need another vid ASAPPPP never seen anyone make a video on shock force 2 like you and i absolutely love it how you display what troops are being deployed and the cinematic shots are 10/10
“LT, we are in position. Do we engage?” “Hang on sergeant, wait for the colonel’s signal.” “Sir, what’s the sig-“ Col. BlueBallz: “VIOLENCE VIOLENCE VIOLENCE!” “There it is! OPEN FIRE SERGEANT!” Edit: On a serious note, could you briefly flash up the mission briefing on screen during the beginning of the video in the future? It would be cool to be able to pause the video and read the campaign briefings included in-game.
S-4: "Sir we finally have the ammo consumption list from Col. BlueBallz, but all he put in section 1 for 5.56 was 'A shit load' below that for Mark 19 'A Metric fuck ton'. Side note, I don't know how long it took him to do this but that was the most beautiful execution of this mission I've ever seen. Nothin' fancy just good movement and enough suppression that the air turned 90% lead.
Bruh, these fucking comments lmao. That S4 OIC would accept that shit too, or ima boot that ass to the BSB with an unsatisfactory on his OER and under principle duty title, he's gonna get a big fat "he a bitch".
Always looking forward to your videos. I learn a lot of strategy. Do you usually use general or anti personnel artillery rounds? And are you playing turn based or real time?
Thanks for watching man. Most often, I use anti-personnel, unless its a structure. I play turn-based, I do enjoy real-time though, it's just not conducive to making videos.
If you ain't Cav, you ain't shit! 82nd (great unit) and then 10th Mtn (not so great unit) The majority of my time was as a section leader, although, I have worn many different hats.
excellent work as always quick question - is there a reason you dont split your squads into their individual fireteams most of the time? i found it very useful to split into teams since you can use better spacing in trenches, buildings and open fields whereas when giving orders to full squads they tend to bunch up a lot additionally if you manouver an element into a bad position, its easier to disengage a single fireteam (using supporting fires from the rest of the squad) than having to deal with a full squad stuck in a killzone i get thats its more pieces you have to control, but from my experince it is worth it - what do you guys think?
Depends on the situation. If I'm using a company, I tend to issue orders by platoon, if using a platoon, I issue them at the squad level, that is, until I see the need to break them down further. Maybe some would argue that it is always warranted to split elements down to the lowest level possible, but I would prob disagree. It's situational really. Sometimes it is absolutely justified, other times, it's just extra work.
I did almost as well on this mission but I didn’t trust the city not to contain hidden RPG teams so I dismounted in the prep phase and pushed my rifle squads up on foot and never remounted them. I managed to lose a few Marines and two AAVs to lucky RPG shots as well. I’m not sure what you have to do to get that enemy casualties objective since I only left 6 Syrians standing.
These AARs are insanely good.
I miss these videos and your unique take on Combat Mission. Hope everything is good!
This is narrated so beautifully, it's a bummer you don't put out more videos :(

I nearly shit myself reading this comment. Your enthusiasm has convinced me, I'll start including the briefings again.

Hey man, missing the videos! Any plans of returning to the channel?
Damn man. These are good. When’s part 3? 😢
Just watched the videos for this campaign. Super bummed to see you aren't active anymore :(. I'll be subbing in hopes that you return one day
Wow, goes to show just how much ammunition it takes to maintain proper suppression.
Always looking forward to your videos. I learn a lot of strategy. Do you usually use general or anti personnel artillery rounds? And are you playing turn based or real time?

Just found your channel cause of this series fucking love it ❤
Whats your mil background? My guess would be army cav or infantry PL or PSG.
If you ain't Cav, you ain't shit! 82nd (great unit) and then 10th Mtn (not so great unit) The majority of my time was as a section leader, although, I have worn many different hats.
