Just bought this game and like many newbies, total confusion! Thankfully found your tutorial series. Very informative and helpful thus far. Great job! Many thanks! :)
I just got this and had no idea what I was doing. It throws you into the game with a few tips right off the bat but it seemed like there was so many mechanics and features, I wanted a proper tutorial since the game doesn't have one. Thanks a ton! 🙏
Cant thank you enough. I am COH fan but the inventory system and squad splitting kind of caught me off guard and I wasn't able to make head toe of it. Thanks Again!
Brilliant mate. I've got to admit i'm struggling to get my head round all the different aspects of this game, damn it's the hardest game i've ever played but this video has really helped. Now i'll find a few more of your videos and learn more. Thanks.
Great stuff, thanks for doing this video, I couldn't find one tutorial that started at the ground basics (click here to do this, etc). And this video is 7 years old, and still useful!!
I'm thinking about making a video focused solely on the UI for those of you who are having trouble there. I appreciate all the good comments; I'm happy to help!
Brendon, thanks! Please be sure to check out the others as well. My friend and I are in the process of remaking them on the new AS2 engine with new A/V so they'll be of much higher quality soon.
Thanks man, very helpfull...When I first started I couldn't pass the second level of almost every faction, I would get to last line of defense and then get beaten back to the beginning by a few infantry squads and a couple of tanks
HoseAKM, thanks a lot, please take a moment to up vote the tutorial series in the guide section of either Men of War: Assault Squad 1 or Men of War: Assault Squad 2. :)
So a few years late to these vidoes but ill watch them all when i have time. But ill just say this when i play as the Soviets and almost everything is lost i send in tons and tons of infantry to charge the caps. They usually end up all dead because some HMG has mowed them all down or mortars and other stuff. But sometimes it works like yesterday when i used the charge special unit or what you want to call it i captured the point and defended my beautiful KV-2 and won the game.
Be great if this game has some kind of tutorial as I just want to play a skirmish and assumed it would be like any RTS but it doesn't really give you any indication of what to do and nobody seems to do skirmish tutorials
@UCWBvDeSX-M8jVWEGRWxOWpw::: that MMB is Actually Assigned too @ short Cut keys By Default, the Cam Rotate & #2 Switch Fire Mode MMB, Now how does that work??? i just got the game yesterday 2/19/2019 and this video is from 8/24/2014 that ruffly 5 years so they may have changed, But that does not Answer my Question you playing this game for that long, what do you say???
ZettaiBaka These tutorials are pretty generic and don't get into any unit or faction specific information. You'll be able to apply the concepts just fine. Thanks for asking though!
This and a lot of the early tutorials were indeed recorded using the original "Men of War: Assault Squad" client. I didn't change the title to "Men of War: Assault Squad 2" because I don't want to confuse anyone if they notice any minor differences between the games used to record these videos. Largely, they're the same game just with some enhancements to the engine in the sequel. Also, my microphone setup with these early videos was not so great :/. Keep watching em, they get better; glad you found it useful regardless!
@majinkai Humor aside, this is hands down THE best basics tutorial video I've seen and I've seen plenty which claim to be basic but in fact they are not at all. Your explanation is perfect, THIS is how you make a tutorial! The game terribly lacks one and puts you in the middle of combat instantly which really annoyed me but it's a good game neverthless. Now I can enjoy the game and I subbed instantly and will watch your other videos too. I checked your page briefly but couldn't find the video on UI you stated in a comment. If you can link it to me I'll be thankful. Kudos to you Sir!!

Just bought the squad 2 game. Disappointed that there was no tutorial mode. Really appreciate your videos. Thank you. 😁

Not enough of these videos around. Thanks a lot.
Thanks man! The C button and F1 is critical in this game
Brilliant mate. I've got to admit i'm struggling to get my head round all the different aspects of this game, damn it's the hardest game i've ever played but this video has really helped. Now i'll find a few more of your videos and learn more. Thanks.
Hold 'C' to highlight things on the floor. I can't tell you how much that helps me out. Thanks man
Finally a console demo, great beginning for newbies, thanks!
Great stuff, thanks for doing this video, I couldn't find one tutorial that started at the ground basics (click here to do this, etc). And this video is 7 years old, and still useful!!
Hi there - just started playing MOW AS2 and your videos are just what I need to get a grip with the game! Tjanks for doing them.
I'm thinking about making a video focused solely on the UI for those of you who are having trouble there. I appreciate all the good comments; I'm happy to help!
Your videos are brilliant, sir.
Thanks mate, always appreciated!
thanks for clearing the fog of confusion on this game

Thanks man, very helpfull...When I first started I couldn't pass the second level of almost every faction, I would get to last line of defense and then get beaten back to the beginning by a few infantry squads and a couple of tanks

Thanks a lot, very useful vids
Haha I'm a veteran. I just love these videos
Liked and subbed. Thank you.

Thks, for great Video.
I just bought men of war a c 2 and for beginner its a bit :) hard begining.
Nice tut. Thx
Thank you.
Does anyone know how you change your hotkeys from default to your choice or the choices outlined in this video?
@UCWBvDeSX-M8jVWEGRWxOWpw::: that MMB is Actually Assigned too @ short Cut keys By Default, the Cam Rotate & #2 Switch Fire Mode MMB, Now how does that work??? i just got the game yesterday 2/19/2019 and this video is from 8/24/2014 that ruffly 5 years so they may have changed, But that does not Answer my Question you playing this game for that long, what do you say???
how to recruit unit
Thanks for making these. Do your tutorials still apply to Assault Squad 2 with the latest updates? Have the mechanics changed since?
ZettaiBaka These tutorials are pretty generic and don't get into any unit or faction specific information. You'll be able to apply the concepts just fine. Thanks for asking though!
The music is a little loud lol
Never liked AS. too many lines, features and that shadow pisses me off. MOW was the best.
2 things , 1: this isn't men of war assault squad it's men of war assault 2 , 2: work on the background sound good video though thanks
