May 2nd, 2017 The Spring 2017 Event Update

1. Spring related quests will come to an end.
2. The following maps for the Spring 2017 Event have been released:
   • E-1: Sortie! Ōminato Guard District
   • E-2: Fleet, Assemble! To the Hitokappu Anchorage
   • E-3: Fleet, Head out! Reinforce the Northern Defence Line!
3. From E-2 onwards, it is possible to acquire the Destroyer Escort / Coastal Defence Ship (DE) Kunashiri as a drop. Also, from E-3 onwards (which requires use of a Combined Fleet), it is possible to acquire the DE Shumushu and the Supply Vessel (AO) Kamoi. The latter can be remodelled into a Seaplane Tender (AV), and does not require use of a Blueprint in order to do so.
4. Upon clearing E-3, Admirals will be rewarded with the Converted Merchant Aircraft Carrier Kasuga Maru. She starts off as a very weak aircraft carrier, but can eventually be remodelled into a more powerful carrier with her own distinctive strengths.
   • Her final remodel requires a Prototype Catapult, which can be obtained from the latter half of this event.
