Phase 1: Scouting the area (Unlocking the Boss Route) This is pretty straightforward, as it requires you to A-Rank the Nodes A, D, K and L. You have one LBAS at your disposal, which you can send to help you complete these nodes. The maximum Range required is 5
Completing these tasks will unlock Node N containing the Boss Phase 2: Fighting Summer French Battleship Princess To clear the map, you are required to deplete the HP Bar by damaging the Summer French Battleship Princess and sink her on Last Dance. As she has up to 254 Armour on Last Dance, bringing TCI or Ships with historical Bonus is highly recommended. As the Preboss nodes are fairly weak, you can send a 5 Range LBAS to the Boss. You are required to have 58 Fighterpower to meet Air Denial on all compositions. AS on the boss itself ranges from 108-257, so plan the Aircraft of the LBAS and your Fleet accordingly There are two routes:
