Good video, from Singapore here. Good to see that naval and air battles in the Malayan Campaign in the Far East are having more attention in video games like these here.
For your information,this isn't the real Bombing of Force Z,this is a remastered mod that also came with different campaign where it have alternative version of the war. Here,instead of HMS Repulse and Prince of Wales,we see HMS Hood and Howe. Hood replaced Repulse since they are both Battlecruiser and Howe replaced Repulse since they are the same class. Also this might be inspired by the East Asia Squadron that the Malaya Garrison was requested.
fun fact: while in the command map, you can quickly select other units with Q/E, this in my opinion are more convenient than singlehandedly pick every units in the map Also great video as always
Sucks that the mod flopped due to the fact that it has many bugs, and was coded by a team of novice developers. The creator himself said that no further updates are planned for the mod. Good concept, but didn't go the right way.
I'll gaureente you Chinese Naval cadets are studying the whole Pacific theater and probably using a few of these simulations games as part of their training.
Look up the incident from, maybe 10 plus years ago between 5 Chinese fishing trawlers and a unarmed USN survey catamaran. This incident was described to me a year before it happened as a possible Chinese naval tactic but on a much larger scale.
i expected to see a lot more flak. like from inside the 6km. Wasnt this already radar-operated and electronically fire calculated anti-air gunnery in 42
