World War Two
22 hours ago
We have a general rule that we do not do special episodes about individual battles. Since each and every one of them is important to somebody, if we do one we’d have to do them all, and there aren’t that many hours in the day to even attempt that. And that would also destroy the holistic nature of this series — i.e., presenting a week instead of a battle to illustrate the ebb and flow of the war and how everything is really all tied together. That we would not be able to convey if we made this series battle-centric. Having said that, we DO do specials that involve the planning, logistics, weapons, etc. for major offensives and whole campaigns, for getting into the minutiae of that is not possible in the regular weekly chronological episodes, and that is what you get today. I personally (and this is Indy writing this) believe that is really the major role of the specials, to flesh out aspects of the war we can’t cover in the regular series, but what do you guys think?
