TECHNOPOVERTY PLAYS: CONSCRIPT x ERICH MARIA REMARQUE (ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT) - PART 5

SPRINGTIME FOR TOYS! We've escaped WW2 only to be forced into WW1! That's right, we're playing CONSCRIPT while working through the last of THE IRON DREAM, then moving on to Erich Maria Remarque's ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT. --- Dubai is behind us, Germany ahead. Henry ships off to the past with MEDAL OF HONOR (1999) while wrapping up THE FORT BRAGG CARTEL. Next book? NORMAN SPINRAD'S THE IRON DREAM. --- We're shootin' n lootin' across the globe with all our favorite state-sanctioned killers this spring, taking out Post-Modernism once and for all with Solid Snake in METAL GEAR SOLID 2 before moving on to some SPEC OPS: THE LINE, where we go from there depends on mission control.
