** Having [[Hayasui]] in the second fleet may force you to Node N.
  −
**Using [[Kongou]] and [[Haruna]] along with 2 CV / CVB will allow you to use [[Bismarck]] in your fleet and 2 CLT without being sent to Node N.
  −
**Adding in [[Choukai]] in escort along with 2 CV/ CVB will also allow 2 CLT to be used without being sent to node N.
  −
**If [[Kongou]], [[Haruna]] or [[Choukai]] along with 2 CVs or less are not in the fleet and more than one CLT and [[Bismarck]] is present. You'll be forced to Node N.
  −
**If '''everything in the above mentioned restrictions is not within the fleet that force you to node N''' and you have only 1 CLT you will be allowed to use a fleet composition of any choice including the number of CVs you can bring in a Carrier Task Force and be able to go to '''Node M'''.
   
*Due to the Distance your [[Land-Based Air Squadron]]s must travel to reach the boss node, you will need to prepare to use a [[Type 2 Flying Boat]] or [[PBY-5A_Catalina]] on each squadron you wish to attack the boss node.

**[[PBY-5A_Catalina]] can only extend the reach by 2 meaning any planes used from there will need to have a range of 7

**If you lack the planes to travel that distance, it's recommended to target Node I with Land Attackers and fighters since a [[Harbour Summer Princess]] and [[Supply Depot Princess]] is present at that node.

**In any case, the boss node on hard possesses two Tsu or Tsu-Elite CLs, making running air support here a risky proposition
