I want to hope that the Hudson pilot in that first attack was posthumously given a promotion and medal for taking down a light carrier as he went down. So glad to see some more WotS content.
It was a light cruiser, and it was pretty old. Hopefully the morale boost from the sinking will help the rest of the campaign, because the losses probably weren't justified for that ship.
8:03 I had a Catalina get shot down in my campaign with its 4 1000lb SAP bombs aboard. It slammed into the side of the carrier and all 4 bombs went off. Her magazine blew up a minute later and I got the carrier
The Java Sea campaign is as fascinating as it is forgotten in that whirlwind of defeats in the first six months of the Pacific theater. Obviously you won’t have the same handicaps ABDA did irl but this should still be a challenge.
Wolfpack345: minimizes surface engagements and deftly uses air power to inflict crippling damage. IJN: 'this is outrageous. It's unfair.' HMS Repulse and Prince Of Wales: 'first time?' 😏
As an Indonesian this series is certainly a good news! The battle of DEI is often overlooked but in my opinion it has a lot of impact for the japanese strength boost. Can't wait to watch more episodes!
Loving how you are trying your best on pronouncing the Indonesian (or Dutch East Indies' back then) cities. I am honestly very impressed by it!:D Keep up the great work!
The mod is pretty fun and certainly shakes up the gameplay a bit. The new resupply system for aircraft is nice. The mod allow you to get Prince of Wales and Repulse and I plan too. I will try my best not to get them sunk! :D
Leaving a comment here on Ep. 1 to boost the series and the channel. Great stuff, just two things though- don't forget that the Australians were part of ABDACOM (it wasn't just American, British, and Dutch forces), and Malaya was invaded *before* Pearl Harbor was attacked, not after. Loving your content Wolfpack. Can't wait to see where it goes in the future.
I'm really excited to watch you play this one out! I love seeing the involvement sometimes of smaller countries (like my own Australia!) play out in media whether it's War on the Sea or a movie. I'd love for you to keep the Aussies on HMAS Perth alive but if you can't... well at least you're playing historically
Wait hold on a minute, that wasn’t a Brewster buffalo, but a Curtiss-Wright CW-21 ;) BTW I frickin love your content man, watching this as I’m sitting down for my 30 min break in my “forward observation” glorified foxhole on the Ukraine border, listening to the distant sirens and occasional rumbles of those dastardly rocket strikes, Wolfpack always sets sail in the right time ;) cheers man!
Your videos are so therapeutic. You're the only person I ever subscribed to on Twitch lol. I hope you're able to upload more regularly in the winter season, one episode a day drives the blues away :P
The Swordfish struck one of the most important blows of WWII. A single hit from a Swordfish torp bomber jammed the rudder of the mighty Bismark and rendered it unsteerable. The British task group showed up the next morning and sank her. Not bad for a relic.
Koepang city is pronounce "KUPANG" and other city in Java you can pronounce it like reading Japanese words :) other city with "OE" is pronounced "U" like "Soerabaya" is "Surabaya" im glad this series come back!
@@mikhailiagacesa3406 Those subs had more tubes than a good number of cruisers. Not hard to believe they fought well above their weight. They also sank 2 U-boats in the war that I'm aware of, one all the way out there in the Indian ocean.
@@mikhailiagacesa3406 Ok looking back that it worded really weird. I just meant a sub with that many torpedoes in a salvo can find itself doing a ton of damage very quickly. A good number of cruisers had less tubes than that.
Back when War on the Sea first came out, I watched you and Tortugapower do playthroughs of it. In every single episode of Tortuga’s playthrough, I posted a “Journal Entry” from Adrian Dunois, a fictional pilot assigned to VB-6. I had a ton of fun writing and posting them, and I hope it’s alright with you if I do the same thing here. Lt.JG Raymond Carter, VCS-4 USS Houston It’s only been a mere few months since the Japanese attacked pearl harbor, but I’m already thousands of miles away from home. As I write this entry, the ship I’m on is sailing towards the Dutch East Indies. A series of islands under assault by the expanding Imperial Japan. Our small collection of ships, designated “Task Force A,” comprises men and ships from Britain, Australia, the Netherlands, New Zealand and the USA. Despite my request for assignment for carrier duties, I found myself flying floatplanes instead. Now I am assigned to Cruiser Scouting Squadron 4, on board the USS Houston. We have four planes here, so that makes 8 members of the flight group. I’ve gotten to know the guys decently well on the trip, and we are all feeling a strange mix of eagerness and dread. One thing is for certain: our lives are about to get a whole lot more interesting.
So, i love your war on the sea playthroughs. The reason i bought the game actually. At first i was very critical of it, my go to Navy game is Silent Hunter 4. I enjoy playing it. Even though i haven't ever played the Tokyo Express i've watched your run of both sides twice now. Im happy to see a new campaign and you at the helm!
Yo, this is awesome. I love this kind of content. I know that there's only so many campaign you'll want to play on here, but still. I absolutely love this game and the commentary is on point.
TY for the great video. This is my favorite game to watch you play. So many different things going on with so many different platforms , aircraft and ship classes
It's great to be back with you in War On The Sea. I do think that you're brave going for the Dutch East Indies campaign considering how it went in the real world. I hope that the game throws you the odd bone otherwise it's going to be a long campaign. Good luck.
The Hawker Hurricanes are Mark 2c versions. Packing four 20mm cannons and top speed of 330 mph. Those 20 mm can do moderate damage to unarmoured shipping. Zeroes are fast but not agile the Hurricane are better. But the Buffaloes are not fast but sturdy - hmm ! Quite the engagement.
As Someoen with Dutch blood I'd like to see (I don't know if possible) to see a Dutch campaign or one where you recruit some Dutch ships as the Allies.
Any day Wolfpack uploads is a good day.
I'm happy you think so :)
Hell yeah it is
Sadly, that means most days are not good. :(
hecc yea!!!111

Awesome to see war on the sea again, a previous war on the sea campaign was the reason I actually started watching this channel.
Same!
Same here... Been waiting for another one
The Japanese Campaign was the one that brought me in. This game deserves more attention and love, it's so fuckin' good!

Thank you for your korea air series. My dad was in korea so it was nice to feel close to him through it.
I am glad you enjoyed it. One of my favorite series I have done.
Forgot how much I enjoyed watching this game. Well played so far!
Thank you!

Noice!
What are the odds?
Here we go! This should be a fun series
It should be!

The best campaign is the entire American Pacific Campaign.

Challenging. Especially when you totally bypass taking control of Koepang OTW to Singapore.

HMS Repulse and Prince of Wales sinking was a shame 😓

If I recall correctly the torpedo planes the Brits actually had at Singapore were even more ancient than the Swordfish. They were Vickers Wildebeests.
Yes correct, unfortunately I didn't have that model available to use, hope everyone enjoys :)
@@YorT-G It's a great mod. I really love the inclusion of often forgotten theatres (and time periods) of war!
@@YorT-G It looks like an awesome mod. I wasn't trying to be critical, just observing history. Great work on the mod!
Loving how you are trying your best on pronouncing the Indonesian (or Dutch East Indies' back then) cities. I am honestly very impressed by it!:D
Keep up the great work!
same I mean at least he tried 🤣
This mod looks awesome. Good luck holding Singapore. Please don't get the Prince of Wales and Repulse sunk :P
already happened :( PoW and Repulse were sunk before feb 1st which is unfortunate
The mod is pretty fun and certainly shakes up the gameplay a bit. The new resupply system for aircraft is nice. The mod allow you to get Prince of Wales and Repulse and I plan too. I will try my best not to get them sunk! :D
Don't stress I'm sure they'll have great anti aircraft guns

Dave! Have you considered doing a war on the sea campaign on your own channel, or perhaps twitch?
Leaving a comment here on Ep. 1 to boost the series and the channel. Great stuff, just two things though- don't forget that the Australians were part of ABDACOM (it wasn't just American, British, and Dutch forces), and Malaya was invaded *before* Pearl Harbor was attacked, not after. Loving your content Wolfpack. Can't wait to see where it goes in the future.
Well said, and Singapore was bombed shortly before Pearl Harbour too.
Love your stuff, you're a niche kinda creator but for those who need someone to fit that niche you're the best of the best.
I'm really excited to watch you play this one out! I love seeing the involvement sometimes of smaller countries (like my own Australia!) play out in media whether it's War on the Sea or a movie.
I'd love for you to keep the Aussies on HMAS Perth alive but if you can't... well at least you're playing historically

Stay safe!
Give them hell
Both the Buffalo and the CW21 are included in this mod - this campaign clip has shots of both..
Can I ask where you are located and second how bad is it honestly.
Love your War On The Sea Campaigns and love the channel keep up the great work 👍 🤙
Thanks!

A different campaign? Awesome! I hope to see Some authentic Dutch sub action
Beat me to it. Anytime I've played a game with the DEI in it, supporting the Dutch Subpack never went wrong. Everything else did...
the whole netherlands is basically a sub :P

I love your series on the war on the seas, I just cant’t stop watching. The best I ever seen. Thanks.
That was one hell of a way to start a series. If you're gonna go down, do as much damage as you can.
Here is hoping I don't loose the campaign!
I have faith, Commander Wolfpack!
I’ve watched you for ages but just bought this game after watching you play it. Amazing game and video’s mate
I was just thinking about how great this game was, and then you upload it! Really excited for this one.
This looks great...and playing a very difficult situation makes it all the more fun to watch. Good luck.
War on the seas is my favorite series from you! I love the aerial asset aspect of this game. Keep em coming Wolpack!!!

Several dozen more Zeroes: "Ohayo Gozaimas!"

Glad to see a new "War On The Seas" series. Already wishing I had my laptop with me to play a round 😅
FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR MONTHS btw this looks sick af
As soon as I see Wolfpack posted: my people need me
1:08 looks real well done. Whether it's U-boat or silent hunter I love watching these videos. Keep it up shipmate.

It's great to see your Channel growing so fast. Keep up the fantastic work 🤗👍
Thank you !
Woohoo! Made my day. Really enjoyed your previous Coral Sea campaign and some superb cinematic vid's that just ace to watch.
My ancestors finally get some recognition for their efforts. The Dutch are easily #1.
I'll try not to butcher the dutch ship names too bad

Yay favourite WWII Wolfpack series is back! Best of luck Admiral Wolfpack :)
Nicely done, as always. Looking forward to binging the next 4 episodes today!
Great start to a great series. I really like the influx of War an the Sea content in my inbox :-)
Lets go! I got this game back when you uploaded your USN Series! I’ve been loving it.
Let’s go my fav series
Awe hell yeah, I've been waiting for another war on the sea series!
Didn't even realise this was here. I am so excited. Was even about to ask you to do it in a comment.
Thank you.
YES! Back to sea we go!
Appreciate the upload l, looking forward to this series for some time now.
So happy we have another war on the sea series. Love the content wolf pack.
8:00 KABOOM 8:02 rest in peace
9:06 definitely dead and exploded
Was excited to see you do this game again. This was how I first found you a long time ago. Great game
So excited for another War on the Sea series! Keep up the great work!
Your back with war on the sea series. I was looking forward to this
War on the Sea is amazing! Love your tactical intro
This game is awesome! After watching your series of both US and Japan campaigns, i was hoping for more content! Great video!
Man! I've been looking for other campaigns in WoTS. So glad you posted this
Why is this man so damn good at narrating and playing naval games.
just came across this tonight and already looking forward to the next uploads

Good luck.
One of the heavy cruisers was a Tone class, that would have been devastating to destroy
Finally!!! Another masterpiece!!!! Looking forward for the rest of the Series!!!! Keep it Up!!!! Wolfpack345🤗
Very excited to see that you started another campaign. Love your vids man keep up the good work
I love this already, there are few games in which you can play as A.B.D.A defending Singapore and the D.E.I,
I always liked your War on the Sea videos. Looking forward to this series!

Wait, it's a new series! 😁
Awesome video as always! Can’t wait to get more from this series!
Wolfpack back on War on the Sea! Good to see this series again from someone that knows the history, equipment, and tactics
The old newsreel look to the intro is an excellent touch.
I have been praying for this ever since your last war on the sea campaign ended.
Good to see modders expanding the campaign scenario selection.
Super excited for a new War on the Sea series!
Looks like I caught the start of what sounds to be a good series, can’t wait.
How cool is that? I appreciate very much that you returned to this game - It`s awesome!!!
I’ve been waiting for this series to make a resurgence
I’ve been meaning to check out this mod. Thanks for making it a series.
