Competent playthroughs are sparse. Yours belongs definitively to the best in this genre. /subbed

I like this new format, but what i like the most is YOu making videos on Graviteam games !

[@soldierbreakneck771]

88 are certainly powerful, but they also have a large silhouette, so they are relatively easy to detect, and when detected, they are vulnerable. The Soviets carried out a brilliant attack here, it would have been very difficult to stop such a number of heavy tanks without mines.

[@warci]

love this format. Interspersing the game with historic info is a brilliant idea!

[@zachnar0125]

Yea you look at Steel Divisions graphics and the models are horrible, especially compared to WARNO. Graviteam is IMO better than steel D by a decent ammount.

[@Jajalaatmaar]

Why are the T34's and KV's so accurate, while moving, at 1km+, buttoned down, with only 1 shot at them for a reference of where the 88 was? Seems really annoying that you spring a perfect ambush but the magically stabilized soviet tanks just wipe your gun out after 1-2 shots.

[@Tyr1001]

I'm blown away that the 88's aren't much of a match for a t34 at 1km. The optics (if they were present) on those takes were quite poor, but they're lobbing HE like they have integrated fire control.

Graviteam Tactics: Mius Front has classic written all over it. It`s a battalion simulator with no peer.

[@colinsmith929]

Graviteam tactics really makes you appreciate good sound design... In a bad way.

[@alanshackelford6450]

Condensing should actually help you build a more focused narrative. Your discussion of the logic behind you operational decisions is really helpful.

[@laserprawn]

I hadn't thought about the strategic layer being the definitive one, but you're right - thanks for that insight!

[@edwardsantos5719]

You are awesome! Love your videos. Great historical background and love the way you explain your strategy.Tutorial and campaign rolled into one.

[@Valentaur]

Love the new format. Outstanding job with the commentary!

[@JamesPimlott]

Awesome video, was really educational for the game too, i'm desperate to get in to it and your tips are super helpful, the info around the battles also really adds to it overall, amazing stuff!

[@iGameRecord]

Great content. I like that you explain your methodology, share tips, but also demonstrate the game itself. Keen to purchase this in the future. Thanks for your work!

[@martinrandle5501]

I like this format .The campaign makes more sense and tells a better story . the last battle you showed was great it was a bit like watching a cross between a live action and a documentary.

[@meathead919]

Thank you so much for this video! I love Mius Front and the new DLCs

[@ThisOLmaan]

yeah i can digg the format, and also know that is a lot of work for you, to make these videos I'm sure all who watch really appreciate the entire effort you put into this and we thank you, also if its not to much to mention as you been doing already but if you can please keep mentioning ur play short cut detail and what it means it really helps a lot.

[@jimcastor3214]

Now that was a battle, we need more like that for sure. You did excellent in presenting this armed conflict. You handled the troops just the way they needed to be. tks again for the video. GOOD JOB

[@SnafuWT]
