Participants: All ships except:

*Ships with longer range have priority.

* [[:Category:Submarines|SS]] and SSVs

:*Ships on the same side tied in range will break ties randomly and assigned order within that side.

* [[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]], [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]], [[:Category:Armored Carriers|CVBs]] not carrying any bombers

*The firing order is set as Allied Order #1 → Enemy Order #1 → Allied Order #2 → …

* [[Hayasui#Upgrade|Hayasui Kai]] if she is equipped with any {{BluePlane}} torpedo bombers and all are shot down

:*The firing order is set at the start of the round; ships sunk or incapacitated before their turn is simply removed from the firing order.

* Basic [[Transport Ship Wa-Class]]. <br/>

;Shelling, 2nd Round (Lineup Order)

Participants: All ships except [[:Category:Submarines|SS]], [[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]] and [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]] not carrying any bombers, and basic [[Transport Ship Wa-Class]]. <br/> Firing order is set at start of this round by alternating ships on each side that are normally capable of attacking during shelling rounds.

*'''Only occurs when either side has a [[:Category:Battleships|BB]], [[:Category:Aviation Battleships|BBV]], or the enemy has one of the special ship classes (鬼 ''Oni''/Ogress, 姫 ''Hime/''Princess) that acts like a BB/BBV.'''

:*For example, {{nihongo|[[Destroyer Princess]]|駆逐棲姫}} does not, while {{nihongo|[[Battleship Princess]]|戦艦棲姫}} does. The distinction between [[Enemy Vessel#Bosses|Bosses]] that do and those that do not trigger this phase is not always clear from their names.

Participants: Same criteria as 1st round. <br/> Firing order is set at start of this round by alternating ships on each side that are normally capable of attacking during shelling rounds.

*Ships higher in lineup have priority.

*Ships higher in lineup have priority.

:*Only ships qualifying as Participant will be put in the lineup. For example, allied flagship is a CVL that is not carrying a bomber; 2nd round shelling would begin with the allied ship in the 2nd slot in the lineup (if it's capable of attacking).
