Loved the video PhlyDaily! That Kamikaze Attack at Timeframe 20:40-20:50 added a bit of ahistorical flavor but not so much as to be like a "What if" like battle. I'm watching this on the 78th anniversary of the most important part of the Guadalcanal Campaign, the night/day that the Japanese Navy forced us out of the New Georgia sound. A battle that had so many Allied casualties that it earned the nickname "Iron Bottom Sound". American casualties are as follows: • 3 New Orleans class Heavy Cruisers (USS Astoria (Design 1), USS Quincy and USS Vincennes (Design 3)) • 2 Atlanta class Light Anti-Aircraft Cruisers (USS Atlanta CL-51 and USS Juneau CL-52) • USS Laffey (Benson Class, DD-459) and 4 Other Destroyers Allied casualties included the loss of the HMAS Canberra.I Also, with the loss of Juneau were all five Sullivan brothers from Waterloo, Iowa. Apparently, four of them were at their posts during the battle while the fifth and youngest of the group was in sick bay. They had just gotten news that the wife of the youngest brother was about to give birth and they were waiting on the news whilst still performing their duties. When the Juneau was sinking, the four older brothers got to the life boats and then remembered that the fifth was in sick bay, went back for him, and by then the ship was so far gone and the fifth brother was so badly injured from shrapnel (I think?) that they all decided to stay together and go down with the ship. The clause that is commonly referred to as "The Sullivan rule" to this day, was already in place at that time, but because of this instance, it is, even now, adhered to with strict measures in order to ensure that something like this wouldn't happen again. Would love to see you try this part of the Guadalcanal Campaign on for size though, wouldn't hurt to have the retaliatory attack on the Japanese fleet the following night too.

Excellent movie. Loved the graphics. Loved how formations were used and communications were actually cool. Great choice of fellas to participate. Got kinda choked up thinking of what my Grandfather went through as a antiair gunner on those ships. Bravo.

[@Foxik58]

Thinking that players have to make such events while gaijin does sHoOt a rOcKeT iNtO sPaCe mIlIoN tImEs tO gEt a vOuChEr make me sad. Gaijin should fire half of its crew and hire these lads

[@plague6566]

Not should, *NEEDS*

[@alfie2891]

Yes

[@tomekfranciszek9237]

Tbf its better that players are doing the events themselves, if Gaijin had to organize them it would have to be public. The thing with public events like that, it would have no organization or coordination whatsoever. It would be just a shitfest of griefers, try hards and just shitposters in general, you wouldnt see one squadron in formation. A player community can organize themselves and check each other out to play by the rules, also they might enjoy role playing like this.

11:47 - 14:35 is the level of detail I would love to see in standard video game campaigns or movies

[@niixodus]

Its cool how this is all unscripted, yet historical. It adds a lot of context to how the battle would play out if it happened again. Maybe poor planning on the Japanese part or amazing planning on the US part? So insightful to see how unknown the result of the battle would be for the people fighting it. Absolutely amazing

[@onelyone6976]

IRL I think that when the Japanese scout planes had spotted the US fleet the japanese made the fateful decision to not engage the american fleet and once the bombers were off from the Kido butai the americans striked and the result was 3 japanese carriers burning and sinking

[@xxGravyBabyxx]

It reality, it was all luck as well. The U.S Navy got lucky finding those carriers, if not then midway would of been another disaster

[@evoluxman9935]

Watch the amazing video "Midway from japanese perspective". It really shows that the japanese were kinda screwed from the beginning to be honest. They did the best they could. (Also they had some bad luck and sometimes poor training, but with the information they had, and the mindset in which they were, you could replay the battle 50 times the result would almost always be an american victory)

[@Ko_Kasumi]

@@evoluxman9935 The biggest problem training wise is Japan had pretty poor damage control on ships, you can tell that just by seeing how many hits it took to sunk the Japanese Carriers vs the US Carrier

[@mashedxpotats]

@@xxGravyBabyxx The US navy knew the japanese were coming, and placed themselves in an ambush position. The only luck was the IJN believing that they once again had the element of surprise, with the USN carriers a week away at Pearl.

[@thomashisted5984]

Just for a bit more of a historical context, make a bristol Beaufighter fight the bombers instead, hurricanes and spitfires rarely attacked German bombers for the majority of the battle of Britain. Also, night flights are cool, like the idea!

[@ryanfreebody6881]

@@thomashisted5984 Hurricanes were mainly attacking bombers when the Spitfire arrive, for the fact they were slower than both the Bf 109 and Spitfire, plus they were absolute gun platforms with wings. The main time they would take on fighters later on during the battle of Britain, was when they were being bait and dragged a Bf 109 away, for a spitfire to swoop in behind and shoot the Bf 109 down.
