Christmas 2013 Event

This event is a collaboration between "Kantai Collection" and "Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova". It has smaller scale compared to previous events, and the event takes place from December 24th, 2013 to January 8, 2014.

With the exception of I-401 (original Kancolle's I-401 from E-3, not Iona/Arpeggio's I-401), the Fog Ships are event-only ships, which will be removed when the event ends.

Map Details

To begin, you have to obtain Iona in order to unlock the first event map. Also on the later maps you will have to complete quests to unlock subsequent stages, rather than just completing the previous map.

E-2 - 硫黄島沖海戦

• Boss gauge does not regenerate.
  

  E-2 Map
• Boss must be sunk in order to damage health bar.
• Boss kill remove 25% of the health bar.
• Reward Mamiya Food supply, Emergency Repair, Furniture Fairy upon clearing.
• E-2 map has two routes, the upper one has Kirishima as flagship while the lower route has Maya as flagship.
• E-2 map contains a fuel node in the lower route.

Tips:

• Do not bring CV or CVL into this map as fleet of fog ships have very high AA and firepower.
• Depending on your HQ level, you may encounter Elite ships instead of the normal (blue) ones.
• The lower path is easier because it has Maya instead of Kirishima
• At boss node, use line abreast formation to survive until night battle, when your fleet is at maximum power. Also pray for RNG to not let the enemy fleet of fog trigger Klein Field or Particle Beam Cannon.
• There is no credible evidence that Line Abreast increases evasion. None. Unless you're fighting subs, which you aren't, there is no reason to use anything except Line Ahead.
