⚙ Mechanics Update

Ka-Tsu Animation
Ka-Tsu:
Ka-Tsu Kai:

Uniquely on "Atoll Nodes", it is possible to deploy the Ka-Tsu tanks
to trigger a special Opening Torpedo Salvo.

• On those nodes, regular oTorp will not work,
• This can only be deployed by SS, SSV, and the AV Mikuma Kai Ni Toku, Nisshin A, and Mizuho Kai fast,
  • They must carry at least one Ka-Tsu tank,
• On the "atoll node", ships meeting those requirements will carry out a special opening torpedo attack,
• In night battle, those ships will additionally trigger the same attack as a cutin,
  • This attack overrides regular Night Cut-ins attacks (e.g. if a ship is setuped for a TCI, it will still trigger the Ka-Tsu attack).
• Using several Ka-Tsu tanks on a same ship will make it carry out several of those attacks in a row (day and night),
  • It capped at 2 attacks per ship at night.
  • This attack utilizes a new special animation, with the tank climbing the atoll's soil.

• The admiral max HQ experience has been increased by 10 % from 360 000 000 to 396 000 000.
• AGDP are no longer required for Ise-class Kai Ni.

🐞Bug

• It seems that the stat given by the new Ka-Tsu tanks is not accounted properly.
• On the 1-6 & 3-5 special Resource Nodes, the new Ka-Tsu tanks behave as Daihatsu Landing Craft and not as regular Amphibious Tanks.
• The animation layers of the CVCI are wrongly displayed.

Misc

• The banning of botting accounts should have happened on this update, but was delayed to a later date due to maintenance delays.
