![]() Secondarily, whoever's currently doing the voiceover work REALLY needs a voice director. And it can't just be lumping actual sunk and withdrawn ships together, because that total was higher than three even before the force decided to withdraw as a whole. All the other aspects they were talking about for this operation just seem plain cool, and I'd love to see more in this vein in the future - night battles made up a fairly large part of the surface actions in the Pacific.Īs for the historical aspect, WG manages to make minor errors in their historical discussion again - the IJN only lost two ships, not three, during the battle. :P Yeah, yeah, the operation is not going to stick to precise ship numbers for any number of obvious reasons, but given tiering seeing a bunch of that specific T7 is a likelihood. Instead you'll just deal with a flood of torpedoes, since Shiratsuyus made up 3/6 of the IJN DDs at Empress Augusta Bay. (I'd say the name but I don't remember the full name) Not like that is bad, it is just the closest thing we may see compared to the multiple sea battles of Guadalcanal or the battle that this operation is based on. I know Tom Hanks is making a movie but that is more set in the Atlantic Convoys. The costs would obviously suck but you would think with some CG and some sets that a good movie would come. Surface warships are simply unrepresented in media compared to either their bigger cousins, the Battleships and Aircraft Carriers or submarines. I have no personal history other than the articles, Wikipedia, history books, and old WW2 books I read. It's just that being in a huge warship yet stuck in a confined space in the middle of the ocean without being able to know what is happening other than your orders given to you (at night) is a different experience that would be great for a movie. It's not like fighting a Tiger Tank with a Sherman, thousands of banzai charging Japanese soldiers, or watching you friends die from a landing craft from MG42s is horrific. ![]() Instead all we got are CG analysis, black and white, and navy movies that are either in the air or underwater. ![]()
