Special Mechanics
- Combined fleet mechanics - Surface Fleet combined fleet added and required for E-1 and E-3. E-4 may use the original MI style Carrier-Escort combined fleet.
- Surface Fleet combined fleet has different ship requirements. First Fleet now only allows maximum of 1 CV(B) or 2 CVLs, 4 BBs and 1 Wild card that is not BB, CV or CVL. Second Fleet requires 1 CL 2 DD.
- Change in combat nodes - Surface Fleet Combined Fleet will now have to go through shelling phrase rather that only having aerial phrase. However, First Fleet will begin shelling first before Second Fleet does.
- Ships that are used in E1 and E2 cannot be used in E-3 (as well as ships used in E3 cannot be used in E1 and E2). However, you can use all your ships (even those used in E1, E2 and E3) in E4. No one is locked out of E4.

Branching rules
- Provisional E-1 set up results. (Need further testing and editing.)
- 2BBV, 2CA, 2CAV will lead to either ACDF or BDEF
- 2BBV, 2CA, 2CVL will lead to either ACDF or BDEF. Formation 2 for all nodes except the boss node for safety of a high-level fleet. AP shells are recommended. Formation 4 for the boss node.
- 1BBV 1CAV 2CA 1DD 1CVL + 1CL 5DD will lead to A-C-E-F.
- 1BBV 2CA 2DD 1CVL will sometimes lead you to B-D-F
- 1fBB 3CAV 2DD (BDEF) 2BB 2CAV 1CAV 1CV
- 1CA 2fBB 1CA 2CAV (ACDEF)
- 2BB 2CA 1CV 1CLT (BDEF)
- 1BB 3CA 2CVL (BDEF)
- 1BBV 2CA 3DD (BDF/ACGF)
- 1BB 1fBB 2CA 1CAV 1CV (ABDEF)
- 2fBB 1BBV 1CA 2CAV (ACEF) 2CA 4DD
- 2fBB 1BBV 1CA 1CAV 1CV (ACDEF) 1CL 1 CLT 2DD 2SS
- 1CL 1BB 1CA 2CAV 1CV(ACDEF) 1CA 1CAV 4DD
- Most likely to South route on E-1 (will skipping 4th battle on E node):
- For first fleet: 1xBBV, 2xCAV, 1xCA, 2xDD. Second fleet: 1xCL, 5xDD [not always southern route, also northern route A-E-F]
- 1x FBB, 2x CA, 1x CAV, 2x DD + 1x CL, 5x DD

Rewards

|
|
Branching rules
- Going to A or C is random.
- C to D if you have more than one CL.
|
|
Tips
- A node is a sub node with no indicator.
- G node is a night battle.
- Lv100+ admirals will meet Tsu elite in the final boss battle. [99 also]
- A node has 3 or 4 submarines with Ka elite being the flagship. (Admiral lv 100 (99))
- G node has 2 patterns with 5 or 6 enemy ships, respectively. (Admiral lv 100 (99))
- 41 equipment LoS = C to G, with a fleet of 1CL and 5DD, admiral level 100 (99?). The actual threshold may be no higher than 34 equipment LoS.
- Placement of ships may affect routing. Putting CL on 2nd slot leads to C-G-I routing (1CL 5 DD).
- If you have difficulty with boss, you can run a light support expedition (2 DD 1 CA 1 CL 2 CVL) to give your fleet an edge.

Tips
- Node A and E are maelstroms that deduct Fuel.
- You may deploy a maximum of 2 CVLs.
- You may deploy a maximum of 5 BBs.
- 1fBB, 1BB, 2CA, 1CL, 1CV + 1CL, 4DD, 1CLT, takes B-F-H-I route (not always some times goes from F-E)
- 3FBB, Akitsumaru, 1CA, 1CV + 1CLT, 1CL, 2DD, 2CA takes B-F-H-I route
- Having even one BB will lead you through A-B-F-E-G-H-I about half the time, meaning five battles.
- Having a fleet of small/medium-sized ships will take you through A-B-F-H-I.
- 2 CA+2 CAV+2 CVL and 1 CL+2 DD+3 CLT will always go A-B-F-H-I and works very well, make sure to set Kitakami as your second fleet's flagship so she has a higher chance to trigger a cut-in attack.
- You may deploy CLTs on your second fleet, they make the map much, much easier!
- 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.

E-4: 敵機動部隊迎撃戦
|
Information

- Boss: (Node J) Aircraft Carrier Water Demon

Branching rules
- C->D LoS check.C->E LoS check too.
- C to D/E is random.
- G to I if you have more than two CVs.
- G to H if you have more than two BBs.
|
|
Tips
- C node is a sub node with no indicator.
- D is a very easy combat node.
- G and I have Aircraft Carrier Princess, while H is Battleship Princess.
- 2BB + 2CV + 2CAV and second fleet: 3DD+2CL(T) + 1CLT will go B-D-G-J (node B is battle avoided and node D has only CLs and DDs) most of the time. This is the shortest and safest route for this map.
- 2 BB+2 CV+2 CAVs and 1 CL+1 BB+2 DD+2 CLT will always go C-D/E-G-J and works very well, make sure to set Kitakami as your second fleet's flagship so she has a higher chance to trigger a cut-in attack.
- 1CVL + 2BB + 1CA + 2CV and second fleet: 2DD + 1CL + 1BB + 2CLT will always go C-D/E-G-J with LoS check from D->G. Fleet Command Facility is recommended. Try to maximize fighter power for better performance in the shelling salvo.
- Boss support Expedition is recommended.
- The enemy fleet after 5 complete kills has lower fighter power (Aircraft Carrier Water Demon and 2 Armored Carrier Princesses). Saiun is recommended to ensure a better engaging form.
