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 was just about to make this thread when I saw yours. The game (full version) is a blast and the later missions can kick the player's ass easily if poorly planned. Well worth the purchase price.

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...

Make sure to land a helping hand with your own tank (Bill Willie or something).

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.

Thanks guys...yeah...I also check at Xbox.com, and I read a posting about hte LB and RB thing...that was a major problem, since I didn't know about that.  I'll have to check it out later on today.

Awesome game and very long considering it is an Arcade title. Oh and yes the Howizter field of fire movement a definate essential especially when you start playing Campaign+ the levels get way harder and the Tzar Tank will be a distant memory.

Would be nice is you could actually buy those end of game trophies :)

Is there only an allied campaigne- like everytime or can I play with Germany, too? That would be great.
I liked the demo.
