Eh... I liked the first one cause it was kind of secluded and a standalonish thing, but now this theme of "a pro army of kids that got trained by combat hardened soldiers" is just well it's silly on a number of fronts.

Ha.

First, any combat hardened soldier who is not insane or has a loose screw wouldn't want kids in the army for the sole reason of combat being hell on earth.

Two, most soldiers are crap soldiers, that's why you become an Aerial Ace after taking down five enemy planes... because of how incredibly hard it is, for example. Highest kill counts for Snipers are in the hundred to two hundred kills for the most part with about a dozen or two exceptions that went into the hundreds of kills.

Third, kids aren't really strong enough to handle weaponry properly. Canons have some heavy machinery and ammo. Gun recoil is powerful as fuck, you could have bruises from shooting a lot. Kids would be flung off their feet trying to shoot a riffle.

It's just not as good as it could be because it's a kid-focused and at this point isn't very Horror oriented either.
