• A list of working compositions that work: (These must have possible alternatives for players who may or may not have all ships needed for a specific path)

• The Path said composition will take (To explain what path the composition will take)

• A summary or description of what kind of obstacles a composition will face.

• A description of the boss node, what it consist and a descriptive guide on what the player should consider for a course of action to successfully win the battle.

• (Optional) Tips to farm to take path to collect certain ships (This will also require a composition, path, and possible description.

E3-1

Phase 1 is a TP Phase, with 350/350/500/750 points required on Casual/Easy/Medium/Hard.

Route: A-C-(E)-G-F-I-J-L-M-N

Fleet: 0-1 CL, 5-6 DD (A fleet with a CL will off-route to node E on Hard Mode; 6 bonus DDs recommended for Hard.)

A total of 0/?/3/4 drums, each equipped on different ships, are required on Casual/Easy/Medium/Hard for this route.

Recommended LBAS distribution:

• 2 LBAS with 4x LBAA each to boss (7 Range); OR
• 1 LBAS with 4x Toukai/ASW to Node C (2 Range), 1 LBAS with 4x LBAA to Boss.
• (Dunno if anyone's desperate enough to fighter sweep E/G or to send LBAA to J, I personally would not recommend.)

Support expeditions are not required, especially if Vanguard is being used (see below).

Generic AACI (API 5?) is sufficient for Node G. Vanguard formation is recommended at Nodes J & L. S-Ranking the boss is not strictly necessary, but if desired, the new Torpedo/SLO+/Torpedo and/or Torpedo/SLO+/Drum cut-ins may be useful.

• With a Reinforcement Expansion unlocked, a Torpedo/Torpedo/Drum/[SLO+] set-up may be utilised.
• SLO+ refers to Torpedo Squadron Skilled Lookouts.
