For additional information regarding event-related subjects and content, please refer to Mechanics.

Historical Background

As of the latest information from C2 Kikan, Gloire is one of the new kanmusu who will make her debut in the game. Also they mentioned that the MO will cover the Atlantic and North Africa. With that in mind, it is important to know who Gloire is and her career.

Gloire is a French La Galissonnière-class cruiser. She had an active time in the Atlantic in the opening years of the war. She made a trip to Canada and escorted a convoy back to mainland Europe. She was stationed in Brest and was part of the famous Force de Raid. Force L of Force de Raide comprised of Dunkerque, Béarn, Montcalm, Georges Leygues, L'Audacieux, Le Fantasque, Le Malin, Le Terrible, Le Triomphant, L'Indomptable, Mogador, Volta, and Gloire. Gloired took part in operations that covered convoy KJ4 from Kingston, Jamaica to the British Isles to prevent attacks by the pocket battleship Deutschland. They then moved from Brest to Mers El Kebir. With the fall of France she came under Vichy French control. She wasn't present during the Attack on Mers El Kebir nor the Battle of Dakar and managed to survive into the rejoining of the Free French after Operation Torch. She had her refit in New York in 1943 and she then operated from Dakar along other French and Italian cruisers. She covered the areas around the Central and Southern areas of the Atlantic. She was then moved to the Mediterranean and supported the landings at Anzio. She then transferred to Southern France for Operation Dragoon in August 1944. She will continue to support Allied operations in the South of France until the end of the war.

The main operations involving Gloire are the of the following:

  • Force De Raid: Force L Patrols in the Atlantic
  • Central and Southern Atlantic Patrols
  • Battle of Anzio and shelling Bay of Gaeta
  • Operation Dragoon

Force De Raid: Force L Patrols in the Atlantic

Is part of Gloire's early career as part of Force de Raid. They were initially fielded when the German Pocket Battleship Admiral Graf Spee started operations against Allied Merchant shipping in the Southern Atlantic. She also took part in convoy escort duties to protect said convoy from the German Pocket Battleship Deutschland. In between these she was part of several patrol operations and transport operations spanning from Western France, the Atlantic, North Africa, United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and back.

Central and Southern Atlantic Patrols

After her being reinstated in the Free French Navy she took part in operations to seek and destroy Axis Blockade runners in the Central and Southern regions of the Atlantic Ocean. She made patrols from Dakar all to the seas way of Southeastern section of South America and lower Southwestern Africa. These areas were part of the Middle and South Atlantic convoy routes and was part of the larger Battle for the Atlantic.

Battle of Anzio and shelling Bay of Gaeta

She took part in the invasion of Anzio during Operation Shingle. She is notable for her role in providing shelling support to the Allied Landings and she fired 604 rounds at Bay of Gaeta. This might not be covered in the event as Anzio is not part of the Atlantic nor African Campaigns.

Operation Dragoon

Copied from Wikipedia: Operation Dragoon

Operation Dragoon was the code name for the landing operation of the Allied invasion of Provence (Southern France) on the 15th of August 1944. Although initially designed to be executed in conjunction with Operation Overlord, the Allied landing in Normandy, a lack of available resources led to a cancellation of the second landing. By July 1944 the landing was reconsidered, as the clogged-up ports in Normandy did not have the capacity to adequately supply the Allied forces. Concurrently, the High Command of the French Liberation Army pushed for a revival of the operation that would include large numbers of French troops. As a result, the operation was finally approved in July to be executed in August.

Involved Forces

The operation was divided into four main forces, each with a naval component, and involving ships from the US Navy, Royal Navy, and the FNFL.

Friendly Fleets

Friendly Fleets (FF) come with a function that allows players to choose if they want to use a FF to aid them in battle or not. It is possible to choose between using "normal only" or "normal and powerful" FF. Powerful FF have an additional cost of 6 Instant Constructions   for each time they are deployed in a battle (the blowtorches won't be consumed unless a powerful FF appears).

  • Friendly Fleets are available on:

Mechanics

Participation requirements

To take part in any event, a player MUST HAVE at least:

  • A 75% sortie win ratio.
  • 5 empty ship slots.
  • 20 empty equipment slots.

Special Mechanics

In addition to regular Sortie mechanics, events often involve some specific or rarer mechanics :

  • It is possible to choose between Hard ("operation A", 甲), Medium ("operation B", 乙), Easy ("operation C", 丙), Casual ("operation D", 丁).
    • Difficulties and drops available depend on the HQ Level:
      • HQ 1+ for Casual and Easy, limited "rare drops" available,
      • HQ 35+ for Medium, some "rare drops" available,
      • HQ 80+ for Hard, all "rare drops" available.
  • Changing difficulty is possible but limited:
    • When switching from any "lower" difficulty to any "higher" difficulty, the map will fully be reset.
    • When switching from any "higher" difficulty to any "lower" difficulty, the map will stay in the very same state it was previously, with only +25% of TP/HP being reset on the current phase's TP/HP bar.
      • Gimmicks might also be reset when applicable, notably the debuffs.
  • Beginning with the second map, difficulty progression rules apply.
    • In order to play a map on Hard difficulty, the prior map must have been completed on either Normal or Hard.
    • e.g. to do E-2 on hard, E-1 must be completed on normal or hard.
  • To simulate simultaneity of battles in different locations, Fleet Tags conditions & deployment restrictions are employed.
    • Ships not already tagged will be tagged with the associated tag of the map phase when deployed. This tag will be applied regardless of the difficulty and can't be removed by any measure before the end of the event.
    • One map can use multiple tags, usually separated by phases or fleets.
    • Several maps can share one or more tags.
    • On Normal or Hard difficulty, ships must have either the same tag as the map/phase they are being deployed to, or have no tag at all.
      • This requirement is sometimes waived on certain maps, mostly on the last map of the event where tags only matter on Hard.
      • Once the event is cleared (last map of the EO), all tag restrictions stop getting enforced on every map (tag routing will still apply).

  • The Combined Fleet (CF), a fleet assembling both the 1st and 2nd fleets, may come back.
    • The CF is only available for the two 1st fleets, where the 2nd fleet can be merged with the 1st one in the "Fleet menu".
    • The CF cannot be used in anything outside of event sorties.
    • 3 different types of CF are available, depending on the map requirements and the current fleet setup.
    • CF with a flagship that carries the  Fleet Command Facility , will be able to make use of the Evacuation mechanic.
      • The evacuation requires an escort destroyer.
      • Only one ship can be evacuated per battle.
The Flagship of the Escorting fleet cannot sink!
  • The Striking Force Fleet (SF), a fleet with seven ships, may come back.
    • The SF is only available for the 3rd fleet, where an extra 7th ship can be added in the Fleet menu.
    • The SF cannot be used in anything outside of event sorties.
    • A SF with a flagship that carries the  Striking Force Fleet Command Facility , will be able to make use of the Evacuation mechanic.
      • Only one ship can be evacuated per battle.
  • The Vanguard Formation  can be used.
    • This formation will organize the fleet such that the 2 to 3 last ships protect the 2 to 4 first ships of the Fleet.
    • This formation is available for single and Strike Force fleets made of 4 to 7 ships.
      • The formation makes ships way more evasive in combat, especially DD, and more accurate against DD, especially PT Imps.
      • This formation is available only during the duration of the event, on the event's maps as well as on the regular maps.

  • NPC Friendly Fleets (FF) may be introduced to the event.
    • FFs act as another unit that appears in particular battles to help aid the fleet when attacking the enemy.
    • It is possible to choose between using "normal only" or "normal and powerful" FF in the main menu.
      • Powerful FFs have an additional cost of 6 Instant Constructions   for each time they are deployed in a battle.
        • The blowtorches won't be consumed unless a powerful FF appears.
      • If activated, one FF is randomly selected from a preset list of fleets to help the fleet.
      • Which ships are in the fleet will influence which FF can help, excluding the FFs containing ships also in the main fleet.
      • The FF will appear at the start of either day or night battle, depending on the node.
    • FFs are usually available sometime after the start of the event, to help Admirals facing difficulties clearing the maps.

Most maps have various bonuses, coming in many shapes. Since most of those bonuses follow the historical formations/tactics used in the relevant operations, they are referred to as "Historical Bonuses". Such bonuses are also found on 7-4 and 7-5.

  • The bonuses can be given to:
    • Ships, including all remodels,
    • Ship types, with all ships of a given type sharing a bonus,
      • In those cases, types do not overlap (e.g. a CLT does not count as a CL),
    • Ships Nationalities, with foreigners (non-Japanese) sharing a bonus,
    • Equipment, with some types or specific ones giving a bonus,
      • It is only applied to the ship they are equipped on,
      • For planes, those bonuses won't work if the plane count is 0, but for the Foreign Plane Bonuses.
  • Then, bonuses can be applied:
    • Map-wide, working on all nodes
    • On some Nodes only, with usually boss or gimmick nodes having some bonuses,
      • Those node bonuses are often split following the map's phases.
    • Against some abyssals specifically,
      • Usually bosses and their escorts,
Bonuses can stack or not between each other depending on the case.
  • Bonuses are either damage, accuracy, and/or evasion,
  • Damage and evasion bonuses are "post-cap",
  • Some gimmicks like the map's phase can further affect the bonuses (usually the Debuff).

  • Completion Gimmicks might be required to further progress the map, demanding certain conditions to be accomplished on a given map to unlock several things :
    • Boss Debuffs, where once the "Last Dance" of the final boss of a given map is reached, its debuffed form can be unlocked.
    • Map phases, where some map areas need to be unlocked, like on 7-2, 7-3, and 7-5.
      • Map areas can either be a path to the next boss, an intermediate path asking for new gimmicks, or a shortcut.
    • LBAS Relocation.
    • Choosing a higher difficulty on an event map will reset it to its initial state.
    • These conditions range from reaching certain nodes, defeating specific nodes, attaining air superiority on certain nodes, and defending against Air Raids. As soon as all the given conditions are met, the map advances to the next phase. Lower difficulties may require fewer conditions to be met to complete the phase. The order in which the gimmicks are completed does not matter.
    • Completing a gimmick will play a "bell" sound once back in the main port (Play Bell Completion Sound Effect).
    • Nodes required to be visited/defeated in gimmicks are highlighted.
  • Special Nodes:
    • Emergency Anchorage Repairs:
    • Enemy Ambush Nodes, "off-route ambush nodes",
       
      Ambush
      • They serve as a "radar check", with fleets lacking enough Surface Radars being off-routed there,
      • The fleet will not be able to fight against the enemy fleet.
    • Airstrike Supported Battle Nodes, ("ASS nodes") "off-route combat nodes",
       
      ASS
      • The enemy fleet will consist of "normal surface enemies" (4-5 SS so far), followed by "air support enemies" (1-2 CVL so far), bringing air support, and that cannot be attacked,
      • By meeting certain conditions, these nodes can be evaded.
    • "Installation Nodes", being most nodes having one or more Installation in it, and were   Barrage Balloons can be deployed.
    • "Atoll Nodes", being some nodes located on atolls, and were   Ka-Tsu tanks 
              spacial attack can be triggered.
  • Superfortress Air-Raid Sequence, a QTE where the LBAS is attacked by bombers, and where the player must click on a button at the right moment to obtain better interception, using "Land-based high-altitude interceptors".

Some error messages you may encounter before a sortie.

  • Do note that:
    • Most errors are "general" and can be seen in many situations,
    • Some errors are event only, being liked to event maps/locks/mechanics.
