E-7 is a complicated map that has multiple requirements across different phases, with a total of '''three''' different shiplocks on Hard. (There are no shiplocks on all other difficulties.) This preliminary guide is written with the assumption that the player is playing on Hard difficulty. Nevertheless, the ships used and options listed here are broadly applicable regardless of difficulty.

This is arguably the most straightforward boss of the map; the battles along the route are more difficult to pass than the boss node itself. While there are bonus ships for this phase, you probably want to save some of them for later parts of the map where they have higher utility; examples include [[Kongou]] and [[Haruna]], as well as [[Myoukou]] and [[Naganami]], and possibly [[Junyou]], all of which are arguably better deployed in CTF instead for later parts of the map. However, ships such as [[Kawakaze]], [[Umikaze]], and [[Kuroshio]] are useful for this part because of their anti-installation capabilities.
