Transport Operations are currently an '''Event Only Mechanic''' which has made a continued appearance since the [[Fall 2015 Event]]. The main objective of Transport Operations is to transport supplies to the Transport Drop-off and obtain enough Transport Points until the Transport Gauge is cleared.

When an admiral is assigned to perform a transport operation, they will be assigned use a certain set of kanmusus to partake in transporting supplies to a certain location on the map. The '''Transport drop off location''' is marked as a green node with a green flag on the map. The objective of the fleet will be to reach the drop off point and then successfully survive clear the boss node that will generally follow the transport drop off point. If the player is successful at beating the boss node with an A or S rank, they will be able to deplete the '''TP gauge'''. Once depleted, the transport operation will be complete.

Transport Operations are an event mechanic that was introduced during the [[Fall 2015 Event]]. Unlike the usual map-clearing mechanic, completing a Transport Operation does not require to kill the boss.
  
Depending on the map, this will either be part of a phase of the map, or it will be considered complete once the transport operation is complete. If the objective is to only complete the transport operation you will not need to defeat the boss abyssal to complete the map, you will only need an '''A rank''' at a bare minimum if successfully depletes the '''TP gauge's bar'''.

The objective of the Transport Operation is to deplete a '''Transport (TP)''' gauge/bar.
 +
* The amount of TP that needs to be depleted varies by difficulty and map.
 +
The TP Gauge is depleted each time the fleet reaches a '''"Transport Loadout Node"''' (a node marked with a green flag) and then scores an '''A+ rank''' at the boss, with S ranks depleting more points than A ranks.
 +
* Ships that are {{color|red|'''heavily damaged (大破)'''}}, [[Evacuation|evacuated]], or sunk, are not counted towards gauge depletion.
 +
The boss does not need to be sunk at any point.
 +
* Sinking it may be advisable to get S ranks and so deplete the gauge faster.
 +
* In the eventuality there is no boss node after the TP node, then just reaching the node is enough, counting as an S rank all the time.
 +
Those phases are usually completed by a single fleet or a "[[Combined_Fleet#Combined Fleet Types|Transport Escort Force]]" (TCF).
  
These maps can either use a single fleet or a [[Combined_Fleet#Normal_Node_-_Carrier_Task_Force_.2F_Transport_Escort_Fleet|Transport Escort Combined Fleet]].

[[1-6]] behaves similarly to Transport Operations, but is not one, being much simpler.

==Depleting the TP Gauge==
+
TP gauge reduction is calculated using the following formula:
[[File:Transport Supply notice.png|thumb|right|When your fleet reaches the transport drop-off point, you will receive a notice which shows how much transport equipment you brought with your fleet which will count toward you TP score. In this case, this fleet was equipped with 10 [[drum canister|drum canisters]] and 1 [[daihatsu]].]]
+
{{Formula
The TP gauge acts like an HP gauge in the sense of how much materials you have transported already. Mechanically, there are three factors when calculating how much TP gauge will be depleted in a run: (1) Result at boss node, (2) Equipment carried by the fleet, and (3) Ships used in the fleet. The TP gauge depletion is calculated this way:<br>
+
|Title=Damage Formula
[math] \text{TP Drain} = \text{Floor[Boss Rank Modifier} \times \text{(} \sum^\text{All equipment slots} \text{Equipment TP Value} + \sum^\text{All ships in fleet} \text{Ship TP Value)]} [/math]
+
|Math=\text{TP}_\text{drain} = \Bigg\lfloor \bigg\lfloor \Big( \sum_\text{All equipment} \text{TP}_\text{equip} + \sum_\text{All ships} \text{TP}_\text{ship} \Big) \bigg\rfloor \times \text{Mod}_\text{rank} \Bigg\rfloor
 +
|Var= <math>\text{Mod}_\text{rank}</math> the rank modifier, being:
 +
**'''1.0''' for S ranks,
 +
**'''0.7''' for A ranks,
 +
**'''0''' otherwise.
 +
* <math>\text{TP}_\text{equip}</math> the Equipment TP value, described ''[[#Equipment TP|below]]''.
 +
* <math>\text{TP}_\text{ship}</math> the Ship TP value, described ''[[#Ship TP|below]]''.
 +
**It is '''0''' for all shipw being either heavily damaged, [[Evacuation|evacuated]], or sunk.
 +
}}
  
Note that the equipment factor and the ship factor only calculates the equipment and ships in the fleet as it reaches the drop-off point. Having fewer ships and/or equipment when the point is reached will reduce the amount of TP Drain, but ships/equipment no longer present in fleet ''after'' the drop-off point is reached will not affect the final TP Drain.

This modifier is simple: 1.0 for S-rank victory, 0.7 for A-rank victory, and 0 (none) for B-rank or worse. Because of this, it is critical that a fleet is able to sink 4 or more ships at the boss node (which is the minimum requirement for A-rank victory).

Example of an event map with a transport operation from Winter 2016.

Transport Operations are an event mechanic that was introduced during the Fall 2015 Event. Unlike the usual map-clearing mechanic, completing a Transport Operation does not require to kill the boss.

Overview

The objective of the Transport Operation is to deplete a Transport (TP) gauge/bar.

  • The amount of TP that needs to be depleted varies by difficulty and map.

The TP Gauge is depleted each time the fleet reaches a "Transport Loadout Node" (a node marked with a green flag) and then scores an A+ rank at the boss, with S ranks depleting more points than A ranks.

  • Ships that are heavily damaged (大破), evacuated, or sunk, are not counted towards gauge depletion.

The boss does not need to be sunk at any point.

  • Sinking it may be advisable to get S ranks and so deplete the gauge faster.
  • In the eventuality there is no boss node after the TP node, then just reaching the node is enough, counting as an S rank all the time.

Those phases are usually completed by a single fleet or a "Transport Escort Force" (TCF).

1-6 behaves similarly to Transport Operations, but is not one, being much simpler.

TP Gauge Depletion

TP gauge reduction is calculated using the following formula:

Damage Formula
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{TP}_\text{drain} = \Bigg\lfloor \bigg\lfloor \Big( \sum_\text{All equipment} \text{TP}_\text{equip} + \sum_\text{All ships} \text{TP}_\text{ship} \Big) \bigg\rfloor \times \text{Mod}_\text{rank} \Bigg\rfloor }[/math]
With
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mod}_\text{rank} }[/math] the rank modifier, being:
    • 1.0 for S ranks,
    • 0.7 for A ranks,
    • 0 otherwise.
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{TP}_\text{equip} }[/math] the Equipment TP value, described below.
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{TP}_\text{ship} }[/math] the Ship TP value, described below.
    • It is 0 for all shipw being either heavily damaged, evacuated, or sunk.
When the fleet reaches the "Transport Loadout Node", a notice will show how much transport equipment is brought with the fleet which will count toward the TP score. In this case, this fleet was equipped with 10 Drums and 1 Landing Craft.
Once the TP Gauge is successfully depleted, it will explode before either the map is considered complete or moves on to another Gauge.

Equipment TP

The following equipment increase the TP drain for Transport Operations.

  • Those bonuses stacks infinitly, regardless of the exact equipment.
Equipment S-Rank A-Rank
Landing Craft Landing Craft 8.0 5.6
Drum Canister Drum CanistersDrum Canister (Transport Use) 5.0 3.5
Amphibious Vehicle Amphibious Vehicles 2.0 1.4
Ration RationsCombat Ration
Combat Ration (Special Onigiri)
Canned Saury
1.0 0.7
Notes
  • Even so the Supplies Underway ReplenishmentUnderway Replenishment icon is displayed on TP nodes, they do not contribute to TP gauge depletion.

Ship TP

The following ship tyupes increase the TP drain for Transport Operations.

  • Those bonuses are 0 for all ships being either heavily damaged (大破), evacuated, or sunk.
Ship Type S-Rank A-Rank
AO Fleet Oiler 15.0 10.5
LHA Amphibious Assault Ship 12.0 8.4
Kinu Kai NiKinu Kai Ni 10.0 6.8
AV Seaplane Tender 9.0 6.3
BBV Aviation Battleship 7.0 4.9
AS Submarine Tender
CT Training Cruiser 6.0 4.2
DD Destroyer 5.0 3.5
CAV Aviation Cruiser 4.0 2.8
CL Light Cruiser 2.0 1.2
SSV Aircraft Carrying Submarine 1.0 0.7
BB Battleship 0.0 0.0
FBB Fast Battleship
CV Standard Carrier
CVB Armored Carrier
CVL Light Carrier
CA Heavy Cruiser
CLT Torpedo Cruiser
DE Coastal Defense Ships

Tips

  • Stacking only TP equipment can compromise the ability to score an A+ rank and result in no depletion at all. On the other hand, focusing too much on offensive capability may result in minimal gauge depletion even on an S rank.
    • It is ideal to find a balance ranking A+ rank the boss while taking as much TP equipment as possible.
  • When using a Transport Escort Fleet, the escort fleet should be where the combat-focused ship girls are assigned, since the escort may also attack at night.
  • Although Landing Craft deplete the most TP, careful consideration should go into whether using Landing Craft-capable ships is appropriate. Locking key ship when Anti-Installation is required in subsequent maps can result in disaster.
