'''Exceptions'''
The following are exceptions to the usual combat flow:
* [[Combined Fleet#Combat Flow|Combined Fleet]] engagements which have their own flow. Please see the page for more details.
*Note that certain ships (Ooyodo, Maruyu, base Chitose, base Chiyoda) have initial innate torpedo value of 0; without modernization they cannot participate in closing torpedo salvo.
* '''Air Battle''' nodes that can be found in 1-6 and some event maps that just consists of two airstrikes.
* '''Air Raid''' nodes that can be found in 6-5 and some event maps that just consist of a single airstrike.
* '''Night Battle''' nodes that can be found in 5-3 and some event maps are just have the night battle stage.
* '''Night/Day''' nodes that can be found on some event maps begin with a night battle then proceed to day.
* '''RADAR Ambush''' nodes that can be found on some event maps where your fleet takes a support shelling attack. There is no formation selection.
* All ships with current HP <= 25% of Max HP
*[[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]], [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]], and [[:Category:Armored Carriers|CVBs]] (except [[Graf Zeppelin]], [[Standard Carrier Wo-Class]] (Flagship or higher), and [[Light Carrier Nu-Class]] (flagship or higher).
*[[Transport Ship Wa-Class]].
*The order differs from 2nd Shelling Round in that it does not "skip" ships already sunk prior to the start of the round.
==Formation Selection==
==Formation Selection==
When you have 4 or more ships in the fleet, you will be required to select a formation before entering combat.
*Combined fleet uses a different set of formations unless it is a night battle only node. Click [[Combined Fleet#Fleet Formations|here]] for details.
* Fleets with 3 or less ships default to '''Line Ahead'''.
* Combined fleets use a different set of formations unless it is a night battle only node. Please see the [[Combined Fleet#Fleet Formations|Combined Fleet]] page for details.

==Opening Stages==
:*Torpedoes are fired from all ships simultaneously, and accuracy is affected by the selected Formation type.
:*Ships capable of firing in this phase will launch torpedo even if suffering moderate / heavy damage (which prevents launching torpedo during Closing Torpedo phase).
:*Opening torpedoes will prioritize targeting ships that can be damaged by them. If no such target exists, the torpedo will launch but always miss.

'''Important Notes:''''
*Night battle power depends on both the Firepower and Torpedo stats for attack power. Consequently, DDs, CLs, CLTs and CAs have drastically increased strength at night.
* The values are datamined from KanColle Kai for the Vita. Testing on the browser version has corroborated these values.
*Any vessel at night must not be heavily damaged (red) in order to attack in night battle.
** Values for vanguard are vague because it was never introduced into KanColle Kai.
*Certain combination of weapon equipment ([[List of Main Guns by stats|Main Guns]], [[List of Secondary Guns by stats|Secondary Guns]], [[List of Torpedoes by stats|Torpedoes]]) will cause Cut-In or Double Attacks at night, greatly increasing accuracy and/or firepower
*The surface firepower modifier applies to only shelling and torpedo attacks.
*Diamond formation is only available when you have 5 or more ships in the fleet.
*'''Flagship protection''' is the situation where a non-flagship ship protects the flagship from being damaged by receiving the attack instead.
*Damage against submarines is greatly reduced during regular Night Battles (to scratch damage).
*The animation for ships equipped with 2 different torpedoes may be different but the power output is still the same.
'''Vanguard Special Mechanics'''
* Vanguard is only available during event periods.
** When it is available, it is usable in all maps.
* Vanguard has two values because ships have different bonuses depending on their position in the fleet.
** For a fleet with 6 or 7 ships, the top row applies to ships 1-3 and the bottom row applies to ships 4-6/7.
** For a fleet with 4 or 5 ships, the top row applies to ships 1-2 and the bottom row applies to ships 2-4/5.
* '''Attacks from support fleets are affected by the top row multipliers.'''
* Ships at the bottom of a fleet have an increased chance of being targeted by the enemy. See above for how position is determined.
** Ships at the top (slots 1-2 or 1-3) have a ~25% chance of being targeted.
** Ships at the bottom (slots 3-5 or 4-7) have a ~75% chance of being targeted.
** See [https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/972247479956615168] for tested values. Valid as of 09/03/2018.
* Vanguard has a further evasion modifier that is '''post-cap''' depending on the ship's position in the fleet. This is very important because it allows you to hit very high evasion values. See above for how position is determined.
** For ships at the top (slots 1-2 or 1-3): '''Non-destroyers''' get a '''5%''' bonus. '''Destroyers''' get a '''20%''' bonus.
** For the rest of the ships at the bottom (slots 3-5 or 4-7): '''Non-destroyers''' get a '''20%''' bonus. '''Destroyers''' get a '''40%''' bonus.
** See https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/972244541783793664] for tested values. Valid as of 09/03/2018.
*The game rounds off values at 2 places in the calculation: after pre-cap modifier and after the critical modifier. They are marked by square brackets in the above calculations.
===Choosing a Formation===
*''If Damage is less than 1, the attack deals '''scratch damage''' instead, which is 6-14% of target's current HP, rounded down (can be 0).''
[[File:Formation_Selection_Screen.png|thumb|right|Formation Selection Screen]]
* '''Line Ahead'''
*''This formula is under constant review and updated accordingly if there are any inconsistencies or mistakes.''
: This formation has the highest damage output for surface combat but poor anti-submarine. It will be the default formation you use for any surface combat node.
* '''Double Line'''
: This formation has high shelling and anti-submarine accuracy in exchange for lowered damage output. Because of how easy it is to increase accuracy in this game, it's accuracy benefits are negligible. It's main use is for engaging mixed surface and submarine fleets. The other use is for triggering [[Nelson]]'s special attack.
* '''Diamond'''
: This formation boasts the highest anti-air modifier. It's primary use is for air raid and air battle nodes in order to mitigate airstrike damage.
* '''Echelon'''
: This formation is similar to Double Line in effectiveness. You would not be picking this over double line. It's main purpose is to trigger the special attacks for [[Nagato]], [[Mutsu]] and [[Colorado]].
** Echelon was improved in the [[Game Updates/2019/Feburary 27th|February 27th 2019]] update.
* '''Line Abreast'''
: This formation has the best anti-submarine multiplier but has the worst surface damage modifiers. It is only to be used for submarine-only nodes.
* '''Vanguard'''
: This formation is used to help fleets pass through difficult nodes where it is unlikely you are able to sink the enemy before they deal heavy damage to your fleet. The post-cap evasion bonus allows destroyers to hit very high evasion rates. Combined with the preferential targeting, it means destroyers in the bottom slots can function as evasion tanks.
: Care must be taken as this formation has very poor damage multipliers for the top slots. While placing your powerful ships in here means they can be protected by your destroyers, it also means that their combat effectiveness is reduced. This can result in the enemy being given more attacks on your fleet.
: Since the damage multipliers in the top slot affect your support fleet, this can '''severely reduce''' the effectiveness of support.
===<u>Base Attack Power</u>===
==Detection==
[[File:Successfull_Detection.png|thumb|right|Successfull Detection]]
The detection phase involves your fleet attempting to find the enemy fleet. Success is determined by the {{LOS}} of your fleet. If you fail detection your fleet will be '''unable to participate in the aerial combat phase'''. This will result in automatic Air Incapability.
|-
|Shelling (Carriers)
| {[Firepower + Torpedo + Effective Bonus (Shelling) + (Dive Bomb × 1.3)] × 1.5} + 55
''Night'': 250% (if [[Type 3 Shell]] Equipped) × [Firepower + Effective Bonus (Night Battle) + Night Contact Modifier (+5 if [[Type 98 Recon Seaplane (Night Scout)]] triggered)] + WG42 Bonus
This applies to all land-base enemies that Type 3 Shell is effective against.
* It is possible to succeed without any reconnaissance planes but there will be no recon plane animation.
* It is possible to lose recon planes on failing detection.
* [[#Formation Selection|Formation Modifier]] (see "Firepower modifier")
* Although the display indicates that {{Hit}} and {{Evasion}} has changed on success or failure. Testing has shown that it has no noticeable effect.
* [[#Night_Attack_Modifier|Night Attack Modifier]]
====Ship's Health Modifier====
==Jet Assault==
If there are jets in your fleet, you will have a preemptive attack with them. Jets are subject to interception from other jets and anti-air fire from the enemy fleet. For more details please see [[Aerial Combat]] and [[Anti-Air Fire]].
* Jets follow the dive bomber rules when calculating damage.
* Jets will attempt to intercept enemy jets.
* Jets will also participate in the regular aerial combat phase. This means they have to pass through interception and anti-air fire '''twice''' per battle.
* Currently there are only two jets in game:
** [[Kikka Kai]]
** [[Jet Keiun Kai]]
==Land Based Bombing==
[[File:LBAS_Attack.png|thumb|right|Type 96 LBAA attacking Enemy Fleet]]
In 6-4, 6-5 and some event maps, you will have access to Land-Based Air Squadrons. When active, it will send a number of waves to bomb the enemy fleet. For more details, please see [[Land-Based Air Squadron]].
* Sonars (i.e. Type 93, Type 3, Type 4, and Type 0 Sonars)
* The land based planes are subject to interception and anti-air fire.
* They can be depleted by raids on your air base.
* Depth Charges - DCs (i.e. Type 95 DC and Type 2 DC)
'''Jet Land Based Bombing'''
If you have jets in your land base, they will perform a [[Combat#Jet Assault|jet assault]] before the land based bombing. All the same rules for jet assault apply.
==Aerial Combat==
In this phase, both fleets will send out fighters and bombers (if they have any) to contest air control and bomb the opposing fleet. For more details, please see [[Aerial Combat]], [[Damage Calculations#Bombing|Bombing]] and [[Anti-Air Fire]].
| Launcher '''and''' Depth Charge Only
Aerial combat will proceed in the following order:
* Air combat
* Contact
* Fleet Anti-Air Defense
* Airstrike
==Support Fleet==
[[File:Support_Expedition.png|thumb|right|Support Expedition appearing]]
In World 5 and events, you will be able to send fleets on support expeditions. If a fleet is on a support expedition, there is a chance they will arrive to assist you with an attack. The damage done and effectiveness depends on the type of support expedition used. Please see [[Expeditions#Support_Expeditions|Support Expeditions]] for more details.
|style="text-align:center;"|Special Attack <br/>(Double Attack and Cut-In Attack)
|style="text-align:center;"|120% for Double Attack. <br/>Varies for Cut-In Attack depending on type. <br/>See [[#Night Battle Special Attacks|here]] for details.
* It is possible to lose planes from Airstrike Support if the enemy has opposing air power.
==Opening Attacks==
There are two different opening attacks that can be triggered if certain conditions are met; Opening Anti-Submarine Attacks and Opening Torpedo Attacks. For more details on how damage is calculated, please see [[Damage Calculations]].
* Opening attacks are affected by engagement modifiers even though it only appears after this phase.
===Opening Anti-Submarine (OASW)===
If the fleet possesses ships capable of performing OASW, they will begin attacking submarines '''in order of range'''. The firing order will be random among ships with the same range. This phase can disable opening torpedo attacks from enemy submarines if you manage to sink them. For more details, please see [[Opening Anti-Submarine Warfare]].
===<u>Post-Cap Modifiers</u>===
===Opening Torpedo===
If the fleet possesses ships capable of opening torpedo attacks, they will launch torpedoes '''simultaneously'''.
* Opening torpedoes can be fired by [[:Category:Submarines|submarines]] over level 10, any ship equipped with [[:Category:Midget Submarine|midget submarines]] and the elite [[Battleship Re-Class]].
* [[Combat#Critical Modifier|Critical Hits]]
* Targets will be picked at random but will prioritise surface ships.
* Opening torpedoes can be launched even at moderate or heavy damage; which would disable closing torpedoes.
* [[Combat#AP Shell|AP Shell]]
===Critical Modifier===
==Shelling==
This phase is where the majority of combat takes place. Surviving ships in both fleets will take turns exchanging fire. The order detailed here only applies to '''single fleet''' engagements. For shelling order in combined fleet engagements, please see [[Combined Fleet]].
===Engagement Form===
[[File:Engagement_Example.png|thumb|right|Red T Engagement is declared]]
Before the shelling phase begins, the game will roll for one of the following 4 engagements.

* All engagement forms '''affect both sides equally''', including crossing the T (<span style="color:green">Advantage</span> or <span style="color:red">Disadvantage</span>).
* Night battle and aerial combat are '''not affected by engagement'''.
* OASW and opening torpedoes are '''affected by engagement''' even though it is only displayed after those phases.
*Equipping a {{Template:YellowPlane}}[[Saiun]] effectively makes what would have been Crossing the T (Disadvantage) become Head-on engagement.
====Artillery Spotting====
===Shelling===
Following the engagement display, ships will begin the shelling phase. This phase is divided into two and involves both surface shelling, aircraft carrier shelling and ASW attacks.
The following general rules apply for both shelling phases:
* Each fleet will take turns shelling.
* (F)BB(V)s
** It is possible to skip a turn if the ship that is supposed to shell is sunk.
* CA(V)s
* Aircraft carriers will not attack if they have no bombers.
* CV(B)s
* ASW capable ships will be forced to attack submarines.
* All land installations
** Exceptions are [[Suzuya|Suzuya Kai Ni Kou]] and [[Kumano|Kumano Kai Ni Kou]].
* All Bosses who are one of the above (鬼、姫、水鬼…) <ref>For example, there is no bonus against Destroyer Princess, or Air Defense Princess, as they are classified as Destroyers</ref>
* Some ships are capable of performing special attacks during shelling. Please see [[Artillery Spotting]], [[Carrier Cut-In Attack]] and [[Damage Calculations#Touch Special Attack|Touch Special Attack]].
====1st Shelling Phase====
In this phase, both fleets will take turns shelling with the order based off the ship's range. It is possible to modify their range with equipment.
* The order is Very Long → Long → Medium → Short → Very Short.
** Ships with the same range will have their turn chosen randomly.
** Only Abyssal ships have Very Short range.
====2nd Shelling Phase====
If there is a battleship present in the battle, there will be a 2nd shelling phase. The battleship does not have to be alive for the 2nd shelling phase to trigger. The order is based off fleet position with the 1st ship going 1st.
* '''Either diminishing returns or a hard cap on luck over 50 for torpedo cut-ins.''' ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#I_-_Luck.2C_Placement_.26_Night_Battle_Cut-In_Chances source 1], [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#II_-_Searchlight_.26_Cut-In_Chances 2])
* Ships that are sunk or unable to participate at all in shelling will have their turn passed on to the next eligible ship.
* Ships normally able to participate in shelling but rendered unable will be counted but do nothing on their turn.
* '''Either diminishing returns or a hard cap on luck over 40 for three gun cut-ins.''' ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#V_-_Health_State_.26_Cut-In_Chances source])
===Anti-Sub Warfare===
==Closing Attacks==
In this phase, any ship with a torpedo stat will fire a closing torpedo. Any ship with a base torpedo stat of 0 will not participate.
* It will target surface ships at random.
* It will not trigger if there are no targets available.
* Ships at moderate or heavy damage will not participate in this phase.
* Accuracy, damage and evasion are affected by formation and engagement.
==Night Battle==
[[File:Night_Attack_Example.png|thumb|right|Uranami using a cut-in-Attack during Nightbattle]]
Following the end of day, you will have a choice to participate in night battle. For more details, please see [[Night Battle]] and [[Damage Calculations#Night Battle|Damage Calculations]]
* Firing order is based off position in the fleet.
*Taiyou (not Kasuga Maru) can utilize OASW under the following conditions: She must have a nominal ASW value of 65 or higher, and must also be equipped with a Type 97 Torpedo Bomber (931 Air Group).
** Turns can be skipped if a ship is sunk or disabled before they can take their turn.
*[[Taiyou|Taiyou Kai]], [[Taiyou|Taiyou Kai Ni]], [[Shinyou|Shinyou Kai]], [[Shinyou|Shinyou Kai Ni]], [[Zuihou|Zuihou Kai Ni B]], and [[Gambier Bay|Gambier Bay Kai]] all require a nominal ASW value of 65 or higher, and at least '''one Torpedo Bomber''' (of any type) that has a '''+7 ASW''' stat must also be equipped.
* Heavily damaged ships are unable to participate.
* It is unaffected by engagement.
* Certain equipment setups will allow you to perform special double attacks or cut-ins.

'''Important Notes'''
* B-ranks are the minimum victory requirements for:
** Obtaining drops.
** Clearing a map without a boss gauge.
** Counting for quest victories (where minimum rank is unspecified).
* A-ranks are the minimum victory requirements for obtaining rare drops in most cases.
* S-ranks are the minimum victory requirements for obtaining the rarest drops.
** It also has the best drop rates out of all the victory conditions.
** Perfect S (Total Victory) ranks count as a regular S-rank. It has no extra bonuses.
====Four Slots====
=MVP=
At the end of combat, one ship is picked as the MVP. She gains bonuses to exp and morale. For more details, please see [[Experience and Rank]] and [[Morale and Fatigue]].
The following is how the MVP is determined:
* The ship which deals the highest total damage is awarded MVP.
*All enemy ships sunk and Enemy Damage Gauge is 0%.
** The damage is not weighted. I.e. 300 damage to a battleship counts the same as 300 damage to a destroyer.
** Even though you cannot reduce enemy below 1 in PvP, overkill damage is counted even though it isn't displayed.
* If multiple ships are tied for damage, the way MVP is determined is unknown.
* In the event where no damage is dealt to the enemy, the flagship automatically becomes MVP.
** It usually happens in air raid and RADAR ambush nodes.
* In the event of an E-rank, MVP is not awarded to anyone.
* In a Combined Fleet, MVP is determined separately for the main and escort fleets.
*Enemy flagship alive, friendly ship sunk, A victory condition met, Damage gauge at least 2.5 times of the enemy damage gauge.
*Enemy flagship alive, damage gauge lower than enemy gauge (C is possible under this condition if both sides have a high gauge)
*Enemy flagship alive, over a certain number of friendly ships sunk. (see below)
