Veteran solo strategy dev Cliffski of Positech Games has delivered us a youtube update, describing some of the influences for his upcoming Gratuitous Space Battles sequel, Gratuitous Tank Battles. This time around it's a tower defence game set in an alternate reality where World War One never ended.

With influences spanning the likes of Plants vs Zombies and Defense Grid from the gaming world, and Blackadder and Dr Who from the British Telly box screens, it sounds like he's drawing from diverse well of interesting sources. He's promising Tigers Tanks with Lasers and other such delights too.

Keep an eye on his blog for future updates.
