Editing was a bit confusing. The USSR defense parts flowed well, but the lack of summing up the results of the Belgrad defense (entirely possible that it didn't happen during streamed gameplay, that's why there is no footage of it) and not explaining in-video that the Axis had given up was quite jarring. Did no-one in the Axis say "We give up" at the end of the game or what?

[@Bokoen1]

I actually thought I summed up the Belgrade defense pretty well honestly! The French even go "It's been an honor" as our units die in Belgrade. The footage you see in the end is in fact the Axis giving up. I didn't put it in the specific line where they said it, because it would have given the video a bad vibe. Instead I just added us talking about the end of the game essentially.
