===Stage Guide===

===Stage Guide===

After playing this stage once, you may notice that standard aircraft carriers are pretty painful. Your countermeasures are to pick up a few heavy cruisers in this stage or 1-3 and train them up, try to craft battleships for doing the same; pushing through with firepower and armor, or building your own aircraft carrier to shoot down enemy aircraft. Note that this last suggestion will also help in completing the quests for Akagi: [[Quests#A11|A11]], have a CV(L) and 3 destroyers in your second fleet; [[Quests#B10|B10]], sink an enemy CV.

This is the first map in which enemy possess carriers (and every route has at least one node with carriers); if you do not bring your own carriers, then your ships must deal with aerial bombing prior to being able to counter-attack during shelling phase(s). You have a few ways to deal with enemy carriers:

*# Ignore the enemy carriers' bombing, which is possible with ships of higher armor and HP (at least CLs, preferably CAs or higher);

*# Bring a submarine-only fleet (likely from construction as there are no submarine drops between 1-1 and 1-4) as only enemy CL and DDs can attack submarines; or

*# Bring your own carriers, which can be done by either remodeling [[Chitose]] and [[Chiyoda]] at Level 15 or by constructing one.

The third method will also help in completing the quest chain which rewards [[Akagi]]: [[Quests#A11|A11]] (have a CV(L) and 3 destroyers in your second fleet) and [[Quests#B10|B10]] (sink an enemy carrier).
