The Fall 2017 Event is scheduled to begin on November 17th, 2017. This Event is titled "Showdown at Operation Shou-Gou! Battle of Leyte Gulf (Part 1)".

This event will focus on the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Unlike previous events, the Battle of Leyte Gulf will be split into two separate events. The Fall Event will be Part 1, while the Winter 2018 Event will be Part 2 of the event. It has been confirmed that the final map of Part 1 will be related to the Battle of Surigao Strait.

The Event will introduce a new Fleet mechanic known as the Striking Force Fleet which will allow you to organize a 7 ship fleet. A new formation known as the Vangaurd Formation which will protect the 1st and 2nd ships in the fleet. Finally, the Single Fleet Evacuation which will be allow you to send one ship back to your base from a Stirking Force Fleet if a ship takes Heavy Damage in battle.

Details about the event mentioned in the KanColle Naval Review, Kensuke Tanaka's interview in November's Comptiq, and the interview in December's Comptiq have noted that the event will feature the Akizuki-class Destroyer Suzutsuki and several other "smaller ships".

The current scale of the event is known to be Medium Scale. There will be a total of four maps.

Recent tweets as well as updates to voice lines and CGs indicate that the event will involve the Battle of the Surigao Strait.

Additional information regarding event-related subjects and content will be revealed by dev tweets and other materials.

For additional information regarding event-related subjects and content, please refer to the following links:

Historical Background

Disclaimer: The following information is based upon a summary of World War II history and may not have any influence with the game itself. This is for historical reference only.

Battle of the Leyte Gulf

Wikipedia Article on Battle of Leyte Gulf

Known to be the largest Naval Battle in history which occurred in waters near the Philippine islands of Leyte, Samar and Luzon, from 23–26 October 1944, between the US Navy and Australian Forces vs. the Imperial Japanese Navy as the, fought over the Island of Leyte that served as the IJN's main supply line. Due to the size of this battle, it's recommended to go view the Wikipedia Article on the Battle of Leyte Gulf for additional details. The Fall 2017 Event itself will focus mainly on the Southern IJN's counter-attack operation to attack through the Surigao Strait and the fleet's involved in it.

First Striking Force (1YB), Third Group - Nishimura's Fleet

The fleet lead by Admiral Shouji Nishimura, who would be one of the main fleets that would lead the attack into the Surigao Strait on the night of October 24th, 1944. It would be at this strait he would meet his end after running into an ambush conducted by the US Navy's 7th Support Fleet.

The ships that he had within his fleet were: Yamashiro (Flagship) (Sunk), Fusou (Sunk), Mogami (Sunk), Yamagumo (Sunk), Asagumo (Sunk), Michishio (Sunk), and Shigure.

Second Striking Force (2YB) - Shima's Fleet

The Fleet lead by Admiral Kiyohide Shima, who served as the second part of the Fleet that would conduct an attack against the US Navy at Leyte. He along with Nishimura attempted to invade the Suirgao Strait on the night of October 24th, 1944, however after witnessing the fall of Admiral Nishimura's Fleet due to the ambush and bad timing with keeping the fleet in sync Nishimura. He was forced to retreat thus preventing the attack on the Leyte Gulf from the South.


The ships that he had within his fleet were: Nachi, Ashigara, Abukuma, Shiranui, Kasumi, Ushio, and Akebono.


Other members of the Second Striking Force (2YB)

While note entirely connected to the Battle of the Suirgao Strait, there were other ships in Shima's Fleet who were a part of his fleet that were also formerly part of Nishmura's Fleet. Wether or not they'll have any impact on the event is unknown.

The Fleet Members consisted of: Wakaba, Hatsushimo, Hatsuharu, Aoba, Kinu, and Uranami


Battle of the Surigao Strait

Wikipedia Article on Battle of the Surigao Strait

Battle of the Surigao Strait was conducted on the night of October 24th, 1944 by the Nishimura Fleet and Shima Fleet in an attempt to attack the US forces invading the Island of Leyte at the dawn. However, due to the US's anticipation of incoming forces that were planning to attack they were able set up an ambush which would catch Nishimura's Fleet off guard getting caught "Crossing the T" and would allow the US's 7th Fleet to launch a devistating attack that would pretty much destroy the entire fleet (outside of Shigure who barely survived) and forcing Shima's fleet to retreat. For more details, look at the wikipedia article above.

    • Choosing A or B requires certain HQ Level (HQ Lv 35 for B / 80 for A in Spring 2015 Event).
    • An important note to all Admirals intending to clear the event on Hard difficulty - further (new) conditions now apply:
      • When switching difficulty from any other difficulty to Hard, the map's debuff mechanism (where applicable) will be reset.
        • Switching between any other difficulties will not reset the debuff mechanism.
  2. The debuff system from Summer 2015 Event's final map, where certain nodes had to be killed to reduce boss armor will return.
  3. New: This event (Fall 2017) will allow a fleet with seven ships (Striking Force Fleet) to sortie to certain event maps that allow single fleet operations starting from E-2, and also includes the final map of the event.
    • The Striking Force cannot be sortied during exercises or sent on expeditions while it contains seven ships.
    • The Striking Force can only be created and used in the third fleet in the menu (out of a total of four fleets).
    • A Striking Force with a flagship that carries a new piece of equipment, the Striking Force Fleet Command Facility, will be able to make use of the new Single Ship Evacuation mechanic.
      • The new Single Ship Evacuation mechanic that will become available for the Striking Force as of E-4 allowing a single ship in the fleet to retreat from the battlefield after an enemy engagement if she suffered heavy damage.
        • It is possible for the damage to become even worse during a Single Ship Evacuation.
        • Unlike the Combined Fleet's evacuation mechanic, it does not require an escort destroyer.
      • The new Striking Force Fleet Command Facility will become obtainable and useable via the old Fleet Command Facility and the Action Report that can be earned in the upcoming Fall Event. The Fleet Command Facility as well as the new Action Report item will be obtainable on all difficulty levels, including Medium and Easy Mode.
      • Supplementary information regarding the new Striking Force Fleet Command Facility and the Single Ship Evacuation it allows when carried by the striking force's flagship:
        • The evacuation does not require an escort destroyer.
        • The evacuation consumes the ship's entire fuel & ammo reserves.
        • Only one ship can be evacuated per battle.
        • The damage the ship suffered may become worse during the evacuation, but she will never sink.
  4. New: Starting with this event, a new Fleet formation will be introduced called the Vanguard Formation.
    • This formation will organise the fleet such that the 3rd-6th/7th ships protect the Flagship and 2nd Ship of the Fleet.
      • Details of this formation as well as its effects in-game are To Be Confirmed.
      • The formation will be usable by both normal fleets as well as the Striking Force Fleet.
