Lets have less " half a trailer filled with more irrelevant Pathe news footage of a bloke putting out a fire in an East End warehouse in 1940" and more actual new screen footage. Its a movie not the History Channel.

A trailer was supposed to be in cinemas this month, the fans can usualy track any trailers in cinemas and they are usualy advertised, any hint of a trailer anywhere? Its a serious question, not a dig, I want to be proved wrong, I want the film back to the way it was before they released anything. So any hint of a trailer....?

One little snag - Britain never had a mighty army! Compared to everyone else it was quite small. Small yes but the best in the world, and even the Amaericans respect that. Nothing compares to British Army training, even the Navy Seals don't hold a candle to the SAS.

The navy was our real power. At the start of WW1 the British Army numbered over 100, 000 wilst France, Germany, Russia etc numbered in the millions. Wiist it was a disciplined force once the machine guns began to make it as common issue in other armies it began to seriously lose out as the face of war changed.

True about the British army,But you could have an army that has the most advanced weapons available and still get your butt kicked! ;D At the time of WOTW, the general military thought all over the advanced nations was that war was to be fought across vast fortifications ie trenches and barbed wire. The British answer to this was that it would take guts and bayonets to brake the resulting deadlock. However, in addition, the machine gun was not seen as an assualt weopon and was not dstributed as much per man as in other continental armies. The brass thought it would encourage soldiers to hide behind them rather than advance. Eventually the british army was the poorest equiped army, at least compared to the french, German and her own commonwealth forces who were semi independant. The army was the most proffesional in the world and the British marksman standards was the best complemented by the enfeild rifle, a nice, light accurate weopon. It was this that stopped the german army in Belguim, but at the cost of the BEF.
