In maps where a [[LBAS|Land Base]] is present, an additional mechanic may be imposed where an enemy abyssal fleet will attack the allied Land Base. A text alert saying '''"Enemy formation approaching! Enemy aircraft are approaching our base." (敵編隊接近中！我が航空基地に敵機接近中。)''' will appear in the map screen and the Raid will follow shortly.

===Last Dance===
"'''Last Dance'''" (LD) is the last state of a given map phase.
*It is typically reached when the HP gauge of the given phase is depleted to the point of 1 boss kill being left to clear the phase.
**[[Transport Operation]]s are therefore not applicable to this state.
*Most normal maps do not have such a state, it only being a thing for most "extra operations" and almost all [[event]] maps having an HP bar.
Once LD is reached, the enemy formations will change, becoming harder, and ranging from:
*Only the boss changing form,
**If available, the boss CG will change from its normal one to its "LD" one.
*Ships in the boss node changing form/configuration,
*Ships on the rest of the map changing form/configuration.
*As formations are changing, this can also affect the [[drop]] tables, rendering some ships only or not droppable in LD.
When applicable, boss [[debuff]] will become possible.
*Other gimmicks may also become available, such as shortcuts unlocking.
In some cases, once clear, the map will either:
*Come back to its "pre-LD" state,
*Evolve to the next map phase if available,
*Evolve to a "post-LD" state, usually similar yet different than the "pre-LD" state.
**If applicable, boss [[debuff]] will be applied, even if not unlocked before.
