New players: Download World of Warships and use the code EXTRA1 for free goodies! http://cpm.wargaming.net/i3v7c6uu/?pub_id=2017_Video_1 During World War II, the Bismarck was the pride of the German navy - and the nightmare of Great Britain. It was enormous, overpowered, and a constant threat to the seas. So when they got word that the Bismarck had mobilized, the British raced to stop it.

I think perhaps something is broken on Patreon's platform? Here's the direct link: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CV1tvMYFRs" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CV1tvMYFRs</a>

Not sure why that's happening as the video's definitely up and out on YouTube. But here's the direct link: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CV1tvMYFRs" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CV1tvMYFRs</a>

Just a nitpick before I even watch the video: while the Bismarck, and her sister ship the Tirpitz, were certainly formidable vessels, they were actually not the largest battleships afloat. That distinction goes to the Japanese ships Yamato and Musashi, displacing almost 72,000 tons fully equipped. The Bismarck and the Tirpitz displaced around 50,000 tons with full load.

While technically the Yamato was only launched, launched only means the hull has been completed. The armaments, radars, fire control etc aren't fully installed and calibrated: the crew has not been fully trained. Commissioned is when a ship has all her systems fully installed and has completed speed and gunnery trials therefore ready for active combat service. Bismarck was commissioned in August 24,1940 and Yamato was in December 16, 1941, so at the time of this story Bismarck was the largest warship afloat.

Awesome! I love when we get extra Extra History! Twice as much of this show for a couple of weeks is frankly more exciting than most holidays for me. lol

Lancelot Holland might be the most British name imaginable. Just as naval officers on an active mission drinking sherry as an appetizer is the most British behavior imaginable.

So that was the reason for delaying one of the regular episodes couple of weeks ago? Well... you redeemed yourself :)

I wish that were why, but no, sadly EC is just running into a slew of production issues right now. We're trying to right the ship! But it's disconnected from the EH pipeline.

I know, right?! LANCELOT. I wouldn't even have the guts to name a kid that. ;D
