2024-02-14 15:23:55 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Apologies for the gap since the last behind the scenes update. Over the last few weeks we've been working flat out to get the videos for december finished and ready for early access. We're just about there now, so I can share what we're been working on.

Hello everyone!
It's been a couple of weeks of hard work toward the Vietnam series and we're getting to the point now where some videos are starting to be ready for early access.

It's finally almost finished. The Forrestal video which has been in the works since *checks notes* May 15th is finished.
Well, nearly. There will probably be a couple of tweaks here and there before the full release, but the video is now available for viewing in early access for...
2023-08-18 14:24:04 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
As I mentioned in a previous update earlier in the summer, our major series in the autumn and winter of this year is going to be on the Vietnam War(s), covering the grand sweep of history in Vietnam between 1945 and 1975- or at least, as much as we can feasibly fit in.
At the moment this series is shaping up to be
Hello everyone!
We've managed to resurrect the second battle of the Atlantic video from the animation hell it had been stuck in for a while!
Here's the early access cut - it'll be live in a few days. I've opened up this post to all patrons to make up for the lack of other updates recently, even though early access is normally only si...
2023-07-05 14:22:15 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
Apologies its been a little while since the last update. The last couple of videos we released have done quite poorly, and it took be a while to get my head back in gear to write and update on here. I tend to take it quite personally when we have projects that don't meet expectations, especially on a video we poured hund...

Hope you're all having a good start to 2023. Here's a comprehensive update on what the channel is working on for release in the next two months or so.
As you might recall from earlier updates, one of my biggest frustrations of late is the upload frequency on the channel. We massively increased the qualit...

Hello & Merry Christmas to you all.
Here's early access to the last video of the year. It will be a shorter time than normal until the video goes live- I was sick part of last week and this which has delayed it, and I want to get the video out before Xmas to round out the year.
The video is on the sinking of the carri...

Hope you are keeping well. Here's an update on what videos are coming up on the channel over the next couple of months.
After completing the Falklands series, the name of the game has been a lot of researching and planning, to work out what projects I want to work on and in which order. The easiest way for me...
2022-11-23 15:33:37 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
It's been a long while since I wrote a comprehensive update on the channel. In fact I've been awfully quiet on all fronts other than uploading videos for a few months now.
The reason for this, largely, is that my fiancée and I spent the summer going through the process of buying our first home....

Episode 4/6 in the Falklands War series. Wasn't able to get this one to Patrons before release due to tight deadlines with the sponsor for this one- my apologies for that.
Last two Falklands vids will release in late August/early September - I have to complete research on them.
There will be some videos in the intervening...

Early Access for this weeks video, which is on the WW1 Raid on Zeebrugge and has been put together in collaboration with Drachinifel.
It also functions as a sequel to the Aboukir video from earlier in the year.
Next up will be a video on the sinking of HMS Sheffield (Episode 4/5 in the falklands series), and there will be...

It's finally here. After months of work, I'm finally ready to start publishing the big series on the Falklands War I've been talking about for ages.
And its only *two* days late.

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to put a quick note here to reassure you all that I'm still hard at work on videos.
I know that its been a while since a video was published and since an update on Patreon, but the truth is I've been just been absolutely immersed in research for the Falklands War series that will be coming ou...

2021-12-10 16:46:26 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Hope you are all well, and I hope you enjoyed the HMS Edinburgh video last week. It was a lot of fun to make, though perhaps hasn't got the same views as some other recent videos. YouTube is a fickle business!
Today I want to give some updates on what will be the final miniseries on the channel of 2021, on th...
2021-11-19 16:21:08 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone, here's a full update on what's going on with the channel at the end of October!
This month I published two videos: Operation C and a more experimental one on the illegal salvaging that has taken place on the Java Sea wrecks in the last decade or so.
I'm quite happy with how both are doing so ...
2021-10-29 13:41:31 +0000 UTC View Post
This is the latest and final cut of the Java Sea Salvaging video. There's about 25 seconds of extra content added since the early access version, and some extra polish here and there.
Thanks for the feedback and support!

Early access on tomorrows video! This is a slightly experimental format, so any and all feedback is eagerly anticipated

2021-10-25 10:54:22 +0000 UTC View PostHi all,
Just wanted to put a quick note here to let you all know of a couple of changes I'm making on the Patreon backend.
Firstly I'm enabling annual memberships, which allows Patrons to opt to pay a years worth of pledges in one go, and in return gives a discount which I believe to be two months' worth. This seems a no-...

Hello everyone!
Hope you are all keeping well and that you enjoyed the video on the Fall of Singapore. I've been busy working on video plans for the autumn, and can give you all some comphrensive updates on videos below:
Hi everyone,
Hope you are having a good summer, and I hope you enjoyed the most recent Malayan video! It hasn't performed particularly well on the views front, but I hope it added to your enjoyment of the series nonetheless.
It was the penultimate video in that series, and at the end of next week I'll be publishing its big conc...
