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:

  • An overview of the map, including ship/equipment bonuses, Ship Locks, and special mechanics,
  • 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 Paths said compositions will take (to explain each path the composition will/can take),
    • A summary or description of what kind of obstacles a composition will face.
  • A description of the boss node: what it consists of, and a descriptive guide on what the player should consider for a course of action to successfully win the battle,
  • Optional: Tips/guides to farm certain ships and/or resources (this can also require compositions, paths, and possible descriptions).

Editors are to construct their own version of the guide/part of the guide, and complete it in a timely fashion.

No editor is allowed to edit over other's work without their consent/approval.

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 2024 Event, being reviewed and updated once more before it can be released.

Overall there should be 3 versions of the guide that have to be constructed, including Preliminary > Polished > Finalized Guides

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.

Map Overview

E4 is a striking force, and combined fleet four-phase map, consisting of two transport and two boss phases.

  • 3 LBAS are available to sortie on this map.
    • After Phase 2, the LBAS is relocated closer to the final boss.
  • This map uses 2 locks:
    • Summer 2024 Event Tag 5.png Operation Kon Fleet, Starting point 1 (striking),
    • Summer 2024 Event Tag 6.png Operation Kon Reinforcement, Starting point 2 (combined).

Phase 1 - Eliminate the Enemy at Sorong (Boss)

  • Striking Force: 1 FBB, 1 CV, 0-1 CA(V)/CLT, 1 CL, 3-4 DD, Fast Summer 2024 Event Tag 5.png
  • Route: 1 A A2 C L

  • Striking Force: 2 FBB, 1 CVL, 1 CA(V)/CLT, 1 CL, 2 DD, Fast Summer 2024 Event Tag 5.png
  • Route: 1 A A2 C L

  • LoS check: Casual/Easy/Med/Hard = Cn3 34/45/60/50
  • LBAS range: 4
  • Bringing 1 or 2 OASW is recommended to clear the SS on LD.
  • The use of several Night Cut-ins is required to kill the boss.
  • Bringing AACI may help in the case the LBAS does not reliably clear the CVL.
  • Boss Support is recommended to help finish the boss off, especially on LD.

Phase 2 - Supply Transport to Sorong (TP)

Phase 2 is a "Transport Operation":

  • Striking Force: 1 CL, 4-6 DD, 0-1 AV Summer 2024 Event Tag 5.png
  • Route: 1 A A2 C M O P Q S

  • Striking Force: 1 CVL, 1 CA(V)/AV, 1 CL, 4 DD Summer 2024 Event Tag 5.png
  • Route: 1 A A2 C M O P Q S

Notes
  • It is recommended to use anti-PT setups on DDs only, such setups compromising overall combat effectiveness.
  • Having a Reinforcement Expansion is important because it can save a ship slot by containing a machine gun or skilled lookouts.
