<center>'''Important Notice''': <br> ''The E-5 boss's armor will be reduced and will not regenerate from December 7th onward for admirals on the Truk Anchorage server. <br>For other servers, during the last hours of December 8th the E-5 boss's armor will not regenerate.''</center>

The Fall 2015 event "Charge! Maritime Transport Operation" will start November 18th, 2015. The event will be medium-scaled and will feature combined fleets. The Kancolle dev team has hinted the event will be taking place in a "circular island" in the Southern Seas. Within that location, there will be several battles and "transportation operations". The event map will therefore likely be a series of battles that took place at [[wikipedia:Kolombangara|Kolombangara]].

If this is true, expect the majority of the events battles to consist of smaller fleets performing "Tokyo Express" runs. The dev team have hinted that well-trained destoyers and light cruisers will be key to clearing the event. Since most of the battles at Kolombongara were small engagements, sorties will likely be inspired by  the [[Wikipedia:Battle of Kula Gulf|Battle of Kula Gulf]], [[Wikipedia:Battle of Kolombangara|The Battle of Kolombangara]], and the [[Wikipedia:Battle of Vella Gulf|Battle of Vella Gulf]]. Some maps may feature only night battles. In addition, there will be some engagement involving larger fleets such as battleships and aircraft carriers. These will be combined fleet operations.

*[[Shigure]], [[Kawakaze]] and [[Sendai]] are needed for branching; this skips a sub node and allows the ACG route. Without the third ship, [[Shigure]] and either of the other two go through ACEH, which contains [[PT Imp Group]]s.

*The Destoyer Water Demon has rather high armor making her hard to take down. You will need to debuff her armor to make it possible to beat her more easily. To do this, you will need to destroy 15 [[PT Imp Group]]s ''while you're on the HP (red) gauge''. If done correctly, when you confront the Destroyer Water Demon, her abyssal helmet will be removed from her head indicating she has lost her armor. Remember that the debuff resets at 5 AM JST (except on the last day).
