やっぱり私、沈むの…?山城は無事だといいけれど…
  1. Technically true since the preceding Kawachi-class were classified as 'dreadnoughts' and not 'super dreadnoughts' by the IJN.
  2. She was sunk at the Battle of Surigao Strait before she could reach Leyte Gulf.
  3. She's saying her feelings toward you are still budding. Since '青い' can mean both 'blue' and 'unripened'.
  4. She was supposedly sunk by a magazine detonation.
  5. Turrets No.3 & 4 were mounted amidships along the ship's centerline, they had restricted firing arcs, & forced the boiler rooms to be placed between them non-ideally & with limited space. This required extra insulation & air conditioning in the magazines of turrets No.3 & 4 to protect them from the boiler rooms' heat.
  6. She had two modernizations done.
  7. Shared with Supply before Kai.
  8. Yamashiro likewise had two modernisations done.
  9. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  10. The Ise-class was built as an improved version of the Fusou-class and improved upon many of the flaws that became apparent with the Fusou-class.
  11. Referring to the Southern Force under Vice Admirals Nishimura Shoji and Shima Kiyohide at the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
  12. Because of the two turrets admidships, design sacrifices had to be made with the engine rooms and armor admidships.
  13. Shortly before sinking, a torpedo caused an oil fire.
  14. After she was torpedoed by the USS Melvin at Surigao, she fell out of formation and eventually sunk.

Trivia

Her abyssal form is assumed to be the Night Strait Princesses.

General Information
  • She takes her name from an ancient name for Japan.
    • 扶桑 (fusou) sounds similar to 不幸 (fukou) or 'misfortune', & 不相応 (fusouou) or 'misplaced' or 'unsuitable'.
  • She was launched on the 23rd of March 1914.
  • Sunk, by possibly USS Melvin, during night battle in the Battle of Surigao Strait, on the 25th of October 1944.
  • Wreck located on the 25th of November 2017 by RV Petrel. She is upside down in 185 meters (607 feet) of water and the hull is in one piece, conclusively disproving the theory that a torpedo blew her in half, though there is some breakage of the hull amidships. Her massive pagoda bridge structure was found broken off and lying some distance away from the main wreck.
Update History
  • She was part of the original game's launch when the game was released on the 23rd of April 2013.
  • She got her Kai Ni on the 24th of October 2014.
Misc
  • Japan's first Super-Dreadnought and the first to be completely indigenous as opposed to the, at the time, British-designed Kongou-class battlecruisers.
  • Her Aviation Battleship remodel is based on a plan for the Fusou-class after the carrier losses at the Battle of Midway. However, it was executed on the Ise-class instead.
