It's good to see a run-through like this. Perhaps what was missed was the carry-over effect of stress on the choice of pilots as the missions progress; who to have fly, who to rest. I found that to be one of the things that really brought Hornet Leader: Carrier Air Operations to life. And damn the Leader series can be stressful to play! WW2 is more my thing and I'll pre-order Tiger Leader which is due out in March '15. This gameplay has given a good feel for what will be involved in that - it seems to be based on the same gameplay mechanics. Much appreciated!
Thanks for the nuts and bolts series.. please add more of these educational videos.. highly recommended ... best so far in the tube.. i owned hornet leader CAO and phantom leader so i am intrigued by the CAS elements in TAL...
This is one of the best play throughs I have ever seen. Thank you so much. Just got this game after a long anticipation and your video will really accelerate my start up. You did a great job here with excellent pace, clear concise description, excellent detail on all the counters, and very clear gameplay commentary. So much better than other offerings on this game.
Very nice explanation of everything that happens during a mission and game mechanics. The only mistake I saw was advancing the 4S battalion which is a fixed battalion. I made a Cyberboard version of this and Phantom Leader Deluxe because my girlfriend doesn't like games left set up on our only table. It saves wear and tear on components too since you don't need to use them and you can stop anywhere in the scenario, save it, and start right where you left off at a later time.
Being a new guy, thanks for your clear concise explanation during play, it helped me understand what was suppose to be happening. Great video!
