Spring 2015 Event

Introduction

The (currently ongoing) Spring 2015 Event Order! Operation 11 [発令！第十一号作戦] started on April 28th, 2015 and is projected to end on May 17th. The event will be based upon the planned Japanese Operation 11.

Like the Winter 2015 Event, it has selectable difficulties: Operation A (Hard), Operation B (Medium), and Operation C (Easy). This difficulty will be 'locked in' after you complete a map, and your choice of ships is frozen for several maps. This is a long (6 map) event, and though the maps were foretold to be relatively difficult as compared to previous events, the overall response has been that they are rather easy. The event will last for 20 days.

<countdown finishmessage="The event has begun!" time="04/28/2015 09:20 PM UTC+900"> <D> days, <H> hours, <M> minutes and seconds remaining until the Spring 2015 Event begins. </countdown>

Please consider filling out an event report. You can see all of our collected data so far here.

Update notes (From the official twitter)

• 1. Launch of KanColle's 2015 Spring Event: Limited-time-only map areas:
  • The limited-time-only maps of the KanColle 2015 Spring Event "Operation No. 11, Launch!" will be implemented through the ongoing update. Since this marks the 2nd anniversary of the game, this year's spring event will last for approximately 20 days.
• 2. 2015 Spring Event: Main operations (first half of the event):
  • "Main Operations (first half of the event)" will consist of the following four map areas:
    • 1st map: Preparation for Operation No.11
    • 2nd map: Second Curry Ocean Operation
    • 3rd map: Bagel Bay Transport Destruction Battle
    • 4th map: Final Battle! Ri Lanka Island Invasion
• 3. 2015 Spring Event: New Kanmusus:
  • There will be a grand total of 3 new Kanmusus appearing in the Main operations. You can obtain the Unryuu-class standard carrier "Katsuragi" by beating E2, and you can obtain the Western Kanmusu "Littorio" through beating E4.
• 4. 2015 Spring Event: New Kanmusus, cont'd:
  • Along with the 2 Kanmusus introduced above, in the first half of the event, there is a chance you can obtain Yuugumo-class destroyer Takanami in all event maps.
    • NB! You can obtain her through (presumably) beating boss nodes of the latter half of the main operations.
    • NB! Depending on the location within the event map, your odds of obtaining her drastically changes (again, presumably higher on boss nodes)
• 5. About the newly implemented system of "Active Branching":
  • Up to this point, route determination in KanColle was done by compass routing, which could be affected by various conditions such as fleet composition; however, through today's update, some maps will have "Active Branching", a routing system that allows the admiral to determine his/her fleet's route by his/her own decision.
• 6. About the "Combined Fleet":
  • E2 and E4 of the main operations use combined fleet mechanics. You can form a combined fleet by going to the fleet composition menu, then dragging the icon of the 2nd fleet to your 1st fleet (Main fleet).
• 7. About "Support fleets":
  • You can provide support to your fleets or combined fleets fighting in front line by using "support fleets". You can use shelling support or aerial support fleets and send them out to either of the two "support expeditions" to the event map area (pre-boss node support, boss node support) to support your fleet fighting in front line.
• 8. Extra Operations (second half of the event):
  • Upon clearing all maps in the "Main Operation (first half of the event)", you can participate in the Extra Operations of the event. The deadlier of Abyssals are focused in the Extra Operations, which consists of two maps. (NB: E-5 and E-6)
• 9. New Kanmusus (cont'd):
  • In E-6 of the Extra Operations, separate from the earlier 3 Kanmusus introduced, Roma will be obtainable by beating nodes.
    • NB! Depending on the location within the event map your odds of obtaining her drastically changes (again, probably hinting that she is more likely found by boss or pre-boss nodes).
• 10. 2015 Spring Event: New Kanmusus (tot. 5)
  • Also, for admirals whose fleets complete all the Spring Event maps, seaplane tender "Akitsushima" will join the fleet. Although her combat ability isn't top quality, let's welcome her to the fleet! In summary, there will be a total of 5 new Kanmusus appearing in this year's Spring event.
• 11. About "Difficulty Selection":
  • In the spring event maps of "Launch! Operation No. 11", each maps will feature three tiers of difficulty that can be selected by the admiral.
    • NB! All admirals can participate in "Operation C" (Easy).
    • NB! Higher level veteran admirals can participate in "Operation B" (Medium) or "Operation A" (Hard).
• 12. (For admirals doing A- or B-tier difficulties) About difficulty locking:
  • Some maps will give sortie stamps on Kanmusus who sortied out to the map. The Kanmusus with these stamps are unable to participate in any other event maps that will give sortie stamps. Please keep this in mind.
    • NB! This includes E3, E4, and E5.
• 13. New BGM implemented:
  • The main theme of the first half of the event operations "Fight of the Mutsuki-Class Destroyers" and the boss node theme "Combined fleet, to the West" have been implemented. Also, the extra operations have a BGM with the Abyssal threat as its motive. Please look forward to it!
• 14. New equipment implemented:
  • Along with the new Kanmusus introduced in the spring event, the new equipment "二式大艇","381mm/50 triple extended cannon kai", "OTO 152mm triple extended machine gun", "90mm単装高角砲", "90mm単装高角砲" have been implemented.

Mechanics

Participation requirements

• Must have a 75% sortie win ratio.
• Must have 5 empty ship slots for new ships.
• Must have 20 free equipment slots.

Special Mechanics

1. The difficulty system from the Winter 2015 Event is present, with three levels: Operation A (Hard), Operation B (Medium) or Operation C (Easy).
   • However, you must have cleared at least Operation A or Operation B on the previous map to access Operation A (Hard) difficulty for the following map for E-3 and later maps.
   • The difficulty you select will affect most rewards (including experience gain and ship drops). The only exceptions are ships rewarded as map clear bonus.
   • Once you clear a map on a difficulty (besides easy), you will be locked on that difficulty.
2. The ship-locking mechanic will have full sway in this event:
   • Ships used in E3 cannot be used in E4 on medium or hard.
   • Ships used in E3 or E4 cannot be used in E5 on medium or hard
3. E2, E4, and E6 use the Combined Fleet mechanic.

Event Maps

Quick Info Table

Map	Name	Combined?	Locking?	Difficulty Restrictions
E-1	Preparation for Operation No.11	No Combined Fleet	No Ship Locking	No restrictions. All difficulties OK
E-2	Second Curry Ocean Operation	Combined Fleet
E-3	Bagel Bay Transport Destruction Battle	No Combined Fleet	Ships deployed to these maps are tagged separately (tagging will occur even on easy mode); tagged ships will not be allowed to sortie into a different map among these three unless you are playing on easy difficulty. (e.g. a ship deployed to E3 will not be usable in either E4 or E5 unless it's E4 easy or E5 easy)	In order to play these maps on hard, you must complete the previous map on either normal or hard. (e.g., to do E4 on hard, you must complete E3 on normal or hard.)
E-4	Final Battle! Ri Lanka Island Invasion	Combined Fleet
E-5	Attack on Apricot Atoll Anchorage	No Combined Fleet
E-6	Relentless Operation! Across the Stevia Sea	Combined Fleet	No ship locking

E-1

Preparation for Operation No.11 【発動準備、第十一号作戦！】 Information Boss: Heavy Cruiser Ri-Class Kai Accompanied by the Light Cruiser Demon weaker variant on Hard mode's final kill. Requires 5 kills to complete on all difficulties: (甲) (乙) (丙). Sparkling is advised, especially when finishing strong. Rewards upon clearance: Clearing on Hard (甲): Mamiya, Irako, Furniture Fairy, Prototype 51cm Twin Cannon Clearing on Medium (乙): Mamiya, Irako, Furniture Fairy, 46cm Twin Gun Mount Prototype Clearing on Easy (丙): Mamiya, Irako, Furniture Fairy, Prototype 35.6cm Triple Gun Mount Only Destroyers and Light Cruisers can be used.
Branching rules Node B is a non-combat Active Branching node; . Node D is a submarine node. F and C have LoS checks to reach the boss node; this is relatively low (Reports indicate that 46 or above will clear this), so equipping radars on all of your DD and a recon plane on your CL will suffice.
Tips Use a light fleet. Compositions that work: CLx2 DDx4 provides for four high-evasion DDs which have a likelier chance of dodging incoming attacks. CLx3, DDx3 could provide more firing power; however, this will lead to slight evasion drawbacks due to having an extra ship with larger silhouette. Between the North and South branch, South is preferred (Yes, you get a choice of your decision). North route only has one battle before the boss but the node has considerably stronger ships, such as elite and flagship CLTs. South route has four subs in one node that come in at either echelon or line abreast, so they are relatively harmless (but an unfortunate shot can still ruin your day). Second node has very weak and easy-to-clear ships such as I-class (the DDs you clobber in 1-1 for sparkling). Final kill should be same composition and tactics. Refer to this Example Fleet for composition and equipment suggestion.

E-2

Second Curry Ocean Operation 【第二次カレー洋作戦】 Information Combined Fleet Boss: Armored Carrier Princess 6 kills required on all difficulties. Rewards upon clearance: Clearing on Hard (甲): Katsuragi, Suisei (601 Air Group), Type 91 Anti-Aircraft Fire Director, WG42 (Wurfgerät 42) Clearing on Medium (乙): Katsuragi, Suisei (601 Air Group) Clearing on Easy (丙): Katsuragi
Branching rules Using a Carrier Task Force will send you to node C at the start, while a Surface Task Force will send you to node A. Carrier Task Force seems to be slightly easier due to enemy CV-heavy nodes. Node D (on hard) has 3 BBs (including a Kai Flagship), and Node E is rather heavy on enemy CV, so if you are using Surface Task Force, you will have to pick your poison here. Node B and F are Active Branching nodes. LoS check from G to K.
Tips This map is full of enemy carriers, including some Wo-Class Kai; you should bring 3 CV to minimize bauxite loss and defend your fleet. Equipping AP shells will make killing the Armored Carrier Princess much easier. Fleet comps that follow standard Combined Fleet mechanics should suffice. Refer to this Example Fleet for composition and equipment suggestion.

E-3

Bagel Bay Transport Destruction Battle 【 ベーグル湾通商破壊戦】 Information Ship Locking: Ships used here cannot be used in E4 or E5 on normal and hard difficulties. Battleships (Aviation included, fast not included) and Standard Carriers cannot be used here! Boss requires 7 kills to complete on Hard (甲). Boss: Wa-Class Transport Flagship Rewards upon clearance: Clearing on Hard (甲): OTO 152mm triple extended machine gun, Pugliese-Type Underwater Bulkhead, Ryuusei (601 Air Group), 4 Improvement Materials, 1 Medal Clearing on Medium (乙): OTO 152mm triple extended machine gun, Pugliese-Type Underwater Bulkhead, Tenzan (601 Air Group), 3 Improvement Materials, Repair Team Clearing on Easy (丙): Pugliese-Type Underwater Bulkhead, Tenzan (601 Air Group), Repair Team
Branching rules E to J has a LoS check. Standard LoS equipment should be enough to clear the requirement. Keep a radar on DDs. Node D and F are Active Branching nodes. You want to pick node D if you have decently leveled ships that can survive the Light Cruiser Demon at node D. If your ships are lower level, you may want to try going south toward node I though you will suffer from lower ammo and the subsequent penalties
Tips Be aware of the Light Cruiser Demon in one of node D's formations. Node C is a submarine node; take caution. Boss node has a Ta-class battleship Possible formations: CA, CAV, DDx3, CLT - Provides enough firepower to comfortably take out boss node and the DDs should have high enough evasion to mostly dodge any incoming attacks. Enemy ships mostly consist of light ships like DDs, CLs and CLTs. This formation lets you conserve your CVLs if you don't have many. Keep mind you'll likely need up to 6 CV(L)s for E4 and E5. You can use mostly lower-tier ships in this map and save your best DDs and the like (one player cleared with 3 of DesDiv6 as their DDs). Refer to this Example Fleet for composition and equipment suggestion.

E-4

Final Battle! Ri Lanka Island Invasion 【決戦！リランカ島攻略作戦】 Information Combined Fleet Ship Locking: Ships used here cannot be used in E5 on normal and hard difficulties. You cannot use your E3 ships here (unless you're on easy difficulty). Boss: Harbor Water Demon Requires 7 kills to complete on Hard (甲). Rewards upon clearance: Clearing on Hard (甲): Littorio, 381mm / 50 Triple Gun Mount kai, 90mm Single High Angled Gun 6 Improvement Materials, Medal Clearing on Medium (乙): Littorio, 90mm Single High Angled Gun 4 Improvement Materials, Medal Clearing on Easy (丙): Littorio, Medal
Branching rules Node F is an Active Branching node. Node E is the strongly advised choice, but as there is a Flagship Wo and an elite and flagship Ta-Class battleships, do prepare accordingly. Keep in mind that the other path is basically the same however but with an air battle node.
Tips Possible compositions: BBx2 CVx4, CA DDx4 CLT BBx2 CVx4, CA DDx3 CL CLT BBx2 CVx4, CAV CL DDx2 CLTx2 Keep two Reppuus or similar on each CV to clear all aerial superiority requirements. Boss is an installment type enemy. Equip BB's in first fleet with Sanshiki or other anti-installment type weapons; light cruisers and destroyers can greatly profit from using WG42's. Equip second fleet with anti-installment type weapons as well. Refer to this Example Fleet for composition and equipment suggestion.

E-5

Attack on Apricot Atoll Anchorage アンズ環礁泊地攻撃作戦 Information Ship Locking: You cannot use your E3 or E4 ships here (unless you're on easy difficulty). Boss requires 7 kills to complete on Hard (甲). Boss: Anchorage Water Demon Rewards upon clearance: Clearing on Hard (甲): 381mm / 50 Triple Gun Mount kai, Type2 SeaPlane, Repair Goddess, 8 Improvement Tools, 1 Medal Clearing on Medium (乙): 381mm / 50 Triple Gun Mount kai, Repair Goddess, 5 Improvement Tools, Medal Clearing on Easy (丙): 381mm / 50 Triple Gun Mount, Repair Goddess
Branching rules Node B is a maelstrom. It has a 50 fuel penalty. Node F is an aerial combat node; two rounds of bombing occur, then the battle either ends or enters night-time (which proceeds as usual for surface ships). Node G is a fuel supply node. Node H is an Active Branching node. Node I is a night battle, as compensation for choosing the shorter route. 2 BB, 1 CV, 1 SS, and [Mogami and Mikuma] or [Suzuya and Kumano] will allow for A/B→D→G→H→I→N. There is no battle on B, G, and H.
Tips Possible compositions: (F)BB x4, CV, SS - Equip damecon and boiler or double damecons on SS and pray that you can make it to boss. Double damecons will work as you might expect - damecons can activate on two separate nodes. Equip Sanshiki on your BBs to help damage the boss. Boss is an installation-type. Being sent to the maelstrom node really hurts as likely by the time you make it to the boss, your fleet's fuel will be completely depleted if you hit node H as well. Consider turning back if sent to Maelstrom depending on your resources, especially if you want to conserve. Refer to this Example Fleet for composition and equipment suggestion.

E-6

Relentless Operation! Across the Stevia Sea 『打通作戦!ステビア海を越えて』 Information Combined Fleet Ship-locking does not apply to this map; that is, you can use any ship you own, regardless of whether you used it in any other event maps. Boss: Battleship Water Demon Rewards upon clearance: Clearing on Hard (甲): Akitsushima, Type2 SeaPlane, FuMO25 Radar, Medal, 1 Hard Medal Clearing on Medium (乙): Akitsushima, Type2 SeaPlane, Medal Clearing on Easy (丙): Akitsushima, Medal
Branching rules Node E is an Active Branching node. M to O is a LoS check.
Tips Use the carrier task force option for the combined fleet mechanic. Example composition: (F)BBx3 CVLx2 CAV, CLTx2 CL CA DDx2 Consider using a shelling support expedition to assist with the boss kill.

【最近「艦これ」に着任された提督の皆さんへ】 春イベがもうすぐスタート致します。開催期間は約20日間ありますので、いきなりイベント海域に飛び込まず、通常海域での艦隊戦力の充実、練度の向上も併行して行って頂けると攻略の鍵がきっと見えてきます。どうぞよろしくお願い致します！ #艦これ
The Spring Event is almost here. The event period will be about 20 days, so keys to clearing the maps will include (a) don't jump right into event maps, (b) rounding out the fleet's operational capability in regular maps, and (c) increasing the ship's experience. Please keep that in mind!
