As a relatively new player, this was extraordinarily helpful. The way you explained the infantry tactics with specific examples from a real game was perfect. Thank you so much.
Great video! Also yes those little 50mm mortars are freaking insane, quick smokes when needed, loads of ammo, quick targeting and of course dirt cheap!! It's a great addition to any deck in my opinion and should always have one near your masses of infantry for support
At 3:00, I want to add that you can change the formation by holding right click and dragging. The further you drag, the more spread the lines will become. If you right click and drag those four you can get anything from a square, to three in the front one in the back, to all four in a line. Alternatively, dragging the mouse the other way lets you line them up vertically. May or may not be useful for people but it still should be stated.
Been playing for a while and never realized how detrimental it was to give ALL my units the same attack order. Move in no more than pairs when possible, got it. Thx
AtkPwr thank you so much with such amazing and informative tutorial videos I am bing watching all of them. I give you a like and a sub cause you deserve a lot more love
kind of somewhat related unrelated question. in army general you get mot. avtomatchiki, which are basically avtomatchiki with an mg. since the mg got me in trouble multiple times already when i wanted to charge a position, should i just deactivate it outright?
The problem with this game is that it is too big, it does not explain itself very well, and you basically have to have read about WWII combined arms tactics including 'why did unit x fail in these circumstances' to understand what some problems might be because coming from Eugen's Cold War era simulators I only realized after reading about the Eastern Front how and why I was playing it wrong. Namely in that a post-1960 era unit will not have crippling overspecialization, a lot more mobility and firepower than a pre-1960 unit. By contrast reading about how deficiencies in motor transport and equipment in 1942 plagued the Red Army I could understand what I was doing wrong with infantry combinations. It is still difficult but I find myself more sure what to do.
I did not need too much example but let’s me understand better overall I train infantry micro in sd44 because sd44 is more infantry focus and more strategic game
Once a unit is fully supressed and it says pinned, walk up with your unit and it will surrender as long as the enemy doesnt have an unsupressed unit nearby or a leader in range

Absolutely, so glad it helped! Make sure to check out the entire playlist of tutorials!
Whenever someone teaches you with a video of a match that they lost in, theres a very high chance they know their shit. Great content!
Thanks so much for watching!
Just got SD2 and feeling really lost... this helped a lot in what it was focused on! Great channel!
Thanks a bunch! Make sure to check out the other tutorials for more topics!
Really appreciate these guides on SD2. Bought the game during lunar sale and came from SD44. Your vidoes help me adjust faster
Thats awesome! Thank you so much! Its a rough game at first so every player I can help is a win!

Very strong, but they are quite micro intensive, otherwise they don’t do anything haha
Great video, reiterated the points. Concise, usefull did great examples and counter examples. 10/10
Thanks so much!

Great to mention, thank you!

Yeah you gotta be careful with the way they bunch up and move
I appreciate the time you took to help out us fellow newcomers. Your strats have massively improved my game.
Absolutely! I hope that they were helpful!
This might be your most informative video. I think everyone should watch this video.
I agree, this was full of good stuff!
These are top notch guides. Very to the point.
Thanks a bunch, glad they help!
Very useful (and I'm not a complete noob). Thank you
Absolutely! Thanks so much for the support!
Nice and clear tutorial. Well done :]
Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for the content)
Thank you for watching it!
Thanks for your helpfull vidéo, you empowered me.
Glad to hear that!

I often will deactivate rifles or something on a cqc squad if they output so little damage it doesnt make a difference
how do you use TNT? do you actually have to select it or do troops use it automatically?
It will automatically throw it once you are in 100m
Great video but I hope these weird Sound effects don't become a staple
No they don’t haha
Those bunched up units would look mighty juicy to my artillery/mortars
That can definitely be true haha

There is a lot to learn, but the game is amazing not gonna lie. Nothing like it on the market

Yeah there is definitely a factor of spamming infantry a bit in this game
I'd have loved an explanation on how to surrender a unit.
Once a unit is fully supressed and it says pinned, walk up with your unit and it will surrender as long as the enemy doesnt have an unsupressed unit nearby or a leader in range
@@atkpwrgaming Awesome, thanks.
