I think you have an excellent lay out for what could be an excellent story, but this needs a lot of work. One thing you need to do is proofread the story, it was littered with spelling errors that a spell check won't pick up. ("Ambulances and driving to and fro moving the injured to waiting transports." is one, should be ambulance ARE driving). The ending was abrupt, I took the England homeland path, I was happy I took the trench over but that was the end??? The story shouldn't have ended unless the main character dies, is captured, is seriously injured, or the war is won.

I think I rated you a four. There was just so much opportunity for you to properly describe the details of the scenes, on both a physical and emotional level, that I was disappointed in what I read. Please work on this, edit in some details and extend some of the storylines. You have laid out the groundwork for wha

This is another game that I like even better upon repeated play.
In response to the criticism "no tactics" I would say:
This is a game about one individual's experience in war. It's not meant to be a grand strategy game- and it does a good job of immersing the player in the here-and-now of the character.

Linear, and some situations don't let you continue, but still an amazing game!
