Anyone play the demo of this? I've been trying for the past few days to beat it on EASY and still haven't! It's ridiculously hard. Every plan I have seems to work, but there is always some German armor that blasts my last soldiers to hell when I try to blow up the Nerbelwerfer. I can't figure out how to evacuate the colonel in a vehicle before he gets his ass blown up by a rocket, so I try to sneak a guy or two in their base and blow it up with a grenade. Really frustrating.

But I love the game. I love how you can destroy virtually anything and how AT shells go through walls and the little stuff like that.

The demo doesn't give you much control or time to set up; I only played it for a while before losing interest. There's easily enough hardware there to win, but the inventory system is way too slow for the short amount of time you have before the attack starts. Pull your tank back and aim it at the door to the colonels house, hide your dudes with heaps of 'RPG's somewhere and use them to nuke the tiger.

You should probably be aware that this game (even the demo) installs Starforce onto your computer, which has been demonstrated to cause serious problems with some people's computers. There's more information available at http://boycottstarforce.org

I own Soldiers, its fucking difficult... Even on easy its fucking tough to beat.

Thought it does have some cool features it isn't the best game out, but for $50 Aus it was well worth it.

It's fairly easy to hack the demo (the forums have a good guide), it's far more fun when you have fuel or a Panther
