Read More »Lawrence joined the Army in 1914 and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in October, working in the geographical section of the War Office until he was posted to Cairo, Egypt in December 1914 as a liaison and map officer. He stayed in Cairo for almost two years. Two of his younger brothers were killed while serving in France in 1915. Their deaths affected him deeply and he felt guilty for staying in such a relatively safe, office-based position. However, the start of the Arab Revolt in June 1916 led Lawrence to undertake dangerous missions inside enemy territory in Arabia. Before the war, Britain had maintained a long-standing policy of support for the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East. However, this ended with Turkey's support of Germany in November 1914. Looking to take advantage of the growing Arab nationalism in the area, certain British elements encouraged and supported leading Arabs to revolt against the Ottoman colonial rule. These complex negotiations were still underway when Grand Sherif Hussein, ruler of the Hejaz province (now part of Saudi Arabia), started an uprising with an expectation of British support. This uprising would become the Arab Revolt and it was led by and fought by Sherif Hussein's four sons, Ali, Abdullah, Feisal and Zeid. Lawrence had been dispatched to Arabia to identify which of the sons would be the most successful leader, and so the most use to the British. He was very impressed by Sherif Feisal and was formally assigned to him as an advisor. Lawrence stayed with Feisal for two years and helped him to lead the Arabs north from the Hejaz to Syria. Feisal was advised and influenced by Lawrence and successfully seized the city of Akaba on 6 July 1917. From Akaba, Lawrence went to Cairo and met with the newly arrived General Sir Edmund Allenby, the leader of Britain's Egyptian Expeditionary Force. They agreed that Feisal's Arab forces would be very valuable in supporting Allenby's campaign in Palestine. Feisal's Arab forces separate actions against the Turks did prove very useful to Allenby's forces. They attacked the Turkish lines of communication and sabotaged the railway that led to Palestine, a crucial Turkish supply route. They also cut telephone wires, forcing the Turks to send wireless messages which the British could intercept. By harassing and pinning down thousands of Turkish troops, they prevented them from concentrating against Allenby's advance. Lawrence was involved in many of these activities and at the forefront of many vital victories. He was with the Arab troops that entered Damascus along with Allenby's forces on 1 October 1918.

Read More »Sometimes when you get knocked down your character swears. In the second single player mission there is some frequent swearing so if you don't want your kids to hear that then keep them away from that mission. No dismemberment is present in the game. I would recommend this game to any child over 13 but no younger.
Battlefield V, one of the best shooters I have ever played did not happen to fail even the slightest. The action packed shooter leaves explosions going off everywhere you go and always a gunfight to enjoy, but I should be telling you my thoughts on its age rating. So first up this does not at all exceed an M+17 age rating! It is still, I would say recommended for very mature teens as when shot at, soldiers cry in pain bleeding out very realistically on the ground, blood covering the palm of their hands. Yet it seems really the only blood is them moments when you are bleeding out on the floor which can be quickly skipped. Gunfire is quick and blood is almost unnoticeable. Often when on the floor soldiers will shout out swears in whatever country they come from, whether that is in German, British, American whatever language. Most of the swears are quite little and nothing much but rarely the British will shout “f-cking help me!”. The game modes are very tactical and often require a lot of experience which can put the player off the game but it isn’t worth leaving such a good game! The sex is very slight, just some along the side in story missions but they are very little and hardly noticeable jokes. Young audiences can be exposed to online multiplayer game chat, being able to hear random people online which can be an issue but you can easily switch that off in settings no sweat. The Story and Multiplayer game modes show a lot of great messages proving well that you can win anything if you work as a team and I think this game deserves a 12+ rating!
