'''Preparation'''

On this map, there are several ships that will have historical benifits on this map. A good number of them while useful on this map '''could possible boe useful in later maps'''. So be sure to only use ships you can carefully toss in here while doing this map on Normal and Hard Difficulty. In addition, while there is a mechanic to open a shortcut on this map, completing it isn't entirely nessary.

The [[Heavy Cruiser Princess]] will be of a weaker variant that will consist of some CLs and DDs in her fleet. She will not have any airpower therefore allowing your fleet to get an easy AS if you bring a carrier with some fighter power. In addition to this, you can use an all bomber LBAS group to swiftly take out the majority of the enemy fleet so your fleet can focus more on the Princess.

The most effective way to win is to either have a DD that can TCI or use a ship with historical bonuses such as [[Atago]], [[Takao]], and [[Sendai]] who are most effective against the Princess with a double attack on this map. Which ever method you choose you can make short work of her and eventually you will clear the map with little effort.
