Cannon Fodder
Description
Don't wait till you see the whites of their eyes...
Don't kid yourself it will be over by Christmas...
Don't try to shut out the screams...
And don't forget to wash your hands afterwards...
From a queue of some 360 "eager" conscripts waiting to go to war, a team of up to six will "volunteer" for each new mission. Encourage your soldiers to shoot anything that moves, throw grenades, fire bazookas, drive tanks, fly choppers, split up and do their own thing... and die... Guide your no-hoper's troop straight through deadly missions. And if you lose some of them? There's more where that came from...

- Guide your motley crew over hill n' dale, through jungles, freezing cold wastelands and Africa-hot deserts, annihilating the enemy and blowing up buildings on the way

Retro at it's best!
I still to this day do not understand how a point and click shooting game with tiny little men can become so obsessive. It's awesome. Even to this day with the likes of the PS4 and XBOX One out, there are still classics like Cannon Fodder that modern games won't be able to touch on playability.
