    The_Chieftain, history concentrating mainly on tanks. His Inside the Hatch series, aka Does He Fit, has revolutionised how tanks are seen, as did his lecture on Myths of American Armor. Operation Think Tank is highly enjoyable as well. "Drive me closer. I want to hit them with my sword."

    TIK. Concentrates on the more obscure aspects of WW2, and actively encouraging revisionism as a way of re-examining the historical evidence. His recently posted re-examination of Dan Pienaar during Crusader, in response to a critic's belittling of his knowledge on the subject, is a masterpiece of historiography.

    Also look at Military History (not) Visualized, which are two channels, Visualized and not Visualized. Extremely informative if you're already versed in the subject, but extremely dry if you don't already know a fair bit.

    World War 2 - each week.

    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Historia Civilis.

    Their video on the Roman Pomerium was fascinating.

    I am a bit disappointed with Word War 2. The show is good, but not as great as WWI. I wonder why Indy left WWI so prematurely.

    Contract IIRC. TGW is basically finished except for the extra epilogue content.

    I've seen all of WWT so far but only ever a fraction of TGW. What's the complaint? Is it the absence of ancillary subject videos?
