	The Heritage of the Great War / First World War 1914-1918. Graphic color photos, pictures and music
		Subjects are: the horror of the Great War battlefields, killed soldiers and kid soldiers (boy soldiers) in the First World War, civilians, wounded men, doctors, and the daily life in and behind the trenches of No Man's Land aka Nomansland during the Great War 14-18.
		We also have Great War propaganda posters and postcards and censored, forbidden pictures of corpses, dead and mutilated soldiers, mud and rain and shell holes and trenches, many trenches and entranchments, executions.
		The Great War was in Flanders Fields in Vlaanderen and on the battlefields of the Somme, Verdun, the Chemin des Dames and the Marne.

	World War I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The War was the catalyst for the Bolshevik Russian Revolution, which would inspire later Communist revolutions in countries as diverse as China and Cuba, and would lay the basis for the Cold War standoff between the Communist Soviet Union and the United States.
		On June 28, 1914, Franz Ferdinand, Archduke of Austria and heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, was assassinated in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb student.
		Dissatisfaction with the Russian government's conduct of the war grew despite the success of the June 1916 Brusilov offensive in eastern Galicia against the Austrians, when Russian success was undermined by the reluctance of other generals to commit their forces in support of the victorious sector commander.

	1914: The Great War - PC Windows
		The player takes on the role of an officer of World War I. In two detailed campaigns (either Allies or Germans) with 30 versatile missions in total you will have to fight on different front lines in Western Europe.
		The realistically presented landscape and the more than 60 units from four different nations (Germany, France, Great Britain and the USA) are completely modelled in 3D, copied faithfully and animated with much emphasis on details.
		Another great feature is the multiplayer mode: Here up to four players can prove their strategic skills.

		Wars are primarily about fighting and killing, but it would be a great oversimplification to state that that is all they are about.
		Wars can set about vast changes in society, be switching points in history, can be begetters of social movements and the origin of future problems.
		Essentially, both the conflicts that lay at the origin of the Great War as well as the newly created enmities resulting from the Great War remained unresolved and led to a continuation of the great struggle of nations some 20 years later.

		Greatly expanded (3,000 in 1914 to 23,000 in 1918 including TFNS), they served throughout the war and were present in all theatres.
		It was not part of the army or even under the control of the War Office - it was funded and controlled by the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries - but as an organised body supporting the war effort, it deserves its place in any consideration of the fighting forces.
		The success of the WL was a definite factor in influencing the Government to organise female labour in the latter half of the war.

	GameSpy.com - E3 2002 Coverage
		But somehow World War I, known until the events of World War II as The Great War, seldom is used as the backdrop for gaming (except for the air war, which has been recreated far too often).
		But like the actual war, the game will not be limited to this year and will include a total of 30 missions, where players can choose between playing either as the Allied forces or as the Germans.
		Of course it wouldn't be a great war if this was only a single player game, and the team at TriNodE has strived to make sure that a multiplayer mode is present with up to four players engaging in the war (with two players on each side).

		The Great War is here presented in a 7 disc set, with the complete series on 6 discs and a full disc of extra features.

	The Great War
		It seemed to represent the total nadir of any 'art' of war there might be, while the war memorials in every town or village stood as a permanent reminder of the horrific human cost.
		It was the first war in which all the new weaponry of the later nineteenth century was properly used in practice.
		The Great War was 'the first modern war' not because it saw extensive use of trenches (a technology that had already been well known to Vauban - and even to Julius Caesar), but because it used High Explosives.

	1914 The Great War Review - GamersHell.com
		Only one of the features which makes 1914 unique compared to other turn based strategy titles is that units don’t freeze once they have completed their move.
		Personally I felt that 1914 is missing some small (and bigger) features in gameplay although what might be excusable since the company already lacked money during the final steps of development.
		The fear that a game like 1914 which was finished under financial pressure might be a candidate for a “bug fest” is understandable and as expected it isn’t without flaws.

		At the start of the Great War in 1914, Germany was a relatively young power, only coming into existence following a series of wars in 1871.
		The tripwire that set off the century's first global conflict was Austria's declaration of war against Serbia on July 28, 1914, a month after Archduke Franz Ferdinand (the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne) was assassinated in Sarajevo by a Serbian fanatic.
		A war between Austria and Serbia meant a war between Austria and Russia -- Serbia's traditional ally.

		The GWA strives to keep alive the history of the Great War, and honor those who fought it’s battles, through battle reenactments and educational events.
		In addition to various special events around the country, the GWA owns the Caesar Krauss Great War Memorial Site near Newville, PA. Here, on a 100 acre sight in south-central Pennsylvania, we have authentically recreated a portion of the Western Front as it may have appeared circa 1917-1918.

		Rosenberg was 27 years old when killed in the last year of the war, it was a slow process before he became acknowledged as on of the leading war poets.
		Ironically Rosenberg ketched very little of the war he saw and experienced, most of the sketches were portraits of his comrades which he gave away for them to send home, (COHEN, 1975).
		There are 26 British and commonwealth war poets buried on the Western Front; six of these have 'no known grave', and have their name comemorated on the memorials to the missing, (CWGC, information sheet).
