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.

  • @Breadfan1280
    @Breadfan128029 күн бұрын

    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.
