I will try, but the thing is to add new content and not replay the whole of it

There are many different ways on how BE can be played )))

Tips PREVIEW on the use of mines

Mines can be burden to the players, but they can also be manipulated to the players’ advantage!
So, some useful tips from the replay so far:

A] The Mod offers few free mines during play
Tips where to place them, in general where it is expected future enemy presence, examples:
Tunis N. Afrika this mine was manually triggered multiple times reducing destroyers, cruisers, even a carrier.
Novorossiysk outside the port AI brings quite a lot of units there.
Normandie for defending against the D-Day landings.

B] Opening up paths to move

In this case Tirpitz was “freed” in Norway by deleting the mines blocking her departure

C] Mines can be destroyed by destroyers, tactical bombers, even Arado units!

D] Blocking enemy movement

I would say it is best to ask him or some other moderator when such a video has been made. Some improvement in this area would be nice as it looks like quite a lot of people are unable to install complex mods, and not only BE but also PAK and the others. They read the guide and still unable to install such mods because they just do not have the necessary computer skills. Perphaps a video would be more helpful for them.

I guess you are replaying BE v2.0? I suppose you are aware that quite a lot of things have changed / improved in v2.2? Including unit stats, unit prices, balance, new options etc. I mean some strategies and unit upgrades which are good and effective in BE v2.0 may not be so great in 2.2 and vice versa? Even if probably most things are still relevant...

That is correct it is the BE v2.0 I am replaying, so, I guess some of these maybe irrelevant for 2.2
