During events, qualified players gain access to special a time-limited world with special maps, which usually reference historical operations; the only exception was a collaboration event with the Arpeggio franchise: [[Christmas 2013 Event|''Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova'']]. Event maps stay up for an indeterminate amount of time, usually measured in weeks, which grew as the game progressed to be anywhere between 2 and 8 weeks.

Event maps pose considerably higher challenge levels compared to normal maps, employing exclusive [[Enemy vessel#Bosses|special Abyssal Fleet bosses]] and mechanics, such as the [[Combined Fleet]].

===Stockpiling===
Accumulating a stockpile of resources ({{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}}{{Bauxite}}) and consumables (buckets{{IR}} and flamethrowers{{IC}}) prior to the event start or during the weeks that lead up to an event is extremely recommended.
* Using the soft cap mechanic to your advantage might be beneficial should the situation demand it. For each resource under the soft cap, it is generated up to 1440 for {{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}} and 480 for {{Bauxite}}, per day.
** For reference, expedition 5 being run non-stop will bring in a gross of 3850 fuel and ammo, and 257 steel and bauxite per day.
** As buckets and flamethrowers do not regen over time, focusing on stocking them might be preferable on a higher priority. Expeditions 02, 04 & A2 for buckets and [[2-1]] for flamethrowers are good ways to farm with very high efficiency and low maintenance.
** Fuel and ammo are the most used resources and also the most easily obtained resources through expeditions. Steel is used on a much smaller scale in comparison, but is substantially harder to stockpile in a shorter period of time. Bauxite uses will vary depending on each particular map.
