How about doing a review of Toy Soldiers arcade game by Signal for Xbox? It’s a very unique twist on the tower defense genre and the graphics really make you feel like you are in someone’s basement in the 1920’s or 30’s when I suppose young boys would have been playing with World War I inspired wind-up toys, etc. The best part is the unusual weapons, such as the A7V “Moving Fortress,” the Tsar tank and the Zeppelin airships. Would love to read Armchair General’s take on this game. How about an article on World War I tanks, weapons, etc.?
These are just suggestions not intended for publication but I would love any feedback.
Thanks
