You should know what I think by now. But for others to see:
Lengh (too short/long?): Fine
Speed (too fast/not fast enough?): Fine
Style (suits the game?): I'm still not entirely sure the techno fits, but it breaks the piece up and theres only 20 seconds of it before it starts blending back again. The rest is fine as a classical military piece.
Clarity (does it sound muffled or clear?/mark out of ten): Fine
Instruments used (mark out of ten): Crap trumpet, but the strings are lovely
Freshness (does it get boring, not enough changes etc/mark out of ten): Varies just enough to keep you interested without sounding a bit odd. Except for the techno jump, which seems out of place at first, but because it blends pretty quickly you don't really notice. It's got decent pacing though, and is broken up with loud and quiet bits, which works pretty well.
Innovative (is it original?/mark out of ten): Well, sounds pretty original to me. Reminds me of a mix of Bill Brown and Klepacki. It's not supposed to be too crazy after all.
Level's (any instrumens too loud int he mix or too low?): Much better now the trumpet has been toned down.
Comments( anything you would like to add):
I've had it in-game, and it works pretty well. I've got it at a level where its noticable but not obtrusive, and it feels about right. Almost like a pre-war thing, makes you think of strong, robust military might. Which is what the USA side is all about.
Overall a good first piece, and I'm happy with it. Bring on the next!

There are two ways of constructing a software design: one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.

AntiSocial hit that one pretty good. I'd say the very beginning of the techno part fits. It kind of reminds me of the random heavy guitar in the original tunes, though there should be a lead in note, not an empty gap between the trumpet and the techno. After the odd snare-like drum hits in during the techno at around 2:25 is where it goes downhill, just stick with what you had at the beginning of that section so it doesn't stray way too far.
Also, just a quick suggestion, make the underlying drum deeper (not the snare). The song needs to have bass in there or else it sounds empty.
