The "Hit Hard! Hit Fast! Hit Often!" campaign is a complex campaign designed to challenge players with a series of in-game tasks that echo the hard-hitting, aggressive style of American admiral William "Bull" Halsey. It requires a player to have ships of at least Tier VIII in order to complete, and is comprised of 49 different tasks spread out over 5 missions. There are achievements for both completing the campaign and completing all tasks in the campaign.

Admiral William Frederick Halsey became one of the contributors to the Allied victory in the Pacific. It was he who managed to gain crucial success in the Battle of Guadalcanal and who led the fight for the Solomon Islands that eventually broke a path to Japan. His phrase "Hit hard! Hit fast! Hit often!" became the motto of the U.S. Navy in the Pacific theater.

The final task of Mission 1 awards a special container; this container holds collectibles that unlock access to the "American Cruisers" collection.

Mission 1

William Frederick Halsey, Jr. was a natural-born seaman. He was born in the small port town of Elizabeth, New Jersey, to the family of a naval officer. The future Admiral's ancestry included many pirates and whalers, so he was destined to spend his life at sea. In 1899, after failing to obtain a long-awaited appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Halsey Jr. entered the University of Virginia with the single purpose to join the Navy, even as a physician. The only great thing he acquired at university was his passion for American football.

When Halsey eventually joined the Naval Academy in 1900, little did they know they had opened their doors to one of their most famous graduates. However, capricious and stubborn, "Pudge" Halsey was not the sharpest tool in the shed. As far as his academic performance was concerned, he ranked 42nd out of 62 students of the class of 1904. The first ship in his naval career was the battleship Missouri. The symbolism of that assignment would only become apparent 41 years later.

Mission 2

Commissioned to his first officer rank in 1906, Halsey participated in the legendary cruise of the Great White Fleet — a 1907-1909 round-the-world voyage of the 16 advanced U.S. battleships, which was meant to demonstrate the increased naval power of the U.S.A — aboard the battleship Kansas. During the visit to Japan, Halsey had the chance to go aboard Mikasa, the renowned flagship of the Japanese Combined Fleet. This glorified battleship didn't impress Halsey. After the cruise ended, the young officer left the ships with big guns for service aboard smaller, faster destroyers.

During World War I, Halsey was eventually assigned as a ship commander. The ship was USS Shaw, a Sampson-class destroyer. Once he happened to command a division consisting of two American destroyers and two British sloops, of which he would later recall that he was as "proud as a dog with two tails". By the end of the war, Halsey had been decorated with a Navy Cross.

Mission 3

In the early 1920's, Halsey, who hardly ever disembarked from a ship during his service, was suddenly appointed as a U.S. naval attaché in Germany and Scandinavia. In 1930, he commanded a division of destroyers. Then, to pave the way to the rank of admiral, Halsey studied at the U.S. Naval War College for senior officers. In 1935, he was assigned as the commander of USS Saratoga, once of the most powerful U.S. Navy aircraft carriers of that time. However, this position required completion of an air observer course. Halsey didn't like this perspective, as he thought it would be much better to control he airplane himself rather than being the "second person in the cockpit".

In 1935, the 52-year-old Halsey completed the full course of a naval pilot, and became the oldest man in the history of the U.S. Navy to earn his Naval Aviator's wings. Being one of the few at that time, Halsey, same as his future opponent Yamamoto Isoroku, became an advocate for naval aviation, foreseeing that aircraft carriers would be the greatest power in the future wars fought at sea.

Mission 4

On the day of the Pearl Harbor attack, Vice Admiral Halsey, in charge of the task force headed by USS Enterprise, was far from Hawaii, as a storm had delayed their arrival. After learning of the Japanese attack, the admiral — known for his explosive temper — let hatred for the new enemy grow in his heart. Chester W. Nimitz, the newly-appointed commander-in-chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, realized that Halsey's aggression and restlessness was just the thing for the American seamen depressed by the Pearl Harbor disaster. For this reason, in early 1942, it was Halsey who — with the help of his carrier task force — held a series of lightning-like "hit-and-run" raids on Japanese strongholds. After James Dolittle's bombers took off for the Tokyo Raid from the decks of Halsey's aircraft carriers, the name of William Halsey became a personification of the belief in victory over Japan for every American.

In October 1942, after taking command of the South Pacific forces, Halsey led the persistent fight for Guadalcanal — one of the Solomon Islands — that was a key to the entire Pacific Campaign.

Mission 5

During the Battle of Guadalcanal, Halsey turned out to be the one the U.S. needed the most at that place and time. He fueled confidence in all his subordinates, including each and every seaman or marine, with his overflowing energy and belligerence. He struck blow after blow against the Japanese by sending his battleships and carriers to the narrow straits of the Solomon Islands, whenever he thought it was worth it.

In February 1943, when the Americans had at last gained total control over Guadalcanal, Halsey continued the struggle for the remaining islands of the archipelago. He was the first commander in the Pacific theater to apply the strategy of "island hopping" over the most reinforced defensive strong points of the Japanese. "As long as I have one plane and one pilot I will stay on the offensive", he once said. Step-by-step the Admiral pushed his sailors forward, taking risks, making mistakes, and suffering losses (not all of them justified). The culmination point of the fleet commander's career came on 2 September 1945. On that day, the surrender of the Japanese Empire was signed aboard USS Missouri, the flagship of Admiral William Halsey, commander of the Third Fleet... the most powerful task force in the U.S. Navy.
