Gameplay Notes

Fast Battleships (FBB) are BB with higher speed. They:

  • Usually have more permissive Routings,
  • Can be placed in the Escort of a Combined Fleet regardless of their speed.

Special Mechanics

French Touch

On Kai/Deux, Richelieu and Jean Bart gain a special attack called "Richelieu! Overwhelm them!" (Richelieuよ!圧倒しなさいっ!, "French Touch"):

"Touch Helpers"
Richelieu Flagship: Jean Bart Flagship:
   Kai/Deux
  • A Richelieu-class Kai/Deux must be flagship.
    • Secretary for combined fleets.
    • She must not be more than lightly damaged (小破).
  • The other "Touch Helper" must be in the 2nd position.
    • She must not be heavily damaged (大破).
  • There must be 6 or more surface ships in the fleet.
    • There must be no submarine in 6-ship fleets. In 7-ship fleets, only 1 submarine is allowed.
    • There must be no surface ship in the fleet sunk or evacuated via   FCF 
       
      during a sortie, making the remaining total < 6. Ships in the escort fleet are not counted.
  • Bug: The attack cannot trigger in CTF versus a single fleet.

If triggered:

  • The flagship will do a 1st & 2nd attack,
  • The 2nd battleship will do a 3rd attack,
  • Each attack targets a ship at random,
  • If all enemies sunk, then touch stops early.

  • The modifiers are post-cap on day battle, and pre-cap on night battle.
  • The equipment bonuses do not stack further than 1 radar and/or 1 AP shell per ship.
    • Only ships equipped with those equipment will get a bonus for their attack(s).

  • Both ships involved consume additional ammunition when triggered [2]:
Fleet type Triggering type Additional ammo consumption
Single Day battle (no night battle) 10 %
Day battle (with night battle) 15 %
Night battle (after day battle) 15 %
Night battle Node 5 %
Combined Day battle (no night battle) ?
Day battle (with night battle) ?
Night battle (after day battle) ?
  • Costs are rounded down.

The touch:

  • Can be triggered even if artillery spotting fails to activate.
  • Can only be activated once per sortie.
  • Has a chance to trigger every time the flagship takes a turn at shelling.
    • In single fleet, if it fails to trigger in day battle, there is a chance to trigger it in the follow-up night battle.
  • The rate is probably:
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Trigger}_\text{Rate}\text{%} = \Biggl\lfloor \text{V} \times \sum_\text{Ships} \sqrt{\text{Lv}} + \text{W} \times \sum_\text{Ships} \sqrt{\text{Luck}} + \text{X} + \text{Y} \Biggr\rfloor }[/math]
With
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Lv} }[/math] the Level of the participating ships,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Luck} }[/math] the   Luck of the participating ships,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{V & W} }[/math] some yet unknown bonus factors,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{X} }[/math] some yet unknown bonus variables,
  • [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Y} }[/math] some yet unknown base rate.
