The Spring 2014 event started on April 23th and will last until May 6th (TBC).

Official Twitter

Information from the official Twitter:

  1. Event Name "Recon planes, launching!"
    • High LOS will be the key to increase the chances of reaching the boss nodes.
    • To achieve a high value, use of seaplanes, recon aircraft and ships with high LOS is strongly recommended
  2. Event lasts 2 weeks from April 23rd.
    • Boss health in this event does not regenerate so stay calm and don't rush. Take it easy.
  3. Requires at least 75% sortie win ratio to participate.
    • At least 5 free ship slots for new girls to join your fleet before sortie.
    • At least 20 free equipment slots before sortie.
  4. 4 new ships added: DD Amatsukaze, DD Tanikaze, repair ship Akashi, and CL Sakawa.
    • Amatsukaze is an E-3 Reward (Port Darwin Area).
    • Tanikaze can be obtained from drops (E2, E3, E4 boss nodes are confirmed to drop her).
    • Akashi is an E-2 Reward (Battle of Sunda Strait), she can repair ships mid sortie (down to moderate damage). A new item, Ship Repair Facility, allows her to repair 2 ships at the same time. The times where she is allowed to repair are limited, however, she will get more functionality in the future.
    • Sakawa is an E-5 reward.
  5. Tone, Chikuma and Bismarck received a second remodel, with Tone-class being reclassified as CAVs. This can be unlocked by using a special Blueprint item, obtainable by trading Extra Operation and Event maps badges.
  6. New BGM added.
  7. New Recon Plane functionality:
    • Increased effectiveness in the aerial combat phase from successful scouting with carrier-based scouts and seaplane scouts
      • Effect depends on whether air superiority or air supremacy is obtained
    • Special bonus in shelling phase from seaplane scouts
    • Achieving Air Superiority / Air Supremacy allows ships with Recon Planes to do Double Attacks and Cut-Ins during Day Battle
  8. Reward for clearing event maps:

E-4 - Central Pacific Sea - Sweep Against Subs in the Frontline

E-4 Map

Branching rules

  • From C to D : Fleet with 5 DD or 4DD + 1CL . The sixth ship can be any battleship or carrier. Fleet with less than 4 DD or have two BB/CV will always send to E
  • E to D or G is random.
  • An alternative is using 2DD, 2CL, 1 BB, 1 CV. This is a high risk high reward setup and only works if you have high leveled DDs or CLs ( Recommended Verniy, the Kai 2s , Yukikaze or Shimakaze followed with Izusu and Yuubari). This setup is not a 100% chance to get to the Boss node but the chances are still high, and you may find yourself retreating often. However, If you manage to survive to the Boss node, it can be easily defeated and get a S score. 
  • You can also use 1CV with 5DD (or 4DD 1CL) to ensure A C D H route and won't lose air superiority to the enemy in the pre boss node, you will take much less crit in this way. The downside is you may fail to kill the boss if your ASW gears are bad, no BB means no second attack for your ships. If you want a battleship , fill your BBV with your best seaplanes to enable ASW.

Tips

  • Use diamond formation for pre-boss node, line-abreast for the rest.
  • Pre-boss node is very tough if you have no carrier and let the enemy get air superiority, your DD will get crit to red very frequently.
  • Equip your ships with AA guns (10cm HA), it helps with lowering the damage done by Flagship Wo kai during Air Strike phrase.

  • Rewards Sakawa and three Medals upon clear.

Branching rules

  • B → C : Fleet with fast ship only.
  • B → D : Fleet with slow ship(s).
  • From F or G to J (boss node) : With a certain LOS (400+?), otherwise, send you to dead end (H or I)

Tips

  • 4BB and 2CV. Fill your Carriers with Reppu (or better), put your best fighter in Kaga's largest slot, with this you can win air superiority in the boss node.
  • Equipment for your battleships : Two 46cm, recon plane, Type 3 Shell (you will need type 3 to deal with the boss)
  • Double line formation is recommended for battleship duel, you will take less crit on your way to boss node. Choose line ahead in boss node to deliver highest firepower.
