Get your name into the game!
Here is a unique opportunity to get your own name added as a soldier featured in Theatre of War!
THEATRE OF WAR features hundreds of different units from six major nations that fought during WW2. The game spans the entire war in Europe, from the early invasions of Poland and France to the fall of the 3rd Reich in 1945.
For 3+ weeks, we will reveal one of the more exotic units (all are historically accurate and present in the game of course) on this webpage and all you need to do is send us an email with your guess of the correct name/type of the vehicle/tank/gun displayed. We will show a different unit each week, and you can email your guess each week, but only one correct "guess" per week will be added to the pool of possible winners. You can guess on previous weeks if you haven’t already, but you can only send one email per contest week (eg, if there are 5 images below, you can only have 5 total guesses sent).
At the completion of the contest, we will draw a number of winners from the pool of correct replies (multiple entries increase your chances of winning!), and the winner(s) will have their names added to the unit database used in the game. This means that there could be a soldier running around in the game with YOUR name on it, e.g. Sgt. Ima Winner, as part of the armed forces.
Week 1: [Oct 16-22] Send your answer to this email.
