I'm he 6th ship in the Yuugumo-class destroyers, Takanami.

I was born in Uraga. I was assigned to the 31st Destroyer Division and I think I played my part well. As the flagship of the advance force, I discovered the enemy at that fateful battle at Tassafaronga... and that may have brought victory to the fleet... Yup![2]

夕雲型駆逐艦6番艦、高波です。

浦賀生まれです。第三十一駆逐隊に編入され、活躍したかもです。 運命のルンガ沖夜戦でも警戒隊の旗艦として敵を発見…、艦隊の勝利に貢献したかも…です。はい!

  1. Her verbal tic 'kamodesu' (かもです) implies a wishy washy statement. Kind of like -poi for Yuudachi.
  2. The Battle of Tassafaronga is known as the Battle of Lunga Point in Japanese sources. In the battle, US destroyers were able to close with the IJN destroyers undetected due to radar but Takanami, who was at the head of the column, was able to spot them before they could open fire.
  3. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair, and development.
  4. She was sunk during the night battle at Tassafaronga.
  5. She ended up taking most of the fire from the US fleet at Tassafaronga because she was the closest ship to them.

  1. Because she always says 'kamo' which makes her sound unsure of herself.
  2. She sank an hour earlier.
  3. Tokyo Espresses, known as 'nezumi yuusou' (rat transports) in Japan, were supply runs done under cover of darkness to avoid Allied air attacks. She was doing one such run when she was sunk at Tassafaronga.
  4. Fricadeau Beef bears no resemblance to the French dish.
