Action Report: E2 (draft)

Please excuse the terrible CSS.

Phase 1: Transport Operation

This operation is essentially an extension of the previous map, just transport focused. The same fleet as before was reused, with some equipment renewals.

Boss support is very optional if going for A-ranks; I used it to make sure there were no failed TP runs.

I had several retreats, caused by various nodes. Not much one can do about it. I found Isonami with OASW was essential to reduce failures at the sub node (A2), and having Fuyutsuki to do AACI was great for the air raid (A). Vanguard formation at node B seemed to work very well.

The given composition gives 54 TP per A-rank, which will take 10 runs to deplete the gauge. It's not very feasible to go for S-ranks (I had none), as the boss is tough. You'd have to replace one of the destroyer's equipments with a cut-in setup, which may or may not be worth the loss in TP per run. Overall, it's a pretty easy route, so I opted to just take my time and do it the easy way.

Phase 2: Harbor Princess Holiday Mode

An anti-installation fight. The Nelson Touch did a lot of the work here.

I used both boss and node support. Node support is optional, but it provides a decent insurance against some of the hazards en-route.

Phase 3: European Princess

Typical surface fight. Again, the Nelson Touch did a lot of the work here.

I used both boss and node support. Node support is optional, but I definitely found it helpful. I used an FCF on Nelson for chipping, but I only needed it a few times. I also did the debuff, but not sure it was needed with the heavily-historical fleet that I used.
