Expert Reacts Extended Episodes Over The Top

Content

Time to dig to victory (though preferably not in a straight line...)!

This week we're breaking down the trench-fighting arsenal of Over The Top: WWI, revelling in its destructible terrain and admiring some heavy-duty shoulder firing.

As always, as an Extended Episodes or VIP Patron, you get an extra long episode, including a couple of extra guns, as well as getting it ad-free and a week earlier than the main feed. Lovely stuff!

Jonathan Ferguson, an expert in firearms history, and the Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK, digs in and breaks down the guns of Over The Top: WWI, including the Chauchat, the Hotchkiss Machine Gun, and the monstrously chunky Tankgewehr 1918.
