Recommended Posts

This is Part 2 of a short series giving a summary and overview of the tactical fundamentals and principles behind WWII German and Soviet armoured unit tactical drills and combat formations commonly used in 1944 using examples from Combat Mission Red Thunder to illustrate key points. 

Part 2 Covers how tank formations helped German panzer commanders control their units, stay aware of potential threats, and use their firepower effectively. It follows on from from:

Part 1 which covered the difference between formations, drills, principles and tactics?

Thanks for making these videos....really nice...

To improve on them further it would be nice if the 'rolling text' could be a bit faster and that you instead leave the picture a short while longer after the text has completed before skipping to the next one...

Sorry for the nit picking 😊...The videos are overall great...

Thank you - aye appreciate the feedback.

Yeah the text thing is finding the sweet spot for users. First time around it was too fats, this time too slow, so reckon I know where the sweet spot is now :) 

Re delay between images - yup I'll take that into account. Its been a steep learning curve so feedback like yours is super useful thank you.

Cheery!

It's not really that it's too slow — as noted by @CarlXII, you have no time to read the end of the text because once it end rolling it disappears lightning fast! 😉

Indeed I agree with @CarlXII, having a faster rolling text with longer pauses once text is fully expanded and before the next picture/slide would be perfect!

Ah gotcha, thank you :) I'm working on Part 3 so hopefully I nail it in that :)
