Ohhh Jingles, never change old man!! Theseus slew the Minotaur, Perseus slew Medusa and rescued Andromeda. Guess it's not only World of Warships content that you get wrong eh?

[@the_tactician9858]

To be fair Theseus and Perseus sound familiar enough, as do Minotaur and Medusa, to mix them up if you are only sidelings aware of Greek Mythology. Given the Old Man has had his last education 30-odd years ago it's not too surprising he mixed things up.

[@jaredthehawk3870]

She also never got the chance to fly F4U Corsairs off her deck either.

[@JohnCBobcat]

"Cross-drop" was a common WW2 torpedo plane tactic. Two attacking groups splitting up and converging on the bows of a target ship, ideally about 90-120 degrees apart, and dropping a line-abreast pattern of torpedoes. That way, if the ship turned into one pattern to "comb the wakes" and thread between them, they'd be roughly broadside to the opposing pattern, and if they continued straight, they'd get hit along both sides. In the US it's known as "anvil" attacks, not sure if the Royal Navy air arm had a term for it or what that might have been.

[@jcorbett9620]

Jingles, Jingles, never change! lol 3:00 "the only ships he's not spotted are the DD and sub" The first ship he spotted (and the one that probably first spotted his aircraft) WAS the Sub. The other ship he'd not spotted at this point, was the enemy CV.*edit* Witchita.

[@hectopascal799]

What an absolutely Jingely comment. He had actually spotted the enemy CV at 2:45, the only ship he didn't spot until his return to the right flank was the Wichita.

[@jcorbett9620]

@@hectopascal799I stand corrected. I'd seen the Sanzengs bomber squadron but missed the CV itself later. That's the problem when you watch Jingles videos. Watch enough of them and for long enough and "The Jingles Effect" is catching! lol

Oh boy Game of Throws featuring a division with 3 of my favorite tier 8 ships, this is going to be interesting

I will say that the team/platoon/division seemed to well co-ordinate with each other, and that definitely did help.

[@chrisharte4280]

Oh Jingles, never change you old Gnome. Thesesus slew the Cretan Minotaur while it was Perseus that slew Medusa and married and rescued Andromeda

[@elijahdaves1305]

He was flooding on that first damage control. I get why you might hold off in case you get set on fire, but flooding also limits mobility. Damge controling that gives you more mobility and even if you end up burning longer, if it lets you dodge a few more shells or even an entire salvo of shots from the BB behind you it makes more sense to opt for the possible burning.

[@CENTURION.CARPATIC]

Who cares about the sub. That laughter is awesome and is worth any mistakes made. Keep it up Jingles!!!

"Let's hope that doesn't come back to bite him in the ass." Jingles making sure that if any of us have fallen asleep during the video we still have ample occasions to mark this off our bingo cards.Foreshadowing, what foreshadowing?

[@ivolol]

Funny, I'm listening to the tin cans book you recommended where a simultaneous cross drop is described as an extremely effective tactic used on one of the japanese cruisers at one point by a squadron of avengers, so it's hilarious to me that it must be "banned" in a naval warfare game

[@tonyswan6834]

ANOTHER Awesome Vid ! Thanks again Jingles and hope your feeling okay!!

[@old_guard2431]

I have ARP Takao, which is the hysterical Japanese anime chick version of the Atago, and it is a great ship. I run Mogami with the 155mm guns (Mogami Lite), and it is so much better than the newer tech tree light cruiser, Shimanto. Faster reload, better HE penetration (marginally), just a better ship. Kind of academic. This was a Tier VIII random battle. At least half my random battles in Tier VIII cruisers are Tier X or Starship, and Tier VIII cruisers are near useless. The bright side is that Bronze Ranked is Tier VIII, so I am running the many excellent cruisers that are near useless in Random Battles.

[@myopicautisticmetal9035]

You know, Jingles, Atago has the best angles for torpedoes of any IJN cruiser or at least it did. You talk like it's a Myoko Holy Shit!! Jingles said "Full duration fire" Not "Permafire", I love English! That was a throw for sure!

[@LukeKenobi1]

He even sees how he can basically throw the torps to the front, but still ignores it.

[@kristoffermangila]

I still believe that Wargaming should have made the Chokai, since out of the Takao class cruisers, Chokai retained its original superstructure, one of the most distinctive ever placed on a warship.

[@RedXlV]

@@kristoffermangila When the IJN CL line was added, Wargaming should've moved Mogami over to that line with only the 155mm guns, and added one of the Takaos as the replacement tier 8 for the CA line.

[@Naeron66]

Jingles moment - "He hasn't spotted the whole enemy Submarine". Actually Jingles he spotted it early on, is was about the 3rd thing he spotted and as it was on the surface it was probably what spotted him as it was about 4 1/2 km closer to him than the Mainz and 7 1/2 KM closer than the Rooke.

[@uh60rider2000]

[@Fitzwalrus06]

The Skyraider was literally a flying dump truck. It could carry a phenomenal variety of ordinance, and at the end of WW2 could deliver on one engine the same bombload a B-17 did with four engines (although not with the same range as the Fortress, obviously.)😮

Episode 404 and he leads with throw not found. Jingles, don't change.

[@juankovacs6033]

The FIRST ship spotted by him was the sub 😂

[@testaccountpleaseignore2653]

In this case at least, there's a couple of factors allowing for carrier sniping. 1. The Sanzang actually has pretty bad AA by carrier standards (it only has a 3.5 km range) 2. The Yorktown (and the new line of "support carriers" in general) are very good at sniping other carriers since they have two tactical squadrons which don't care too much about AA.

[@jarrodkopf6813]

1:03 Acually Jingles, you were thinking of Perseus as he was the one who slew Medusa. Theseus was the one who slew the Minotaur in the Labyrinth. 21:26 Actually Jingles, the USS Yorktown is actually one of the new "escort" carriers with the Americans getting access to air-dropped smokescreens and the Japanese receiving air-dropped mines.

[@gorgonbert]

Nice win

[@Belgianbanshee]

Actually Jingles, you gave there the easiest solution to the spotting problem. Add a squadron of spotting aircraft to the CV. Maybe even let them have an ability to keep an area spotted without the possibility of attacking and nerve the spotting ability of the attacking squadrons

[@1worldgaming18]

[@winoodlesnoodles1984]

Let's talk about the Yorktown. Damaged in the Battle of the Corral Sea and reported sunk by the Japanese navy, her crew limped her back to Pearl Harbor. The damage was estimated to take 2 weeks to complete. Due to the impending Battle of Midway, repairs were wrapped up in 72 hours. During the Battle of Midway, the first attack from Japan on US carriers found Midway. Once again, the Yorktown was reported sunk. Her crew were so good, Yorktown was combat functional within an hour. The second wave of attack planes on carriers found Yorktown again. Once again, Yorktown was reported sunk. This time was telling. Two such attacks created a situation in which the captain was forced to give the order to abandon ship. However, she didn't sink. The fires burned out and she was still afloat. The next morning, the decision was made to attempt to tow Yorktown to Pearl Harbor. A Japanese sub spotted Yorktown in tow and dumped torpedoes into the easy target. Once again, Yorktown was reported sunk. This time however, the torpedos did too much damage. The Yorktown was deemed unsalvageable and finally sunk a day after the torpedo hits. So, when you are complaining about carriers being unsinkable in WoWs, this is an exception, but Yorktown was nearly unsinkable. The ship and crew deserve tons of credit. It took and survived several pounding before going down. That was damage other ships were spared.
