Sandbox Rules

This sandbox is to be used to construct an event guide for the above mentioned event map. These guides are to all of the following requirements:

  • List of branching unlocking requirements (If there are multiple requirements, compositions for each path along with the below requirements will be needed to discuss the unlocking requirements in question)
  • A list of working compositions that work: (These must have possible alternatives for players who may or may not have all ships needed for a specific path)
  • The Path said composition will take (To explain what path the composition will take)
  • A summary or description of what kind of obstacles a composition will face.
  • A description of the boss node, what it consist and a descriptive guide on what the player should consider for a course of action to successfully win the battle.
  • (Optional) Tips to farm to take path to collect certain ships (This will also require a composition, path, and possible description.

Editors are to construct their own version of their guide and complete them in a timely fashion.

No other editors are to allowed to edit over other editor's work without the full consent of the editor and his approval to do so.

Several version will be constructed through this page and will be reviewed and approved by the staff/ collaboration committee before being moved for the Summer 2020 Event which it'll be reviewed and updated once more before it can be released.

Overall there will be 3 versions of the guide that will be constructed which will include:

  • Preliminary Guide
  • Polished Guide
  • Finalized Guide

With each approval of each version of the guide, the said guide will be updated to the main page, and construction of the next version will begin.

All guides outside of the approved version will be removed and work will begin from the approved version to make it better for the next version until the finalized version is made.

Projected deadline for Initial guide: September 10, 12:01 JST (May get extended by 1 day if massive delays occur)


Jiga's 1st take (feel free to edit it ^^)

Overview

Gibraltar Front Seas / Mediterranean / Malta Island Front Seas

Reinforcement Transport! Operation Pedestal

  • This map uses 4 tags :
    •  [Green Tag]H Force, used on Phase 2, (Previously on E-2)
    •  [Grey Tag]Z Force, used on Phase 1 & 4, NEW
    •  [Bright Yellow Tag]X Force, used on Phase 3, NEW
    •  [Dark Blue Tag]10th Submarine Fleet, used on Phase 2.5, NEW


  • There are 2 new event quests linked to this map.
  • All 3 LBAS are available on this map.
  • Similar to E-2, the location of the LBAS here will be moved from Gibraltar to Malta for the final phase.
    • This means that the Eastern/Right side of the map will have lower range requirements while the Western/Left side will have drastically higher range requirements. Keep in mind this may make it much harder to farm drops or clear certain quests.

Tag & Lock Warnings!

The locking system on this map is a bit more complex than the previous maps; but here is what you must pay attention to:

  • Locking restrictions only apply on Hard mode
    • Ships will be tagged regardless of the difficulty
    •  [Green Tag]H Force will affect the Starting Point, regardless of difficulty
  • Starting Point 1 applies the  [Grey Tag]Z Force
    • Any fleet that meets all of the following requirements will start at Starting Point 1:
      • Single Fleet or Strike Force Fleet
      • Fleet contains no tags OR contains ≥1 Z Force (Grey) tag
      • If Phase 3 or 4: Fleet must not be 6 SS(V) and not contain ≥3 SS(V) ≥1 AS (?)
  • Starting Point 2 applies the  [Green Tag]H Force
    • Any fleet that meets all of the following requirements will start at Starting Point 2:
      • Combined Fleet
      • Phase 2: Fleet contains no tags OR contains ≥1 H Force (Green) tag
      • Phase 3 & 4: Fleet contains ≥1 H Force (Green) tag
      • Any fleet that contains even a single H Force tag will force Starting Point 2, regardless of the difficulty.
  • Starting Point 3 can apply any of the following tags:
    •  [Dark Blue Tag]10th Submarine Fleet
      • Starting Point 3 is unlocked, fleet has no tags or at least one 10th Submarine Fleet (Dark Blue) tag, and is 6 SS(V) or ≥1 AS ≥3 SS(V)
    •  [Bright Yellow Tag]X Force
      • Phase 3: Starting Point 3 is unlocked & is a combined fleet that does NOT contain any H Force (Green) tag
      • Phase 4: Any TCF that does NOT contain any H Force (Green) tag
    •  [Grey Tag]Z Force
      • Phase 4: Any STF/CTF fleet with no tags or at least 1 Z Force (Grey) tag


Special note for submarines:

  • Before Starting Point 3 is unlocked:
    • SS(V) in Single/Strike Force fleets start at Starting Point 1 and are tagged with  [Grey Tag]Z Force
    • Untagged or  [Grey Tagged]Z Force SS(V) can sortie alone to 1
  • After Starting Point 3 is unlocked:
    • (?) SS(V) with the  [Grey Tag]Z Force are no longer able to sortie alone to 1, but can be sortied if they are accompanied by any additional Z Force (Grey) tagged ship
    • (?) Untagged or  [Dark Blue Tagged]10th Submarine Fleet SS(V) can sortie alone to 3
    • (?) Any fleet containing SS(V) with the  [Dark Blue Tag]10th Submarine Fleet can only sortie if they contain 6 SS(V) OR at least 3 SS(V) and 1 AS
