[@Earthinawarshell]

I'm working on 1942 so stay tuned!

[@akuganteng790]

wheres 1942 one ?

[@KhmerPlaysAndEdits]

It’s been 9 months 😢

[@adendaguy]

Wow this is very well made. Earned a sub

[@eisorama2216]

this is very well done

[@asenvelkov301]

well made man gj, you even took the effort to animate the german's territory plan at the end

[@trenaxy9938]

finland also invaded soviet union with germany

[@crimean.mapper]

very nice and smooth, only problem is axis borders are incorrect a lil question, how do you make the square thingy with the number of encircled troops?

[@crimean.mapper]

i shouted you out in a server im mod in btw ))

[@Earthinawarshell]

Yea there's a square thing above the tools in After Effects and animate it

[@Earthinawarshell]

​Thankks!

[@globanimations788]

Wow nice!

[@Therewillalwaysbearussia]

How do you make islands with the shape layer? Every time i click the shape layer and make a path of an island, it just doesn't color it.

[@Earthinawarshell]

U need to manually draw it to make an island colored

[@timoo2537]

Hey how do you make encirclements ?

[@timoo2537]

Btw very nice video

[@Earthinawarshell]

Turn the shapelayer to multiply And u can make encirclements without border glitch

[@timoo2537]

@@Earthinawarshell For me the Border glitch is still there

[@Earthinawarshell]

If its still there you can skip the encirclement animation and add effect fade in and fade out just like eastory's mapping style to make it look cool. Cut the shape layer first so it will not look messy. Watch my tutorial

​ @earthinanutshell3896 I tried setting the Stroke to multiply and this worked for me, but thanks anyway

[@bee-fs3vb]

Wouldnt really say it was just winter and oil, there were other factors aswell. But overall, great video

[@Earthinawarshell]

Thanks! But for me the main problem was oil making them to wait for their coming supply before operation typhoon and it was too late severe winter comes then barbarossa failed. The other problem was the transportation of the supply.

[@bee-fs3vb]

@earthinanutshell3896 yeah I agree with your third point, it was the logistical issues that was one of the very main reasons for why it failed. Muddy Road due to rain or sabotaged roads/railways caused a lot of supply issues, not to mention the ussr is massive as compared to the front germany fought in France. The winter, although affected German strength and moral by a certain margin, I wouldn't say its effects were nearly as crucial as the supply issues that the germans had. However, we also can't forget the determination of the soviets to keep fighting even after losing battle after battle.

[@Earthinawarshell]

@@bee-fs3vb germany really did a crucial mistake by invading yugoslavia making them to delay the barbarossa operation. For me i would just ask stalin for oils actually they will agree as a former ally of germany hitler should've focus in african campaign to linked up with vichy france (syria), iraq and iran this will make turkey force to join axis. and then after that they can be able occupy baku oil fields with the help of turkey and some forces in africa.

[@Earthinawarshell]

In 1943 the status of german oil was higher compared to 1941 after they completely occupy the oil fields especially the whole caucasus oil fields they can retreat back to their borders and create defensive line if the soviet were meant to counter attack this could make the soviet slowly to collapse as their oil is slowly getting empty and destroyed by axis forces. there're many tanks that were produced by ussr but in alternative way it would be useless as their oil is getting empty and destroyed so probably this could have a big impact for the soviet economy and soviet war machine

[@bee-fs3vb]

@earthinanutshell3896 6 well, one problem for Germany was that (atleast what they believed) was that if they delayed any longer the ussr will just grow stronger. The moment that operation barbarossa happened is when the ussr was still healing from the great purge. If that was to be delayed, it is possible that the ussr would've been stronger than in modern day 1941. Also, the nazi economy and its income also very heavily depended upon plundering other countries/peoples. However, egypt, and especially the suez canal, were very vital. So there can be arguments made for the concentration of resources on the north african campaign. But there were also ideological reasons for barbarossa, such as lebensrum and the extermination of bolsheviks and slavs

[@OmskMapping]

Can you make a tutorial about it?

[@hellfruit5612]

Lack of oil and no winter equipment sounds like the Russians were pinjatas and not hardened soldiers who fought like maniacs with or without armor and airforce. That's what won them the war
