I wish there was a way to skip the opening text. I go the crash my first time because I didn't know how to place the troops and died fairly quickly. Wouldn't have been as annoying if you could skip the opening text.
But once I got through again it was fun. Fairly easy and I ended up with a full wall of soldiers. The way you pulled off perspective is really well done. At first I thought things were falling but as more of the bodies stayed on the field it all clicked and I had a great "Ah ha" moment. Well done.
