During the combat certain positions had little ribbons over them, those are the places where you are supposed to go in order to fulfill your current orders.
but he just gave us a reason as to why he hasnt done any gaming so yeah but i was was wondering myself so i eventually took a gander at his other channels lol
Hi, French viewer here and I love your videos. The Jean-Pierre Danner character is from Kolmar (now Colmar) in Alsace. The départements of Alsace (Haut- and Bas-Rhin with the exception of Belfort) and Moselle were taken from France during the 1870-1871 Franco-Prussian war. Because of the Kulturkampf, Alsaciens sometimes defected to the French side and they were later affected to the Russian front. Also the pickelhaube started being made of metal sheets in 1915 due to leather shortage in Germany. The game seems very inspired by All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque.
Very cool concept and style to this game. Love the graphics and the presentation style. The turn-based, almost choose-your-own-adventure playstyle is awesome. Really looking forward to this series.
this is a really cool game. wishlisted it. probably will buy it later after I've mostly forgotten the content I view on this channel, and when its out of early access
Looks good! Anyone else find it infuriating that the date format is the US only format, instead of the global format that the Germans (and other Europeans) would use?
You should be able to get a usb to sata/m.2 adapter for the old hard drive/ssd and pull the saves directly from the old drive to the new PC. Although steam saves are notoriously fussy with moving from drive to drive, but hopefully all works.
If you were playing your previous games on steam then steam usually defaults to cloud saving all your games. You have to manually turn it off. You might actually still have your saves.
Hey Chris, I'm new to your gaming channel but I watch your main channel all the time. If you're a fan of the history of the Wild West you could try Red Dead Redemption 2. It's heavily fictionalized but does allow you to run around in an important era of American History. Anyway though love your channel, keep up the good work :)
That other sergeant didn’t deserve his men going hungry, atleast a little help is needed for Them since there wasn’t Any shipmemts anytime that week it’s the least a proper sergeant would do to a equal
And to add to the sjove statement, it’s only the beginning of 1915 and troops still weren’t actively Aiming to kill eachother and the sergeant wouldn’t know the War is still far from over, we Are 7 months in and the war seems to be over in a month or so, the Christmas trues was just a mere 4 weeks ago from the start of the game
What are your sources for stating that German troops were regularly rotated out of the front? While I know this became routine for British and French troops, I have not seen many claims regarding the other side. In fact, quite the opposite - at Verdun, Falkenhayn believed the french (who began to rotate depleted units to the rear) were experiencing greater loses due to the appearance of these new divisions, whichbit was believed were replacing destroyed units. The Germans, in contrast, would be kept at the front for longer, with smaller units rolled into others when fighting effectiveness requited it. True, this is comparing operations during a major battle to day-to-day routine, but still if does suggest a wider difference in mindset. It is also the case that when german divisions needed a rest or re-equip, they would likely be posted to quieter sections, such as around Cambrai. WWI is not my specialism, so any further information or corrections from those in the know is appreciated, particularly regarding my opening question.
You're not talking about the same thing as I am. You're talking about the rotation of units. I'm talking about the rotation of men. At any given time, the majority of a regiment or division was not on the front lines. Men would be rotated within those units. So while a division might spend months at a time on the front, the men within those divisions did not. German soldiers were rotated off the front line trench every 4 to 6 days.
Out of interest, I know artillery was the main combat killer by far. But was disease etc still the main killer in ww1 or was that finally eclipsed in that period?
For US forces it was about 50/50 between disease and combat deaths but that is because we joined so late (so the flu pandemic took a greater percentage of ours). For the other combatants disease was far less a killer than battle deaths.
@@TheHistoryGuy Thanks for that. The most recent thing I'd read was out of combat deaths was far higher, but I'm thinking it was maybe about the Salonika front which was a bit of a Sitzkrieg in a bad environment. So thanks for clarification,much appreciated.
