Task Force Admiral Vol.1: American Carrier Battles is a single-player experience centered on the command of an early Pacific War US Navy carrier task force. As the overall commander, you are in charge of seeking the destruction of the enemy naval forces and preventing your opponent, the Japanese Navy, from accomplishing its objectives. To achieve your aims, you have at your disposal the most fearsome sea projection weapon known to Man in 1942: your carrier air groups and the task forces that support them.

Drachinifel just uploaded a video about Dutch submarines in WWII. Near the end, he gets to O-19 (I think that was your sub in the last War on the Sea play through?) and apparently she had an interesting career… which started by her firing on a US freighter that was being towed to safety and thankfully missing… before finding actual Japanese merchants. Apparently, Dutch subs were under the command and supply of the British mainly, so they missed out of the Mk XIV “Failure Onion”.

What I really liked the most is that all of the Japanese naval aircraft have the correct color schemes for each of the planes. Red stripe(s) for Akagi and Kaga, blue stripe(s) for Soryu and Hiryu, white stripe(s) for Shokaku and Zuikaku; hopefully they will use the yellow stripes for the light/auxiliary carriers like Ryujo, Shoho and Junyo.

Commanders. For you guys curious the devs plan to have a ‘playable slice’ released before the end of 2023. A playable slice ‘a.k.a Demo’ might be a full scenario, part of a scenario (e.g. Battle of Coral Sea) this demo might be different from what Wolfpack345 has here 😀the full details of who can get this playable slice, to what extend (how many), will it be a kickstarter or not, and the other requirements are still being finalised. But, hopefully you guys will be getting more news shortly. Stay tuned Commanders 🙂

After watching all the Montemayor videos about some of the battles in the pacific I sure hope that some of the randomness and fog of war is a serious part of this game. Bad and good sighting reports, radio interference, squads getting tunnel vision and going for the wrong target or just plain getting lost. It seems such a big part of war and most games just ignore it and everyone just acts perfectly.

@AaronScottLawford 11 ай бұрын

The game will have FOW. You will be able to adjust how much FOW you experience in the scenarios. However, for the purpose of the above test scenario I suspect it may have been disabled so the Commander could experience all the action and potential camera angles and views.

@sirboomsalot4902 11 ай бұрын

The devs have said that they really want to focus on the fog of war. Apparently on the highest difficulty settings you can literally only see the commanders pov on the bridge of your flagship and the rest is sketchy WW2 intel

Here we go again. Wolfpack has such diverse content. 🙂 Excellent graphics in the demo. I like the "order of battle" panel, but to see action of specific aircraft units seems quite cumbersome. do prefer, however, to see Wolfpack actually have some control of the units during battle. I subscribe and support his channel to watch him and hear his running commentary.

Good to see them hopefully making some progress. I had this on wish list with Steam since Feb 2021 and at the time, they did have some release dates announced, etc. Obviously those got changed at some point and I have been wondering what has been happening since. The graphics have looked really good from day one and I hope the game play will match as well. It is obviously going to get compared to WOTS and hopefully will do better in the areas that game is very weak at (like the fact that the player can essentially sink the other fleet while not losing very much). Thanks for putting this up Wolf. Looking forward to seeing you play it.

Wow! Looking VERY appealing and promising. This one has been on my Steam wishlist for some time already. The only 'disappointment' worth mentioning is that it would have been nice to see structural battle damage on the ships after bomb hits (in addition to the current fire and smoke effects). At this point, it seems only planes show any battle damage.

I’m sure they’ll add it in at some point, this game is still on pretty early development I think

Thanks for showing it off! Looks beautiful, particularly the fire and smoke effects. Detail on the aircraft and ships is great. But what kills the immersion for me is the lack of any sort of crew on the ships. No flightdeck crew, so how are those planes being moved around? No gunners either. Even having some static figures placed around the superstructure, guns and flight deck would go a long way to improve how sterile it looks. That having been said, I'm gonna follow this closely, and I really hope the devs can look at adding some people here and there.
