    This was a lot more in depth than I was expecting. A lot of work must go in these videos.
    Reminds me of those ex commanders playing this game.

    You've no idea how much I enjoyed watching this. Not only have you got a great presenting style, but on a personal note, CMFI was the first of the CMx2 series I played and this was the very first campaign I played. In fact it was this scenario that gave me the idea of making CM videos way back in 2015. My very first video was one of the later battles of this campaign, Hill 1209 I think and then Cutting the Cesaro Road. I'd be very keen to see you play through the rest of this campaign - subbed and watching.

    Great video... narration and after-action analysis. I appreciate the amount of work that went into this, thank you. One thing that you pointed out is exactly why I was searching for game videos: the AI provides unrealistic survivability parameters for things like the AT gun. Under any set of rules multiple barrages of direct fire (the observers have LOS) of 105mm artillery, 81mm and 60mm mortars, 37mm anti-personnel and/or HE rounds and .50 HMG, .30 LMG, .30 rifle fire would be enough to, at the very least, suppress an 50 mm AT gun. I've experienced this same thing with the AI, it seems that no amount of fire can kill a gun that's in my way. I've read hundreds of books on WWII and can point to tons of evidence that even armored AT guns, once exposed, are vulnerable to return fire. There is no way that a towed 50mm AT gun even if it were in a bunker, which this one wasn't, would not be destroyed by the amount of direct fire. I experienced this a lot in CM and I wish they would fix this. Again, thanks for the video and thanks for highlighting this failure of the AI... your results would have been much better under more realistic conditions.
    By the way... to add something... my experience isn't entirely theoretical. Back in day, I trained with an M-79 and even though I never used it in combat I'm pretty sure that any grenadier worth his salt could put one of 5 or 6 40mm rounds onto that gun from 100 - 200 meters.... especially with some suppressing fire in support. So again, I'll say that the idea that 50 or 100 rounds of 105/81/60 mm fire can't kill the gun is ridiculous.

    Great video, delightful to watch the planning phase, and I really liked the AAR section, evaluating the game plan based on the principles of war is something I haven't seen any other creator do before and it really sets this video apart from the rest. I'm very much looking forward to the video!
