Thanks for continuing this series which I thoroughly enjoy. Next best thing to playing my own campaign. Your low-key running commentary and detailed explanation of your strategy make you stand out above others IMO. I do also appreciate your editing out the uninteresting portions. I agree with your earlier comment about looking forward to your next revolution. I'm at about the halfway point in my low-tech campaign on Altis against CUP SLA occupiers and RACs invaders, but am already thinking about the next. The difference between our wars is quite interesting, and speaks well about this mod. I must admit your war is much more exciting to watch than my plodding play would ever be to watch. You take the war to the enemy with minimal forces that I wouldn't tackle without 3-4 HC squads in support. I recently had a close call with Pedros myself when an SLA QRF going after one of my mortar units happened to pass by my HQ as I was ready to call it a night and had already released my squad, so I had quite a bit of "fun" fighting them off single handed since I could neither recruit help or move Pedros. Since then, I always garrison my HQ which I didn't even know I could do after 300 hours of play. Made me wonder if you had missed that too or were intentionally not doing so. You can also garrison roadblocks and watchposts to beef them up, just like towns or strongpoints. No need to use HC squads. The only "bad" thing about garrisoning the HQ is that the troops like to fill up the pillbox which makes it difficult to get to Petros. While I totally understand your decision not to use the "withstand" feature, I would recommend you consider trying the PLUS Parameter "[Experimental] Allow Players to take control on AI units while laying unconscious." This allows you to take control of one of your squad members with a single keystroke (make sure you have the AI control time set to 120 seconds) to give them (you) a chance to save you when you are down. Some of my men have performed amazing heroic deeds to save their leader. 😀 Best Regards!
Thank you for that, yeah the AI feature I did see when testing some other mods out was unaware of it at first so I may put that on next series over the withstand feature. Early game I garrisoned units at HQ but generally I don’t, I did this episode and I feel they may have made contact with NATO, which is why I think the HQ got attacked. One reason I also don’t use mortar teams etc anywhere near base, they’ll get a reaction instantly haha. Yeah I’ve had a few different ideas for the next series already, not 100% sure which one to go with yet but maybe ill make a poll on the channel with some options for you all to choose from 🙂
Looks like the neighbours grassed on your new base location or maybe NATO somehow managed to spot the huge fricking white and green helicopter parked in the field just outside. 😅
The moment I saw you pick cluster strike, I knew that factory is destroyed, lul. That feeling when you get mission to defend Petros or see enemies there is always fun. You did the right thing (at least for this terrain) and ran away. Got the defend mission pretty early on and it was hard, but thankfully enemy was too stupid to actually kill Petros.
Marshall’s and Martyrs, that was close! I have thoroughly enjoyed this series since episode one. “Luvly Jubly” has me in stitches each time. Keep it up. The Very Best, Bill
May I suggest the enhanced movement mod it’s a great mod, it allows you to volt over sandbags, fences, walls and climb small buildings, it pretty much makes the game a lot easier for mobility so if your interested I would recommend it. (There’s a video on the mods page showing you how to key-bind it)
@@theurbanhermit365 yeah there are some, i found an old ww2 style pillbox on my campaign the other night, used it to kill a spec ops team on an assassination mission
We live to fight another day my friend, I feel we are pushing our luck as of late. Hopefully we still have that luck on our side next time as well haha
@@theurbanhermit365I think you should move Petros after every second or third victory on the map. The better the chance of his survival if they can’t narrow where he is
I feel this was just unlucky that they came across the HQ. The men garrisoned there must’ve started engaging the passing units and caused them to stop as I got zero of the counter forces up at the factory haha. Keeping the HQ away from roads in future haha

Yeah as soon as I sent that bombing run my other braincells clicked on 🤣🤣

Yes its something I've got on the list for possible mods in the next series, thanks for the suggestion though.

How is there all this stuff on the map with no lag
NASA gave me one of their super computers 😏
Like and good video.👍👍 I know you'll pull a comeback, i have trust.
The revolution lives to fight another day !
Does this map have any of those old bunkers/fortifications on it? 🏰
I’m not 100% sure, there are old ruins in the jungle areas in places but not sure about old WW2 style bunkers etc 🙂

Phew. Saved by the skin of our teeth. Petros will not be a martyr today! The revolution continues!
