For a strategy game about toys, this game was surprisingly deep. After a while I felt for every toy soldier that got "killed", both the ones on my team and the enemy ones I machine gunned, gassed, burned, crushed with tanks, and blew literally to pieces with my artillery, their wailing and screams didn’t help either.
Such a sad undertone to this song. The infantry on both sides agreeing that the war is just too inhumane and brutal and thus they all want to just go home to their families, yet the generals on both sides kept pushing and slaughtering millions of men for little to no gain. It really touches my heart.
@@ArtyJerjerrod Germany did not want a war (well at least the Kaiser). The reason why WW1 broke out is beacuse of the rising tensions between the Central powers (Italy, Germany, and Austro-Hungary) and the Entente (France, and Russia). Then once the Archduke died, Franz Joseph I declared war Sebria (for many reason mainly to make sure all the other minorities in AH knew that AH was still in control). With the attack on Sebria, Russia declare war on AH and Germany declared war on Russia, this brought France into the war due to the alliances. Britain eventually got involed only because Germany pushed through Belgium to take out France. This is because German high command knew that Russia would take a while to mobilize, which made France the bigger threat. During all this time Italy was sitting on the side lines to see whole would give them a better deal. Eventually the joined the Entente. But about Germany wanted to expand their empire, in all honesty they did but only in their colonial holdings.
R.I.P Stan LePard bro made the best WW1 songs like he was was actually there, capturing the horrors of playing with the lives of men like they're toys....

POV: You're an Englishman in France shooting at Germans because a Serb Killed an Austrian. Doesn't make any sense you say? Exactly.
Not without context

well, in the game you win.
Generals? How about the politicians? The 'leaders'?
But when war is caused by a side that is evil and Just want domination war is the only option
Germany wanted to expand their empire, if the Entente hadn't fought the war then they would have dominated Europe and done what they did in Belgium.

Anyone from the Toy Soldiers announcement trailer?
YES!
Absolutely

Funnily, Wilhelm II was the cousin to George V of England
I'm pretty sure all the king's of that time were cousins.
Tsar Nicholas II was also they’re cousin through Queen Victoria.
King George and Kaiser WILHELM and tsar nicholas were cousins
@@MichaelLannamann yes that is correct
@@alastosgamingchannel7745 The Tsar and the Kaiser called each other "Willie" and "Nikki".
