The Battle of Berlin has been compared to Stalingrad and there are similarities like the desperate street to street, house to house, street to room to room fighting but the scale of the Battle of Stalingrad was far greater then Berlin. Despite the fact that the Defenders of Berlin had serious inferiority across the board, they still made it quite difficult and costly for the Red Army to take the city. The Russians had to punch through 3 defensive rings like the infamous battle of "Seelow Heights" which cost over 40,000 Russian casualties alone. The final stand showed that WW2 in Europe was not going to end with a whimper. The German defenders were able to utilize some effective strong points like the Ministry of the Interior, the Gestapo Headquarters, and Tempelhof airport, and yes the Reichstag itself, which was a real pain in the ass for the Red Army to take. The Germans had a strong defensive line with trenches and other makeshift fortified positions with whatever tanks were left and some strong anti tank guns like flak 88s and also had support fire from two additional flanking strongholds, the Berlin Zoo Flak Tower and the Kroll Opera House. And even after entering the Reichstag the Russians still had to punch through room by room (especially the basement) before planting their flag on the rooftop.
Marmonator It's worth it. Tons of maps and ways to play even singleplayer. If you have a chance to play multiplayer it can be fun to strategize together.
Loot dead bodies for ammunition and extra PanzerFausts. To do so, select a unit. Then press "x" and click on a dead body. To pick up stuff from the ground. Press the small "crate" icon on the left.
During the battle of Berlin, the German Volkssturm used destroyed trams and put them as blockades on roads. They baricaded roads just like in the vid. *Volksstrum:* a sort of German "peoples militia" formed in 1944. It mostly consisted of old men and teenagers.
The Volkssturm may not know how to fight, but they sure know how to fortify a city to death. *Volksstrum:* a sort of German "peoples militia" formed in 1944. It mostly consisted of old men and teenagers.
maybe an idea for next time. but tank trap around buildings and walls so they cant just drive right into them. this can create a firm choke point where every armored tank will have to force themself into one point and just choke the rest out.
+Guy Cowan Really sorry to hear that. I am happy what everyone here has done to comfort you for the time being. It is the fans and my friends who deserve the biggest thanks for making the channel an exciting place to upload to. Thanks, Guy for your support. Best wishes.
can you do this map again and whit a little more realistic planing or just a single play game with cheats? cinematic battle on this map would be cool. and can you use this map in multiplayer btw?
+Stephen Casey Sorry if this is a late comment to yours. From what I read about World War II, on the Eastern Front, the rules of the Geneva Convention were ignored in regards to fair treatment of POWs. Apparently the USSR never attended the pre-war Geneva Convention, and did not abide by the Convention's rules. Germany abided by the Conventions rules, with the exception of captured enemy commandos from the Western Allies and the soldiers of the USSR.
o7 for favorite mine I'd go with the wooden undetectable ones for at and bouncing Betty's for ap also great video raptor and may I suggest we make a memorial for the frames that gave their lives too defend Berlin and Germany from the Bolshevik hordes.never forget.always have a fresh supply crate of RAMs.
Adam Hope HE IS AN AMERICAN! THERE IS ONLY ONE SPORT CALLED FOOTBALL - as clearly defined by our constitution - that sissy game that the rest of the world plays is soccer. We as proud, anti-communist, and uber patriotic, super Christian, Americans will refer to it as such.
+Silver Ace Correct me if I am mistaken, but I think that the mines were still the regular Tellermine 42 (metal), but were placed inside a wooden box, so that the metal detectors would not find it?
+Intimidating Biscuit No idea you could be right, as I said before I know very little about land mines. If anyone knows please tell us or link a good documentary that explains it.
Like not the city but before sealow. The Germans hold their ground in east Germany 150 miles from Berlin and manage a devastating counter attack killing 2 million Soviets. Would Germany be able to push back the Soviets into Warsaw and get a truce and then reinforce the western front and taking it back? Could that have happened?

Where can i find this map?
Correct fellow history nerd
@@franknezevic4385 i have been reading and studying WW2 for 20 plus years its been a passion of mine.
I wish I had friends that were into strategy games like this one. I would love to play some co-op.
slandshark Hey I saw your comment watching this video and was wondering if you'd still be up for some co-op Berlin defense?
Actually, yes. My playtimes are limited though, usually after 9pm Pacific time (USA, west coast).
slandshark my times are very flexible so that's fine. I'm available now and otherwise let me know when you are. I'll send you a pm with my steam name.
For some reason I can't seem to direct message you so here you are, steam name is Sacramony, picture of an angel.
Where can i find this map?
I almost laughed myself to death when he did the weather report about it raining T-34s
I ended up watching the whole thing, it also convinced me to buy the game. It's a lot of fun!
same thing happened to me too, i might buy the game.
Marmonator It's worth it. Tons of maps and ways to play even singleplayer. If you have a chance to play multiplayer it can be fun to strategize together.
slandshark so is the enemy in the multiplayer ai? or is it player controlled too?
I think you can choose to play against AI, so like co-op versus AI is a possibility.
Or you can play player vs player.
slandshark i will then most likely buy this game in the next month :)
Great a new type of defence for the Reich a bacon strip! We can't loose!
A bacon strip of metal.

I have given up on Pixel, I really wanted to support him. But this battle showed me that Raptor is accurate in dogging him so much.
The Volkssturm may not know how to fight, but they sure know how to fortify a city to death.

"We've got the Bacon line being set up." I find this line so funny.
Good job on containing Bilzerian's 5th shock army!
maybe an idea for next time. but tank trap around buildings and walls so they cant just drive right into them. this can create a firm choke point where every armored tank will have to force themself into one point and just choke the rest out.

o7 don't know much about much about mines but there was a type of mine that the Germans used that were made of wood to trick metal detectors.
+Silver Ace Correct me if I am mistaken, but I think that the mines were still the regular Tellermine 42 (metal), but were placed inside a wooden box, so that the metal detectors would not find it?
+Intimidating Biscuit No idea you could be right, as I said before I know very little about land mines. If anyone knows please tell us or link a good documentary that explains it.
