19:10 this is a brilliant directorial moment even by Hollywood standarts

This is awesome, a lot of great micro engagements before a climax at the end. Great stuff!

19:08 That T62 reveal is such a great shot. You sir have talent

Outstanding! @18:28 you can see the exact cause of my defeat. Neglected flank security.

I have to say this: Your content is amazing. I first found your Soviet Armor Doctrine “””podcast””” which really piqued my interest. Each of these videos provides such a depth of knowledge and drama that it’s like a short film, in a way. With each play being laid out on the tactical and operational level I find it so interesting to see how it all plays out

Very nicely done. Great editing and storytelling. I playtested the scenario before release and it is always interesting to see how other players approach the same tactical situation. Looking forward to any new videos.

"Russian-speaking trees with RPGs" is my new irrational fear. Thanks for that!

I think this is one of the best CMCW videos I have ever seen.

I'm hella glad this got recommended to me! I love Megalon Jones videos and yours are top notch as well! The way you explained your tactics was really great. It was interesting seeing both sides on how you where countering his every move until Megalon did an unexpected last rush. The editing style with the narration puts the cherry on top along with the music to hype certain parts. It all added to the epicenes of the video :D

Its nice to see a video that captures the game looking as good as its capable of looking. Credit the Autumn foliage! ;-)

“Russian speaking trees armed with rpgs” 😂 loved the video

Freaking awesome! Love the editing, and well played. You all should do a series.

But late to the party but hope you'll see it anyways: Wow, that was amazing, had me glued to the screen the entire way though! This is easily one of the best combat mission videos I've ever seen, especially the ability to tell a story/create a narrative and the pacing were top notch, I felt that I knew exactly what each unit were doing all the way down to the squad level, and that makes me as a watcher feel way more invested in the battle, and you did it without making it feel overburdening or overwhelming, quite a feat! I can't wait to see more of your content, in my opinion this video was *at least* on the level of the combat mission greats like Usually Hapless, Double Vision, and JW, and it's your first video! Incredible! The only piece of advice I could give is to not fall into the trap of feeling like you have to go bigger and bigger for each battle, there are many who have done so and has as a result become overwhelmed by the workload *and* lost the ability to focus in on the units to tell stories as the scope became larger and larger, and I feel that said storytelling was the best part of this video! Thank you for making and sharing this, a subscription and like has never been more well earned!

Nice. At least in defence, soviet vehicles with their crappy CMCW optics can spot something :) Was interesting to watch.

You had me at every moment following the twists and turns. Great video.

Wow this is fantastic! Your quality of story telling and editing are awesome! Visuals were great! I'm glad you enjoyed editing it, because I enjoyed watching it and would love to see more like this. I think this is on par with other great Combat Mission AARs done by the likes of Usually Hapless and Double Vision and Josey Wales. Keep it up!

Oh wow, well done! Pretty cool scenario and gameplay captured in some great cinematics. Definitely up there on the top with other quality CM content creators like Usually Hapless! ^-^

The cinematography was great. Very well done and explained. Looking forward to more videos!. Subscribed.

Awesome video, and great editing. I really enjoyed the shot that follows the AT missile across the map.

there is a new version of HQS, updated to version 5.0 - I highly recommend it! :)

Superb editing and camera work!

I played this mission last week. And was mostly a success. Pushed most to the west of the map, through the forest, heavy with smoke screens.

Awesome job. You do a fantastic job telling the story. On other channels, I can watch people draw way points for an hour and advance the clock one minute in a one hour video. With this channel. I get the key points, key moments and succinct overall battle results. Bravo!

Great video! Very well made!

nice video, was nice to generally see the russian stuff be of use, unlike shock force 2, where the allied stuff is so decimating. subscribed!!

Great video man, really well done. Loved the part at 11:00 with the troops retreating under artillery fire! Great editing and use of sound as well, keep it up.

Good explanations. Reason for action, study of terrain, employment of forces and reasons taken per action are well based and explained. Well done,

nice to see BMP-1 being affective at long range...

Very good video. You really captured the intensity of the situation. I hope that you'll do more. :)

The battle was fun. The editing excellent. 10/10

Brilliant editing and exposition.

Can't wait for more great video! You've earned a sub in a heartbeat

Love those cinematic shots

Mate this is great content. Love the way you get to the point while still telling a story.

Great editting keep up the awesome work

Thank you for the cinematic edit (a nice change from the turn by turn orders and plain replay)

Agree with many of the comments. You have a talented eye for the camera and editing Whisky. The overlays gave a good overview of seeing the overall situation the way you did it. The music was nice touches too. Excellent production!

Damn this must have been a lot of work to edit. It's great though. Thanks!

Fantastic!... the editing and story telling adds so much to this game. The video is probably more exciting than the minute-by-minute grind of the actual play. Well done!

This was a really cool short and sweet round up of that match, enjoyed watching it

Subscribed! This is awesome! I was enthralled the whole time!

Fantastic production

Brilliant work man. One of the best combat mission videos I’ve seen

Outstanding video

Missile hits tree. Americans: The birds are angry today...

Interesting and informative. Excellent battle field automated stimulation. Enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Class A video game 🎮 material.😁😁

Very good presentation. Really enjoyed watching it. Thank you.

Excellent video, this AAR was very well edited and well done. The strategy as well was very well thought out, I honestly don't know how I would push if I was on the other side of this engagement. Also amazing editing and timing on the infantry pushing out from the american artillery, that could've been decisive if they got caught in the barrage

Very good video, really done with love to the game!

Excellent video

Fantastic AAR! The editing and camera angles are all top-notch! This told a great story, and I always appreciate humor in these videos! Please keep them coming! Subscribed!

Great video, very nicely edited the scenes.

Damn. Good job

2:13 "Russian-speaking trees with RPG's" had me laughing

glad to have found your channel! looking forward to seeing more of your content.

Excellent video! Hopefully there will be more. And very good victory.

Very cool AAR, bro! I really enjoyed watching it. Subscribed for more.

Brilliant AAR = love the cinematography style.

Subbed. Love the background story you’ve added

amazing content,well put together please make more combat mission

Great video - exceptional editing and use of music. Are you also using mods? Which ones if so?

Very well done!

The comments like "Russian speaking trees with RPG's" is solid gold!

I would love to see more content like that! I'm going to subscribe, just in case if you upload another PvP :)

Really good video 👍

19:08 is such a great shot!

Well done….

Great video,I learned a lot from this and your other videos of CM.I noticed the missile drops to the ground problem happens 13:18.It happened frequently in my game too. Soviet missile like AT-3,AT-5 on BMPs and AT-7,AT-4 carried by infantry they all have this problem.Does this often happens to you?Is it a bug or a feature that I don't know?

Regarding the BMP you lost in the opening stages, when it comes to deploying mechanized infantry, if you're advancing it's better to deploy BEFORE entering an unknown position than it is to drive INTO the unknown position and then deploy. It allows your dismounts an opportunity to screen the IFV

Nice video. Which more are you using?.

Great stuff. Really demonstrates how the ATGM is the great equaliser in modern warfare. As we are seeing in Ukraine, the tank is no longer the king of the battlefield.

Very cool! was this played in turn-based mode or real time?

"Russian speaking tress with RPG" :D

I see 5 possible approaches to your positions, not just 2

Excellent video! It's a shame that the PBEM+ system is so jank

14:09 definitely a black guy was in that tank saying hell no!

I'm quite late to the party, but do you mind sharing your mods?

Are you on the discord mate?

10:54 #cinematic

Mj all day

Bros beefing with the avengers💀

Why so serious? Another Soviet flag on the Reichstag sounds fantastic.

damn we need more such videos !
