One of the big disappointments for me in this release was Battlefront didn't introduce US 2nd and 3rd line troops. National Guard and Reserve units sporting M48s, M47s, GIs in pot helmets with M79s/M60s/and 90mm recoiless guns, and so on. They have all that 'Nam era stuff out there, so it would have been great to see those units get ported into Team Yankee! And before someone says it- yes, the National Guard and Reserves were using that old stuff back in the '80's. Heck, they were using it as late as the '90's when I was deployed to NTC and got to see some out west tank unit sporting M48s! I think it would have been fun to see USANG/Reserves running M48s against Cuban T62s and T54/55s.
The helicopter supplement, with the tokens, it´s enough for those of us who cannot afford the high prices of helicopters. I love this new book, and Team Yankee in your channel.
My biggest concern was this going to be campy, don't get me wrong I love the movie but you know, a crossover like that could have been funky. But honestly they added so much cool stuff for the Soviets I love it. I wish they would have added the National Guard or something for the US. I also hope they add Russian Marines (Morpeh) later down the line.
I was a little disappointed in the book, most of the units and equipment has been covered in the previous Soviet books. As to the lack of Canadian equipment, I suspect they are keeping new units for the upcoming NATO book which could be used on the Nordic front as they were to reinforce Norway.
I'm hoping we'll be getting ERA equipped Pattons (They were in the Gulf War), Army Rangers, and LAVs for Canada. Supposedly, Finland is going to be added to the game on NATO's side "Soon."
With all of the new helos I’d love to see your channel focus a video on how to employ them successfully. God knows a number of us have tried but given the current rule set, it’s a significant challenge.
I like the idea of RD but as I already have a soviet army I passed on all of these new products. And most of the new stuff is resin/metal kits, so another reason to pass.

High school football as well as Pop Warner (little league for kids). When I played, you had to go for the two point conversion, which was not automatic. There were plenty of scores divisable by "6".
What about the game time? Fifty-six minutes left in the 1st quarter, lol. Maybe the 18-12 score represents the last war we fought against the Brits, haha.
Honestly the invastion of the US works better in Teem Yankee's world then the movie's it could happen 20 minutes from now peacetime US... As the world has been fighting for at least a decade and the US milltary is looking elsewhere and this is a desterate play by the Soveits to get a air head in North America to recall some troops off the front... Also I presume the Cubans are fresh so that's a thing.
