Covert Cabal I wouldn’t be surprised if you use this game, it’s predecessor, and armored brigade both as database references and in your own videos. Totally not off topic for your channel. Honestly this game is always in the back of my mind when I watch your content.
This one in particular is very much so worth it. educational and easy to pick up. if you open the “start game” mode and select the “air tutorial” story, it’ll introduce you to the gameplay in a sandbox scenario and slowly introduce the mechanics at your own pace. It’s not a developer tutorial, it’s a community member’s custom tutorial. you’ll also get a sense of what the previous game made you do manually that this one does automatically because the tutorial was made for the previous game. if oyu don’t see the window or options that the tutorial messages suggest, it’s because the new game updated it. it should be reminded that the tutorial is made by a community member and not the game devs. the level of detail is staggering when you consider the windage effects on your missiles, the levels of damage two identical rockets can have on two identical targets can be ever so slightly different. and considering that the game is simulating actual soldiers in their respective roles, with programmed AI like self-preservation and different levels of skill, the game is much more friendly to people who have trouble with RTS games. It doesn’t ‘feel’ like an RTS after a while. It really does feel like you’re watching a graphical representation of actual combat and that’s what really makes it shine!
Owen Major as well as strategic side. Coordination of strategic assets and its tactical affects on an operation, satellite over flights, etc., time between sorties, etc.. it’s an incredible simulation.
@@TheBooklyBreakdown DCS: Digital Combat SImulator, its a Military Aircraft Combat Simulator (game) from developer Eagle Dynamics, unlike Microsoft's Flight Simulator or Xplane, which are more focused toward civil aviation.
Ever since I discovered your videos, OSINT has become my forbidden hobby. I've tagged every single Russian and ex Soviet air Base on Google maps, I learned about the Russian raliway ICBM's, discovered NORAD's bunkers in Canada and discovered as much as I can of this unspoken world. I study Physics, and so my mind has used to be attracted by challenges. This game presents me with such a vast playground of multivariable actions & reaction that my mind asks for it. I'd love to play the game and put myself to the task of carrying out tactics and strategies that test my limits This game would become my addiction!
Damn, this looks really cool. My job has recently started getting more involved with military research some of my friends are involved in the military as well and it would be nice to be able to understand the capabilities of the systems involved. Playing with this could provide some insight into how practical or impractical some of our ideas might be.
Just installed and am playing now. Took a break and saw this. FYI, steam has the game bundled with Tacview for 25% off. And yes, the freaking in game database is epic
This game is one of the greatest simulation-games I’ve ever played. I love this baby. It’s a real ball buster. And it is indeed a simulation to the core.
1. It varies. 6 hours - 3 days is pretty typical, but there's no hard-coded limit. You could make a scenario last several months if you wanted to. 2.The official database is 1946-2035, IIRC, although there are several units from WWII included, as well as some hypothetical units (A-12, F-19, etc).
I have been watching the previous game for a while but never had any friends playing it, and decided not to buy because of that, now all of the sudden it turns out a few friends got the game and some of them have been playing the last one for a while without my knowledge. I'm really on the fence for it because I'm waiting on another game and don't wanna spend that much money on games so I need to decide between the 2. So here I am hoping to get one of your codes. Thank you for the in depth review. Your videos are always very informative, I've been watching every one that came out since I found your channel, keep it up!
Having gone through a significant part of Civil Air Patrol, I'd really enjoy learning about nation level strategy and dealing with issues our leaders face through this.
Dear Cabal, I am a defence technology enthusiast and have been watching your videos for a long time. Being a mechanical engineer working in this area, I claim I have information above average about the field but every time I watch your videos i learn new things and this video is also not an exception. Even though I searched for this kind of a simulation, haven't seen this game before. Thank you for showing this game. I will damn make sure i play it a lot and it would be even better if I can get a code. Have a nice day!
I've never understood how they did all that research into all the different weapons and weapons platforms. That is probably the most amazing thing of this 'game'
This game looks awesome, I already see the dozens of hours I would spend in the database and trying different scenarios from the past in the editor. Strategy games are really my favorites and would definitely enjoy this, I spent hours on wargame red dragon which is less complex than this one, but highly incorporates strategy as well. Also you are one of many sources I follow to keep up-to-date with the world military affairs so having this database to my disposal would take me to the whole new level. Keep up with the amazing videos 👍
Dude the game legit combines everything I want. But mainly the strategic and tactical gameplay, it's not like click here and there and win, it's a game where you plan out your moves. Everything you do has a significance, it's something I would imagine myself playing every day
This is an excellent review. I think you captured the essence of what makes CMO with Tacview Advanced such a great product for a military sandbox. I have attached LGM-30 launchers on a satellite, or because the game runs in real time, setting up a Cessna Civilian plane flying towards a restricted area and then launching 2 F-15s with Afterburners gives you a very accurate idea of how quickly this situation would resolve I purchased it with a discount because I owned CMANO and the Holiday Tacview Advanced Sale Bundle was hard to pass up. Tacview does give an appreciation for the AI evasive maneuvers and does add a worthwhile element for feeling a connection to your units when you can see them flying towards a target on a strike run.I think this review captured the best parts of the sim in an easily digestible size with interesting examples. Well done!
So i saw this video a few months back shortly after it was posted and checked out the game on steam. Say the price and said fuck that but now i was thinking about it earlier and work and bit the bullet. This is such a worthy investment. I can definitely see my hour count rising into the thousands alongside other great games. Thanks for turning me onto this. Hope you are well.
This is super cool! I am very familiar with the game Harpoon. It is a very similar type of game, but much older. I really miss playing it. Actually was a beta tester back in the day. But this game seems way more modern and has an updated feel, based on your video. I need to pick up a copy and try it out. Thank you so much for doing this video. Great insight.
I would really love to play this game! I have always been really interested in military strategy and simulation games like this and this game looks leagues ahead of the other stuff I've found online! great video as always man!
I dono if the word 'play' applies to something like this. I'm not sure if I'd even call it a game. It's more like an interactive encyclopedia with scenario simulations or something. Way over my head
It is really nice to see that you are making review videos, I think this one was a success. Aside from that the game looks real cool. Would like to play.
Thanks for the review! I have played a lot of CMANO and spent even longer watching every video I can on various aspects. This has been on my wishlist for a while and I would love to snag a copy if you have any left to see the new sim in all its glory! As you said when you throw in the community tutorials and scenarios on top of the DLC (I own them all) you will never run out of things to do. Thanks again for raising awareness of this gem!
Wow this seems right up my alley. I always go to Google earth and look up stuff I hear on the news about conflicts and this seems like a waaaay cooler way! Great video
This looks incredible, I've never seen something quite like this. I love simulators, especially things like this. I'd love to give it a try, especially considering it carries a heavy price tag for a new game.
I've owned CMANO for quite some time, and I never really could get into it. I saw that they brought out this new version of it and I keep looking back and forth at it, seeing that gnarly discount, and with me having been playing DCS almost religiously lately, it's made me want to get into the series again. I redownloaded CMANO earlier and I've been slowly learning my way through it, trying to get something done. I'd love to experience it with an updated engine, especially after learning to make missions in DCS. I'm unsure if I'll get one of these codes, but I would be absolutely ecstatic to receive one. If nothing else, I look forward to your videos, and they make for good entertainment at dinner time.
Not sure if you're still giving codes. Congratulations to whoever got them. I was totally unaware that something like this existed and I'm so thrilled to check this out. Thank you for sharing this!
Hello, I'm part of the silent audience, watched your videos since 1/1.5 years now ! And I'm from France =) I would be really happy to get a key seeing you play like this reminded me of how I played the first ArmA (Armed Assault), I must have played thousands of hours on it when I was a kid, and with ACE. I think I could get to the 2000 hours easily on a game like this =) wish you the best. PS : I would love to see some content about French army :p
Already spent hours just reading that database, I'd really love to play this new one. I've been watching CMANO videos for a year now and this new one looks awesome !
I only just spotted this on your channel; so glad I did! I used to love the old "Harpoon" game, and this looks like a worthy successor. Heading over to Steam to buy it right now! Thanks again, CC!
I have been playing CMANO for a couple of years and would love to have this game. I’m actually planning on buying it at some point. But my wife would love it (and the money I save!) if I could get it for free! This was an awesome explanation and I really hope the community grows because of it!
With all the comments out there, I hope this one gets noticed, despite me being so late. I've been really hooked to Wargame Red Dragon for a while now and my friend told me about CMANO, and i've been wanting to try it ever since. Just watching videos about it always seems to grab my attention, and just by looking at it, I feel like CMANO/CMO is going to be a very big but worthwhile jump from Wargame. I don't expect myself to still be lucky enough to get the codes, but if I do, i'd be really grateful.
I have a degree in Politics and International Relations amd focus mostly on conflict and causes, this is actually the only ever time I've been interested in a give away and I'd love to see how different systems respond to different attacks and terrains
Before I've seen this I never thought a game can be so cool and realistic. I've played with hearts of iron 2 for about 2 years and always wanted to progress to the 21st century with realistic warfare. But now that I see that there is an actual game in which you can plan an attack against basically everything, I am both excited and afraid for the secret masterminds who will use this to plan an attack against a nation. Please use it as a tool in your videos
Honestly, this game seems right up my alley. Perfect way to actively learn about various aircraft and weapons systems in an "operational" manner with a bit less sterile detachment than just poring through a Jane's article.
I want the game, and I’ll play it I been into war games and I want to learn more about modern ways to fight in a war. And Ps you have the best TH-cam videos out there, I am never bored when I watch them and it makes me want to learn more about war stuff
And a worthy exception this is! I love these kinds of games and I’ve been looking for a simulator just like this! Thank you for making us aware of this fantastic game
This game looks so frickin cool honestly I have no idea how I haven’t discovered this already. Thank you so much for bringing this awesome game to my attention!
Hey I've been playing CMANO for a couple years now between classes. I have over 1000 hours in game. I love this game because it gives you a perspective of modern operations through the eyes of what a combatant Commander would see. I served as a Combat Engineer in the Canadian Forces but this games gives me a broader perspective of Combat Operations. If you would like to send me the game it will definitely get good use from me :) Thanks again for the great video !
These are my favorite type of games, been waiting so long for something good and new to come out, thanks for the heads-up will be getting this regardless 👍👍👍
Dang I'm 3 years 2 late unfortunately I just got my pc less then a year ago so I'm still discovering games im.into games like this and love watching videos on it and then getting the chance to play this stuff is just amazing and I turn to these reviews in Hope's it shows me and tells me what I'm looking for
Hey @Covert Cable I've been really wanting the original for years but never bought it since its too expensive. I really enjoy your videos and looking up in depth the specifics and nuances of warfare, both historically and now. Thank you for making these videos and I was thinking about doing something similar focusing on UK military hardware since you tend not to cover that (and I am from the UK). Would really appreciate a code, but either way, thanks for this review! And of course for all the content you put out (and for not being biased). Hope you have a good day.
Definitely not your usual subject matter, but thank you for a succinct yet in depth review. I'd love to give the new version a try. I've loved this line of games all the way back to the Ticonderoga days.
I would love the game! I sincerely enjoyed the CMNAO version and sadly haven’t been able to play that for a bit since my PC blue screened a while back fortunately I managed to get my new one up and running about a month ago. Best of luck and congratulations to whoever wins a code from you Covert. Lots of deserving people out there 🙏🏻 PS; I know you don’t do reviews but I thoroughly enjoyed this
Saw this on Steam and thought it looked really interesting. Checked TH-cam and your vid was the first that popped up, and I have to say, given that I do tend to really like in-depth and complex strategy/tactical games, this is definitely one I could see myself sinking a lot of hours into. That being said, code or not? This game at least lead me to your channel and I am going to probably binge quite a bit here!
This has me really excited! Been a military hardware fanatic since childhood, and spent many an afternoon playing/tinkering with CMANO, especially making missions from the Soviet perspective. Would love a key if you'd be willing, as I don't have much income these days. Regardless, it's kind of you to offer; and thank you for the review!
This sounds awesome, I love setting up scenarios in any military simulation game I have. Whether Arma or DCS. I’d love a game like this to scratch that nerdy side of my military weapon fascination
I've always enjoyed Command: Modern Air Naval Operations, I even bought the Chains of War expansion as well. It is very exiting to see the new Command game. I'd definitely be interested in playing the new Modern Operations. Also love your videos, been watching them for awhile now.
I have heard great things from the first CMANO and have been curious about it. Especially from the great things like The Archive it has that you have mentioned in Tac Ops. But man this is just so cool. That Archive alone would be worth the purchase from me, such great information in one source and collected from reputable sources. Tac View, the pure depictions of systems operations and how they work in operations. MilSim Nerd Fantasy come true. If only I had time and the patience for this game. Neither which I have anymore in abundance. But I look forward to what this can bring to the channel and what info can be gleamed from CMANO 2.
I've been wanting to play this game for ages, because it looked a lot like it plays like Jane's Fleet Command,and it's been collecting dust on my steam wish list but I've never had enough money to play it because of the huge price tag especially for the DLCs
This looks amazing. The amount of "What Ifs" you could make...Soviet Intervention in the Gulf War, China and the United States going to war in 2002 over the Hainan Island Incident...Pearl harbor 2.0 with the JMSDF... Reminds me of Tom Clancy playing out the scenarios in his early books with the Harpoon tabletop gaming system. I'd love to give this a spin some time.
Man I've been waiting for an update to this game. Very cool that you covered this. Also have you thought about giving out a game code or two on Patreon? If I win a copy I'd play the hell out of it only stopping for your videos ;)
Ohhh man this is incredible, if we have games like these for the public, can't imagine what the government has. Honestly, more videos from this game would be nice, would love to play too!
I've had the original CMANO on my wishlist for years but never picked it up because of the price. Love these kinds of games, All of the HOI's (except 4), Graviteam tactics, Sub command/Fleet command. I'd really like to give it a try.
I never make review videos, and likely never will again. But this game I love, so I'll make a one-time exception.
Outside i skrrrt skrrt inside i hurt hurt
Hey! If you're giving out codes to viewers, I'd definitely be interested in trying the game out!
This game can easily be called a sim really. it's entirely relevant to the content of this channel.

Same here, I'm really hyped to try this now

This one in particular is very much so worth it. educational and easy to pick up. if you open the “start game” mode and select the “air tutorial” story, it’ll introduce you to the gameplay in a sandbox scenario and slowly introduce the mechanics at your own pace. It’s not a developer tutorial, it’s a community member’s custom tutorial.
you’ll also get a sense of what the previous game made you do manually that this one does automatically because the tutorial was made for the previous game. if oyu don’t see the window or options that the tutorial messages suggest, it’s because the new game updated it. it should be reminded that the tutorial is made by a community member and not the game devs.
the level of detail is staggering when you consider the windage effects on your missiles, the levels of damage two identical rockets can have on two identical targets can be ever so slightly different. and considering that the game is simulating actual soldiers in their respective roles, with programmed AI like self-preservation and different levels of skill, the game is much more friendly to people who have trouble with RTS games. It doesn’t ‘feel’ like an RTS after a while. It really does feel like you’re watching a graphical representation of actual combat and that’s what really makes it shine!
On a more basic level, there's Naval Warfare: Arctic Circle. Awesome game, but never received a sequal, unfortunately
Ditto. I wonder if people in military use it to test strategies.
Being into DCS this would be great to understand the more tactical side.
Owen Major as well as strategic side. Coordination of strategic assets and its tactical affects on an operation, satellite over flights, etc., time between sorties, etc.. it’s an incredible simulation.

2. How far back does the available unit types go? 1980, 1960?

I have a degree in Politics and International Relations amd focus mostly on conflict and causes, this is actually the only ever time I've been interested in a give away and I'd love to see how different systems respond to different attacks and terrains
This game looks incredibly interesting. Glad you brought this to my attention I have been looking for a game like this.
Before I've seen this I never thought a game can be so cool and realistic. I've played with hearts of iron 2 for about 2 years and always wanted to progress to the 21st century with realistic warfare. But now that I see that there is an actual game in which you can plan an attack against basically everything, I am both excited and afraid for the secret masterminds who will use this to plan an attack against a nation. Please use it as a tool in your videos
Honestly, this game seems right up my alley. Perfect way to actively learn about various aircraft and weapons systems in an "operational" manner with a bit less sterile detachment than just poring through a Jane's article.
I was just about to ask you a question about this game, then I go to your channel and BOOM this video shows up! You legend
Man this looks awesome. I'd love to try a game like this
Love the channel and the Podcast. Would love to play the game if possible. Keep up the good work!
I want the game, and I’ll play it I been into war games and I want to learn more about modern ways to fight in a war. And Ps you have the best TH-cam videos out there, I am never bored when I watch them and it makes me want to learn more about war stuff
And a worthy exception this is! I love these kinds of games and I’ve been looking for a simulator just like this! Thank you for making us aware of this fantastic game
Great vid man! I just purchased the game too. I learned new stuff from you, even though I've been playing a bit of CMANO! Thx :)
This game looks so frickin cool honestly I have no idea how I haven’t discovered this already. Thank you so much for bringing this awesome game to my attention!
Tim Farben It costs like $70. Pretty costly
@@JoeMama-yz7tw Yup i noticed, pretty expensive for sure
Tim Farben Lets hope the next sale will reduce its price
Seems like a fun game, definitely adding it to my wishlist.
Very good and informative video as usual.
Hey I've been playing CMANO for a couple years now between classes. I have over 1000 hours in game. I love this game because it gives you a perspective of modern operations through the eyes of what a combatant Commander would see. I served as a Combat Engineer in the Canadian Forces but this games gives me a broader perspective of Combat Operations. If you would like to send me the game it will definitely get good use from me :) Thanks again for the great video !
I would love a copy of this game! I have put hundreds of hours into the Wargame franchise and this looks like it takes the concept to the next level.
These are my favorite type of games, been waiting so long for something good and new to come out, thanks for the heads-up will be getting this regardless 👍👍👍
Wow - how have I never heard of this before?! Looking up more about it... already on my wishlist. Exactly what I want for xmas.
Buy the 3D add on and I would watch you play for hours like I used to love watching my older mate play Dune2 when I was really young. Cheers
Woah such a cool piece of software! I would really want that game especially because of that databank, its like a tactical wikipedia! so much to learn
Wow never new a game like this existed. I'm very glad you shared. Keen to give it a go.
Dang I'm 3 years 2 late unfortunately I just got my pc less then a year ago so I'm still discovering games im.into games like this and love watching videos on it and then getting the chance to play this stuff is just amazing and I turn to these reviews in Hope's it shows me and tells me what I'm looking for
The Tac View sealed the deal for me. Absolutely groundbreaking detail.
Hey @Covert Cable I've been really wanting the original for years but never bought it since its too expensive. I really enjoy your videos and looking up in depth the specifics and nuances of warfare, both historically and now. Thank you for making these videos and I was thinking about doing something similar focusing on UK military hardware since you tend not to cover that (and I am from the UK). Would really appreciate a code, but either way, thanks for this review! And of course for all the content you put out (and for not being biased). Hope you have a good day.
Definitely not your usual subject matter, but thank you for a succinct yet in depth review. I'd love to give the new version a try. I've loved this line of games all the way back to the Ticonderoga days.
I would love the game! I sincerely enjoyed the CMNAO version and sadly haven’t been able to play that for a bit since my PC blue screened a while back fortunately I managed to get my new one up and running about a month ago.
Best of luck and congratulations to whoever wins a code from you Covert. Lots of deserving people out there 🙏🏻
PS; I know you don’t do reviews but I thoroughly enjoyed this
Just saw this game on Steam earlier today, and immediately put it on my wishlist. It looks so good.
This is the type of game I've always wanted to play but didn't know existed! So make more reviews of anything you think we are missing out on!
This was sweet I’ve never heard of this game I got to check it out! Thank you sir!
Saw this on Steam and thought it looked really interesting. Checked TH-cam and your vid was the first that popped up, and I have to say, given that I do tend to really like in-depth and complex strategy/tactical games, this is definitely one I could see myself sinking a lot of hours into.
That being said, code or not? This game at least lead me to your channel and I am going to probably binge quite a bit here!
This has me really excited! Been a military hardware fanatic since childhood, and spent many an afternoon playing/tinkering with CMANO, especially making missions from the Soviet perspective. Would love a key if you'd be willing, as I don't have much income these days. Regardless, it's kind of you to offer; and thank you for the review!
I look forward to playing this. Thanks for review. The 3d option APPLICATION is too expensive right now.
This sounds awesome, I love setting up scenarios in any military simulation game I have. Whether Arma or DCS. I’d love a game like this to scratch that nerdy side of my military weapon fascination
I would be pretty thankful if I got to play it. Seems like literally everything what I hoped for!
I'd love to give this game a try, love your videos!
I've always enjoyed Command: Modern Air Naval Operations, I even bought the Chains of War expansion as well. It is very exiting to see the new Command game. I'd definitely be interested in playing the new Modern Operations. Also love your videos, been watching them for awhile now.
I have heard great things from the first CMANO and have been curious about it. Especially from the great things like The Archive it has that you have mentioned in Tac Ops.
But man this is just so cool. That Archive alone would be worth the purchase from me, such great information in one source and collected from reputable sources. Tac View, the pure depictions of systems operations and how they work in operations. MilSim Nerd Fantasy come true.
If only I had time and the patience for this game. Neither which I have anymore in abundance. But I look forward to what this can bring to the channel and what info can be gleamed from CMANO 2.
This game looks incredible. I’ve been looking for a long time for a milsim to play.
Excellent video, I just upgraded from CMANO to CMO. Gonna go try it now!
I've been wanting to play this game for ages, because it looked a lot like it plays like Jane's Fleet Command,and it's been collecting dust on my steam wish list but I've never had enough money to play it because of the huge price tag especially for the DLCs
man this looks really cool, I'm definitely gonna buy this, because this will help a ton for a map game i'm hosting
This looks amazing. The amount of "What Ifs" you could make...Soviet Intervention in the Gulf War, China and the United States going to war in 2002 over the Hainan Island Incident...Pearl harbor 2.0 with the JMSDF...
Reminds me of Tom Clancy playing out the scenarios in his early books with the Harpoon tabletop gaming system. I'd love to give this a spin some time.
Man I've been waiting for an update to this game. Very cool that you covered this. Also have you thought about giving out a game code or two on Patreon? If I win a copy I'd play the hell out of it only stopping for your videos ;)
Super cool video! Would definitely give this a try, plus I wanna see if they have the JSTARS platform in it, and see how my jet is utilized in game!
I've always wanted to play this game but the price has always been a deterrent, keep up the good work man.
Ohhh man this is incredible, if we have games like these for the public, can't imagine what the government has. Honestly, more videos from this game would be nice, would love to play too!
Looks really detailed and fun! I would love to play this.
I've had the original CMANO on my wishlist for years but never picked it up because of the price. Love these kinds of games, All of the HOI's (except 4), Graviteam tactics, Sub command/Fleet command. I'd really like to give it a try.
