      Believe me, in my opinion every officer who court martial that man should be lined up and shot as traitors, every officer who let the distress call go without acting should have their rank revoked, be dishonorably discharged, and any awards and commendations taken away as well as jail time. What happened was criminal and in a morally just society should have had firing squads.

      The commander of the so-called "Lost Battalion", in WWI, similarly committed suicide years after the war. Due to guilt over losing men.
      This kind of thing seems to be somewhat regular with retired officers who's units were put in bad situations & lives lost under their command.

    My wife's grandfather was one of the 317 survivors.
    Archie Calvin Farmer, 87, of Keller, Texas, formerly of Hot Springs, Ark., passed away on Sunday, March 14, 2010.Mr. Farmer was a survivor of the USS Indianapolis, which was torpedoed by a
    Japanese submarine in the Philippine Sea and sank in 12 minutes. Of
    1196 men on board, approximately 300 went down with the ship. The
    remainder, about 900 men, were left floating in shark-infested waters.The survivors were spotted four days later with only 317 men still alive.
    This was the greatest single loss of life at sea in the history of the
    U.S. Navy. 65 years later, Archie Farmer passed away on Sunday, March
    14, 2010 at 87
    God rest your soul Archie.

Since Tier 6 through 8 are so obviously going to be Queen Elizabeth, Nelson, and King George V, I really hope they made a separate battlecruiser branch on the Royal Navy tree so that a ship as iconic as Hood can be a non-premium, and so that British battlecruisers in general get represented.

      Almost. The Catalina did disobey standing orders to land in the water and rescue survivors, 58 of them, more than a few tied to the wings with paracord. It was the USS Doyle who turned on their searchlights, while stationary (so as to avoid running over any survivors) in order to serve as a beacon for other rescue ships, in an area where a cruiser had already been sunk by a submarine. Brave men all.

    Shaw's performance is, indeed, excellent in that scene, and throughout the movie. Due to the problems the shooting suffered (mainly due to the malfunctioning mechanical sharks) tempers frayed a few times on set, and Shaw's drinking didn't help. However, he redeemed himself in that scene, as he had taken Ray Gottlieb's script for it and reworked it himself, then delivered it in basically one take. Keep up the great work, Jingles!

      nepotism and scapegoating are ways of life in any old institution like the military. if you want a recent example, there's the story of the two F-15 pilots who attacked and shot down a pair of Mi-24 hinds flying in the no fly zone above iraq just after the first war. except that they were US Army Blackhawks. they wanted to kill something so bad they ignored all kinds of safety checks, performed one inadequate visual inspection (one of the pilots later saying he was sure it was a hind), then opening fire, and killing 24 americans and allies. the two pilots never saw the inside of a court room. the only one punished was a junior radar operator aboard the AWACS plane that oversaw the engagement. the air force even ignored a congressional subpoena for the pilots to testify.

    You should shoot ap shells at battleships if they're broadside on (expect with the smallest of guns). Just shoot the upper structure of the battleship and you will do more damage than you'll get with HE. Though it lacks the nice bonus of fires, if you want to reliablely damage battleships who are broadside on shoot the upper part with AP. Don't aim for citadels, because you will bounce.

  • @Hopelek
    @Hopelek 8 років тому +8

    Pensacola, once again I'm coming to her defence, she is more than a competitor to the Indi.
    She is a hard ship to play, but most rewarding when you get it right. In fact she is the one US cruiser I bought after reaching Des Moines, because I felt like there was more fun in her than any other cruiser (save maybe St. Louis and Albany).
    The way to play Pensacola is to constantly look at map and look for isolated targets, which are NOT Battleships. Whenever you are dealing with cruisers, load AP, her guns penetrate even at high angles and their citadel potential is awesome. Since there is a distinct lack of CVs I opted to get the gun fire modificaion which increases her accuracy even more, and you can get "laser like" shots even at extreme range.
    The second most important thing in Pensacola is learning how to aim. It might sound rough, but most people suck at aiming, because Pensacola's predecessors require only pointing guns in the vague direction of enemy and firing, if you miss it's no big deal, you have another salvo in 6 seconds or so, but in her, if you miss you're in trouble. From the 10 shells you fire 6 hits are a must, 8 should be a standard, if you're aiming at cruisers and BBs.
    Ok so now how to deal with each ship you may encounter.
    BBs. Avoid them if you can. If you can't, look at what tier that BB is, if it's lower or you can get plunging fire (DANGER, explained later) stick with AP. There are Colorados which citadel said Hi to my shells on more than one occasion, if closer load HE and ALLWAYS wiggle. Staying at exreme angles helps as well, but be careful not to sail too close, wait for a BB salvo, then turn around and continue to wiggle and wiggle and wiggle.
    Now to the danger. I have bounced BB shells in Pensacola. Don't ask me how, but it happened, however the most dangerous thing a BB can do to you (aside from you showing her broadside, which is your fault) is plunging fire. Any hit from above is a citadel. Doesn't matter where the shell hits, it will penetrate deep.
    Cruisers. Hunt those buggers down. Keep your angle and you can laugh at the enemy because they will not expect bounces from you (especially german cruisers are yummy) and BE PATIENT. It is no good to blow a salvo on an enemy who is turning away, look for broadsides and exploit them to the max. If you know where and how to aim you can get mutliple citadels in one salvo (usually 2) and after loosing 11K hp any cruiser would think twice about engaging you again.
    DDs. Anticipation is the key here. You can't reload your guns as fast as you want to, so load HE in advance. Then you have to learn to lead well. Don't zoom all the way in, use the mousewheel to get a bit further, since the DDs are so fast you might not see what he is doing, when you aim. Pensacola's guns are extremely accurate at closer ranges and she can (assuming that you are at angle where you can fire all your guns) sink a DD in 1 - 2 salvos or 3 salvos when using only foward guns. Pensacola is also suprisingly maneuverable and she dodges torpedoes like a boss.
    CVs. This is basic... Use AA consumable when there are TB in range and DON'T FORGET to set TB as main priority for AA, lastly turn like hell into them even if that means you have to expose your broadside (you're taking a chance with the enemy who is shooting at you versus a certanity of a torpedo hit).
    Lastly her secondaries are ok as well, especially if you take the captain skills that buff them (as well as AA), so if you are in trouble they might save you bum.
    Overall I am in love with this ship. She packs enough punch to be a threat to every ship she might encounter unlike NY or Baltimore who have to deal with much larger healthpools than Pensacola and their guns are not much of an improvement.

    • @miskatonic6210
      @miskatonic6210 8 років тому +1

      The problem with your great guide: Most of the time there IS no isolated target and you are a big fat visible target for everybody, so multiple enemys will go for you very soon. You are top priority for battleships, so good luck avoiding all of them. And proper aiming or waiting for the perfect shot is the last thing you can afford when targeted by multiple enemys.

    • @Hopelek
      @Hopelek 8 років тому +2

      This all is avoidable - at the start of the battle you simply can't go all ahead full, you have to stay at BB levels or as a second line cruiser, abusing your excellent accuracy. Jingles states that Indy is nimble and maneuverable and unfortuntely I can't compare her to Pensa (since obviously she isn't avalible yet), but from playing a lot of Pensacola, I can tell that you can and should dodge incoming shells from BBs. Once the big boys are duking it out between each other, you have multiple choices... Support your BBs agaist enemy BBs by providing HE hell and if you can reliably hit plunging fire, you can stay in AP mode. Second thing is hunting cruisers... Once someone is engaged with your other ships they are not likely to switch to you. Third is protect your BBs against destroyers - while Pensa doesn't have the radar, she has more turrets and can "spray" an area better than Indy. The only obvious drawback to Pensacola is her concealment raiting, which I simply can't comprehend... She has a light cruiser hull and practically a BB concealment raiting.. Why?

      Ah yes, the Pepsicola. The guns were nice but compared to other cruisers, it really became a matter of not being in line of sight of a battleship who wasn't in a BB duel. I play BBs primarily and I always turn my guns to a Pensacola because citadel penetrations from the front never get old and a decent salvo can one shot them. Sold it for the NO as soon as I could. It played better than I remembered from CBT but it isn't a ship I'd keep in my port. I'm liking the New Orleans better armor vs cruisers and radar abilities. Too bad CV players are a dying breed; I heard that the next patch is going to buff AA firepower along a broad spectrum of ships. Don't know how true that is, they frequently lie in chat. :P

    FYI, iChase had confirmation from a RU dev over the weekend that the armor was bugged and the ship sat too high out of the water, and that would be fixed before release - so the armor should perform much better than shown in the video - iChase as well said that if the armor bug was fixed, this ship would be well worth purchasing.

    A wee bit of trivia: these alleged shark attacks are far more likely to have been sharks feeding off the corpses of already dead sailors and a number of so called 'test-bites', whose wounds certainly can be fatal (and were in some cases), but are not to be mistaken as an attack.
    That said, the shark species most likely to have been the main perpetrator in the sinking of CA-35 is believed to be the oceanic whitetip shark, which is known to be very liberal in its choice of food and can descend into a feeding frenzy (due to the general lack of readily available food in the open ocean, so get what you can when you can). Whilst certainly still not even close to the much propagated killing machine stereotype (whitetips don't prey on humans, our low content in fats is an alien taste to most shark species and would be like a human biting into ... whatever alien stuff you don't typically bite into), a feeding frenzy on say drifting dead sailors is very likely to have been the cause for the much inflated horror stories about shark attacks on the surviving members of CA-35.
    Why might this be interesting to know? Because 'Jaws' is a bioeconomical disaster whose (umintended but nontheless tragic) misrepresentation and subsequent paranoid public reactions and shark hunts caused were an almost extinction-level event for shark populations worldwide.
    Also, don't eat sharkfin soup. It's bad for you (no really, it is, shark meat is rich in mercury and incorrectly processed meat is also rich in ammonia).
    Oh, and Jingles, actually ... there are sharks around in the british waters. Most of them a seasonal visitors, but that's not the point ... Jingles? Jingles, please put that oxygen tank away, Jingl-
