* {{LineAhead}} '''Line ahead''' - Offensive formation that greatly increases all damage and decreases armor. Weak against aircraft, especially weak to submarines.
'''{{Template:LineAhead}}'''

* {{DoubleLine}} '''Double line''' - Balanced formation that slightly increases armor, evasion and all damage. Weak against submarines.

When your fleet uses heavy ships and carriers it is recommended you choose a damage-boosting formation, while if your fleet uses light ships with torpedos and does most of its damage during the night you should choose a defensive formation. If you're unsure, double line is almost always a good choice.
