The first Regiment of Curassiers will ride around in a heroic manner waving their swords about and talking about invading Poland etc, the 2nd Regt are now equipped with steam tanks!


Meanwhile the 1st Regiment of Dragoons have just been re-equipped as torpedo lancers - armed with spar-torpedo lances. They will heroically charge any wheeled or tracked vehicles they see, while other dastardly inventions like the Killer Kan will attempt to saw the legs of British walkers :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Enjoying the game is ALWAYS more important than winning the game.

Look here, good sir! I find it highly improbable that an officer in Her Majesty's (God Bless Her!) Army would speak in such a deplorably low manner, even to a private soldier! Harumph!

Besides all that, ever since I invented the Greyson Patent Vibro-mine - another fine product from XCIV Laboratories - the giant walker has been a threat of the past. Why, merely stepping within a twenty yard radius of a Vibro-mine would spell certain doom for the offending leg, and then the walker topples. The walker topples over, and sets off another detonation, destroying the main portion with ease.

Holes indeed! Harumph!
