    Tarawa is definitely one of the most noteworthy and bloody battles of the war, but whenever I mention it to most people, they reply: "Tar-a-what-now?", "Tara, who?" In all likelihood, I had family who fought there with the 2nd Marines (or at least stepped onto the island), but my family did not bother to ask them about it--neither would they probably have wanted to say much about it.
    Good work on this! May people remember.

      Same here! That first mission threw me off as it was my first MOH game.
      Now I'm using Dev console commands (mostly just God mode: Dog) to get through cause good gosh it is hard to see them most of the time! But they can see you! And it's way more fun now! Feels like Doom almost going around, blowing foes away with a shotgun and bayonetting them.

    The Higgins boats were used in the battle. They miscalculated the tide and the Higgins got stuck on the reef. So the Marines had to wade 100+ yards are were just massacred. The high command actually thought they were going to lose this battle. The water buffaloes were the only ones to clear the reef and make it decently there to the beach but started to get picked off by artillery. The saving grace was the marines lucky enough to land by that bridge who used it for cover to stage the attack. Very bloody and the first introduction to amphibious invasion to the Americans. It’s why the started to utilize Amtracs more in the next invasion

      If you're wondering how to use the editor you have to select the GEM editor when you launch it or right click and launch it that way if you have it on steam. (also you can get mods on the workshop by just subscribing to them it's real simple starting out, and to turn the mods on you have to go into single player> options >mods and enable them..then launch the editor)

  • @jeffmattax
    @jeffmattax 4 роки тому

    Higgins were used as the main assault landing craft. Didn't have enough LVT (alligators) for the landing. The tide had not risen enough and the Higgins were stranded on the reef and the Marines had to wade some 600 yards onto the beach....bloodbath. In 76 Hours: 1,000 Marines K.I.A. 2,100 Wounded. The Japanese :4,700 KIA, less than 20 were captured.

Then to change the map clip first tick on the checkbox which says show map borders. Then some coloured lines will appear then u have to drag those line as far as u want the map. Then after doing it right click on the same preset u selected and set for all players.That will cut the map.
