Easy mode!

First Unlocks

E and G

Simple fleet. Let's pull out the Mutsukis! LBAS to E/G.

Main Fleet

Escort Fleet

Node B

Minneapolis was replaced with Minazuki. The first LBAS base was rearranged for longer range.

Transport Operation

A classic transport operation! No real blockers here; node B was smoked and Tenryuu finished off the boss at night...though LBAS did the real work (sortie bases to the boss (node I). The shown fleet got 161 TP for an S-rank. It's the same as the fleet for Node B, except outfitted with transport equipment and smokes.

Main Fleet

Escort Fleet

Phase 2

A pretty straightforward combat phase. Nodes F and G did cause some taiha's occasionally, but G was generally fine with smokes. All sortie LBAS to the boss (N), and no support was used. Kashi showed up on the first chipping run!

Main Fleet

Escort Fleet

Phase 3: Non-Treaty Cruiser Water Princess

Another straightforward combat phase. Smoke on Q helped the pass rate. No support was used; all sortie LBAS to the boss (node T). The fleet was fitted out as a Fast+ fleet with the Nagato Touch, which was very effective. Myoukou and Noshiro generally dispatched whatever was left of the boss.

Main Fleet

Escort Fleet

Phase 4: Remodeled Wartime Cargo Princess

A simpler striking-force operation to complete the map. We took five Rei-Go members (Ooyodo, Ashigara, Kasumi, Asashimo, Kiyoshimo), Ushio (from CarDiv4), and Asashio, for ASW support. This fleet was perfect for the task! The boss did not stand a chance.

All sortie LBAS was sent to the boss (node Z). Node support was used for security in getting to the boss, but not required. We smoked Node B, which helped (along with Vanguard formation), and vanguard at X was fine.

Ashigara took care of the boss on last dance, with an assist from Ooyodo.
