A Master Strategist Uses British WW1 Tactics to Win WW2 - Men Of War II
Ойындар
Welcome to Men Of War 2 the latest release from Best Way Games. Today we have been sponsored by Fulqrum Publishing to checkout the game and have some fun in it. If you enjoy what you see then you can take a look at the game on steam where it is on sale here: bit.ly/SpiffingBrit_MoWII_Steam
The goal of todays stream is to have some fun and dig into the games various experiences to see if it is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits and that my grand plan as a master strategist of using british WW1 tactics is overpowered and will allow us to win WW2! For reference THIS IS A PAID STREAM, I have played the previous men of war games on steam and regularly enjoy WW2 RTS games so this is my usual cup of tea when it comes to gaming. I hope my adventures in the game will help you work out if it is your kinda jam.
The very exciting steam description of the game reads: Experience warfare like never before! Men of War II, the anticipated sequel to the highly acclaimed RTS franchise is here with all-new units, locations, campaigns, game modes and true trademarks of the series: historical fidelity and action-filled gameplay on the Eastern and Western Fronts of WWII.

Ah, WW1 Tactics, A brilliant plan. I assume this plan involves climbing out of the trenches and walking towards the enemy very slowly around 19 times. And then winning by doing exactly the same thing you did 18 times before because they'll never expect you to do the same thing again this time.

"That would be a waste of good smoke grenades, when the Soviet spirit is more than enough" sounds like something that would actually be uttered on the Soviet front.

Russian's using ww1 tactics and meat waves? How Topical!
Please do more of this game continuing from this point if possible Thanks for the great video
I would absolutely watch you play through multiple campaigns of this
Just finished the end of the stream. Now to watch the video yay!🎉🎉🎉🎉
The Spiffing Brit would probably still save more lives using WW1 tactics than the Russian Empire during the same war or the Soviet Union with the second😂🥶

It got kind of review bombed tbh, lots of those reviews have less than half an hour ingame, and lots are complaining about stuff that's actually solved ingame...
Section 1: Spif learns that trench warfare requires digging trenches.
This game actually proved why WW1 tactics ceased after that conflict. The western front originally devolved into static lines of trenches with both sides lobbing stationary artillery at each other. In Spiff’s second game, he “establishes” a static line with stationary artillery and the Germans counter attack with mobile artillery, or the self propelled gun known as the Wespe. After being blown off the hill, Spiff comandeers an abandoned Hanomag and proceeds to mobily cut down German infantry in the woods. That is most certainly NOT a WW1 tactic. Kudos for trying Spiff, but this challenge was a fail for you at least as you originally intended.
And thus The Spiffing Brit shows why WWII was not fought like WWI!
Spiff needs to be careful before he gets drafted for a ww3 tactician.
Briliant livestream as always Spiff 😂😅🤣 Arta FTW, its how I beat BK 1 funnily enough
That reminds me, in the whole conversation of Jan and jelly, marmalade was left out.
The bloke gf was right! It's not about the caliber, it's all about positioning on the battlefield ;)
Spiff is like a t-Rex he sees a tree move. Blindly fire all guns at the tree
Soviet Tactics: When the ally in front of you dies, take his gun. Spiff's Soviet Tactics: When the enemy in front of you dies, take his tank.
4:40 Have they hooked him up to the power grid yet? His incredible rolling motion could likely supply the entirety of England with power.
This is Mr. Nesbitt of Harlow New Town. Mr. Nesbit would you stand up please. ... Mr. Nesbitt has learnt the value of not being seen. However he has chosen a very obvious piece of cover.
As one of 'The Loud Ones' I will say your videos are always good fun.
Such lovely foreshadowing at 2:00:00 leading to 2:03:00 coincidentally, also known as "exactly when the sponsorship ends".

Artillery is overpowered wow! The ai should start counter shelling or maybe sending aircrafts when you are just holding your forces back and bombarding them without even seeing them. A bit to easy to guess where they are without them retaliating
1:50:56 in WoT wespe is no joke. It is good with flat fire as well as arch.

I thought the British tactic in WWII was being bombed into oblivion? While being prim and proper. Drinking Yorkshire tea of course.
I thought he said WW1 British tactics, but judging by the death toll seems to be using modern day Russian tactics?
Violating the Geneva Convention does not count when using WW1 tactics. The Geneva Convention was after WW1. Have at it with those otherwise potential war crimes.
"Those people" or "the loud ones" and still picks the "everything's shite except piss".

Men of War 2 looks like Men of War 1. So it's a good game. I need to buy it. More MoW 2, please!
interestingly concerning "heavy attack bombers, not acceptable", if you want WW1 tactics russia is the best country for that since they used the Ilya Muromets, which were pre WW1 arliners converted to be heavy bombers
1:53:05 wasnt it on the corned of crops-field?
As a wise man called sseth once said: and as britain find out , if you use man walking and a single line infantry in the ww1 war, you gonna find out that these same man you will find difficult to join in the continuation
Very nice gameplay, but Spiff just play it poorly without much strategy except for rushing forward recklessly.
anyone feel the irony of watching from America a video of a spiffing brit plays a war game made by a Ukraine dev, and playing as a Russian army lol
Artillery would have been fine...WW1 was LOADED with arty....
