This game really unlock the inner loot goblin with a mix of gear fear lol
Im abit further then him and i totally agree if u dont save scum ur going to have a rough time
@@smurrlordWhich is really bad game design IMO.
@@SovietGrazznah it makes sense time travel is a big part of winning in the terminator universe 💀
Bro is a man in his mid Thirsty's that has a job but plays games for fun and to entertain, this man deserves more!
For real. With the skills for both playing and commentary at first I thought he’s been doing CZcams for years 😂

Reminder that you can resupply squads by throwing them in the back of the stryker. I think this applies to all vehicles like the armored truck too.
Anything that can fit the squad and has ammo supply, van spam for the win.
Mason and Church keeps their guns campaign wise, you get to wield those two groups more later on, so the guns are not lost, those just are their own unique 'power ups' since you can't give them abilities based on unit experience like the others.
Heads up for when you get to Oklahoma get extra tank crews there are alot of Abrams and Bradley's just laying around
Oh, BTW, don't forget to use infantry formations. You can make the militia 5x more survivable if you spread their squad out. Now a whole ranger squad won't die to a single well placed nade.
This series makes me crave buying this game and trying a Founders only run.
Gl with that run brother. I already lost majority of the Founder units but the one tank crew.
you are gonna need meatshields to keep your founders units😭
The reason the optional objective you didn't understand had you hold the logistics building was because the cartel would try to destroy it rather than leave the supplies for you. It's easy to miss a lot of the objective updates on the radio when the combat is hectic.
awesome series bro! a little advice: all armored personnel carriers have a supply of ammunition for infantry, during the battle when you have a limited resource, you should spend it only on armored vehicles (tanks, artillery, etc.) and periodically put the infantry in the armored personnel carrier so that they can replenish the ammunition. efficiency*
Cant help but get the feeling that you have a much larger force than the game expects you to maintain and field
I am only 5k over the devs recommended guidelines at 60k
@@ThreatXtra I suspect most of that Upkeep was/is coming from the Vehicles and Trailers you are hauling. Like hell the M1 Abrams alone is 5500 Supplies. (but i mean, its a TANK! Pry that thing from your Cold Dead Hands!)
@@jaywerner8415 and Rimmy tried to play whit out it and mission was darn near impossible whit out it (he failed to grab the tank whit the Rev-6 that ran out of fuel).
@@Zack_Wester whos Rimmy?
@@jaywerner8415 another CZcamsr. He didn't get the Abrams
Ich freue mich auf das Ende jeder Mission indem man alle Sachen auf der Karte Looten kann !! Ich wünsche mir ein Einheiten Dlc oder Map Dlc für die Kampagne. Ich bin seit gestern durch mit dem Game und jetzt starte ich einen neuen Run.
Wahoo! I've binged every episode! Really enjoying the let's play!
nice to see someone else's playthrough, your force is much lighter/ much more movement based than mine at this stage, however you have better infantry generally, interesting to see
Next episode? Game is great, but lovin' yours playtrough! Keep them commin'
On your point about Goodwill vs Supply points after the Albuquerque mission - You definitely get more Supply per Goodwill point, but the base only has LIMITED supplies. So you can have a situation, like i did, where you pick the goodwill points because you get more, but I still could not convert all of them to get the required total supply for movement, without sacrificing total army size too much. (Of course I need 3 heavy platforms!)
In my case, I reloaded the save because it worked out better to take the 200k supplies (which was more than the goodwill conversion value) as the base's own supply is only 180k.
Like you, I didn't want to get rid of my precious boys so I opted for the instant supply gratification, I then converted the rest of my Goodwill, after spending on upgrades, into the amount of supply I needed to move. Whereas if I'd have taken the instant Goodwill points, I could get all of the upgrades but I'd have to reduce my force too much to reduce my daily supply.
I hope this makes sense, and maybe someone finds it useful. I get way too embroiled in min-maxing everything and forget to play the game sometimes lol.
Just thought i'd touch on your point there anyway.. Save the touching on tips for later ;)
thank you for video it's realy nice that you keep it daily, great work man :)
The Huey chopper is so much fun to use in this one
Wow nice man ive been waiting for this midnight now in india I love this series u r doing good keep it up one day u become a very popular youtuber
Damm can't w8 to get 2 this mission,great gameplay videos btw keep going hope u become big on CZcams
I think I've come to the conclusion that this game is the RTS equivalent of Dark Souls for me. Not so much the difficulty, but more because as much as I love dark souls, it's a spectator sport for me.
I really enjoy watching people play it, but I don't really enjoy playing it. Watching you play this has left me with similar feelings.
I will say that compared to everyone else I've seen play this, you've far and away displayed the most skill and tactical consideration in missions. You've understood the mission statement that "every unit matters."
It's just a shame the game kind of punishes you for being too good. Sure you can stock up on goodwill credits by selling extra units, but they're not that useful when you're not able to fully buy out every shop because you don't have enough things to utilize the stuff.
Always fun to see you have an aneurysm to play this very difficult game
Kinda weird think i got...
I'm sure that i can play good... idk why, I've never been good at StarCraft 2, all i do is just getting people and sending them to counter attack
This series and your space pirates and zombies game are some of my favorites
Thanks love both of these games :)
In this game, there aren't really optional objectives. All of them will get resolved one way or another and more often then not bite you in the ass in the process.
Can’t play this my self don’t have a good computer but I am loving the videos. Also new to the channel.
Love the tactics
6:52 also before you go on and deploy a helicopter i must warn you. If you try to disembark units while helicopter is still on decending phase it will be bugged and you will not be able to finish the mission because helicopter's stuck trying to wait fot the bugged unit to disembark. It is better to just wait for it to land and visually confirm the blades of the rotor is slowing down then you can disembark the troops 😊
Im not sure what type of units you would prefer to carry on helicopters but im using them to quickly deploy engineers to scavange enemy armor. Another tip: helicopters can trigger some missions if they get inside the trigger area
58:13 You're too used to Kondo doing 360 noscopes out of boredom and still hitting.
1:06:09 Yeah, exactly my experience with this deliciously hard game lol
Oh man, I don't know why, but watching the walkthrough reminded me of a game you should check out sometime. 7.62 high caliber. It's an old game, but it's a real journey. A buggy gorgeous journey that all tactical game lovers should try. It's like jagged alliance 3 but interesting.
I derped on this mission and held 5 fronts instead of 4. I didn't consider using the one bridge closest to our spawn as a chokepoint and held both sides instead. This seems a lot smarter :D
That was Fun
It’s like he played this mission more than once 😉
Dude just pulled a Caiaphas Cain at the 27 min mark. 🤣
odd that the cartel tank/ erc 90 is so expensive, it's supposed be a reliable and economic vehicle afaik
You know, if the resistance had sended big bob back in time to save john connor with Kyle, there would never have been any skynet or legion.
Yipeeee
Yeah your squad in the back can shoot from the slits in the stryker sides and rear, though rate of fire seems a bit weird
This game should just do the thing Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader did in that when you leave the map, all the weapons on the ground get transport into your inventory. You having to go around ordering your squad to pick up random guns is just an annoyance.
I hope they do a pass on all of that as yes that would be a huge help but also probably break the eco balance hahaah I do actually fully loot a map as best I can but of course I cannot pick up the majority of weps on the floor
We must have more logistcs, but most importantly, more tanks or maybe even helicopters
Btw reserve people actually do eat supply. If i am not wrong 100 supply for each person in case if want to reduce used supply
Still can’t believe that you play on realistic haha
im a bit further ahead from this episode and there is this perticular mission thst i have no idea how you are going to approach.. Even on normal mode it took my youth away from me
i wish you was able to play this
You should have taken the helicopter it is op
This is gonna be hard to micro manage
Game is hard :3
I prefer em more simple like Starcraft 2 but this is an interesting one :3
I honestly think that the whole supplies system is a little meh. They could have done without a need for it to travel at least. Hell maybe someone will make a mod to eliminate the supply requirement on the map
i completed the game once had to sell lots of good units and was bad and hard with supply. 2nd playthrough im using a supply cheat to embrace my loot goblin and get the rest of the achievements
@@smokeybear1597 are you using cheat engine? Maybe you can give me an idea of how to apply it myself
i'm pretty sure it's just the diffuculty he chose being realistic
@@mackheadrum1295 the difficulty only affects how much damage your unit models take, not supply consumption.
@@nurgleschosen8145 how far have you gotten in the campaign
Hey man just to let you know you can have a terminator facility to make terminators for by going to Oklahoma city and you can get four achievements for saving rangers in Oklahoma city, finding all founders units in Oklahoma city, helping all heroes survive till the ending and the final one is to gathering all possible help for the final mission. Obviously there are more like destroying or befriending integrators, execute the mayor of vega and recruiting his son. Oh by the way if you still have balzano truck you can give it back to him and will later help you out (probably). And then you can help build the road to abiquiu, and you can visit all points on the map, and you can get a railgun too, by the way you must kill all cartel commanders or will be big problem later on the line gpt it ?
I screwed up a few times and had to cheat and add supplies otherwise youre justs stuck.
hopefully you can top off your supply trucks. because you go threw ammo like it nothing. great job
I must admit it did skip my mind I now had mines again however after that battle perhaps it is best leaving them for supply for a battle with heavy stuff such as the legion tanks
true I thought after writing it. @@ThreatXtra
You might be a LITTLE Paranoid, after all your fighting Humans not Machines. But at the same time its probably the Healthy kind of paranoia given how LETHAL this difficulty can be.
mercs arn't great, they don't get perks and are stupid expensive, yes they are okay as a generalist, but you can field like 4 movement infantry types that do cover all your specialties but better.
So like, did you ever recruit the Furies on the previous map?
Not it was not possible so sad times
@@ThreatXtra can't recruit furies they are a gang you can duel to get the achievement for fighting all the gangs
can't recruit furies they are a gang you can duel to get the achievement for fighting all the gangs
crazy they think it takes 5 days to cross half of one state. and what number is it using for supplies. makes no sense. Supreme military force but don't have enough food or gas to even make it to a battle
they are a resistance moving through hostile territory, so it is not as they can just jump on the highway, floor it and expect they won't get ambushed. Plus there has been a 10 year long guerilla war going on so I also doubt the infrastructure is in the best shape
@@doggo_needs_help5379also im not sure if T-force is even a fully mechanised force, i don't think there is enough vehicles to fit all that infantry. I wonder if travel is faster if you put everyone in vehicles, but it probably isn't
Despite the fact that it is more profitable to take Goodwill points, it is often better to choose to get Supply for the following reason: you are given a lot of Supply, you additionally sell trophies and buy more Supply in the settlement. This is guaranteed to be enough for both the resupply army and to get to the next settlement.
If you choose Goodwill points, you may end up with a shortage of supply in the settlement.
the developers behind this game never played this game i bet !! the entire campiagn is fucked, no clear objectives, rushed objectives with very small time limit, losing even 1 platoon punished you really hard.
snipers arent able to provide line of sight , snipers cant take units inside buildings effectively, i have an experience where 1 sniper took 50 bullets and couldnt kill a single soldier inside the building...
i was playing on medium difficulty and i was about to destroy my keyboard the game is so broken , desbit looking really beautiful and interesting units and art design
"Lot of infantry....no cover..." if only there was a thing by which could bring there own cover, or perhaps travel in said cover....hmmmm....I wonder could yhere possibly be some warefare doctrine that has existed for a century or more that could be of some use here. If only there where oh I dunno vehicles that could carry those troops into the fight or around the various locations. If only you could have those troops loaded into those vics from the menu before even deployment into the map, you could save a lot of time and effort. at least the enitial push into the fight each vic being a taxi for the troops would an amazingly useful capacity in this type of game. If only mechanised and armored infantry where common RTS options in most games including this one. Such a useful capabiloty vehicles would be if used properly.
I understand I get a lot of comments about proper military tactics and how I do not follow them but this is a video game infantry has cover in buildings that's it. If there is something blocking incoming fire to infantry it means that unit cannot return fire unless they have something like a grenade launcher.
Having a random amount of units inside vehicles while enemies can come out of nowhere with mounted or manned AT and instantly destroy them including the units inside seems like a unnecessary risk in this game for me unless I know for sure that route is safe.
I would also point out over half of the missions this far have had units come into the map under fire to reinforce the above point if my truck with 16 people inside is shot on map load I just lost 3-4 squads instead of potentially 1-2 men.
Ur channel ruins my life just like this game ruining ur life🤣🤣🤣
Noone ever got excited for a jew terminator game just to send hours fighting the cartel, what a snooze level, not your fault I love your videos, but they should have focused way more on surprise new I filtration terminators and weapons and virus, humans makes it same as countless other games
Or, just fighting against Terminators may become a snooze fest, so mixing it up with some human focused missions makes things more interesting, especially in the next mission, where Cartel and Terminators are mixed together at the same time.
this game is driving me nuts, it really needs a balancing pass. I'm getting tired of save and loading and "fixing" stupid placement issues of troops like in the last cartel mission when you get the reinforcements at the gate.
The game design in places is terrible.
It has a good basis of game mechanics, but it needs several patches to iron out the Bullshit so to speak
