I have recently made my way through all the video tutorials and must say that I am very impressed with the work done. I found the examples and layout to be very good and quite thorough. When I buy a new game I tend to follow the same routine while I learn, and that is to take it slowly. I usually read the manual through, check most threads on the forums and study examples before diving in, sometimes taking several days to a week to do so. That is why I was pleasantly surprised by the addition of the videos. Credit where it is deserved.

May I ask who did the reading?

That would be me. Thanks for the praise. I'm glad you found the videos helpful.

Seconded, these videos tutorials are the best thing since sliced bread to allow a player to graps all basic concepts, manipulate the game etc !
It takes less than 1 hour, and it's much more "fun" than reading a manual (even if I like that too).

It's brilliant, kudos on this

Now I want all wargames ship with this feature !

Thirded. The videos have answered many of my questions when my own, inept stumbling about in the game hasn't quite sufficed. Great job on those.

I would also like to say "great job" on the videos but I have one small nitpick.

Cavalry is pronounced "cavalry" not "calvary".

I think Joel's a Christian, so that can come out without thinking...

Well they can both get you out of a hot spot.
