How to Command a Carrier Task Force + EPIC Dogfights (Task Force Admiral Gameplay)

The Battle of the Coral Sea has begun. Two US Carriers vs. Two Japanese Carriers. Who survives? ⚓✈️

In this episode, we are playing the full Battle of the Coral Sea scenario in the Task Force Admiral demo. Following up on our first hit video, I’m breaking down exactly how to play this game—from setting up your first Combat Air Patrol (CAP) to launching a massive strike on the Japanese fleet.

The first half of this video is a dedicated tutorial on the map interface, air orders, and search patterns. Then, the gloves come off. Watch as we intercept Japanese Zeros in intense dogfights, launch a strike against the carrier Shōkaku, and desperately try to defend the USS Lexington from enemy bombers.

If you are waiting for the best naval strategy game of 2026, you need to see this.
