      Man how can you butcher a name this hard? Zuehlke is clearly german origin, could be written Zühlke too. The Z is pronounced like the „ts“ in „tsar“ and the „ue“ like the „y“ in „syllable“. And then just add the rest.

    I like to think that in order to get the machine spirits of the imperium's trains moving the Adeptus Mechanicus has to play the Thomas the tank engine theme song. Its not actually required for them to operate, it just makes them go faster.

    43:30 From what I've studied of military history, and what a couple high school buddies who went in the service said, this is EXACTLY how you deal with a minefield under open field assault. If there is no cover, then you have to charge ahead. Ideally, on a wide front: If spaced out, it makes it harder for the enemy to sweep down groups, and while each individual soldier has a larger chance of hitting one, the company as a whole will not suffer entire squads dying to one mine blast. Not to mention, once one company has charged over... others can follow.
    A minefield is meant to slow and demoralize an army, removing mobility. Mobility is the only thing that keeps a soldier alive against machine guns and artillery.

      Modern US doctrine has an Abrams equipped with a plow directly follow the deployment of MCLCs (mine clearing line charges) deployed from an armored vehicle via rocket. These will explode surface mines in a path several meters wide and I believe a hundred meters long. The plow Abrams then sweeps the ground ahead of it with the plow to detonate more deeply buried anti-vehicle mines. Engineers mark the assault lane and follow on Abrams put pressure on enemy defenses as a MCLC is used to clear the next hundred meters.
      In order for the assault to succeed, close air support is required to neutralize enemy artillery, while artillery keeps the infantry's heads down and prevents them from effectively deploying ATGMs against the tanks. Once an assault lane has been cleared, the infantry follows quickly behind the armored forces and deploys from their vehicles only when in direct sight of enemy trenches. At no point does the infantry assault on foot across a mine field. If the US Army can't effect this plan for whatever reason (airspace is too heavily contested, for example), then it simply does not conduct an assault. Modern static defenses are entirely too deadly and will guarantee failure.

    What an amazing video
    Regardless of what you like about 40K, this story has something for you. Due to varied story telling, with the frequent change from the battle overviews to the more personal, focus on a sole unit, to keep the piece continually fresh and entertaining, or the fact that neither Chaos nor loyalists factions are badly portrayed (meaning fans of both sides can be entertained)
    Its also always nice to see the folks over at Krieg in their element (that being said, not the best to paint to, as upon hearing the Krieg bayonet charge, I instinctively cheered, and smeared my model... worth it)

    By far the best video on the Siege of Vraks. Solid storytelling too.

    If I had a nickel for every time a creator has uploaded a video made of multiple previous videos focused on 40k today I'd have two nickels, which isn't much, but it's weird that it's happened twice...

    I mean, the Cardinal's advisor was Deacon MAMON.
    Most of the time, a character in 40k named after an Archdevil is going to be evil.

    The Krieger, arriving on Vraks and facing no resistance while setting up their positions: "I was promised a deadly battle but instead, there is NOTHING! Not even a small welcome barrage. What kind of hellhole IS THIS?!"
    Then, when they finally arrive at the front line, shells raining down left and right, watching battle brothers drown in the mud puddles that were their foxholes: "Blessed Emperor, this feels almost like home. I love it!" *fixes bayonet*

    "Exterminatus was out of the question."
    Of course, Vraks' strategic value was absolute.

  • @jordanlobo8512
    @jordanlobo8512 Год назад +6

    i wonder if loud speakers could have potentially ended the siege,
    "you know, YOU guys are heretics fighting the Emperor right?"
    then they be like
    "aw sh*t fam my bad"

    We NEED at game that is set in 40k, plays like World in Conflict/Wargame RD, with the scale and base building of Supreme Commander. They could sell each Army for 20.00 bucks with an almost unlimited amount of possibilities for cosmetics.
