Just saw this.  Looks like engine from Ardennes game ported over and expanded to Russia starting in November of 1941 (game is titled Twilight in the East).  A large number of scenarios of various sizes played at battalion level (I think I saw something that looked like entire front)!  Tons of improvements (or complications depending on your viewpoint) to the engine.

Video is a bit hard to understand at times as it is Vic doing the talking.

I know it's another well worn western front game but really hoped he would do a market garden game next could do some awesome things with that engine on that setting

if we had 24 episodes a season all of these would be fine and fit withing a bigger framework.  this series has 10 per season so its quite literally Star Trek espresso.  go to any season of TOS and pick the most unhinged episodes and this is what ya get. 
its entertained, its fun and theres no reason to take it so verbatim.
I also get, and know from experience, that budgets are a thing.  season 4 and 5 were filmed back to back.  season 5 is supposed to be the "transition".
no, not that kind jh, plot work... put the rifles away.
which leads me to think that season 5, despite its 8 episode run, will be a thing.

its onion soup.
you hate onions.  can't stand them and thats fine.  but you got invited to someone's dinner party and they love onion soup and thats all on the menu.  you cant just drink the broth and eat the cheese and be fine.  soup soaked bread..... your fat fuck middle aged gut loves THAT!  soup soaked break with melted cheese..........
some of you may have had a moment there.

point being, dont be a nit picky bitch.  enjoy what you have, be vocal to change direction and if you cant do either just stfu.

It's worth it on a discount in it's current state.  Campaign playthrough is fun now that they added the AI fire team.  Only thing I wish it had was 2 person coop where each of us had an AI fire team to make a full squad.

Thanks for the heads up.  Just started my 5th playthrough.  I can only get so far before realizing I've messed things up and then decide to start over.  Quite the relearning curve.

Story of my life!  The problem I usually face is that I tend to be reactive rather than proactive on 90% of operational matters. In other words, I don't build a salvage vessel until one is actually needed. I don't build fuel harvesters until they are needed. I don't build military vessels until...well...someone is actually attacking my merchants. By then, it is usually too late and I end up starting over. Each time, I learn to plan ahead, but there is always some problem or dilemma that crops up that I didn't think of.

Reminds me of Covid. I had a $hit ton of ammo, non-perishable food, water and medical supplies. But toilet paper...whoever thought we'd run out of toilet paper? I bought a bidet to solve this problem, but now I know for next time. But I digress.

skill issue
