Has Anyone Ever Made it the Whole War?

Now there are so many mods my ancient computer won't run the games at all, so I'm not playing at all until I can get a new computer.

Of course there are some people who have reported completing the entire war in on career. I think the method was "reload saved games until you make it".

Being a veteran of F-16 Fighting Falcon back in the 90's, I have no problem at all in "Doing the dance" as we called it, which is modding and starting from scratch. The reason I find this a breeze in SH3 is that modding F-16 meant following a hell of a strict list of what to install first/next/next, that getting the game up to speed could easily cost a full 10 hour day. Such was the instability if you put a single foot wrong.
So, I have no problem (with Steam) in clicking 'delete local content' install, mod, done. In fact this is almost a pleasure in comparison. I'm also in the (severe case of) OCD mod club. We should start some kind of members club.
