Hey, I am so glad you won the brawl. You gave Britain its honor back. “The HMS Hood was such a beautiful ship. Her and Prince of Wales should have theoretically won that naval battle. Yet do to the technical difficulties of Prince of Wales and the one and a million shot Bismarck hit on Hood. Bismarck became one of the most infamous ships to ever sail the sea’s. On paper though, it should have been a very good fight. HMS Hood should have just closed the distance. Brits were always by the book until they start eating 15 shells and panic turn too early to open up all their guns. (Truthfully though, I’d have been ordering her hard over to port as well. The bodies of the conning tower crew were thrown allegedly into the look out of the bridge. Seeing body parts landing all over would have caused anyone to panic. That turn resulted in the 15in magazine getting hit and an explosion so catastrophic it would kill all but 3. May God be with the 1,500 she took to the bottom of the sea.
yeah hood was only beautiful infront of cruisers and not powerful battleships like bismark dont forget it took hours to sink a batlleship of fine steel
@@waverleyjournalise5757 Hood was the larger ship. The larger ship typically leads a column. Wouldn't have made a difference, PoW was cursed from the start and promptly sunk after her repairs of this battle. Strange that she was once again paired with a big battlecruiser, Repulse. Forget KGV, if you want to consider rewriting history, put Warspite with Hood. She may not have been the newest, fastest, or packed the most firepower but, she was by far Britian's most badass battleship of WW2.
@@waverleyjournalise5757 PoW wouldn't have led Hood. Hood was flagship, the pride of the RN, and a much-more-experienced ship. PoW was so new she still had civilian workmen from Cammell Laird aboard. (Can't imagine what was going through their minds that morning.)
@@ijnfleetadmiral That's wasn't the reason Hood led the line. It was because Real Admiral Holland was on Board and the Admirals ship leads from the front. The Admiralty sent a message to Hood and Pow telling Pow to lead the line but they never revived it because they were on radio silence.
@@kairopalmer5109 I said in my reply Hood was flagship, hence, she was the one leading. PoW was way too new to be a flagship; usually ships undergo a training period before becoming flagship. Also, Holland was a VADM, not a RADM.
Just an interesting fact from the battle. The first hit on Hood was from Prinz Eugen. First hit on PoW was from Prinz Eugen. Bismarck's 1st gunner wins the Knights Cross of the Iron Cross. Seems to me the 1st gunner on Prinz Eugen was the better shot. Of course, he was throwing 8" shells at a slightly quicker rate.
Are there any sound mods for this game that have these old sounds effects when you get hit and when your shells hit the target, the secondaries and AA firing, the bell ringing when all the main guns are loaded (they were all changed about a year ago).
The fact that a single shell couldn't obliterate a warship with a significant armor issue, breaching the magazines, is proof the game's armor mechanics aren't as real as they claim.
If you knew anything at all about the ages-old question of Hood vs Bismarck, you'd know how contrived your reasoning was. But don't bother, stick to your imagination and keep telling yourself that the Royal Navy wanted to throw Hood away in a fight she had no hope of winning from the very start.
@@darin271 If you want to be precise, PoW hit Bismarck THREE times, but the single hit to her bow, cutting off 1000 tons of her fuel stopped "Exercise Rhine" in its tracks.
@@walterkronkitesleftshoe6684 True on Bismarck's part. Don't agree with Lutjens decision to release Prinz Eugen to raid alone. He should have taken both ships NNE back to Norway. I can only imagine what Bismarck and Tirpitz could have done in tandem. But, we'll never know.
@@darin271 After the Denmark Strait engagement, Lütjens was stunned by the realisation that the German's intelligence network had provided him with utterly NO idea of the location of the RN Home Fleet's heavy units (the last German reconnaisance of Scapa Flow had mistakenly reported the Home fleet's capital ships still at anchor, which they weren't). Heading back towards Norway would take him through more confined waters closer to the Home fleet's main anchorage at Scapa Flow, than if he maintained his course south into the empty vastness of the North Atlantic. Hindsight allows us access to information that the "fog of war" did not allow Lütjens... based on his limited knowledge and assumptions, the course he took probably did appear to offer the best chance of escape. As for Tirpitz and Bismarck, their only use together would have been the same as Tirpitz alone.... that is hiding in port to act as a "fleet in being", as a potential threat that the British could not easily sink but would have had to position a large part of their fleet to contain. The Royal Navy had FAR more resources to call upon at sea than the Germans, so any sortie by Kriegsmarine surface units would have been met with overwhelming force, something that happened EVERY time they put to sea.... the German's only ally was the vast emptiness of the world's oceans in which to hide in.... and that vast hiding place was being constantly shrunk by British radar technology after 1941. All the best.
This game is designed just like crossout and many other games you play on your phone to get your money for nothing to be better than other players you have to spend real world currency anyone who does this is doing nothing but lining their pockets with money for something that does not take that much time to create so stop spending your money and learn to save your money your children will either learn to play the game better or they will learn to do without the manufacturers of this game are just like cross out and many others that you find on your phone real world currency to be better than everybody else not by skill but just based on what you spend
This is not true, there is no real power gap between the ships you can buy and the ships you can play for free. Whether you win the game is determined by your skill alone; there is no way to buy a victory, buy better RNG or matchmaking etc. Also... It's just a game... If it affects you that badly I suggest you give it up

This would have happened if Hood didnt mistake Prinz Eugen as Bismarck
Or if Prince of Wales had led Hood... or if KGV had been there instead of Wales... or if Hood had her refit. One in a million, we got unlucky.

The terror of the seas..
The Bismark and the Kreigsmarine !!
3:18 The Hood had his revenge by blowing her up in the battle of the Denmark Strait.
Hey there, Will Jolliff. it's a surprisingly informative video. thanks. :)
Thank you! What did you find interesting?
Are there any sound mods for this game that have these old sounds effects when you get hit and when your shells hit the target, the secondaries and AA firing, the bell ringing when all the main guns are loaded (they were all changed about a year ago).
I remember, but I don't know for sure. Might require some digging.
@@waverleyjournalise5757 I'll try to see if I can find anything, but otherwise, pretty good video.
How are the graphics so good
No Hood detonation? Why did I watch this....
bismark started at 30 or 40 percent of its H.P.yet managed to destroy hms hood
are you blind? I've used 3 heals already and this fight isn't taking place in a vacuum
Unglücklicherweise für dich, wird die Geschichte dies nicht so sehen
Sehr lustig. Wer weiß, was ohne diesen glücklichen Schuss passiert wäre?
@@waverleyjournalise5757 glücklicher Schuss? 😂 Eure Plastikschiffe waren für die Bismarck gar nichts...
Euer Treffer an der Bismarck, dass war Glück!
Weird RUclips recommended but Good Video 👌

Ha! After Bismarck sank Hood, she mauled Prince of Wales which was Britian's newest King George V class Battleship. That's the reality unlike this.
Not before the barely working Prince of Wales & her green crew had mission killed Bismarck with 1 hit.
@@walterkronkitesleftshoe6684 you are a left shoe. PoW hit Bismarck four times.

Alternate ending:hood kill bismarck :)
Yeah , only that in real life the exact opposite happened .
You should take up a career in stating facts.
