Ship locking is a system that serves to restrict which maps a certain ship may sortie to.

Ship locking is a system that restricts to which maps a certain ship may be sortied.

For the purposes of this section, consider the Summer 2015 ship locking restrictions

To illustrate, the Summer 2015 ship locking restrictions will be used:

* <span style="color:blue">'''BLUE Tag'''</span>: E1 and E2  

* <span style="color:blue">'''BLUE Tag'''</span>: E1 and E2  

* <span style="color:green">'''GREEN Tag'''</span>: E3 and E6  

* <span style="color:green">'''GREEN Tag'''</span>: E3 and E6  

With the additional restriction for the final map E7:

With the additional restriction for the final map E7:

* '''NOT <span style="color:orange">ORANGE Tag</span>''': E7

* '''Any EXCEPT <span style="color:orange">ORANGE Tag</span>''': E7

<small>n.b. the actual color of the tags were Yellow and Orange, but red has been used for better display</small>

A ship that enters a map for the first time ('''regardless of difficulty''') receives a colored tag for that particular map.  

# A ship that commences a sortie to a map for the first time receives a colored tag for that particular map, if applicable.

#** e.g. Kongou sorties to E1, receiving a blue tag. She may then sortie to E3 (green tag) if and only if the difficulty setting for E3 is easy.

For the rest of the event, that particular ship may only sortie

# Ships that do not have tags may sortie to any event map,  however, once they receive a tag, they are bound by the restrictions

#** e.g. Haruna has not been used yet and is untagged, she may sortie to E7 on medium difficulty. If she then sorties to E5
