Sandbox/Winter 2022 E-5

Sandbox Rules

This sandbox is to be used to construct an event guide for the above-mentioned event map. These guides are to all of the following requirements:

• List of branching unlocking requirements (If there are multiple requirements, compositions for each path along with the below requirements will be needed to discuss the unlocking requirements in question)
• A list of working compositions that work: (These must have possible alternatives for players who may or may not have all ships needed for a specific path)
• The Path said composition will take (To explain what path the composition will take)
• A summary or description of what kind of obstacles a composition will face.
• A description of the boss node, what it consists and a descriptive guide on what the player should consider for a course of action to successfully win the battle.
• (Optional) Tips to farm to take the path to collect certain ships (This will also require a composition, path, and possible description.

Editors are to construct their own version of their guide and complete them in a timely fashion.

No other editors are to allowed to edit over other editors' work without the full consent of the editor and his approval to do so.

Several versions will be constructed through this page and will be reviewed and approved by the staff/ collaboration committee before being moved for the Summer 2020 Event which it'll be reviewed and updated once more before it can be released.

Overall there will be 3 versions of the guide that will be constructed which will include:

• Preliminary Guide
• Polished Guide
• Finalized Guide

With each approval of each version of the guide, the said guide will be updated to the main page, and construction of the next version will begin.

All guides outside of the approved version will be removed and work will begin from the approved version to make it better for the next version until the finalized version is made.

Heavy Land Base Bomber LBAS mechanic

On E5 a new mechanic is introduced to what has been referred to as a "Heavy Land Base Bomber Air Raid" sequence. Unlike previous mechanics in the game, this mechanic will require monitoring and timing of releasing your Land Base Air Squadrons to successfully intercept the enemy air raid by pressing a button at the right time.

This means that the fleet and the map must monitored at all time until the land base sequence occurs.

The heavy air raid will occur at random at any given point during E5 and may even in some instance not happen at all.

For now the following information will be provided to help organize a better land base defense unit to successfully intercept against the air raid:

• When the land base sequence occurs, you will need to wait for the button to appear on screen and then press it at the right time to trigger the best results from your LBAS.
  • Pressing the button before 2.5 seconds or after 3 seconds after it appears will result less land base planes appearing provide defense.
  • Pressinfg between 2.5 - 3 seconds will result in the best result from your LBAS defense.
  • Heavy Land Base Air Raids will consist of up to 2-3 Waves once the sequence starts
  • Your land base will need to be armed with planes that can provide high altitude interceptions or fighting planes armed with diagonal upward guns which includes the following planes:
    • Raiden
    • Type 2 Two-seat Fighter Toryuu
    • Type 2 Two-seat Fighter Toryuu Model C
    • Ki-96
    • Prototype Shuusui
    • Shuusui
    • Me 163B
    • Reppuu Kai
    • Reppuu Kai (352 Air Group/Skilled)

As of current the exact bonus provided from all these planes are not fully known and require more investigation.
