Loading...There are many things to admire about the large Cruiser USS Alaska, but the thing I like most is how triggered people get when you call it a Battlecruiser.

Just be aware that I get hundreds of emails every week and I can’t promise that I’ll show what you send in.
such a huge huge fan of you jingles keep doing what you’re doing your content is amazing and superb bloody well done sir 🙂
*Looks at the title*
Oh hang on, just got a message from the Royal Navy!
It says: “There’s nothing wrong with our bloody ships!”
“However, there is something very wrong with Admiral Beatty. He keeps raising the wrong signal flags, fires to miss the target and causes our battlecruisers to explode violently!”
@Internet Entity and that is on a good day!
That Russian cruiser is pronounced: Bah-grah-tee-ohn. A general in the Napoleonic wars and later the name of a major Soviet offensive in WW2.
I always think ‘sack lunch’. Operation: Sack Lunch, the Cruiser Paper Sack Lunch, General Sack Lunch. I don’t know why my brain goes there every time.
Doesn’t matter…everyone is gonna call it a P.Bag now.
Thanks for the info.
Unfortunately i think PeeBag is more likely to stick…
Yes… and Tolstoi mercifully killed him off, watching a French grenade, wondering about the purpose of life… What is he doing here in 2020 still annoying people )))
Me off course in my German ships, I am more akin to Mr. Pierre, with his funny glasses, wandering around the field of Borodino “heh?”…”what”???? ….”Where??”
Isn’t he in “War and Peace” as well?
I am a simple man:
I see Jingles, I klick
“Go ahead, SMASH that dislike button!”
Ohhh no Jingles you are tempting the fates!
BLAZE IT UP
@Sgt Hawk I see your edutainment channels and I raise you all of Brady Haran’s channels.
Maybe the fates like a good duel?
The Alaska, one of the most consistent ships I ever used, never disappoints to give any ibuki captain ptsd after losing 2/3s of their hit points in a Salvo 😉
Jingles: “something something Battlecrusier”
Youtube: demonetize for hate speech
“Smash that dislike button”
– Some Jingles watched a lot of Business Blaze lately?
Simon’s channels are the kind that are binge-worthy, one moment you thought ‘just one video’ the next moment you’re wondering why’s the sun waving good morning at you so soon
Allegedly
I’m waiting for a Fact Fiend reference. Lol
@Graham Strouse 8. And a podcast. Busy man . . .
@Thomas Chow That’s no joke fam. For the longest time I was wondering why I was getting rec’d Business Blaze; I thought it was something entirely else so I avoided it. So when I finally got around to checking out why I was getting the recs….. I had lost several hours of my life afterward.
Nobody:
Jingles: *Pee bag*
The Mango Mussolini just perked up at that!
Pee is stored in the Bagration.
Have only met a few people in my life who possess a laugh that can, all by itself, cause laughter in others. Jingles has one of the better ones.
“Go ahead, SMASH that dislike button!”
Liked the video, for the number of times he said that!
Smash that dislike button? Ah, a fellow man of culture i see.
Take a shot everytime jingles say “Smash that Dislike button.”
My cat: starts meowing uncontrollably in the background
Akizuki: also starts meowing
Me: What form of black sorcery is this bullshit?
@skoshman1 I was using headphones. lol.
Remote-control kitty.
Telepathic kitty, kitty. Purrrrr!
Pretty sure we all know it’s actually cats that rule the planet, and that they only keep us humans around for entertainment.
It is possible that Akizuki was making noises that humans couldn’t hear before shifting down into range for us, so your cat replied to the vocalisations emitted before the audible ones
“If the enemies where paying attention they would know his damage control is on cooldown.”
Jingles you are vastly overestimating an average players ability even at T 10.
Is that also taking into account the window lickers and Potheads?
For evidence; Witness the final moments of the match.
Crunchy on the outside
Chewy on the inside:
Des Moines-adillos!
Well done
You mean Des Moines-adios! 😀
“tastes like a battlecruiser”. Anyone else get a mental image of Jingles licking his screen and going “hmmm, yep, that’s a battlecruiser all right.”
I wonder if how his taste skills compare to his eyesight….
Actually, I imagine Jingles actually going to the ship yard and licking a ship. LOL.
“What is this metallic tang? …This is the taste of a battlecruiser, isn’t it, Jingles?”
it would explain why he is so often mistaken when identifying ships or tanks…
Actually, I got an image of him holding up Akizuki up to the ship. She noms it, thinks for a few seconds, and gives her professional opinion, usually some variation of “mew”.
Jingles then takes careful note of what kind of vessel the ship in question is, then completely forgets his notes every time he goes to make a video. I suspect Akizuki and Rita hide them because it’s funny.
@Tracytron no you got the first one correct…
@Grand Admiral Raeder ill call it the P.bag
@Grand Admiral Raeder Not anymore…
P Bag.
D Bag.
Baggy.
Baggins.
Bilbo the Battlecruiser…
We hates it, we does.
Mr. P-body approves this message.
I thought everyone called it the P. Bag.
@Matt Evans Sorry, but I think you’re in the minority on that one. The FV 215-183 is the Deathstar, The Jagd E100 is the Jageru.
So sayeth the lord Jingles
Ditto, this is what I will refer to that ship as from now on. I was calling it the “bag-rat-on” originally.
Hehe 169 likes.
if a P.Bag back’s over your sinking ship would it be called a T bag then?
No he isn’t, a battlecruiser has battleship guns equivalent of battleships from the same period. It’s why HMS Invincible surprised everyone because it had the same guns as HMS Dreadnought just like how Hood, Renown and Repulse had 15inch guns the same as the Queen Elizabeth and Revenge class battleships.
Refit Alaska with six 16inch guns in three twin turrets and you would have a battlecruiser variant of the Alaska class.
@Ushio01 Exactly. It goes even deeper than that. The Lion-class, Tiger and Queen Mary also had the 13.5″ guns of their contemporary battleships, the Orion, King George V and Iron Duke-classes.
The ONLY Battlecruiser that had guns that weren’t shared with a contemporary battleship was Furious, and it was realized how dumb this was before she was even launched. She never put to sea with that armament, having the forward turret removed while under construction and replaced with a flight deck.
@wun1gee Fixating on a couple of arbitrarily-chosen design components or design lineages doesn’t really get you closer to a universal definition of a ship type. The central essence of a ship type, the first thing a designer has to consider, is what that ship is meant to *do,* its basic mission profile; for a battlecruiser, this is “kill cruisers, run from battleships”. That is the basis of the definition, and everything else derives from that. That basic mission profile will determine the core capabilities the ship type must have in order to carry out its mission (which is what I put in my checklist), and from there you get to the specific design lineages and tools (like guns) that can provide those capabilities. The criteria you’re trying to use are superficial and don’t really look at the deeper essence of the ship type. Battlecruisers do not have to have the same guns as contemporary battleships; because their job is to fight cruisers rather than battleships, they simply need guns powerful enough to decisively overmatch the defenses of cruisers. Battleship guns will certainly do that job, but smaller guns in between battleship and cruiser size also fit the bill. Likewise with armor, a thinned-down battleship-style armor scheme will certainly work against cruisers, but it’s not the only armor scheme that meets the requirement. If the ship has the capability to decisively crush cruisers but to run away from battleships rather than fight them on equal terms, then that ship meets the essential definition of a battlecruiser, regardless of what specific tools or design elements it has to provide those capabilities.
When I say “kill cruisers”, I mean killing whatever the “standard” cruisers were at that time, which does of course change based on the time period. For the Invincibles, this would mean the latest generations of armored cruisers. The Invincibles were armored sufficiently to fight those armored cruisers, as they emphatically demonstrated at the Falklands when a combined 25 hits from the German armored cruisers produced no major damage and only one sailor dead on the British battlecruisers. That battle also demonstrates the level of superiority over standard cruisers that I mean when I’m talking about criteria for battlecruisers; the Alaskas would have crushed Japanese treaty-era heavy cruisers in just the same way. Along those lines, you absolutely cannot claim the Alaskas were just “the next step” in the cruiser lineage. Yes, the Baltimores were almost 50% larger than the Wichita, but the Alaskas were more than *double* the size of the Baltimores and nearly *three* times the size of the Wichita. That is not an incremental increase, especially when you consider that the design and lead-ship-build processes for the Baltimores and Alaskas were barely a year apart (initial studies leading to the Alaska design actually predated the earliest studies for the Baltimores). The Alaskas are clearly on another level of capability, and would easily have destroyed a Baltimore 1v1, or even 1v2 if you wanted to give both sides equal tonnage.
