Text-and-image guides for WitE2

All of the guides I see online for this game are youtube videos, but I learn better through reading. Are there any good guides to the game (aside from the manual, of course) that are in text and image format rather than video?

RE: German Benign Occupation?

It could be argued that Germany could have won WWII if they weren't Nazis.

But if they weren't Nazis, they wouldn't have started WWII.

"Next unselected unit" button

<t> I'm sure we've all had a time when we hit the End Turn button and later realize that we forgot that group of infantry we wanted to move.<br/>

A button that cycles through any units that haven't been selected this turn would let players quickly and efficiently ensure that they at least ...

My recommendation is the book Soldat: Reflections of a German Soldier, 1936–1949 by Siegfried Knappe. Knappe ...

RE: pacific question

Summer seems optimistic. While the current game is really good it could use some polish.

The Polish are already in the game. Have you even played? /s

RE: Polish 10th Motorized unit

<t> I'm not too experienced yet, but in my games I've been surrounding it best I can, I usually get 3 or 4 infantry corps on it, soften it up with air strikes, and attack once or twice to dislodge it from Krakow turn 1.<br/>

From there I'm usually set to take Warsaw turn 2, after which the ...

Are there any QOL/UI mods for WitE, or are they mostly scenario/map mods?

I'm looking for mods that make the UI a bit more navigable, maybe a bit more aesthetically pleasing, possibly different font? Is there anything like that out there?
