  1. Five hundred and seventytwo. What do I get? http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCErJUMogz9-Hjj3zJdJ1XOw
  2. Thanks. http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCErJUMogz9-Hjj3zJdJ1XOw
  3. Oh... and I'd stick it in the theatre but have no idea where to find it????
  4. I made this to show the juxtaposition between man in his fragility and the monstrous nature of industrialised warfare... oh hang on... no I didn't. I just like movies with big bangs.
  5. Arse? Actually MD is just my initials, thus revealing an appalling lack of imagination in picking a name.
  6. Sure. Replaying each move and capturing it from different angles with Bandicam. Then I import and edit it in Magix Movie Edit Pro 4. Oh... while your doing this it's important to let your wife/husband think you're doing important research and not playing with your toys. It helps. Mine thinks I've been working on a cure for the common cold
  7. Thanks for the compliment. It's easier than it looks. it just takes time and software but I'm REALLY happy that people are looking at them.
  8. I knew it was a mistake not to read the manual. Usually it's the german who split my teams... with gunfire
  9. Hmmm... didn't even know there was one. Will have a look in a few minutes. Thank you.
  10. Ahhh... Darling Dickie! I like to think he would have had a word with his friend Sir John Mills, to play a cameo roll in it.
  11. Thank you Odd! I remember watching Cross of iron years ago and at the time I was also reading a great book called Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer about a German soldier on the Russian Front. Both had a profound effect on how I perceived the war. I grew up reading comics like 'Battle' and 'The Victor' which weren't exactly hard hitting documentaries about the conflict . Actually, it's amazing the effect those comics had as well as movies like 'To Hell and Back' and so on, because I guess I'm trying to write a novel about the second world war, I'm playing combat mission and using it to tell little war stories. I'm not sitting here with a tin hat on and a Lee Enfield propped up in the corner but in my head... sometimes... the kid in me is tempted . It loves the war in 'Dunkirk' with Sir John Mills and would have wanted to be there while the adult abhors the War of 'Saving Private Ryan and is very grateful i wasn.' Those old war movies are definitely the template for what I do now and I have to say, give me more pleasure to do than for anyone to watch which makes me feel very self indulgent but what is life without ones little pleasures. Thank again Odd.
  12. Yes. So it is. oddly enough I usually don't like music in a war movie but seeing how powerful it can be in rousing a response in the viewer and engaging them with the story, even in something as low key as this little movie, I can really understand why they do it. I'm not sure what it is I object to in war movies with music. I think maybe it seems like the equivalent of canned laughter in a comedy if that makes sense?
  13. Great feedback! Thanks for watching so far. Double joy here first at being to play this game and then make a movie with it. I've put another one here about Arnhem. Don't fee obliged to watch it too. Don't want you getting combat ( Mission ) Fatigue
