'''Note:'''
*Fast battleships share the same hull classification with slow Battleships.
*Terms "''Kūbo''" (空母) is a shorthand for "''Kōkū bokan''" (航空母艦), which means "''Aircraft Carrier''".
*<strike>There is actually no hull classification code for armored carriers, but Kancolle-fans keep using CVB which actually was for big aircraft carriers like Shinano.</strike>
==General==
===API link===
Method to play the game without having to access the official [http://www.dmm.com/ DMM] website. See [[Tutorial: Proxy Connection#Play_without_VPN.2FProxy|Play without VPN/Proxy]] for detailed information.
===Crossing the T===
Classic naval strategy in which a line of warships cross in front of a line formation of enemy ships, allowing the crossing line to bring all their guns to bear while receiving fire from only the forward guns of the enemy. Gameplay wise, when your fleet crosses the enemy fleet, '''BOTH''' sides (counter-intuitively) gain a significant increase in damage dealt. When the opponent crosses your fleet, '''BOTH''' sides gain a signficiant damage decrease.
===Docking===
{{details|Docking}}
Allow your damaged ships to be repaired to full health. The repair, also known as "bath" requires steel and fuel, and will take "some" time to complete. You can use the Instant repair item/Bucket (高速修復材) to instantly complete the repair.
===Expedition===
{{details|Expedition}} This is where you send your fleets to complete expeditions, in exchange for resources and certain items. For some ships and items, the only way to obtain them is by doing expedition. None of the expeditions involve combat, so you won't have to worry about losing any of your ships. You will, however, need to resupply their fuel tanks once the expedition is finished. Also, it is one of the main sources of income.
===Food supply ship Mamiya===
[[File:Mamiya_blinking_icon.png|thumb|Blinking button in the 'Organize' menu showing that Mamiya's food can be used.]]
Removes any fatigue on your fleet. If you don't use it, it could function as a fatigue indicator, as it informs you of when a girl in your fleet has fatigue, even without the orange fatigue indiciation. See [[wikipedia:Japanese food supply ship Mamiya|here for the Wikipedia entry]].
===Modernization===
{{details|Modernization}}
Process of using unused ships to increase stats (Firepower, AA, Torpedo, Armor) of a single ship. Also known as Merging.
===Naval Exercise===
PVP-like battle with no risk of repair and sinking, and only costs the player fuel, ammo and bauxite. Opponent teams update in real-time, but there is no simultaneous play.
*New opponent list refreshed at 03:00 and 15:00 JST
===Phases of Battle===
*Day Battle
*#Reconnaissance (Stat boost, avoid being [[#Crossing the T|T-crossed]])
*#Initial airstrike (opening bombing, air superiority)
*#Support fleet attack
*#Opening/initial torpedo strike (see [[#Midget Submarine|Type A Ko-hyoteki (甲標的甲型)]])
*#Shelling/artillery phase (regular airstrike happens here)
*#Torpedo salvo
*Night Battle
===Remodel===
Often confused with Modernization, will usually result in *ship name*-Kai (改). also known as Upgrading.
===Fatigue===
{{details|Tutorial: FAQ#Alright, I built my ship, kicked some ass and I noticed the orange faces. What gives?|l1=Alright, I built my ship, kicked some ass and I noticed the orange faces. What gives?}} Orange/sad faces are displayed next to the ship icon if they are too fatigued. Rest them for 15 minutes or so if it happens. Fatigue will reduce by 3 every 3 minutes.
Fatigued ships will have lower accuracy and evasion.
If your ships are still fatigued upon returning from expedition, your '''expedition will end up failing even with all other criteria fullfilled.'''
===Sparkle===
{{details|Tutorial: FAQ#My ship is sparkling.2Fglittering.21|l1=My ship is sparkling/glittering!}}
The polar opposite of Fatigue. If one or more of your ships sparkle, they will gain evasion boost during sortie. The evasion boost stats are not shown in your ship stats directly. Or, if you choose to send a sparkling ship on an expedition, it will have a chance for 150% resource gain and a higher likelihood of returning with a special item (note that this requires the entire fleet to be consisting of sparkling ships).
==='''Medal'''===
Medal(勲章), is a multi-purpose item that can be used to exchange for a small amount of resources '''or''' a remodel blueprint(改装設計図).
*1 medal can be used to exchange for '''{{Fuel}} x354, {{Ammo}} x354, {{Steel}} x354, {{Bauxite}} x354 and {{IR}} x2'''.
*4 medals are needed to exchange for '''1 x remodel blueprint.'''
Medals can be obtained by clearing certain maps. You can find the amount of medals owned by accessing the Item page(アイテム) at the top menu bar of the main screen. Remodel blueprint is needed to remodel certain ships.
[[Tutorial:_FAQ#How_do_you_exchange_medals_for_rewards.3F|How to exchange medals for rewards?]]
===Tracer-fire effect===
This occurs when a ship fires any equipped machine guns to defend itself, reducing incoming damage from enemy bombers. Your flagship will always do this by default, even without any anti-air stat.
==Equipment==
===Color-coded Aircraft===
*{{Template:RedPlane}}Red Plane: Carrier-based [[List of Dive Bombers by stats|Dive Bomber]]
*{{Template:BluePlane}}Blue Plane: Carrier-based [[List of Torpedo Bombers by stats|Torpedo Bomber]]
*{{Template:GreenPlane}}Green Plane: Carrier-based [[List_of_Fighters_by_stats|Fighter]]
*{{Template:YellowPlane}}Yellow Plane: Carrier-based [[List_of_Aircraft_by_stats_(other)|Recon Aircraft]]
*{{Template:Seaplane}}Light Green Plane: [[List of Seaplanes by stats|Seaplane]] Bomber and Reconnaissance Seaplane
===Color-coded Naval Guns===
It is based on their '''roles''', not ability.
*{{Template:RedGunMedium}}Red Gun: Main Gun; Primarily used against ships, with a secondary role as AA.
*{{Template:YellowGun}}Yellow Gun: Secondary Gun; increase in accuracy and AA stats.
*Green Gun: High-angle dual-purpose guns or AA machine guns
**{{Template:GreenGunDP}}High-angle guns have the ability to effectively attack both aircraft '''and''' ships.
**{{Template:GreenGunMG}}AA machine guns specifically attack aircraft and always trigger tracer-fire effect.
===Midget Submarine===
Also known by it's design code name Type A Kou-hyoteki ({{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}甲標的甲型) which literally means Target Type A, it's a submarine equipable on Torpedo Cruiser (e.g. Kitakami), Submarine, and Seaplane Tender. Frequently used because of their ability to attack before the shelling phase.
===Turbine===
<span style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Turbine</span>{{Template:Turbine}} are equippable on any ship. Turbine increases the evasion stat causing enemies have higher miss rate.
==Trivia==
===!すでのな===
One of [[Inazuma]]'s lines written "backwards", in traditional Japanese format. Also appears as a wall scroll in the furniture page.
===2-4-11===
'''The fleet idol, [[Naka|Naka-chan]] dayo!~''' (see [[wikipedia:AKB48|number 48]] designation).<br />
2-4-11 refers to the fuel/ammo/steel combination received from her scrap.
[[File:Yukikaze.jpg|right|thumb|A picture of <s>Yukikaze</s> Beaver]]
===Beaver===
See [[Yukikaze]] and notice the similarities. pic related. Japanese fans call her 'Hamster' instead.
===Big Seven===
A group of warship built to carry the biggest naval gun (41cm) allowed by the [[wikipedia:Washington Naval Treaty|Washington Naval Treaty]]. It comprise of [[Nagato]], [[Mutsu]], USS West Virginia, USS Maryland, USS Colorado, HMS Rodney, and HMS Nelson.
===BURNING LOVE===
Notable line from [[Kongou]], a Kongou-class battleship built by Vickers Shipbuilding Company. Loves tea and fond of using English words due to her being built in England.
Other examples:
*提督ゥ~、You've Got Mail! Love letterは許さないからネ!
*Wow! Congratulations!
*Tea timeは大事にしないとネー
===KTKM===
Shorthand for [[Kitakami]]. Wordplay from Japanese netslang KTKR which is read as kita kore, literally 'it's here', sort of like 'woohoo I got it' or 'I've been waiting for this!'.
===Melon-chan===
Nickname for [[Yuubari]] due to her uniform color scheme and general resemblance to a melon as well as the city of Yuubari, on the namesake Yuubari river, which is well known for its melons.
===Rensouhou-chan (連装砲ちゃん)===
A Danbo-like robot which appears with [[Shimakaze]]. [[Amatsukaze]], having a more formal character, calls hers Rensouhou-kun instead.
[[File:Chart-Breast.jpg|thumb|right]]
===RJ/Airport===
Light Carrier [[Ryujo|Ryūjō]] which [http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=38264819 has a <strike>second flight deck</strike> very flat chest.] Don't complain about it, the chart agrees.
===Tenryuu Kindergarten===
A common theme where [[Tenryuu]] and her destroyers escort was regularly used in expeditions due to her low fuel and ammo cost. The official 4-koma also showed Tenryuu as being good at taking care of children (destroyers), hence the name.
===Zekamashi (ぜかまし)===
[[Shimakaze]]'s name read backward (in traditional Japanese, characters are read right-to-left). Found on one of the Rensouhou-chan's life buoy.

'''Note:'''
*Fast battleships share the same hull classification with slow Battleships.
*Terms "''Kūbo''" (空母) is a shorthand for "''Kōkū bokan''" (航空母艦), which means "''Aircraft Carrier''".
*<strike>There is actually no hull classification code for armored carriers, but Kancolle-fans keep using CVB which actually was for big aircraft carriers like Shinano.</strike>
==General==
===API link===
Method to play the game without having to access the official [http://www.dmm.com/ DMM] website. See [[Tutorial: Proxy Connection#Play_without_VPN.2FProxy|Play without VPN/Proxy]] for detailed information.
===Crossing the T===
Classic naval strategy in which a line of warships cross in front of a line formation of enemy ships, allowing the crossing line to bring all their guns to bear while receiving fire from only the forward guns of the enemy. Gameplay wise, when your fleet crosses the enemy fleet, '''BOTH''' sides (counter-intuitively) gain a significant increase in damage dealt. When the opponent crosses your fleet, '''BOTH''' sides gain a signficiant damage decrease.
===Docking===
{{details|Docking}}
Allow your damaged ships to be repaired to full health. The repair, also known as "bath" requires steel and fuel, and will take "some" time to complete. You can use the Instant repair item/Bucket (高速修復材) to instantly complete the repair.
===Expedition===
{{details|Expedition}} This is where you send your fleets to complete expeditions, in exchange for resources and certain items. For some ships and items, the only way to obtain them is by doing expedition. None of the expeditions involve combat, so you won't have to worry about losing any of your ships. You will, however, need to resupply their fuel tanks once the expedition is finished. Also, it is one of the main sources of income.
===Food supply ship Mamiya===
[[File:Mamiya_blinking_icon.png|thumb|Blinking button in the 'Organize' menu showing that Mamiya's food can be used.]]
Removes any fatigue on your fleet. If you don't use it, it could function as a fatigue indicator, as it informs you of when a girl in your fleet has fatigue, even without the orange fatigue indiciation. See [[wikipedia:Japanese food supply ship Mamiya|here for the Wikipedia entry]].
===Modernization===
{{details|Modernization}}
Process of using unused ships to increase stats (Firepower, AA, Torpedo, Armor) of a single ship. Also known as Merging.
===Naval Exercise===
PVP-like battle with no risk of repair and sinking, and only costs the player fuel, ammo and bauxite. Opponent teams update in real-time, but there is no simultaneous play.
*New opponent list refreshed at 03:00 and 15:00 JST
===Phases of Battle===
*Day Battle
*#Reconnaissance (Stat boost, avoid being [[#Crossing the T|T-crossed]])
*#Initial airstrike (opening bombing, air superiority)
*#Support fleet attack
*#Opening/initial torpedo strike (see [[#Midget Submarine|Type A Ko-hyoteki (甲標的甲型)]])
*#Shelling/artillery phase (regular airstrike happens here)
*#Torpedo salvo
*Night Battle
===Remodel===
Often confused with Modernization, will usually result in *ship name*-Kai (改). also known as Upgrading.
===Fatigue===
{{details|Tutorial: FAQ#Alright, I built my ship, kicked some ass and I noticed the orange faces. What gives?|l1=Alright, I built my ship, kicked some ass and I noticed the orange faces. What gives?}} Orange/sad faces are displayed next to the ship icon if they are too fatigued. Rest them for 15 minutes or so if it happens. Fatigue will reduce by 3 every 3 minutes.
Fatigued ships will have lower accuracy and evasion.
If your ships are still fatigued upon returning from expedition, your '''expedition will end up failing even with all other criteria fullfilled.'''
===Sparkle===
{{details|Tutorial: FAQ#My ship is sparkling.2Fglittering.21|l1=My ship is sparkling/glittering!}}
The polar opposite of Fatigue. If one or more of your ships sparkle, they will gain evasion boost during sortie. The evasion boost stats are not shown in your ship stats directly. Or, if you choose to send a sparkling ship on an expedition, it will have a chance for 150% resource gain and a higher likelihood of returning with a special item (note that this requires the entire fleet to be consisting of sparkling ships).
==='''Medal'''===
Medal(勲章), is a multi-purpose item that can be used to exchange for a small amount of resources '''or''' a remodel blueprint(改装設計図).
*1 medal can be used to exchange for '''{{Fuel}} x354, {{Ammo}} x354, {{Steel}} x354, {{Bauxite}} x354 and {{IR}} x2'''.
*4 medals are needed to exchange for '''1 x remodel blueprint.'''
Medals can be obtained by clearing certain maps. You can find the amount of medals owned by accessing the Item page(アイテム) at the top menu bar of the main screen. Remodel blueprint is needed to remodel certain ships.
[[Tutorial:_FAQ#How_do_you_exchange_medals_for_rewards.3F|How to exchange medals for rewards?]]
===Tracer-fire effect===
This occurs when a ship fires any equipped machine guns to defend itself, reducing incoming damage from enemy bombers. Your flagship will always do this by default, even without any anti-air stat.
==Equipment==
===Color-coded Aircraft===

*{{Template:BluePlane}}Blue Plane: Carrier-based [[List of Torpedo Bombers by stats|Torpedo Bomber]]
*{{Template:GreenPlane}}Green Plane: Carrier-based [[List_of_Fighters_by_stats|Fighter]]
*{{Template:YellowPlane}}Yellow Plane: Carrier-based [[List_of_Aircraft_by_stats_(other)|Recon Aircraft]]
*{{Template:Seaplane}}Light Green Plane: [[List of Seaplanes by stats|Seaplane]] Bomber and Reconnaissance Seaplane
===Color-coded Naval Guns===
It is based on their '''roles''', not ability.
*{{Template:RedGunMedium}}Red Gun: Main Gun; Primarily used against ships, with a secondary role as AA.
*{{Template:YellowGun}}Yellow Gun: Secondary Gun; increase in accuracy and AA stats.
*Green Gun: High-angle dual-purpose guns or AA machine guns
**{{Template:GreenGunDP}}High-angle guns have the ability to effectively attack both aircraft '''and''' ships.
**{{Template:GreenGunMG}}AA machine guns specifically attack aircraft and always trigger tracer-fire effect.
===Midget Submarine===
Also known by it's design code name Type A Kou-hyoteki ({{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}甲標的甲型) which literally means Target Type A, it's a submarine equipable on Torpedo Cruiser (e.g. Kitakami), Submarine, and Seaplane Tender. Frequently used because of their ability to attack before the shelling phase.
===Turbine===
<span style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">Turbine</span>{{Template:Turbine}} are equippable on any ship. Turbine increases the evasion stat causing enemies have higher miss rate.
==Trivia==
===!すでのな===
One of [[Inazuma]]'s lines written "backwards", in traditional Japanese format. Also appears as a wall scroll in the furniture page.
===2-4-11===
'''The fleet idol, [[Naka|Naka-chan]] dayo!~''' (see [[wikipedia:AKB48|number 48]] designation).<br />
2-4-11 refers to the fuel/ammo/steel combination received from her scrap.
[[File:Yukikaze.jpg|right|thumb|A picture of <s>Yukikaze</s> Beaver]]
===Beaver===
See [[Yukikaze]] and notice the similarities. pic related. Japanese fans call her 'Hamster' instead.
===Big Seven===
A group of warship built to carry the biggest naval gun (41cm) allowed by the [[wikipedia:Washington Naval Treaty|Washington Naval Treaty]]. It comprise of [[Nagato]], [[Mutsu]], USS West Virginia, USS Maryland, USS Colorado, HMS Rodney, and HMS Nelson.
===BURNING LOVE===
Notable line from [[Kongou]], a Kongou-class battleship built by Vickers Shipbuilding Company. Loves tea and fond of using English words due to her being built in England.
Other examples:
*提督ゥ~、You've Got Mail! Love letterは許さないからネ!
*Wow! Congratulations!
*Tea timeは大事にしないとネー
===KTKM===
Shorthand for [[Kitakami]]. Wordplay from Japanese netslang KTKR which is read as kita kore, literally 'it's here', sort of like 'woohoo I got it' or 'I've been waiting for this!'.
===Melon-chan===
Nickname for [[Yuubari]] due to her uniform color scheme and general resemblance to a melon as well as the city of Yuubari, on the namesake Yuubari river, which is well known for its melons.
===Rensouhou-chan (連装砲ちゃん)===
A Danbo-like robot which appears with [[Shimakaze]]. [[Amatsukaze]], having a more formal character, calls hers Rensouhou-kun instead.
[[File:Chart-Breast.jpg|thumb|right]]
===RJ/Airport===
Light Carrier [[Ryujo|Ryūjō]] which [http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=38264819 has a <strike>second flight deck</strike> very flat chest.] Don't complain about it, the chart agrees.
===Tenryuu Kindergarten===
A common theme where [[Tenryuu]] and her destroyers escort was regularly used in expeditions due to her low fuel and ammo cost. The official 4-koma also showed Tenryuu as being good at taking care of children (destroyers), hence the name.
===Zekamashi (ぜかまし)===
[[Shimakaze]]'s name read backward (in traditional Japanese, characters are read right-to-left). Found on one of the Rensouhou-chan's life buoy.
