Last level. Struggling a bit at first, but eventually take out 3 tanks, I take the first trench on the enemy side. I'm in a great position, so I send in defensive units, and prepare to take the last trench and win, and then "Your morale is depleted, your troops surrendered!" .....I'm done.

You know what'd be great? If I had any control whatsoever over the game. 1 path, soldiers don't listen they just move forward when a trench is full, and it's basically pure rng on how a battle vs entrenched turns out even uses stuff supposedly good against it. I watched 4 assault teams die to 3 normal riflemen because their guns apparently do nothing and they kept throwing grenades into the wrong spot. 2/5, the game is basically pointless to play.

I liked the 1944 versoin of the game, but this is not soo good. First, you have to choose the britons.. Than on first try on every level the enemy has very high mortar accuracy, sometimes killing 2 units in a trench wounding the third, while you can kill noone with your mortar. The red cross is much smaller than your hit area. If you try the same level next time, it goes normal.

I'm very surprised to notice that this over-a-decade favourite of mine was voice-acted by the magnificent late John "TotalBiscuit" Bain. Rest in Peace, friend.

I got the 3 easy badges in 17 minutes. Very nice! I had a little trouble in the second battle, but then I just used the first troop type because they are faster and I won. In the third battle I used machine guns in the trench and locked the trench, so they don't run away.

Right, so I've deployed 10 squads and lost 2. They deployed 6 squads and lost 4. I killed 44 of them, they killed 12 of mine. I occupied the entire battlefield and both trenches and then lost because morale was low and my guys decided to surrender. Goodbye.

If you can't get the "Crossing the Line" Badge in normal gameplay,you can play a custom battle. Set difficulty to easy,enable tank and riflemen,enable"anti-tank" for fire support and set map length to short(or whatever you like). Put some riflemen in a trench and wait until tank is available. Then put a tank and see the tank roll to the end. When the Germans put a tank,use anti-tank. Hope this helps!

Also developer made a wrong name for the game 'cause it's 2019, not 1917. Please press +++++ so the developer will see it and know.

flash'd all their sabres bare
flash'd as they turn'd in air
sabring the gunners there
charging an army, while
all the world wonder'd
plunged in the battery smoke
right thro' the line they broke
Cossack and Russian
reel'd from the sabre-stroke
shatter'd and sunder'd
then they rode back, but not
not the six hundred
cannon to the right of them
cannon to the left of them
cannon behind them
volley'd and thunder'd
storm'd at with shot and shell
while horse and hero fell,
they that had fought so well
came thro' the jaws of death
back through the mouth of hell,
all that was left of them,
left of six hundred
When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wonder'd.
Honour the charge they made!
Honour the light brigade, Noble six hundred!

Half a league, half a league,
half a league onward,
all in the valley of death rode the six hundred
'forward the light brigade!
charge for the guns!' he said
into the valley of death
rode the six hundred.
'forward the light brigade!'
was there a man dismay'd?
not tho' the soldier knew
some one had blunder'd:
theirs not to make reply
theirs not to reason why
theirs but to do and die
into the valley of death
rode the six hundred.
cannon to the right of them
cannon to the left of them
cannon in front of them
volley'd and thunder'd
storm'd at with shot and shell
boldly they rode and well
into the jaws of death
into the mouth of hell
rode the six hundred

It says "lead the british or German army through the trenches of Europe" in the description but you can't play as the german army unless you go to armor games

"Sir, there's several mgs on the next trench! We can't take it with such a small group!"
"Ah don't worry, we'll be getting more soon enough..."
*not too long later*
"SURRENDER, WE'VE LOST TOO MANY MEN BECAUSE OF THE MINES!!!"
"Sir with all due respect, but I quit. KILL ME!"
Basically the thought process of these men.

One of the most annoying things about this game is that when you select any sort of fire support, it can't be deselected, so no matter where you click, (i.e. select advancement for troops) it will fire, so you may launch a gas, or artillery barrage on your own trench. It prevents you from creating any more troops. Super annoying.

It's a fine game overall, it was pretty frustrating how if you lose a level you don't get any XP for that level, so if you get stuck it's pretty much impossible to move forward because you can't upgrade. But not too difficult, a fair amount of strategy, and pretty fun overall

I hate those game where you're launch in a mission but like there isn't any pause for tutorial, if you don't rush click everywhere, you're just screwed because you can't do anything lol.

The Last stand is so buggy, my riflemen don't set off the mines but my tank Does?
You really need to optimize this game

Takeaway lesson: Continuously breaking the Geneva protocol is beneficial and has no repercussions. Don't worry, you're still the good guys.

here s a quick key for completing these 3 easy badges: first start a new campaign and apply 3 riflemen teams. the enemy s morale will go zero and you will get it. also you can do the 100 kills with this strategy, for other badge just spam riflemen in a new campaign again. it takes 1 m
