Special Mechanics

1. Combined fleet mechanics - Ships requirement is changed, First Fleet now only allows 1 CV(B) or 2 CVLs, 4 BBs and 1 Wild card that is not BB, CV or CVL. Second Fleet requirement still remains the same.
2. Change in combat nodes - Combined Fleet will now have to go through shelling phrase rather that only having aerial phrase. However, First Fleet will begin shelling first before Second Fleet does.
3. Ships that are used in E1 and E2 cannot be used in E-3 (as well as ships used in E3 cannot be used in E1 and E2).  However, you can use all your ships (even those used in E1, E2 and E3) in E4. No one is locked out of E4.

Branching rules
Tips Node A and E are maelstroms that deduct Fuel. You may deploy a maximum of 2 CVLs. You may deploy a maximum of 5 BBs. So far, no formation has been found that does not pass through node A. Having even one BB will lead you through A-B-F-E-G-H-I most of the time, meaning five battles. Having a fleet of small/medium-sized ships will take you through A-B-F-H-I. You may deploy CLTs on your second fleet, they make the map much, much easier!

E-4: 敵機動部隊迎撃戦
