*Suggested Formation:
*Suggested Formations:
**2BB 2DD 2CVL (B -> D -> F -> H -> Z): This formation is good for chipping away at the gauge, but may lack damage output for finishing the boss.
**2BB 2DD 2CVL (B -> D -> F -> H -> Z)
**2BB 2DD 1CA(V) 1CVL (B -> D -> F -> H -> Z): Same as above, except trading bauxite (and possible air parity or worse at H) for damage at boss.
::*Pro: Less problem at node H if AS is obtained.
**3BB 2CA(V) 1CV (B -> D -> E -> G -> Z): Night battle route; suggested for attempts on final form due to F and H nodes reported to be harder.
::*Con: May lack the ability to finish the boss.
*FBBx2 CA(V)x2 DDx2
**2BB 2DD 1CA(V) 1CVL (B -> D -> F -> H -> Z or B -> D -> E -> G -> Z)
*FBBx2 CA(V)x3 CVL
::*Pro: Has more punch than the above formation to finish the boss.
::*Con: Either risk taking more damage at H or go through night battle nodes.
::For comparison, [[Chitose#Chitose Carrier Kai 2|Chitose]] with Reppu Kai (chevron), Reppu (chevron), and Shiden K2 (chevron) [127 fighter power before modifier] can gain AS at node H against Pattern 1, but can only get air parity against Pattern 2.
**3BB 2CA(V) 1CV (B -> D -> E -> G -> Z)
::*Pro: Night battle route good for attempts on final form due to F and H nodes reported to be harder.
::*Con: Night battle nodes are always chancy.
**2BB 1CV 2DD + [[Ryuujou]] (B -> D -> F -> H -> Z)
::*Pro: This allows enough air power at H to gain AS and mitigate damage.
::*Con: Admirals may already have RJ locked to other maps.
*Node E and G are night battles
*Node E and G are night battles
*225 FP required on Hard final kill for AS
*225 fighter power required on Hard final kill for AS
*Boss is installation-type. Consider bringing sanshiki or other equipment effective against installation enemies.
*Boss is installation-type. Consider bringing [[Type 3 Shell]] or other equipment effective against installation enemies.
:*If using 3 or more BB+CA(V), consider equipping a BB with AP shell (instead of [[Type 3 Shell]]) as flagship to eliminate escorts during daytime. This is especially important on hard due to the toughness of BB Ru Kai.
