A new idea (Patreon)

We always struggle with how to make events come alive that weren't captured on film. Recreating events live is usually rather cringe, and in any case out of the question at our budget levels.  Some events, especially more technical events can of course be recreated using computer generated imagery, but that too is very, very expensive. So for some time we've been entertaining the idea of taping into a resource were a lot has already been invested into creating a 3d model of history: computer games. There aren't that many games that are good enough to make that possible, but for naval warfare there is one game that has come quite a way to at least create fairly accurate renderings of the technical action side of things: World of Warships. Therefore we are glad to announce that we will pioneer that idea for Pearl Harbor in cooperation with the guys over at wargaming.net. Like we say in the video this is yet another step in making history come alive, and while it does enable part of the Pearl Harbor project, it is still only thanks to your membership that it is possible to make this monumental project at all. So, many, many thanks to you all for being part of the TimeGhost Army
