Anyone know when snipers start showing up? I think I just realized that they are the ones taking out my units starting around the 40th wave.....

Things this game desperately needs.
-Mute Button
-Hotkey for Taunt
-A Ctrl-Click to select more than 1 person
-Lower quality for less lag
... Other than those problems I'm stuck playing this game for the rest of my life. >.> 4/5 till those things get added as an update.

@ levid: u can counter an airstrike with air superiority wich clears the sky for 60 seconds need officer an sig. Taunting the germans does add a tactical point

Great game, but I'd like to see 1) a way to cancel selecting a troop (for example by pressing escape), 2) a counter to arty other than bunkers, 3) less lag, but that's probably not realistic, 4) taunting the germans should add a tactical point...it'd greatly speed up the pace. Love the awards, love the balance, I even love the randomness, it adds to the replay value. Good job.

Can't the symbols be placed outside the screen? I wanted to concentrate fire on a bazooka next to the surrender icon...guess what happened? grr

I fully agree with Im_Cheating. Even if the game is random based, you mostly have the possibility to react. Arround wave 40 nearly all my men were killed by arty and i managed to get over wave 60 after that.

Im_Cheating, since there is no defence against a precise arty strike, this DOES depend on luck, as well as the behavior of a zooker that shoots your tanks, bunkers and troops instead of the enemy, even with an officer nearby. Still, you really need to think what you should do with your troops, or else you would go dead very quickly. But I just can't stand a 100exp enemy sniper somewhere that keeps kicking the life of my best soldiers, while my sniper just gets wrecked by an arty just because he was aiming for too long into an already flying eye of an enemy. Luckily my tank blasts a shell at an enemy regular and hit the sniper with shrapnels.

I try to keep 4 or 5 units on the screen: signalman in a trench with a bar (gets him to high experience for fast airstrikes), an officer (hidden in back of bunker or behind a rock, a sniper (for enemy snipers), and a tank / jeep / bunker with frenchies in upper half of screen to draw fire. Call air support when enemy airstrikes happen, and call arty when enemy tanks show up. Use heroism on any soldier exposed to enemy fire. This strat got me past 90 waves.

today is a flying day or what???? I had about 5 airstrikes and 3 bombardments in 2 min interval - in two games by now

first of all, I love this game, highly addicting. I was just playing with my best deployment yet. I got to wave 75, had 3 bunkers fully stocked when it said incoming air. I had a signaller, an officer, radar station, and radio tower. I called teh air command to stop incoming air strike. I got hit with a huge wave of bombs. It destroyed a bunker and both my tanks. then I got hit again.

Guys you people on about the game being lucked based. It is partly, it is realistic. I'm a soldier and i know that you cannot anticipate what the enemy are gonna do, or choose where they are gonna be, or how many. Just like this game, in theory you can get a tank on level 1, very slim chance, but it is possible, that is why it takes true skill to play it effectively, as you should be able to view the first ground you are given, plant your soldiers to use the ground to the best of it's capabilities and deploy your men to counter anything the enemy can come up with.
The idea is to have defences against everything, and to be able to adapt. A very skill based game, but the skill is in the ability to respond to the randomness.
4/5 is my rating. And the next person who says it is purely luck based will be slapped.

This game is both good and rubbish! bunkers protect you from arty? mine just blew up and killed everyone in it on wave 5??? clear skies? lasted for about 10 seconds before a plane flew over and dropped about 20 soldiers off.
the whole game is just random, it's a shame because without the bugs, this game would be one of the best.

Nice, when you get crates, you get xp and some bonus, when germans get crates, its a new wave with NO tp gained, I love this game, and randomness...

Oh the horror! Lol, wave #34 and I was hit by a tank accompanied by a ton of other troops and as if that wasn't enough, at least 30 soldiers dropped from the sky, I couldn't see anything but parachutes :(. I was destroyed. DESTROYED.
Sometimes the randomness of this game makes it fun, other times, it makes me want to attack my computer >:o

The joys of spe ops. I had 2 jeeps and behind them I had a trench with 2 spec ops in it, and one of the spe ops guys hit the jeeps, EVERY FREAKIN TIME HE THREW A GRENADE!!!! WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I dont know what just happened....but I was reading the comments, no germans had passed my lines and I heard no bombs....but somehow I was overrun with a bunker full of troops. glitch??

Found a weird bug/error
The germans were coming down to my side and one of them grabbed a crate, when this happened, they all respawned at the top of the screen in a line.
Nice to have a second chance at hitting them but this isn't 2525 with teleporters :P

It's funny how all your best soldiers almost never get killed by bullets. It's always a grenade, artillery or they get shot to pieces or blown up by a plane. Also, how the hell did I get a gunner with a rifle of 5? That needs fixing. Also, during the game, the germans dropped 12 paratroopers, they killed my medic and standard soldier, I killed two of them and then they magically disappeared after I had wasted 18 points (saving up fo an AAA) on a jeep, spec ops and a soldier to stay alive.

I love this game even though there is a lot of bugs and usability issues like text and buttons getting in the way of the action. 5/5

The way kong also calculates waves is different from the game itself; if you collect crates reducing the amount of germans then you get lower waves from kong but the game can accurately keep track. Also the larger your army the more they bomb you; a smaller more elite unit generally works better

All the top 25 all time score slots for both "score" and "kills" are taken up by hackers/cheaters.The top 12 all time for "waves survived" are also taken up by hackers/cheaters.Pleas clean the score boards again.
One wonders what having the score boards at all is for if it is only for people who choose to cheat some how.These people should not only have thier scores removed,thier Kong accounts should be wiped and they should be site banned.Please clean the score boards...again.

finally got 100 waves out... oof, that was hard, and I start to really hate arties, they tend to wreck my bunkers with awestriking precision. Got 3 bunkers ruined in a row, all time with sigs, but finally lost when they killed my best elite spec ops, which had something like 400 kills all by himself. The other worthy troops got killed by the very first bunker hit, that's too random I believe.
