*The second shelling phase moves from the top to the bottom of the combat line.

*The second shelling phase (if it applies) has an initial firing order of all ships normally capable of attacking during shelling phase, alternating between sides.

:*Ships unable to attack at all in the shelling phase (''i.e.'' submarines) will be skipped, but those normally able to attack but rendered unable to (''e.g.'' damaged carriers) will still take actionless turns.

*Ships unable to attack at all in the shelling phase (''e.g.'' all submarines, basic [[Transport Ship Wa-Class]], any carrier carrying no bombers) are not put into the shelling order (during both phases). Ships normally able to attack but rendered unable to (''e.g.'' damaged carriers carrying attack planes) will be included in the shelling order but take actionless turns.

*CVLs and CVs must be in good or lightly damaged condition in order to participate in shelling phases, with the exception of Armored Aircraft Carriers (''e.g.'' [[Taihou]]) who can still attack while moderately damaged.
