That Montemayor video that got posted last thread (and which I had posted in a previous one) really put things into perspective. While he definitely was indecisive, his cautiousness was not without merit. Had the situation been different, it would have been considered a strength of his.

Funny enough, the guy who came up with the flawed Midway plan, Yamamoto, get's presented as the military genius shackled by IJN bigwigs by Japanese media.

>>21303101
And if he succeeded, he would have been hailed as a god of war. This shit is common in every military. You win, you take the credit, you lose and you blame the guy closest to the conflict zone.

>>21303155
I still don't know what he did well to deserve his post.

>>21303155
It was probably the assassination.
If he had survived till the end of the war, he might not have been romanticized the way he did.

>>21303133
Furutaka is really thirsty for the dick here.

>>21303117
The problem is nips are still smearing him in mainstream media decades later. Guys like the US Pearl Harbor commander who got the same treatment were at least eventually vindicated.
>In the 1965 film In Harm's Way, Kimmel was portrayed as a victim of unfortunate circumstance by actor Franchot Tone. The 1970 film Tora! Tora! Tora! portrays Kimmel, played by actor Martin Balsam, in a sympathetic light: a capable commander operating in an environment plagued by poor communication, inadequate training and systemic unreadiness.

>>21303160
This guy draws cute stuff when it isn't piss giantess or vore

>>21303116
Well, yeah. But Yamamoto was also in charge for Pearl Harbor, which was a huge success.

>>21303173
It's that plus his early successes were used so heavily for propaganda that the idea of him as a great commander was just too stuck in people's heads for the facts to dislodge it.

>>21303191
>Pearl Harbor
>huge success

>>21303191
>Pearl Harbor, which was a huge success.

>>21303160
I love this guy's ducks

>>21303189
Eh? I've never seen any of that

>>21303191
>huge success
Pearl Harbor is seen as one of WW2 biggest military blunders. The whole point of the attack was to delay the USN so the IJN can form a defensive parameter, but that failed since the USN went right on the offensive, taking the Solomon Islands a few months later.

It was a huge success for the Japanese because anime was born.

>>21303191
It was a success but considering his real target was the carriers it wasn't that huge.

>>21303133
Have these guys even found USN ships? It always seems to be IJN

>>21303142
Big fish.

>>21303207
Relatively. They sank their primary targets, the ships moored at battleship row, and destroyed the planes on the runway.
Sure you can run around with hindsight and whine about muh carriers, but the nips got the battleships.

>>21303222
They found Hornet and Juneau I think which were a pretty big deal. There's more missing nip wrecks to find than burgers ones though.

>>21303222
https://paulallen.com/Indepth/Petrel/#discoveries

>>21303222
They found Hornet and Wasp this year. Their main target was always the USN ships while finding IJN ships along the way.

>>21303240
Most of the battleships came back into action.
They also failed to take out the fuel dumps.

>>21303221
It might have been successful as a sneak attack, but it failed in its intended goal. The fact that it was the Japanese throwing bodies at the Guadalcanal meat-grinder a few months after the attack, showed the Japanese Military completely abandoning their defensive strategy.

>>21303222
They found all of the US carriers that weren't Yorktown. If they wanted to find only Jap ships they would be looking for the Midway carriers.

>>21303191
While Pearl being a success is debatable what is important is the way it was presented to and perceived by the Japanese, which was basically as the second coming of Tsushima. That's what bought Yamamoto his indestructible reputation.

>>21303252
Their main targets were always ships, specifically carriers then battleships.

>>21303261
So that's why he didn't share the blame for Midway. Hara in his book thought Yamamoto was unsuitable for his position.

>>21303252
>Most of the battleships came back into action.
Well what do you think was going to happen when you sink ships in a shallow harbor? The point was to knock out the battleships long enough to pressure the US into some kind of a peace deal.
>but the US still retaliated
Yeah of fucking course they did. Even Yamamoto didn't think the plan was going to work, but he thought it was their best option.

>>21303276
Are they still making fun of Ugume's ships looking like they were from an 2000s eroge?

>>21303239
Oh

>>21303271
No, it was to keep the USN from stopping the IJN from expanding their Pacific island defenses. The whole plan was to bring the USA into a war of attrition, fighting island to island before they got sick of fighting and ask for peace.
Guadalcanal saw the Japanese give up that strategy completely, and it was Yamamoto who decided to imitate that military blunder too.

>>21303261
With that reasoning, every battle should venerate their commanders.

>>21303269
>YFW Shigure becomes the flagship instead Yamato in the new anime.

>>21303282
It's only going to get funnier if the new ones look to be in the same style

>>21303294
I like how the IJA representative is pissed.

>>21303293
It was a stupid strategy. The US doesn't do peace deals. Look at Abe Lincoln and the American Civil War. And I say that as a security researcher from Asia.

>>21303294
Only if you want to create a new Caesar or are running a military dictatorship.

>>21303303
They do if they don't give a shit about the conflict i.e. Vietnam. Problem was attacking them made them give a shit.

>>21303297
The potential Tachibana Hibiki lookalike seems fun.

>>21303303
Yamamoto should've known better, he even went to America to study.

>>21303293
Yeah, but I didn't want to get that far into it. Yamamoto and the entire Japanese high command underestimated the US by a long shot and they paid dearly for it.
Though their plan may have worked if the US didn't have the ability to shit out as many Fletchers as the Japanese could build of all ships.

>>21303318
If he was anything like the average Asian student I see on campus then he spent 100% of his time studying in his dorm room and had 0 meaningful interaction with the locals.

>>21303293
>No, it was to keep the USN from stopping the IJN from expanding their Pacific island defenses.

Just what the fuck they were thinking when they came up with that plan.
>our biggest weakness is our lack of shipping and inability to defend the few cargo boats we have
>lets come up with a plan that will stretch our supply lines to their absolute limits and give yank subs plenty of chances to strike against our shipping

>>21303329
>He also opposed war against the United States partly because of his studies at Harvard University (1919–1921) and his two postings as a naval attaché in Washington, D.C., where he learned to speak fluent English. Yamamoto traveled extensively in the United States during his tour of duty there, where he studied American customs and business practices.

>Should hostilities once break out between Japan and the United States, it is not enough that we take Guam and the Philippines, nor even Hawaii and San Francisco. To make victory certain, we would have to march into Washington and dictate the terms of peace in the White House. I wonder if our politicians, among whom armchair arguments about war are being glibly bandied about in the name of state politics, have confidence as to the final outcome and are prepared to make the necessary sacrifices.

He knew, he just chose poorly.

>>21303342
Both the Americans and the Japanese had bought into the idea of fleet submarines. Difference is that the US had a commander of the Pacific that was a former submariner and remembered how people used them in WW1 while Japan did not.

>>21303358
He overestimated US resolve, and was the architect of his own undoing.
If the IJN had not attacked Pearl Harbor to break USA's spirit, and only attacked European holdings, FDR would be taking a massive gamble declaring war.

>new tweets
still no event date or hints

>>21303384
iirc the higher ups said that if he didn't attack the US, they'd do it themselves, due to the whole trade embargo thing.
And then to make matters worse the declaration of war came in AFTER the attack on Pearl Harbor happened.

>>21303293
That wasn't their plan and it was obvious to them a war of attrition wouldn't be viable since they were already desperate for fuel. What you're describing is the plan B they fell back on after they failed to settle things quickly.

The main goal of war with America was to kick western influence out of Southeast Asia so they could secure resources to fuel their military. They thought their attacks on the Philippines and China would provoke an American attack, so they wanted to make America give up on Asia and focus on Europe. They expected the Germans to win there. Of course a lot of officers didn't believe any of that would work, but it was still the official grand strategy. People who didn't like official strategies tended to get assassinated.

The whole claim about nips totally planning to declare war before attacking feels bit weak considering that they also had done this whole surprise attack against major port before declaration of war shit back during Russo-Japanese War.

>>21303409
>They thought their attacks on the Philippines and China
You mean the Dutch colonies right? Phillipines was still an American colony they were going to let go of by 1950 but not any earlier than that.

>>21303442
Some Japanese Historians agree with you. Didn't the Japanese also attack the British two hours before declaring war too?

>>21303409
No, the whole defensive parameter strategy was the main one from the get go. It was one of the ways Yamamoto sold his Midway plan, claiming he would increase Japans defenses by stretching it further East.

>>21303442
It does seem weak, but considering that Yamamoto had spent a lot of time in America it would make sense. Although the Russians didn't have the will, or really the capacity to fight on, so it's plausible they all thought that a sneak attack would work a second time.
But they left out the truly important part of actually winning the battles they fought.

>>21303384
US civilians certainly didn't give a shit about The Philippines, Japan should have just kept taking over SEA islands and left it at that.

>>21303222
It was literally one of their main mission to find USN lost ships' resting place. IJN was a bonus.

>>21303465
Russia would have stomped the Japanese if their commanders weren't stupid as shit during that war.
The Russian army outnumbered the IJA by a lot, and most battles would have gone to them if they were more aggressive.

>>21303448
Yeah, their colony in HK.

>>21303494
>military force would have won if they weren't dumb
Genius, anon. They could have won the Winter War too.

>>21303494
The Russian populace was also in a shit place and pretty much everyone was demoralized by then and it only got worse. Just by pure numbers they were fine, but logistically and morally they were completely fucked, it's a miracle that the Romanovs weren't thrown out earlier.

>>21303505
But Soviet btfo IJA just a day before Poland get invaded.

>>21303512
Soviets also got Finland territory from the Winter War ;)

>>21303443
"They" referred to Japan. The fact that the Philippines were still an American colony is why Japan thought any Japanese attack on the Philippines would mean full scale war with America. The war in China had already lead to the oil embargo, and they believed the supply cutoff meant America was expecting war. They thought that leaving the Philippines untouched would result in having Japan's supply lines cut off.

>>21303455
I'm going to have to ask you for a citation. By Midway plan, you're not referring to plans for the battle of Midway, but instead a pre-war plan to capture Midway, right? They didn't make a move to capture Midway at the same time they attacked Pearl even though that would've been the best time to do it if it had been a core target of their plan all along.

>>21303512
I wouldn't call barely winning BTFO

He said Russia was incapable of continuing, which was false.
Russia still had an enormous amount of manpower, and was more industrialized. It would have been Japan who would have been incapable of continuing the fight.
They had burned themselves out before the war ended, completely draining its reserves, and its economy was on the verge of collapsing.

>>21303541
Yeah, but the Russian people were going through their first sets of riots. Their army, while big, was in shambles. Their navy was on the bottom of the ocean. And Theodore Roosevelt had a political investment in the war.
Sure the Russians could have won, but it would have taken much longer and very well might have sped up the downfall of the Tsars. It was easier to just take the L and pretend the whole thing never happened.

So many armchair admirals doing their favorite hindsight theorycrafting. If you all were real admirals in the IJN, you all would've held your tongues unless you enjoyed several black eyes from your superiors.

>>21303619
That's pretty common for places where the weather is so warm they don't need to have functional governments with large granaries to survive the winter. It's also common for islands that can rely on the sea to protect them from foreign invasion. They didn't know they needed a navy until it was too late, and it takes centuries to build a culture.

>>21303669
Nope. That's why it didn't matter. The burgers really only cared about using their harbor so Manila got nice and developed but the rest was left as is. Whole country was basically a single city-state surrounded by tribal villages.

>>21303666
Well, maybe they don't have centralized power like Meiji emperor.

>>21303681

As someone who took a year of hiatus, I wanna know how the touch mechanic "ruined" the game.

Very heavily encourges you to use 3 specific ships, where before you'd merely be heavily encourage to use 3 specific ships.

>>21304588
It didn’t unless you hate 1920s battleships being relevant that much.

>>21304588
It didn't. Unless it spreads from muh biggu seben out to other ships.

>>21304588
It saved Nagato from wasting away anything.

>>21304588
It made you use formations you've never thought about using.

>>21304592
It only encourages you to use three different ships as the flagship.

>>21304596
>Unless it spreads from muh biggu seben out to other ships.

It should, there are far better boats for touches than maymay 6+1.

>>21304588
If giving a special super attack to a handful of ships ruined the game, then Kitakami and Ooi killed it back in 2013.

Warspite Touch when? Bismarck Touch when? Iowa Touch when? Yamato Touch when? Hiryu Touch when? Zuikaku Touch when? Poi Touch when? I-19 Touch when?

>>21304609
Touch was implemented to make shit slow battleships relevant. I can't think of more than maybe of handful of other ships that would need something like that.
Unless you want ships that already have good, if not great stats to get a touch purely because they actually did something in the war. Then fuck off that's a dumb idea.

>>21304588
Some people are just butthurt that BBs they don't like get it or that BBs they do like don't get it.

I want a destroyer to rape me and take my first time in the most humiliating fashion.

>>21304621
>>Touch was implemented to make shit slow battleships relevant.

There is nothing wrong with boats that were irrelevant IRL being irrelevant in KC.

>>21304588
Nelson Touch is absolutely god send in 5-5 now that it's buffed, Nagato in single fleet, not so much. Also touch is broken in combined fleet, but we'll see if Tanaka would counter it with Abyssals.

>>21304620
Big Sebbun only.

>>21304639
>but we'll see if Tanaka would counter it with Abyssals.

Don't you worry, sooner or later a new beefed up version of Re will show up and have her own Re Touch.

>>21304631
Thankfully this is why you'll never be in charge of anything even remotely important.

>>21304643
Meme Sebbun can get rekt, there is no point in clinging to bunch of old grannies in this era of modern 16 and 18-inch battleships.

>>21304639

There is nothing wrong in expanding that practice further even if it makes the precious nip big 7s look like shit.

Why is she called Asashio if she doesn't have any ass?

>>21304665
>Line Ahead touch
>It's an ASW attack

>>21304670
If Tanaka actually listened to your shit logic, our fleets would be failing events until Iowa came out.

>>21304665
That could be bad, since it forces you to use other formations on Pre-boss nodes.

>>21304672
And she doesn't wear a sash either.

Pretty strange that japs still cling onto muh biggu sebbun desu. One would had thought that Hotels would had more or less completely killed their appeal.

>>21304687
Because strangely enough, the pig gaijins worship hotels more than them.

>>21304687
Hotels just lack the sex appeal of Nagatos

And this all could had been avoided if Tanaka hadn't been so eager to shill boats were pretty shit all things considered.

>>21304670
Most of those still have uses and are far better than they really should be. If you really wanted to sit down and compare everyone, most ships in KanColle get better chances than their historical counterparts. Almost like that's the theme of the game.

>>21304670
If anyone was actually paying attention to your shit logic we would have been fucked six ways from Sunday until the Americans showed up.
And wow what a shocker! we weren't.

>>21304687
Hotels look like fat Iowa knockoffs. Nagatos however have their own style and aren't expensive as shit.

>>21304693
Dunno, Hotels have.

Nigger, they don't even have the same hull shape.

Nagatofags sure get triggered when they're reminded that those 2 were utter garbage by WW2.

>>21304687
It seems perfectly natural that the meme sentai team would get the goofy touch attacks.

>>21304710
Nobody said that they were shit and nobody was defending them.
So what are you upset about?

>>21304715
So will we see Big 5 Touches then or is that group too obscure for Tanaka?

>>21304715

>>21304722
That's a burger meme. Tanaka is only concerned with nip memes.

Guess that is one way to sell those miniature Nagatos, just claim that she is part of some special club and hope that people forget about her less than stellar career.

>>21304705
>stretched out QE
If you really want to go that far, couldn't you just call them oversized South Carolinas?

>>21304730
How about the Super Torpedo Rangers then? They could use some Touching up to in an attempt to boost up their failing popularity.

>>21304747
>hope that people forget about her less than stellar career.
>implying people who buy that kind of thing care about careers
Oh anon, how naive you are. I've got a friend who'd buy anything with the name Lexington on it just because he likes the inter-war convert. I mean shit, Lex did nothing during her career but power a small city during winter and then scare off the japs before being scuttled.

>>21304753
They're already strong and popular enough, honestly, even if they've been falling off.

>>21304750
The parallels between QEs and Nagatos are stronger.
>both trimmed down the amount of turrets to 4
>both used the space opened up by previously mentioned trimming to mount bigger engines and thus creating a faster boat
>both used bigger guns than the previous class
>both moved towards using oil instead of coal (QEs being completely oil using while Nagatos carried more oil than coal unlike previous nip BBs)
>lookswise nagatos are more similar to QEs with their double turrets, hull mounted casemates, 2 clearly separated stacks, and tripod mast while SDs were planned to have triple turrets, superstructure mounted casemates, trunked together funnels, and lattice masts

Plus there is that whole thing with nips still basically religiously copying what bongs did during late 1910s (see basically all IJN CLs built before 30s for another example).

Do racists play this game?

>>21304783
Well I was using South Carolina because she was the first dreadnought to use the classic 4 centerline turret configuration. not hard to do when you're the 2nd dreadnought type battleship ever built
Plus a lot of those similarities are shared between a lot of ships that start a "new generation" of ships. Y'know it's a pattern that everyone followed and it's not surprising that they're similar.

>>21304783
He said South Carolina, my dude. He's talking about these. They were the first burger dreads. If I remember right they were actually designed before Dreadnought herself was but took longer to get built. They introduced the superfiring main battery arrangement a bunch of following BB classes used, including the QEs and Nagatos.

>>21304792
I hate the niggers and I play this

>>21304798
>>21304801
Yeah my fuck up, saw South and my mind instantly went SoDak.

>>21304804
Terry Davis plays Kancolle?

>>21304805
>saw South and my mind instantly went SoDak.
No problem. Used to see Carolina and assume everyone meant North Carolina instead of South.
But you're still half right, they do bear a slight resemblance to the QEs. But you'd have to be in the air and kind of at a distance to really notice it.

>>21304812
Coincidentally, you'll notice that ONI has given foreign ships American style hull numbers.
ONI has Valiant & Queen Elizabeth as well as Nagato & Mutsu marked down as BB-9 and 10 for their respective countries.

>>21304801
>Parallel to but independent of her conception was the American South Carolina, in many ways equally revolutionary. She introduced a superfiring main battery, a design economy which gave her a better-protected broadside equal to that of her British contemporary on about 3,000 long tons (3,000 t) less displacement.
Honestly the only reason everyone called them Dreadnoughts instead of South Carolinas is it was easier to say and a cooler name.

>>21304820
What's with those gay looking wire towers?

>>21304820
Dreadnought also came out first, but I reckon that if SC beat her they'd still say Dreadnoughts because it's just easier.
And the Americans already named a ship type after a ship. The ever "useful" Monitor.

>>21304824
Burger designers wanted to make sure if anyone made a game featuring personified warships in the future their girls would have fishnet stockings to make them look sexy.

>>21304824
The idea was that a single round could knock out a tripod tower. Therefore if you had a dozen poles wrapping around in a cylindrical fasion you'd have a much harder time knocking the towers down.
Problem was the towers were fucking dogshit, even a gentle breeze would knock them over.

>>21304824
The idea was shells could pass through without destroying the mast helping them last longer under fire. It didn't really work so they eventually stopped doing it.

>>21304824
They're lighter and sexier than tripod ones even if that comes with increased risk of collapsing.

Best DDs.

As well as providing a benchmark for the fledgling USN naval aviation division on how not to do damage control on a carrier.

>>21304998
No shit, read the thread

>>21304999
because Amerimutts were too slow

If Dreadnought would had been called Princess Royal would dreadnoughts been called "princesses" or "royals"?

>>21305004
People probably would have just kept calling them battleships. They kind of did anyways. Dreadnought was used because it was cool.

>>21305095
If you only get like one medal a month it would take 9 years to get all the blueprints required for all blueprint remodels

>>21305095
It will be about four years to finish all nip DD classes as long as we get 1-2, leaning to 2, per event in future events. That's probably not going to happen though, especially with the Matsus coming.

Heh, only two Kageros and two Ayanamis/Flight II Fubukis left to add too. If only Tanaka would concentrate more on completing ship classes instead of adding new ones...
>>21305085
Arguably, one could divide the ducks up into separate sub-classes, like how Fubuki- and Ayanami-classes are considered separate in-game.
Flight II Akizukis start at Fuyutsuki, with the difference being the removal of certain parts of their superstructures and slimming down of the hull to save on material costs.
Flight III begins at Michitsuki, which involves the overall ship being reduced to "the bare minimum of materials used to create a combat-functional destroyer".
