I Used an Ice Cube Boat to SINK the Japanese Navy [HOI4]

[@BurroDiablo]

The Researchers that built the 1000 tonne Habakkuk prototype concluded it would've cost more money and taken more resources to build than a whole fleet of conventional carriers. The pykrete had to be reinforced with steel, it also required the construction of a refridgeration plant and thousands of miles of ducts to keep the pykrete at a continual -16c. They also they never really figured out how they'd steer the thing.

[@thetibbiesshow]

Love the lil history tidbits. Thank you

[@DuploSwine]

I can watch whatever you post as long as your videos keep being so chill and cool. And I'd like to see more navy videos. In the future you could try and unify the Northern countries as Communist Norway, it's very easy and they have good navy potential.

[@cameronmcgregor2583]

I'd probably agree, given how you can't really just mindlessly use navy anymore unless you have a giant fleet

[@IDONTKNOW1072]

On it costing so much, Habakkuk was supposed to be 600m long, almost 2 times longer than USS Enterprise (1961, not 1938), the longest ship ever built. It was also determined that the steel used to build the massive refrigeration plants that froze the Pykerete could instead just be used to make a conventional carrier.

[@Bozothcow]

I greatly approve of the bathtub destroyers.

[@TheTripleAce3]

Just a note if you ever do this again in the future, ice carrier can use any plane type iirc, not just carrier planes.

[@thetibbiesshow]

I did not know that… good note and I’ll keep that in mind for next time for sure.

[@majormissile5596]

Holy shit, that's actually pretty cool.

[@TheTripleAce3]

@@majormissile5596 It was one of the main reasons behind the project in real life, to allow for strategic aircraft to hunt down uboats in the mid atlantic, then we swarmed the ocean with tankers converted into aircraft carriers and they worked perfectly well for much cheaper.

[@boneman9751]

So is this the only attribute to the ice carrier or are there are stats worth considering

[@TheTripleAce3]

@@boneman9751 i don't know the stats off the top of my head but i assume that its hp and armor are cracked, especially since it is SLOW

heya congrats on 10k ur honestly the best navy hoi4 youtuber i know

[@docklikeable9264]

Oh man, you spent time to do this. You sir is a legend

[@panayiotispoutoukis3956]

I really like your videos because you are the only hoi4 youtuber that uses the navy! In my opinion is the most fun aspect of the game.

[@xxOmponxx]

The great part about navy is there’s many ways to win against the AI.

[@thetibbiesshow]

Honestly, that’s why I love single player. It allows for more diversity of fun without having to worry about meta.

[@draycollins6321]

I love your content I always watch when you post heres to tibsmas!!

[@wastelander89]

I love your videos please keep them coming . I look forward to them evrytime they come out in my notifications. Thanks for keeping them chill

[@jodon2271]

Im really liking the templates at the end of the video, good idea Saint Tibbs

[@thetibbiesshow]

I had so many people ask me what my templates are, and doing this also allows me to cut like 10 minutes from my vids too which is great. I’m glad you are liking it!

[@jodon2271]

@@thetibbiesshow nice. Are you from WA? Only asking cause of the boeing thing (its fine not to answer, i get it); if you are, Ive been watching from the Oly Peninsula!

[@ThePoutinePrince]

Fun fact: the canadian navy at the end of WW2 was the 4th largest navy in the world after the US, UK & Soviet Union. It had 3 full-size fleet carriers and over 400 warships.

[@antonjensen4858]

Hi bro just wanna say that school has been really hectic recently and taking a break with some tibsmas 🎄has really helped. Thank you!

[@wastelander89]

Your so good at navy. U built 10 percent size navy compared to Japanese navy and u wrecked them. No doubt ur really good at playing navy in hoi4. I love naval hoi4. Can u do battle cruisers next time and see if u can make insanely good bc or fast battleships. Or super heavys

Tibbies you are awesome! Keep going

[@sharkymb8552]

just finished watching, another banger video

[@maxvonplatzer5329]

Great navy video as always! Maybe more Axis navy gameplay? I feel that playing as nacal allies is too easy because you have the british and american fleet on your side, the 2 largest. Axis only got japan, since italy is basicaly locked in the med. Would be great to see more minor axis fleet like the netherlands video. Navy manchucuo?

[@thetibbiesshow]

I’ve pretty much finished posting allied content for the month, so there will absolutely be axis/non aligned navy gameplay soon.

[@mr.tapman8685]

No views after 38 seconds, bro fell off 💀 In all honesty though your Japan video really taught me to appreciate the navy in this game!

[@AdamNCharge]

It's the most Tibbiest time of the year

[@christater5540]

I continue to politely request you to play the vanilla navy rework

[@gamegod273]

I think what matters more when selling in the market is what trade policy you're on, export focus provides a bonus to the speed that it provides but I'm not too familiar with how it works

Happy Tibbnukkah!

[@pycus13]

When will we see poland vid in the tibmass series? I wish to see someone competent play it in a cool way in this dlc.

[@enriquegarcia7207]

Amazing video!!!!!

you should have built an army so the brits would have given you labrador

[@ThePoutinePrince]

also please play the Vanilla Navy Rework! it is by far one of my favourite vanilla mods. It will make you so happy.

[@GuyFromCanada]

Hey look ma it’s me :)

[@heavytf2501]

It's beginning to look a lot like HOI4

[@battleship6177]

I never build the "meta" Navy, I always try to build "historical" but with all slots filled and the best tech I got. It still works and imho my most prefered than whats "meta"

I tested out the fleet submarine with the rubber tiles vs the best destroyers I could make and they still demolish. Even with double the ic invested a fleet of sub hunting destroyers barely put a dent in the sub fleet.
