Leaves a few hundred thou in the bank which I may tinker with... What was the decision on missile fire probability? Can we define it or is it default values?
Not a very imaginative fleet, but it's the sort of fleet I'd use in game, so I'm curious as to how well it'll do...
Just had a quick look and altho both the Panther and Falcon Hauler are the most popular in class, I don't think anyone else's fleet is just them.

Dead line for the fleets is the 16th, right? So the battles take place during weekend (17 -18th)?

Just thought I should point out that I've updated my fleet (it's hard to find unless you use the link in the first post.)
Anyway, simply wanted triplex scanners, original post edited and here's the pertinent details if you're feeling lazy.
Removed 5 Spectre Missile from Osaka and added 4 triplex scanners (1 for each ship) Total is now 249,883,595 with a total of 6405 left.
Edit: The video looks great now that you can see it in 1080!

With regards to the commentary...
Something you might consider doing would be to first insert a few frames before the actual battle detailing each team's layout (after the introductory frames saying "XFF I - Match n: Opponent A vs Opponent B"). Maybe say a few words with your best guess at the tactics that were supposed to be behind it. Then there's of course the actual battle - try describing the combat maneuvers: e.g. "..and the Springblossoms are flanking that Python... it certainly looks like a slaughter here, <team B's> fighters stand no chance against that amount of Flak fire" ... or something. Believe me, I have absolutely no spare time right now or I would help with the commentary

Re: my commentary. It might be a tall order to attach it to the video itself - first, I'm in Eastern Standard time and TJ is in GMT+4...
What I intended was for the commentary text to go just before and after the video post on the first page - with the debriefing text spoilered out.
So after each battle, you'd get a (spoilered out) debriefing along with the links, as well as a bit of preview text for the next battle. 
We might want to be careful with the mid-video commentary - it might be too much, and it does take time to do.

To be honest, i dont think triplex's will make much (if any) difference, as the battleground is small enough you can see 90% without any scanner!

What no Solano's?
Seems just about everyone favors the Falcon Hauler as their M3 of choice with the next nearest being the Nova Raider. I'll still stand by my Tenjin's even though they cost nearly 7mil each (fully outfitted). I'm sure if the Venti was allowed that a fair number of people would use that ship, heck nearly 1 in 4 fleets are packing Solano's.

Why arent they allowed?
Dont they become available if you get higher relations with OTAS?
Still buyable...

Nope, they're the (IIRC) rank 7 OTAS reward. They aren't purchasable in vanilla TC.

Aah, that's more like it! looks really good now - the first version was more for mobile screens. As for commentaries: Try to be your own self and think any ship as unique one or really expensive. When that Python went up I thought: That DID hurt!
Wehell, looks like we're more or less set and just need a few more fleets to go! (Though, if we got to 28 fleets we would need only an odd one to even numbers in round 2 (28/2=7 +1odd=8=1by1 final!)) 32 would, of course be cooler, but heck, if we can't get another 8 (if I'm not completly lost right now) 2 more should be possible in 4 days.
BTW: I was able to download the save after all -> it's my     provider. Ha, but I'm smarter then that lot

*Coughs* That 6 more fleets if we want to get 32 in total.
As for the Venti, like Blade mentioned, it's only awarded. The Sirokos on the other hand is buyable. 
If the rules on what ships are allowed were different, I'd be adding in Advanced/Enhanced/Prototype ships.
