* To go start->B (and avoid the first maelstrom) you cannot have more than 1 CLT and your first fleet must contain either a CL, DD, or Akitsumaru and have 2 BB + 2 CA (other combinations may work, still needs testing)

* To go start->B (and avoid the first maelstrom) you cannot have more than 1 CLT and your first fleet must contain either a CL, DD, or Akitsumaru and have 2 BB + 2 CA (other combinations may work, still needs testing)

* Akitsumaru can guarantee F->H, plus she can carry Reppuus so Akitsumaru + a CV can get you air superiority at all nodes.  Combined with the previous rule this makes easy B->F->H->I routing.

* Akitsumaru can guarantee F->H, plus she can carry Reppuus so Akitsumaru + a CV can get you air superiority at all nodes.  Combined with the previous rule this makes easy B->F->H->I routing.

* Going C-E-G-I is possible with a fleet of Akitsumaru, 2 Slow BB, 2 CAV, 1 CL + 3 DD, 1 CL, 1 BB, 1 CLT

* Going C-E-G-I is possible with a fleet of Akitsumaru, 2 Slow BB, 2 CAV, 1 CL + 3 DD, 1 CL, 1 BB, 1 CLT. E is a maelstrom so this means you only fight 2 battles before the boss.
