===Flagship Protection===
* Vanguard is only available when the Event World is active. It is usable in any map during such time, however.
+
'''Flagship Protection''' is when a non-flagship protects the flagship from being targeted by receiving the attack instead. When activated, a "curved shield" animation plays in front of the flagship's banner.
* The modifiers on Vanguard Formation refer respectively to the "upper half" and "bottom half" of the fleet.
+
* Activation rate is determined solely by the selected formation. If activated, a ship with HP above Minor Damage ({{lang|ja|小破}}) is randomly selected to be the protector.
 +
** If no ships are above Minor Damage, flagship protection cannot activate.
 +
** Having more ships above Minor Damage does not increase the rate.
 +
* It may activate on any type of attack, including shelling, torpedo, ASW, airstrike, and support.
 +
* Submarines do not protect surface ships. Surface ships do not protect submarines.
 +
* Installations cannot perform protection, and cannot receive protection if they are flagship.
 +
* In combined fleet, the escort flagship does not receive flagship protection.

* '''Attacks from support fleets are affected by the top row multipliers, meaning the 50% damage modifier is applied.'''
* The bottom half ships have increased aggro (increased chance of being targeted by the enemy), being targeted 75% of the time. See [1] for tested values. Valid as of 09/03/2018.
+

** For ships at the upper half: '''Non-destroyers''' get a '''5%''' bonus. '''Destroyers''' get a '''20%''' bonus.
** For ships at the top half: Non-destroyers get a 5% bonus. Destroyers get a 20% bonus.
+

 +
** This bonus applies to shelling and torpedoes, but not airstrike.
 +
* Bottom half ships have increased chance to be targeted.
 +
** The targeting is determined as follows: 1. Randomly select any ship from the fleet. 2. If the selected ship is an upper half ship, randomly select any ship from the fleet again.<ref>https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/974571652229955584</ref>
 +
** Target rate per ship (without flagship protection) based on the above procedure:
