Sorry could not resist with that KanColle referrence.

Matthew Mayberry
Well, that's because the dodging didn't go so well.
to be fair he was fucked no matter what he did there
How did it take 3 torps tho
E d g y 4
LoL
Pronounced Ro-an-oak. LOL Just saying
Was about to comment the same
I like "row-an-oak" personally
it really depends where I live In NC on the VA line we don't even pronounce the A I think iv herd it used once with the A and it was a person who lived on the Virginia side of the Roanoke river
Row, row, row your Noke, gently down the stream....
Let's hope (for Jingle's sake) that there was never a U.S.S. Chincoteague or Assateague.
the fact you did not use the A are you sir from North Carolina
My grandfather was a boiler room chief on the USS Worcester. Served on her for the entire duration of the ships life. They stopped having reunions a few years ago because almost every other sailor that served on her is dead now
this was 2 years ago... see how the game exploded in ships like this, Colbert, Haregumo, Kitkaze, Smolensk, Kleber, Mogodor, Friesland, Daring......
This was 10 months ago. See how the game was raped by CV's, when even Worcester can hardly save herself from your average T10 CV.
@@AllAhabNoMoby I just got the FG Roosevelt for Steal, because this CV is SO OP... they are going to remove it from the store. I am a lousy CV player, but in my first game I got 4 torp hits on a turning away Moskva, and an 8 and 7 torpedo hit on a Thunderer. The 8-7 hoit was with 2 groups from the same squadron.
@@robertcras8151 he should remake these video in 2021 ... for science
@@AllAhabNoMoby game was not raped by cv's oh my god anti-wg complainers are so ... dumb
@@plutoidrepublic2765 Sorry to have upset you. The truth is painful I know.
me from the future: oh yea, this whas when it was still emberassing to be killed by cv secondaries
i think the rapid rise in performance and availability of surface to air missiles as well as the performance of jet aircraft in the 50ths contributed to the short service life of this class.
But US surface to air missiles were barely functional. As in failing to launch when ordered to as late as the Cuban Missile Crisis. Even once that was fixed, the original generation of semi-active missile seekers had the same problems as the UK Sea Dart and Sea Slug missiles had in the Falklands War and couldn't engage or keep lock against background clutter. While its true that the gun turrets could not keep up with the speed of jets as crossing targets, jets still had to straighten out and assume a collision course to release their weapons at which point they were still vulnerable to the DP guns.
US SAMs were pretty shit for a long time, hence why the Essex and Midway class carriers kept a good chunk of their arty even after the angled flight deck or helicopter overhaul. US Navy surface to air is only really adequate until we put SM into service in the mid 60s and Sea Sparrow in the 70s, then we finally had good anti-air on our ships. Terrier, Talos, and even Tartar were all utter shit, it was a good thing we had so many carriers to make up the difference :P
Oh look! A Minotaur with HE! Maximeme fire engaged!
British Captain: Took one to the rudder well we all know how this one ends
German Captain: Well now you Brits know how the Captain on the Bismarck felt
Bismarck got unlucky, Jingles just sucks at anticipating torp drops and maneuvering accordingly. :P
Watch Flamu's Worcester AA test video to see how it's done - 3 deplaned and sunk Hakuryus, with only minor DB damage and a single torp hit (because he got cocky near the end).
HerrRoehrich was meant to be a historical joke but your response made me laugh so hard 😂
Drop the E on Ronaoke
pronounced rowan oak...jingles
Ya but how does this ship do when there's no CV's? We all know that when you take your AA spec US Cruiser into the line up there's no CV's... and when you take your IJN destroyer into battle there's 2 CV's and they always find you! :P
19:06 oh really Jingles? Drop down to tier 4 and 5, and see if you still have that same opinion after a couple games. Still, that is why I love taking out my AA speced Hiei. Only at 12 points right now, but once i get 14 ... *evil laughter*
Well thats simply because once you reach T7 you get T9 AA and most drop out around T8 because they might as well go AFK or they spend much time and effeort to get good in CV's just so they might be not 100% useless as a T8 Cv in a T10 match
Texas with my AA-specced usn bb captain says hi?
True, the Texas has far superior AA, but in order to make the CVs target you so you can feast on their tears, you have to be fast enough to intentionally separate yourself from the pack, making it look like you are an easy target for them, can the Texas do that?
You can, it just takes a bit longer. It helps if you put something in chat saying "Oh, no.. CVs, and I'm a top tier BB! Please don't attack me!" Newbie CV drivers will fall for this. Filthy seal-clubbing CV captains won't.
Silverslicer, the Texas has the opposite advantage. It's so slow, noob carrier players think she's an easy kill. I've experienced it myself in mine. Never once has a carrier killed me, and rarely ever has a carrier had a squad come back unharmed - typically they're all down before they've finished turning around after the strike, if they've gotten that far. Although that AA Hiei sounds fun, may have to try it one day.
lol, I saw the title and immediatly thought USS Lea & Perrins
Best comment this week.
Just to make it clear, Worcestershire sauce is not made in Worcester, Mass. :)
>Still no USS Alaska
come on wargaming, we all want it, and would probably be willing to part with substantial amounts of cash for it
Eric Lee ikr
I wonder if it'd be a premium battleship, since the Alaska was pretty much a battlecruiser.
My best guesss would be that WG would put it as T7 battleships, same as hood. It would probably be similar to the scharnhorst. It would have worse armor, more accurate guns and insted of torps WG would give it something like radar or def AA
Ivan Buncic Alaska would be utter garbage as a tier 7 BB.
I disagree completly, it would be very fun BB to play if it's anything like scharnhorst. At least it would be better than making it a T10 cruisers like some idiots are saying.
Jingles your torpedobeats are astoundingly Jingles.
At least the torpedo protection is as overpowered as the AA on that ship. Looks like fun and engaging dynamic gameplay.
🤣 Jingles said North Korean pilots! You mean the ones with the very thick Russian accent? Those are "chinese"!
Thank you Jingles for pronouncing Worcester correctly. From a Massachusetts native.
Wing Hung Yuen I’m from Wakefield Massachusetts and he nailed it
I’m from Worcester England and can again confirm he pronounced it correctly !! Hi from england ..
Yeah, so many people get it wrong it's hilarious, I grinned a little when he said it correctly. I don't live in Worcester but I'm real close so yeah.
To bad he messed up Roanoke. Pronounced (Row-a-no-k) silent E
I could be wrong here, not actually being from there, but I think while Jingles got Worcester right he got Worcestershire wrong.
Besides hiding behind cover and raining hell on anyone who comes near a given cap circle, it seems like this type of ship would also be very good at screening a carrier or a battleship against air attack, and ambushing destroyers as well as using their excellent radar to help a friendly battleship or heavy cruiser spot targets in concealment.
A ship named after my home town...even if it's in the wrong country!!
Reporting in!
Sang Entar it's the Worcester from Massachusetts not England so it is in the correct country sorry mate.
I know, I said as much. It's clearly a US ship.
america TOOK the name Worcester that was already being used IN england.
a tyicaly american thing to do.
Yoko Oh no well you have to remember the northern section of the American east coast were settlers from England so they gave there settlements names that made them feel safe and at home in the new world: New York, new Jersey, and even the area it self New England. There is a reason behind our madness. Besides we didn't take it, we liberated it from British tryanny and oppression.
are planes still a thing? i thought nobody played carriers anymore
Ro Uh Noke
Long o, short u sound, long o
Not Ro Uh No Key
Roanoke, Virginia
Living in Roanoke, I agree.
I too came from the Commonwealth of Vagina, Matt A. We all did.
I always thought of it as RO an oak, but thats a small town in Texas as compared to a city in Virginia.
I was thinking that was what he was referring to, but he pronounced it so badly I wasn't sure.
"English is a funny language". Indeed it is. Its one of those languages where you pack too much meaning into a phrase much like one packs a score of sad make-up enthusiasts into a clowncar.
Roanoke, the town, has a fascinating history jingles. First English colony in Virginia, even before Jamestown. Lasted a few years, and then one day the supply ships show up, and the town is completely deserted, and no one has ever figured out what the hell happened.
Do you have a personal theory?
@@somebloke3869 Everyone has a personal theory. I think most of the settlers starved or died of disease and the survivors went off to live with the Natives. Since many of the native tribes were in later years decimated by disease themselves, this probably obscured the fate of the survivors.
It does look good, but going by wargaming logic the ships before it will be utter dog turds.
Lets hope they dont pull a Graf Zepplin on us.
Doing a good ol’ switcheroo
Oh, will we get a Jeeves soon then? :-o
Any one else thinking of "Jeeves and Wooster"?
And I will hate to play these ships.
Such a great series.
Note to Jingles. The US Navy today calls it NGFS "Naval Gunnery Fire support"
How are you going to shoot down planes with that dual purpose guns though?
Lore in game the guns shoot planes automatically, even if your already firing at ships
Ah I see. Thank you.
So, even if you are using full time your guns, with the cd cooldown etc... they will magically shoot¿? :S meh Then they just add the dpm from that guns to the overall anti AA guns and avoid to do any mechanic or animation to use those guns as AA guns...
Yes bad programming by WG
yea it a little odd to see, but from a game mechanic side of things it makes sense
HELL YES!!! I live in Worcester and I was soooo ready for you to mispronounce it hahaha made my day when you got it right.
eating dinner, hears notification, nutrients can wait.
Yeah, because is impossible to eat while watching.
ah, but you see, you nee two hands to watch a jingles vid
KRBLUS Why? Put your device in your lap or on the table.
Alllrighty Then! r/wooosh
I am relatively new to this channel and the game, but I would like to say, I do love the historical bits in your videos. My grandfather served on this ship in the Mediterranean Sea, not during the Korean War. This one certainly brings back memories of the stories he would tell me, as a child, of his time in the US Navy. Thank you for this.
Roanoke is pronounced with 3 syllables. Ro-uh-noak I only mention because you said something about pronunciation. I usually try my best to pronounce places and region specific words as the locals who live there do rather than what I think it is spelled. There are plenty of places out there that will confuse you for sure if you go by spelling. lol
Wish wargaming would Nerf the paper ships that never existed. Would only seem fair for sailing an non existent ship, just a sayin. 😀
thank for uploaded my replay :D ขอบคุณมากครับ
i run maximum DE as much as possible (maximum fire chance is 15%)
and this ship can build many things you can do such as IFHE+AA , full DE, full AA+MAA, AA+DE, AA+ability, range DE, she depends on your playstyles what you want to play Worcester
i wish i have 4 different US commanders for Worcester :joy:
uwu
:enterpat:
Thank you for finally telling me how the fuck you say Worcester.
The 25 dislikes are t10 CV players
Raident that would imply that there ARE 25 CV players....
well, thats true
Ridiculous amount of hits? Um, no, 300 is perfectly doable with a Des Moines. Ridiculous would be ~700
Matěj Šrámek this ship really looks like a worse Des Moines. The damage output is lower cause you can't cit and the small fire per minute difference isn't substantial enough to make up for terrible shell arcs and tiny guns
agreed, not to mention the fact that the turrets are gonna get knocked out super quickly if the Worcester meats other cruisers head on
Actually, you can citadel in Worcester against other cruisers. In point of fact, she plays alot like Atlanta that way. You hug islands, sneak in close to anything not a battleship, and feed them 8+ citadel broadsides every 4.5 seconds. So long as you're inside your flat trajectory distance, you will out DPM pretty much any other cruiser in an AP gun duel. This ship is going to be the loveletter that Atlanta drivers who can't get their grubby mitts on Flint will adore.
Hard to farm hits and damage on a cruiser when your team gets a huge early lead and the entire enemy team runs away before the halfway point.
Also, Worcester is going to be a far better DD hunter than DM. Better concealment means she can push caps more aggressively and not having to sacrifice DF for hydro lets her push DDs with less worry about torps.
@@karlbudde5906 well, yeah, the Worcester is a *light* cruiser. The Des Moines is a heavy cruiser!
Worcester is pronounced "Wooster"
Leicester is pronounced "Lester"
Meanwhile Manchester is pronounced in the expectable way...
Get your !@#$ together, english-speaking part of the world :D
Pavel Tobiáš you wot mate! How does cester and Chester sound the same one English?
Well how does -cester not sound at all i ask? :D
The accent in that region of the U.S. drops the r sound everywhere except before a vowel. Wooster is just the easy way to explain how it sounds, the sounds are there just laden with accent. I enjoy the fact that if you took an American from each region of the U.S and English from all around England and put them in the same room they would confuse the shit out of each other lol.
Don't forget Warwick is Warrick, but only in Old England. Greenwich is Grenich, Leominster is Lemonstir, Gloucester is Gloster.
Glostahhhhh
Worcester, pronounced Wooster. Leicester, pronounced Lester. Alcester, pronounced Alster. Gloucester, pronounced Gloster. And of course Cirencester, pronounced Cirensester. Because English.
Because Wiltshire ish :) Just don't mention the roundabouts in Swindon, lol!
For real fun, get them to pronounce Magdalene...
MAUD-lin?
simply have a trans-atlantican try a proper pronounciation of "Kurfürst" or if she vermakes it ingame the "seydlitz" I usually am happy if I can start my inner giggling after one minute
We have Magdalene college in the UK... He'd know how to say it.
Still think you should try bag deadlock. Your such an good player with carriers I bet you'd be great after a few go rounds.
All I can think about is Adam Sandler's skit 'Toll Booth Willie.' "Welcome to Wooster. Dollar twenty-five please."
What a shame that the proposed piecrete aircraft carrier ((of which there was an prototype built)) will apparently never be in the game....very very sad......😂
The Amazing Goldfish The thing would be bigger than the largest maps in the game. Add to it 40ft thick hull walls amd twin engine bombers, it makes for a very poorly workable ship.
Braddock Grimsley *correction, Habakuk was going to be capable of launching 4-engine bombers
Which would be extremely scary in-game
Lord Sylph didn't Know it was that large. Have heard the story of the piecrete block dumped in Churchill's bath for an demo. Maybe this would be great for an special event? Just seems a shame that there was an prototype built in Canada but not in game whilst you have paper warships in the game.
The Amazing Goldfish Because those paper ships are able to fit in evey map. Habakkuk would take up the length kf *two* maps. It's just too big to implement, and twin and four-engine bombers are a little too big for the game.
Braddock Grimsley could you imagine how scary having a wave of 4-engine bombers dropping 2k and 4K lb bombs on you would be?
To make this ship capable of firing in the open with no cover, WG could Make it move like a Destroyer.
Destroyers are hard to hit because there fast and small. But Cruisers are some what easy for there a good size and are kinda slower on the turn.
If you make the US CL Line capable of moving like a Destroyer, they could be able to fight at long ranges, provided that they get a range buff and long with a Huge speed buff on the shells velocity.
Year of the CV ... yeah right. Still, Should i go for the Hakuryu? I am at the Shokaku right now.
i stop at shokaku for like 2 years now, don't even dare to buy taiho...
They are doing a major rework of CVs where they are going to pretty much remove them from the game. They only reason I would buy them is so that you get the replacement for them. My presumption is they are going to give you first person control of squadrons.
Pfff.. I have a Taiho .. a new taiho and I can barelly kill a single ship because I get t10 matches and all, if not most of them are full AA or have an overpowered AA.. How can this be the CV year
im running kaga whenever mission demands a cv play, otherwise i stopped caring
Yes. But you will suffer against these cancerous AA cruisers.
My dad served on this ship during the Korean war and always referred to it as the "Rooster"! Which was then corrupted to the common name of male chickens! It's superstructure was made of aluminum in an effort to cut down on top weight, but because of corrosion problems was not considered a success at the time. Later the use of aluminum in ships again came under criticism, when it was proven to be highly flammable after a hit by anti-ship missiles.
Saucy ship
I don't think consumables like Radar or even Hydro should work through islands like it does now, it creates campy play styles and punishes other players for using the cover of the map to try to set up ambushes. In real life, those radar signals would be blocked by the islands.
2:03 Holy molly that plane silhouette on the side of that ship..is that true and not photoshop?
It's a Photoshop an actual square on hit like that and the Engine block would have punched right through that ships hull as there was no armor belt so it was probably a auxiliary ship. Also the shape of the out line was to clean there would be far more distortion of the out line and ships hull plating.
Jon Snow that actually happened. HMS Sussex, got hit whilst on bombardment duty. The aircraft practically bounced off, hence the image.
It's like when a bird bounces off your window.
That is real. It is a kamikaze hit on the USS Missouri and it is still present on the ship to this day.
@@KermitTheGamer21 yep, a former crewman playing tour guide called it their parking lot rash. There's a @2" dent in the side where the plane hit.
Those 6" guns were intended to be the secondaries on the next generation of American battleships. Think a Montana with 8x18" guns .
welcome to woostah, dollah twentyfive please
SininStyle I live near Worcester, you nailed it
I live near Worcester too, but the original one in the UK. Weird.
Matt I WBA if I remember correctly there are quite a few towns in the area that are same in the 🇬🇧
It IS referred to as New England for a reason.
Sawyer I like to call it New and Improved England
Just for the record, the Worcester class was not a post WW2 design as Jingles states. They were designed during the war and though only two were completed, after the war, three were laid down, in January, May, and July of 1945, before the end of the war.
I'm not sure I'd call the US light cruisers selfish, you can lock down a cap zone incredibly hard with the radar access and blistering rate of fire on those HE shells. The fire starting potential alone is enough to get battleships to want to get the hell outa range, and IFHE just makes that even worse. Not to mention in a CV game you can easily protect any friendly DD near you from being lit up by the carrier unless he's desperate enough to get that DD killed to throw entire squads worth of planes away to achieve it
I did some research and actually it was originaly pronounced weorceaster it is very old word that was spoken over 1000 years ago back when the anglo saxons reigned the new pronunciation wuster is debatable because only in certan parts of england they say wuster in others its pronouced Worcester and in the us it is also Worcester so really there is no correct way of saying it it is to the preference of the user speaking on a more interesting level Worcester is derived from the word Weorgoran Ceaster. and the reason some people say wooster is because of the french conquerors did not understand how to pronounce it properly and back then there were no rules about how it should be pronounced like today
USS WAR-CHESTER!
I live near Worcester and jingles said it spot on
CptAnnoyU2death don't get do joke do you
Lui S looking at it now it could read either way, but I get it
WOO - STAAAA
No, it's pronounced wooster
Roanoke: it's "Row-an-oak" Jingles... old Indian name... like the famous lost colony of Sir Walter Raleigh.
That CV rework better be buffing all the CVs
HE and fire damage does matter... you are leeching the heals off those ships. If they now only have 2 heals out of 5 say to face another BB instead of a full 5 your job is done.
Jingles you miss prounced Roanoke you say it like rown, oke like the tree
jerry Dickerson. "Oak"
yes I realize that I was typing as fast as possible to spread the world lest the Jingle pronouncement stick and all the EU youtubers start saying it with the E which to somebody whos lives on the Virginia line in North Carolina is slightly triggering
great !!! Given how most american RUclipsrs pronounce german or french or Italian names, nevermind polish or russian ones...some triggering feedback was long overdue^^
Actually jingles... Worcester is a city, well now anyway... what’s that? Back to the salt mines? Okay okay...
Quite boring gameplay. Just kemp bush and leech your team spotters.
Yawn...
Yep nothing special I've done more damage in an Atlanta while being bottom tier. Why was that replay chosen? maybe if he had done 300,000 or more damage but even that isn't much in a tier 10 game.
Say what, now? 300,000 or more damage "isn't much in a tier 10 game"?! Unless you are a super-duper-unicum CV player, I think I'll have to call BS on that one. ;-)
And in return you spot what they can't spot (destroyer), kill it, lock cap point, demoralize everyone else with firebombing and also contribute in flyswatting if there are any.
Yeah imo that's a fair trade.
Admiral Jay oh don't get me wrong. I never said it is a useless boat. Just... boring.
I'm so sick of cruisers. Every angle at any range...citadels. at least that's how the Hipper is. Every game. Every hit. Citadels.
The good old days. I miss these days where AA builds were actually a viable option
When pronouncing Roanoke, you just pronounce it as "Roan-oak". It's a bit odd, but it's not as weird as Worsesterchire.
9:56 feels Bismarck man
I was in a game, happily sailing around in my Gearing, but suddenly a Worcester and a pair of Minotaurs appeared about 10km away. It’s fair to say that I shat myself a little bit...
01:13 well, the devs would actually need to try really hard to add anything to the US Light Cruiser line that did not exist IRL, from tier 5 to tier 10 you have 6 positions and 9 candidates for the Job, if you exclude the 3 already in the game (Cleveland, Omaha and Atalanta) you are still left with 6 for 4 positions available (there's actually another more, the Galveston Class Missile Cruisers, Cleveland Class without rear turrets)
for the Heavy Cruisers it's even more ridiculous, since there are 4 candidates to take the spot of the Cleveland, in fact is more like 5 if you include the Boston-class Missile Cruiser (Batimore Class without rear turret) or 6 if you include the Alaska Large Cruisers (aka Battlecruiser)
Armando Rodrigues Alaska would be a tier 9
MrFatcat17 have you checked if it isn't simply one of the namesakes for built or cancelled cruisers within the several classes possible?
it might be an alternative hull design grouped together with one of the planned namesakes
I absolutely despise everything that flies: The ship
Manual aa takes up too much of your focus better to let the ship go after the planes and focus on shooting
Manual AA does make sense if you're queueing up with a CV and are therefore sure to face planes. Ctrl-clicking those TBs that you have to maneuver against anyway in order to torpedobeat isn't that much of a drain on your focus... ;-)
Being from boston, i can confirm you pronounced that right
Seeing this video after the CV rework really hits hard man a new level of depression
Having a fast reload and fire rate helps with the data and of the fire it can put out and the damage it can do and the chanse of damage with HA, AP, over pens and shatters and will be easier to change them to the stats it should have on the live servers.
JIngles, you are, in fact, mispronouncing Roanoke. The E is silent.
Goddamn youtube with their small buttons on touch screen.
Wanted to enhance the resolution and almost reported this video for sexual content - fix that shit!
Although, knowing Jingles there might be a larger doze of surprise buttsex so the report wouldnt be totally out of place
Watched flamu do this on stream. The general consensus was that this was ludicrous. It wasn't shooting down the Japanese planes on there productionlines from Hawaii, Worcester aa needs buff.
Worcester (like all US heavy cruisers of the time) had large manning requirements (1400 men). So that's one very expensive ship to run if its not going to outperform ships like the Belfast (800 men when not acting as flagship).
I hope the attention given to US cruisers translates to the Battleships too. Right now USN Battleships are not really in a good place until like tier 7. I would also love to see the Alaska class in the game. I lived in Buffalo, New York and got to see the Cleveland class cruiser there and it was such a good looking ship and bigger than I was expecting (and, probably, much bigger looking to my 14 y/o self). Then I read about US ships in WWII and the Alaska and Guam were pretty interesting designs. Essentially battlecruisers, but they were classified as Large Cruisers because they were designed to protect CVs primarily instead of seeking surface engagements. They were quite large but also fast and looked pretty cool from the side, kind of streamlined. Unfortunately, neither survive today, they both got scrapped. This is pretty much anyone's only opportunity to see them and, considering the strength of faster battleship and battlecruiser type ships, they should be a fairly powerful ship and a welcome change from the standard USN battleships (along with their "standard" speed).
TIL Jingles speaks decent Bahston.
Is it ok of I call it Worst-Sister?
I like playing the Omaha CL just for fun sometimes and lighting everything with 13.5 KM on fire nonstop lol. Annoys the piss out of everyone, but that's the point. Also a good distraction when someone is taking heavy fire. Also, if you do circles while firing at your target, and do your best to not get hit too much, you have literal nonstop fire being sent their way because of the amount of guns on each side of the ship. Basically like an Atlanta. I don't do that all the time, but, sometimes I do. Very fun ship for it's tier lol.
Jingles is by far the best Wargaming contributor! He may not be the best at playing infact he's very average, but his presentation and humour is second to none. He keeps you interested and wanting more. Keep up the good work Jingles. :)
You can't have a chat about Worcester and not mention their famous sauce.
"Welcome to Worcestah......Doallah twenty five please."
A dollar twenty five? Isn't that what you're mother charges for a BJ willie?
Just dont say the e, so like oak.
When's the split coming?
ACTUALLY JINGLES Hooked on Phonics can work for you too bc old Sea Dogs can still learn new tricks.
ROWING N OAK
Because the American line really needed more overpowered ships. Thanks WarGaming for continuing to verify the balance does not exist.
The way Jingles says “Roanoke” he makes it sound Hawaiian.
2:24 hello pixels
Ah, the good old days.
Thanks wargaming for making my Midway MORE likely to never be touched again.
Leicester ... “ Lester” not “Leikester”. What’s so hard? And... Roanoke.
Is pronounced Roe-an-oak. Oh wells...
And “Luxury Yacht” is pronounced “Throatwobbler Mangrove”. Bloody English.
OMG DID HE JUST SAT ROANOKEY!?! IM DEAD
This Massachusetts boy HAD to pause the video to Thank You for pronouncing Worcester correctly!! I'm from the Western Part of the State (read: Folks from Worcester east to Boston think dragons reside out here, but I digress) and HATE when names of our cities are murdered by others.
And, the Des Moines class ABSOLUTELY embarrassed the Worcester and the Roanoke (say it with me Jingles: Row-an-Oak; see? Not that difficult) in shore bombardment. And, btw, the USMC STILL has the ANGLICO detachment who's sole function is naval gunfire support.
And AWESOME to see another historical ship video! You and Rita should visit Fall River Mass to see the USS Massachusetts and the USS Kennedy (Gearing Class destroyer). Not only are the ships fascinating, but, Rita will feel right at home, as Fall River has a HUGE Portuguese population- the food and the people are great! Cheers!
No Jingles!!! USS ROANOKE isn't pronounced Ro-ah-no-key... It's pronounced Row-ah-noke (noke like poke).... Signed, an American who had worked in Roanoke, VA.. Kayaked the Roanoke River... And has visited the Lost English Colony of 1587 on Roanoke Island.
Hey Mighty Overlord and other Jingles Fans, i have a Question. Did anyone of you ever Tested Adrenalin Rush on a Minotaur or other ships with a low reload time? Cuz i did and it looks like Adrenalin Rush do not work on ships with a standard low reload time... for example... With my Minotaur the reload time of 3,2 secs stay the same... doesn't matter if my ship is at 100% or 10%..... Same on every DD i tested Adrenalin Rush with...

Roanoke is a port city famous for its wooden canoes made with local white oak. "Rowin' oak" become the battle cry during the war of 1812. The British occupied the city of Camptown VA. When Calvin Coolidge liberated the city, he renamed it Roanoke. PRONOUNCED "rowin' oak.
1st no E in Roanoke. Now to the sister-ship, unlike the Minitors and other British CL s the USN couldn't make the twin 6" mounts work and considering that the Cleveland and Brooklyn triple mounts were very good. And you notice that the USN got rid of the 20 mm and 40 mm gun and put on in your vocabulary the 76 mm gun for AA. Over here we called the 3'/50s and they would shread an aircraft. and they continued to use them on all surface ship in the navy till we came up with the CWIS. We had them on the LPD10 USS Juneau when I was on her in the mid 70s (Sick Bay).
2:03 That image of the imprint of the kamikaze... guess you should be wary of anyone named "Sonia" unless you have a 4.5 inch belt armor :/
Also... Actually Jingles. It's a RN ship: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Sussex_(96)
I'm not trying to abuse or upbraid here. As a 20 year USN Sailor who qualified as a Surface Warfare Specialist on 3 classes of ship, I offer this correction because informative segments ought to accurately inform. At 3:16, it should be "the USN calls it NGFS: Naval Gun Fire Support." Hope this helps!
OH! Regarding her sister ship, the "e" at the end of Roanoke is silent. Take off the "e" at the end and you got the USN pronunciation right!
Roanoke is pronounced rOH-uh-nOHk. It was named of the Town/City/whatever of Roanoke Virginia, not to be confused with the Colony of Roanoke, Britain's first attempt to colonize North America in 1585 which failed when all of the colonist disappeared during Anglo-Spanish war (the war that had the infamous Spanish Armada) for unknown reasons.
