I will add that I sort of suck doing voice overs, but hopefully you can get something from it
This is my first attempt at this so all comments welcome!
Yes, the sync between the video and narrative is off by several seconds. It be wiser to add voice in post processing, but that might be constraining. I think you should have used a few exemplary ships. Talking about torpedoes and plunging fire with the Hiei didn't seem to work.
You left out declaring targets before shooting and and damage rolling down when a hit box is not available. It would also have been useful explain your dice mechanics happening on the screen.
I was a little confused as to movement relative to turns or segments. Where was the break when the North Carolina's speed reduction took effect?
There was a big volume jump at about t10:30. The audio went back to its original level at t11:19. Vassal mechanics and a couple references crept into the video, that could be confusing (dice are good though). You should convert Vassal references to be more dead tree in usage. There is a large dead space at the end of the video.
I liked how you up the impulse descriptions and the data logs during the demonstration. I think those provided the best explanations when used in conjunction with the narrative. I like your opinion on unboxing videos. I never understood the point of them either, beyond advertisement that is.
