For the experts here. Would this game even on easy mode be too much to bite off for someone who hasn't much experience in games of this scale? I get frustrated LESS as I age, but my attention span is also LESS as I age :D
My rule for the Grigsby titles is to play the smaller campaigns almost exclusively.
I don't think there's any scenario where I'm going to be able to complete a grand campaign on any of his games.
I've watched a couple of Pewpewchewchew's video tutorials and I think if I just take things slow I'd be ok.
Believing is half the battle O0
Like SirAndrew, i've played a bunch of hours, especially WITE and i've never played the main campaign. With these games you have to enjoy the details, i do, but just don't have the stamina for the campaign. Get the DLC also if you can, which gives you more smaller scenarios.

WitW Operation Torch DLC has some Tunisia scenarios that are very playable without having to take a deep dive into the system. The 19 turn Battle for Tunisia 43 scenario is good fun and a quick play; a great way to learn the game IMHO.
Start with the smaller scenarios and work your way up to the grand one. Each will give you a chance to learn a bit more as you go.

You'd be ok whatever. You're playing against the computer in your own time. There's no judgement. If things go "wrong", you can just start again. I would definitely say go for it - for me the experience of getting into the mechanics of the game was part of the package. Playing a scenario just added to that enjoyment. Having said that, it's an expensive game just to have a look at. Pick it up on a Stem sale and refund if it's not for you.
