Hello, I am the Renault FT-17 Tank. You probably know by now who made me and when, but if you don’t I’ll review for you. I was made in 1917 and designed by monsieur Jean-Baptiste Estienne. I was made by the French car company Renault. I was driven by a Ally Soldier into the enemy’s line and I was aimed to overwhelm the defenders. Nowadays, you new guys might think of me as one of those games in the arcade. But, if you were on me during the war, it would look a lot more scary and realistic. IN your games, war looks like fun almost, but trust me it isn’t, not at all. Most people I have seen come from war, they have been traumatized, luckily I haven’t or you wouldn’t be hearing any of this. I even saw some of my allies get destroyed right in front of me. I’m lucky to still be here. Even when we weren’t fighting, I saw soldiers get trench foot and die of trench fever. All because of those serbian guys( I’m just kidding.). Also, I just noticed, is this a interview, if it is, get my good side on the camera. But, back to ww1. So, I’ve seen your games and I’ve seen real war a fought in it. If you really want to make war games, make tanks more important and make them more realistic. I wish I didn’t end up on display at a museum, but apparently that is the only way to teach ww1 to you kids. Although, I didn’t Kaizer Wilhelm, I don’t think I would like him. I mean, I’m not like him at all. First of all, the whole point of me is the help defeat Germany and the central powers. Another reason not to like him, is that he made his soldiers destroy some of my best friends( some soldiers, but mostly other Renault Tanks). With all the craziness going on during that war, I will say again you and me are both lucky I made through that. If not well, I wouldn’t be here to teach about ww1. Well, it’s time to sign off, so until next time.
