    It’s midnight on August 17, 1919, offshore on the Gulf of Finland.
    The silence of the sea is broken by the rumble of speedboats racing across the water, their bows bouncing on the calm waves. On their stern, they carry 18 inch torpedoes.
    Their mission is simple and daring. Attack a heavily armed Russian port.
    They are to use the speedboat’s small size to sail over Russian minefields and attack the Russian Baltic fleet docked at the port of Kronstadt. Small motorboats versus a heavily armed base.
    The British are trying to prevent Bolshevik forces from using their fleet against the Estonians who are fighting a desperate war for independence.
    It's an incredible story of bravery and daring. A David and Goliath encounter of small motorboats against the might of a Russian stronghold.

    G'day Yarnhub, I gotta say the animation quality just keeps getting better as the up close facial shots and lim moving is masterful, although knowing the type destroyer used the turret traverse rates were a bit fast on the Pattern 1911 102 mm mounts and the Pom-Pom mounts fired at LMG rates except in the slowed down action.
    Yet an overall good animation of a somewhat forgotten raid in an often forgotten part of the russian civil war.
    Hmm in your preview earlier this week many guessed the Zeebrugge raid an I was certainly wondering would your team ever cover that glorious raid one day as well? (reading into it was always crazy with the brits using fireships to block the port entry and they stuck flamethrowers to the ships as well like HMS Vindictive 1897).

    Then the boy helped his side soldiers by risking his life and throwing some sand near the machineguns by sneaking. Sadly the boy died because while throwing sand at the machinegun the machine gun shooted him but he was succesful on jamming the machine gun.

    Y E S A coverage in the Interbellum Wars of 1919 where the US, France, and the UK invade Soviet Russia to prop up the Baltic States, send the Czechoslovak Legion home, and attempt to curb communism!
    Glad to see it being covered Yarnhub! 10/10!

      I don’t really understand why you are so cheerful of these events. British and French, Americans and even Germans blatantly invaded young Soviet Republic. As if it is okay to just invade other countries. As if it is to be forgotten.
      We never forgot this stab in the back, however.

    I love stories of the seemingly impossible task is taken up, simply because it needs to be done. Like the story of Witold Pilecki. He did the unthinkable/impossible because it need to be done. His story needs to be shared...and you guys need to do it.
