The idea came to me when i was watching that 'Band of brothers' tv programme and its qaulity. Its a bit like 'Saving private Ryan' which also rocks. Incase you hadn't already realised i love historic was like lessons at school on World War 1. About all the trench warfare and all the specific battles like the 'Somme' and 'Verdun'. As you probably already guessed my game is gonna be about World War 1, were you take control of the various commanders such as 'Haig' at the Somme, etc.... The great thing about it will be that you don't have boring step by step instructions that you must follow or you will automatically fail. You make the commands yourself, you are in complete control of what you want your want your men to do. Of course you have your one single instruction to follow and that is to win and beat the enemy forces. There will be many options for you to choose from these will consist of; Set up a huge trench system for the ultimate defence. Or flood the enemy with an unsuspected all out attack totally demolishing the enemy. etc.....
The view points.
When you are the commander, the view is like a 'Command and Conquer' layout with also the same way of fighting, in starting right from your first building to end up with your camp, however unlike 'Command and Conquer' it will be more realistic and keep to the very primative weaponary rather than going off the plot by making silly unrealistic weapons.
Modes.
As well as taking command, you can take control of an ordinary soldier choosing from a fron trench man to a seargeant in the middle of a furocious battle. This mode will be played in first person like 'Perfect Dark', 'Halflife' and 'Medal of honor' which were all very successful.
Level editor.
There is also a level editor where you can make your own level from scratch useing all the hundreds of different options to make your map.

As the scene opens, with just Lady Macbeth and Macbeth in a dark room, Lady Macbeth speaks to him and as she is, she walks around him in a circle with piercing eyes. When he speaks longer pieces of text, he does so in an opposite style as Lady Macbeth. Looking down at the paving stones. The lighting effects should have a spotlight on Macbeth only as he is the centre of attention, the diameter of the beam should widen a little to include Lady Macbeth only when she is speaking her part. Lady Macbeth should speak her pieces with emphasis and clearly and sharply. This is what her character is like. The only time when Macbeth should be strong is when he refuses to go and smear the daggers on the guards.Macbeth should be very disturbed by the phrase, “Sleep no more; Macbeth does murder sleep’.
When Lady Macbeth re-enters the stage, she should do quickly and stealthily, an d Macbeth’s expression she be surprised. Macbeth should read his usually long speeches with the tone of paranoia, and should overly emphasise the quotes and question. He should exaggerate the pauses and commas. This would give the effect of disturbance and a lack of concentration. Lady Macbeth should shout quickly at Macbeth at exclamation marks, to show who is incharge. Whenever Macbeth says the word “I,” as in “I am afraid to think what I have done,” he should do so in an understated tone of voice, as he is a weak character at this point of the play.
“My hands are of your colour,”This is when lady Macbeth shows her first signs of weakness , I would make it clear that not only the auidence knows the sign, but her and Macbeth as well. Afterwards she should try to cover up her mistake and to defend herself against Macbeth by being twice as aggresive as she was before, Lady Macbeth should read her last speech, with speed and constantly speeding up in pace and circling Macbeth faster to build up tension quickly. Then the atmosphere should change to complete silence. The contrast between Lady Macbeth is made clear in tone of voice and body language. When Macbeth questions the knocking’s every other sound after the knocking should alert him.As the scene comes to a close, I would have the sound effect of very loud knocking. Macbeth should show sudden panic, almost about to runaway, the knocking continues and increases the TENSION around Macbeth.
