Christmas 2013 Event

This event is a collaboration between "Kantai Collection" and "Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova". It has smaller scale compared to previous events, and the event takes place from December 24th, 2013 to January 8, 2014.

With the exception of I-401 (original Kancolle's I-401 from E-3, not Iona/Arpeggio's I-401), the Fog Ships are event-only ships, which will be removed when the event ends.

Additional info

Special "Arpeggio" permanent furniture will be available for purchasing for the duration of the event. All Arpeggio ships are temporary and will only last for the duration of the event. 

Level recommendation to conquer E-1, E-2, and E-3:

E-1 is really easy you can clear it with level ~20

E-2 although star is similar to 2-4, it is way harder than it seem. Prefer your fleet can hold 3 gravitation cannon shot. Level 50+

E-3 same as above, prefer your fleet can chunk as much damage as you can. Kongou is tanky as hell so 90% of the time you have to kill her in night battle.

Or you can clear E-1 E-2 and E-3 with a single submarine Iona or 4 submarines + Iona at any level. You don't need to use other ships at all.

How to Unlock Large Ship Construction

1. Complete Modernization Quest: You will be required to successfully modernize a ship 4 times.

1. Complete Crafting Quest: You will be required to scrap 4 pieces of equipment. Do it one by one as the game will consider discarding multiplies at once, as one time

1. Enjoy large ship building! Keep in mind that LSC require 4-digit resources (1500-7000 per resource per craft), while only few ships are worth trying using LSC.

PS: To unlock the first quest you need 3rd fleet unlocked
