Tips
The event is likely to have several shiplocks (E-1 to E-4 already contain 4 separate locks), please plan your locks carefully. For this operation, you will be organizing a various combined fleet to conduct transport operations across the Iwojima and Chichishima Islands. You will need to plan your fleet according to the various fleets you will encounter until you face powerful boss fleets. Once that is done, you will ultimately go into an intense battle to face off against the Destroyer Forest Princess who will have very powerful fleets to encounter both along the way and at the boss node itself. You will need to carefully plan how you will tackle these phases. The following things could be considered for this map:
Below is a list of all the historical ships, though this list is full of complicated historical reasons most are affiliated with the Fleet Matsu worked with and related to her gun fits she got in Yokosuka Naval Arsenal. Ship Bonuses (Tentative) Convoy No.4804 Bonus 5th Fleet Bonus Nachi, Ashigara, Aoba, Kinu, Tama, Abukuma, Kasumi, Hatsuharu, Shiranui, Ushio
Made in Yokusuka Naval Arsenal Bonus Chichishima/Iwojima Transport connection bonus Unique Weakness Bonus
Some ships also have bonuses in later maps! Kiso, Kiyoshimo, Hatakaze, Nowaki, Akizuki, Hatakaze and Tama is probably a safe choice to lock here. Zuihou while she has a significance for EOs. She has a significant high bonus for E-4 which makes her subject for debate for E-4 as she is a powerful unit to helping you clear on higher difficulties. Carefully consider whether you will use her here before you place her in this operation. In addition to this planes from the 931 Air Group are relevant to this operation and have a unique bonus on this map. The following planes are recommended to have:
It should be important to note that in order to benefit from the bonuses a carrier must be equipped with different version of said 931 air planes. Below is a list of all the bonuses carrier provide depending on the nodes:
As a heads up to all players reading this guide, as of current we will only include Single, TCF and CTF comps. Unlike other guides, we cannot in good faith recommend Nagato+Mutsu for this map due to the unknown factor that is the EO maps. While this makes clearing the map more difficult, it is still possible with a strong CTF comp and the appropriate equipment. If you lack equipment or ships, you should still wait until EOs are released before committing, as we will have a better sense of what EOs require by then. As a final word of warning to any player that tries to attempt to do this map at this moment: This is one map that might be better to waiting until eos are released to fully determine what ships will be safe to really bring in here. As the cost of what you can bring in here may pay with a possibly serious price once EOs are released! Introduction In this operation there will be lots of tasks you'll be needing to complete as you will need to work through a series of transport operations, unlocking paths and reaching other locations to do similar things until you face off against the boss. Overall you will be challenged in both endurance and determining which ships you can safely bring into various operations. So please ready all the above and carefully plan as before the EO's release there can be potential consequences especially from this map which shows to be one of the more difficult maps that may make you spend your historical in order to complete it. Overall the task you will need to do is as follows:
Below will be a guide to on how to proceed all the following steps: Pre-Event setup: Your 3rd Land Base In this operation 2 out of 3 of your land bases will be used in combat while the last one will be set on defense. Since your last base will be taking a defensive role, the recommended set up should be provided for it:
Once again, the land base air raid has a high altitude bomber mechanic implemented meaning that if you have some rocket interceptors, proceed to use up to 2. As the 110% modifier will allow it to clear out and minimize that damage you'd otherwise take from it. in the best case scenario you'll only suffer small plane loss or no damage at all if done correctly. If you lack rocket interceptors, use whatever interceptor you have available. Transport Supplies to Chichi-jima (Node M) In this phase you will be organizing a fleet to reach node M while transporting supplies: Overall a transport combined fleet is the best option to use on this segment. You will mainly be facing subs and small torpedo squadron fleets along the trip prior to the boss: Transport Combined Fleet
The path is overall simple and the boss is an Aircraft Carrier Princess with a pair of heavy cruisers, tsu-class and destroyers. Your land base should wipe out most of the units while any survivors will be taken out by your remaining ships. Your CVE with the 931 Air Group bombers will likely take out the Carrier Princess if a CVCI procs, otherwise can be easily finished in night battle for an easy S rank. Repeat the process until TP gauge is depleted. Unlock to path to Iwo-Jima For this phase you will need to clear two nodes that are needed to unlock the path to R and depending on the difficulty the following will be needed:
Single Fleet Method
Single Fleet Method
Single Fleet Method
Once all conditions are complete, the path to node R will be open. Transport Supplies to Iwo-Jima (Node R) Once again, you will be doing another transport operation, this time heading to Node R, while the path is similar, you will be facing slightly tougher submarines, and fleets along the path. There are several methods to clearing this path, though the most preferred method to clear this quicker would be to use Transport Combined Fleet. Below is a list of all the methods commonly used for this phase.
The Heavy Cruiser Summer Princess is a more difficult fleet to take down compared to the previous, but like before, a concentrated Land Base attack on her node along with a carrier or carriers) with 931 Air Group planes is the most effective way to clear out most if not all the enemy fleets. The process is mostly identical to the last transport phase. Once you are able to successfully deplete the TP gauge, the final boss gauge will appear and you can proceed to the unlocking segment. Unlock the path to the Destroyer Forest Princess For this segment, all you will need to do is return to Node M again. If you are on Medium difficulty or higher you will need to complete this step. Otherwise, ignore this step and move on to the next one. The process should be the same as part 1 so please refer to the following: Transport Combined Fleet
All step should be the same. Just get an S rank at the boss and the path should open.
For this segment you have to face off against surface ships, subs and air attacks with the most notable fight being Node X which will have a Battleship Summer Princess as the pre boss. You will need to muster a powerful fleet to tackle this segment. As there will be lots of potential threats prior to the boss herself. The following fleet should be considered for this segment: Carrier Task Force Fleet
Destroyer Forest Princess is a rather strong boss that comes with strong attacks a notably high AA and has the potential along with the rest of her crew to knock out land base bombers easily. Because of this, she can pose quite a threat to the performance of your land based bombers and carriers strength over time. You will need to prepare accordingly as you progress through the fight. The main goal should be to knock out as many of the escorts as you can over the fight and leave the shelling phase to your carriers in hopes that you can severely damage or one shot all the major enemies out of the way to make killing the princess easier. In fact, it is possible to take down said princess with your carriers if you are fortunate enough. But otherwise a historical TCI ship can lay waste to her quickly making it easier to win. Be aware though that as of current the TCI ship roster is still under evaluation since most ships related to ship may be related to EO to pursue at your own risk. Continue to defeat the princess until last dance where you will need to then proceed to debuff her before carrying out the final kill. Debuff Destroyer Forest Princess Once you get the princess down to the final kill, you will then need to return to various nodes including boss nodes and protect your land base to complete some necessary steps to debuff the princess. The following methods are provided below:
Below are the steps needed clear the following requirement:
Transport Combined Fleet
Single Fleet
Carrier Task Force Fleet
Single Fleet
Once all conditions are met the princess will be debuffed on the final kill. All ships will get a 1.2x bonus modifier for the final kill segment against Destroyer Forest Princess. Deliver the Final Blow to the Destroyer Forest Princess The process to doing this will be the same if you set up your formation during the initial phase of the battle. The main thing to look out for assuming you play hard mode will be Node X which will be harder to pass and that the Princess will still be strong, but will be more vulnerable to attacks. She now also is accompanied by an additional battleship princess Kai and a Ne-class Kai to spice things up. It is recommended to fully train your land base planes and your carriers planes to double chevlon before attempting to do the clear run. Also may be worth sparkling all your fleets including support expeditions which will be the key to success on this segment. If all goes well, your carriers should one shot most if not almost all the enemies, and if lucky enough, you may successfully take out the Princess while at it. Otherwise a well place TCI from a historical ships like Abukuma or Kasumi can work if all else fails (pending if they are needed for EOs) Once the Destroyer Forest Princess is sunk, the operation is considered completed and the Main Operations are then finished.
