Many people say that this game is stupid because some strong soldier died by a grenate, shot in a bunker, tank, and many other things the maker of this game tried to make it a litle realistic he has done great execpt for the close range you know they dont use knifes or some sort of but it is still a great game because sometimes you have luck and sometimes you dont.. and about strategies.. well every one will find one that fits his tactic. you know some people prefer to build a trechs close to the spawn line and then build sodiers with shotguns effective but weak agains flamers and there are many more strategies to use but you must find your own.. Good luck you need it!
