all be home in time for Christmas and sticky pudding! Up we go, men! [Taken from the bloody Huns over on their Blue Danube.][Some sort of Prussian Flash-business, I expect.]
  • What was so great about it?
  • hominahominahominahomina PARLAY-VOO, hominahominahominahomina PARLAY-VOO, hominahominahominahomina, hominahominahominahomina, hominahomina PAR-LAY-VOO!!!
  • I couldn't even figure out which buttons you were meant to use. So I fucked it off.
  • I got stuck on the level where snipers are introduced. Made good territorial gains several times, but the morale of my little doods would dwindle and then they'd surrender.
  • The war to end all wars! Fantastic replay value.
  • I tried to boost morale by blowing up my own officers but it didn't work...
  • I'm having a problem with calling in artillery strikes to wipe out the krauts. And morale. I keep telling my boys "but you're winning! Winning!" They just want to go home and sip tea with Mum. That's no bloody way to win a war!
  • How can morale be so low? You're all dead.
  • I'm having a problem with calling in artillery strikes to wipe out the krauts. We're they called "krauts" in WWI? I thought it was more "jerrys" or "les bosche" (or even "the huns"). "kraut" was more of a WWII thing.
  • Tommy went down like a cheap whore before my Prussian soldiers... way too easy that side even though it said it was "hard"
  • We're they called "krauts" in WWI? I have no idea. I'm calling them nastier things playing the game, actually.
  • If I remember my Biggles, it was 'the hun', not 'huns', regardles of numbers.
  • Fritz or Jerry if you're being nice, Hun if you aren't
