*Line Ahead is more likely to help with clearing out the preboss node as quickly as possible. Vanguard may be viable, but your mileage may vary (especially since only 1 ship in the fleet is a DD).

*Send both LBAS to the boss equipped for Air Parity (64th/54th/T1 M34 LBAA/T1 M34 LBAA + T21(Skilled)/T21(Skilled)/LBAA/LBAA), and have about 330 FP on your main fleet, if you want to achieve AS at the boss node.

**Unlike the Ten-Gou comp, AS is much more helpful here as your BBs will be able to use artillery spotting to clear out the enemy fleet more quickly before the night battle phase.

This come can indeed be probably one of the more easier ways to successfully clear the map, but it will present a possible issue in later event maps as [[Nagato]], [[Mutsu]], [[Ise]], [[Hyuuga]], [[Fusou]] and [[Yamashiro]] are all relevant to '''Pearl Harbor''' if possible, you can consider using foreign battleships if you have any. But keep in mind that some of them such as [[Gangut]] will have importance in later maps as well. Locking your BBs here can mean the difference between running a fleet for EO or being forced to possibly reduce the difficulty. Like the previous comp, in-route and boss support is recommended.

If you are uncertain, avoid using this composition until more information is updated regarding this comp once EO maps are released.

You will need considerable a means to protect your land base bombers to a degree, but due to the amount of air power + Tsu-class (especially flagship on hard) there will always be a chance your bombers will be shot down and loose rank. Because of this, you need to be ready to deal with this factor and accpet that you'll need to retrain your planes.

This comp is mainly a defensive measure meant to protect your fleet along the way if you feel you need a defensive measure. It'll be useful only under certain comps so please carefully consider only if you really need to find a way to access a safe way through the air attack nodes.
