Forums - Microsoft - Anyone try Toy Soldiers?

themanwithnoname on 07 March 2010

I just tried out the trial of Toy Soldiers, and quite frankly, it was pretty awesome. Dropping a panzer shell on a tank and killing a whole bunch of infantry in the process is great! Only thing I'm balking at right now is the $15 pricetag. Anyone else gotten this yet? Is it really worth $15?

I liked the demo, but with BFBC2 and FF13 as well as other games I can wait until its is on sale for 800m$.
It will happen eventually.

I've only tried the demo myself but I really liked it. I don't usually play RTS games so it was a little difficult at first but I got the hang of it after a while. I hope to get this when I get MS points.

Didn't realise it was out.
Been looking forward to this.

I'm stuck on the Tsar Tank mission, ne1 know the answer to the question of defeating it? I've upgraded all my freaking cannons and no luck...anyway...a fun game, but $15 might be steep...

I had a bit of a problem on that level, but try this:

Ensure that every possible artillery-enabled area has a level 2 artillery piece on it. The best way to get money for this mission is to use chemical warfare on infantry when they are lumping together near the toy box early on...You can get 20-30x multipliers really quickly.

At any rate, when you have the artillery ready, and the Tsar tank spawns, make sure all guns are targeting them. If a gun is not targeting him, make sure you use LBumper and Rbumper to move the field of fire for the artillery. That was where my big problem was - some times, the tank will move out of the artilleries field of range, and needs re-adjusted.

You should be able to beat him just prior to him getting to the box. At the end, you'll want to make sure that all your artillery is trained directly on him. Not an easy task, but it should be doable.
