AWESOME THE BEST!!!!!!

one question did you use campaign and then edditted the vid? or was it your own game??

[XShadowY]

@nanoquest1 I created my own missions with the editor to get the exact setup as I wanted. However, you still had to play the same situation endless times to get the footage you were looking for, because the events can be so unpredictable. :-)

Why don't you use Men of War for new videos? Same game engine, it's the sequel. The graphics and physics are much nicer.

[XShadowY]

@JesseB954

The "Theatre of War" videos are almost 3 years old by now, probably any new WW2 video will feature "real" 3-D models, not game content. The close-ups in "Men of War" may look nicer, but the scale is too small and the Fog of War quite ugly as a background (except you are a modder and know how to get rid of it, which I don`t).

@XShadowY fox of war can be turned of from setup, i think it would be awesome if you would use men of war to make vids.

[XShadowY]

@timesplitterdude Thanks for the hint. :-) However, I don`t think I will be doing any more WW2 videos with game content. "Theatre of War" was nice for that, because of the scale and compatibility with "IL-2 Sturmovik", but as you may have noticed I`m working on a WW2 stop motion film and maybe I will publish a WW2 CGI animation in between. :-)

Biggest mistake of Hitler attacking Russia

just like what Napoleon his forces waren't strong enough for the Russian Winter

At 9:16 I was like:

HO-LEE SHIT!

Very well done, and that goes for your other vids too

[234jari234]

@termometen That doesn't make any sense at all!

The tides began to turn in 1942.

Hitler had seized all of Western Europe with no or few attacks launched from Britain nor America.

The Russians did it all by themselves..

[dave19941000]

@234jari234 It would have worked if his Generals where the ones incharge. Hitler changed the plans of attack while the battle was raging sevral times.

[TheGermanempirerocks]

@XShadowY I have a question how do the soldiers surrender?

[termometen]

@234jari234 the wouldn't be any problem in Russia if Hitler wouldn't have started wars on all fronts...

[234jari234]

@IMASIANSNIPA Yeah Totally,  haha

[234jari234]

@dogensu Almost forgot that one, thank you for saying it and reminding me of it

[dogensu]

@234jari234 don't forget the teutonic order as well...
