Historical: Battle of the Sunda Strait
Shiplock: (Shiplock #4)

  • POSSIBLE HISTORICAL WARNING: BATTLE OF SUNDA STRAIT (Fleet with Kamikaze, Mutsuki and Fubuki sisters) FOR ALL THE COMPS BELOW !!
  • Part 1: TP Gauge
    • TCF 2CA(V) 4DD + 1CL 2CA(V) 3DD going KLMNP
      • TP Phase, bring many DLC as much as possible
      • LBAS: 4 LBAA sent to boss both bases
  • Part 2: Debuffing
    • Chip the boss HP Bar down to final form: STF 2CL 3CA(V) 1CVL + 1CL 1CA 1CLT 3DD going FGJMNRS
      • Must be done first !! As debuff only works in the Final Form !!
      • 85 air power recommended. Consider having one ship in the escort equipped with full OASW to deal with the submarine on the way
      • Other comps in Part 3 can also be used here, although this one is the most optimal comp. Watch out of shiplocks though.
    • A+ rank node P twice: TCF 2CA(V) 4DD + 1CL 2CA(V) 3DD going KLMNP
    • S rank node E: CTF 2CVL 1CL 3CA(V) + 1CL 2CA(V) 3DD going ACE
      • 230 air power recommended
    • Perfect airbase defence and score AS
      • Abyssal sky fortresses warning, requires rocket-launcher interceptors from last events (600+ air with 2 RL Interceptors should be enough)
  • Part 3: Finishing off the boss
    • STF 2CL 3CA(V) 1CVL + 1CL 1CA(V) 1CLT 3DD
    • STF 1CL 4CA(V) 1CVL + 1CL 1CA(V) 1CLT 3DD
    • STF 1CL 4CA(V) 1CVL + 1CL 2CA(V) 1CLT 2DD
      • Routes FGJMNRS
      • Even with debuff activated, it's still highly recommended to use boss support and historical ships to increase damage as much as possible. In the Final Form, boss gets much higher armor. You may need to engage the night battle to settle with her
      • As a result, this is a good time to consider some ships with TCI
      • 280 air power recommended (AS+ possible), around 160 is enough for AS only
    • LBAS: 4 LBAA sent to boss both bases

Totaku's Proposal

Preperation

For this map, you will be utilizing ships from the battle of Sunda for this map. Which will consist of a large group of ships. Most which are not all relavent to the Solomon Sea Operations. And can be safely used here. Although some of them you may want to carefully weigh in upon before sending them to this map. In addition to this, you will be using all 3 combined fleets to complete the task this map will challenge you with.

In addition to this, you can also take advantage of special routing on this map to possibly save on using some Heavy Cruisers in favor of bring a FBB and a 2nd CVL if you consider using Akashi or Akitsushima. Below are the following questions you need to consider before partaking in the map:

  • Do you have or wish to use Akitsushima or Akashi on this map to take a shorter path?
  • Do you have any Fast Battleships you can consider using on this map that are not the Kongou-class?
  • Do you plan to use Ryuujou (if you have her) or conserve her for a later map?
    • If you choose to conserve, do you have another CVL to use in her place?
  • Do you still have a sizeable amount of CAs remaing in your fleet? (Approximately 8-10 or more)
  • DO you have some Saiuns or Rocket Interceptors to help you get an AS in the Land Base Air Raid Defense.

If you agreed to the first option, you can consider taking advantage of a route and a way conserve your CAs torward the EO segment of the event. If you have other fast Battleships besides the Kongous, consider using one of them to save the Kongous for the Solomon campaign. If you have a CVL you can use in place of Ryuujou, consider them to conserve for a possible historical ship for EOs. Otherwise, if you really need her then consider use her for here.

Finally, if you have a lower amount of CAs than what is listed, you may want to consider weighing your options carefully as you may be forced to lower the difficulty at some point due to the lack of ships you may have to EO and more importantly the possible chance that you may lack in historical ships for certain EO segments. Plan carefully then and decide when it is a good time to drop in difficulty.

Historical Bonus

Within this operation, many ships associated with the battle of the Sudan Strait will be vital torwards completing this operation. But at the same time many of these ships are also relavent to the Solomon Campaign, while it'll be safe to select some, be careful how many you bring in as they may be relavent to the EOs. Below are the known bonuses that exist on this map:

1.1x Bonus

1.2x Bonus

1.2 x Bonus for P and S node (after clearing first gauge)

Out of all the ships present with historical buff, the safest ones you can consider for E-4 include Murakumo, Mogami, Mikuma , Shikinami, Natori, Fumizuki, Satsuki, and Asakaze as they have no connction to the Solomons after this map. However you can add in some of the other ships mentioned above in the list as needed or use alternative just keep in mind that you need to plan carefully who to bring to prevent dropping in difficulty.

Step 1: Successfully Complete the Transport Operation

The first phase will consist of a transport Operation which you'll need to deplete the transport gauge to complete said operation. You will be using a Transport Combined Fleet to complete the Objective. For this comp, you will be using a majority of CA(V)/ CLs and DDs. This composition can be summarized in one single comp.

Fleet Recommendation

Transport Combined Fleet: 1 CAV, 1CL/CA(V), 4 DD + 1 CL, 3-4 DD, 1-2 CA(V)

Path:K-L-M-N-P

  • Depending on how willing you are to conserve heavy cruisers, you can opt for replacing planned CA with a CL for the main fleet
  • Depending on how willing you are to conserve heavy cruisers, you can opt for replacing planned CA with a DD for the Escort fleet.
  • Main Fleet should be armed with as many drums and Daihatsu as possble while maintaing a suitable LOS.
  • You will encounter 1 Sub Fleet and 2 Surface Battles.
  • It's recommended to have 1-2 OASW ships in your escort fleet.
  • Surface fleets will consists of CAs, CLs and DDs. On higher difficulties, they can pose a threat with stronger ships along with thier torpedos.
  • Node M contain a very strong fleet in higher difficulties which you may need the assistance of an Land Base Air Squadron or even in-route support to help pass this node.

Most of the battles should be easy to clear if you remember all the mentioned info above. Outside of Node M which may require additional help the rest of the path should be easy.

Recommended LBAS

  • LBAS 1: 4 Land Base Bombers
  • LBAS 2: 4 Land Base Bombers
    • Can consider using them to target both Node P or one on Node M and one on Node P

The Boss will consist of a Heavy Cruiser Ne-class Kai along with CLs and DDs. Any Land Base Air Squadron sent there can help wipe out most of the enemy ships here to help you secure an A rank at the very least. The rest should be achiveable through your ships and depending on how much transport equips you bring can help you clear the Transport phase more quickly. Remember that you will only need an A Rank at minimum to depelete the TP gauge. Once the TP gauge is depleted, this part of the operation will be complete. And the path for the Batativa Princess.

Step 2: Battle the Batavia Princess till the final kill

Step 3: Complete the Debuff Process

Once the Batavia Princess is down to her final kill phase you can complete the a debuffing phase which will further buff your fleet and weaken the Princess further making it easier to defeat her. To complete this step you will need to complete a series of steps depending on the difficuly listed below.

  • Hard: Score 2 A+ Ranks in Node P, Score an S Rank on Node E, score AS in a Land Base Air Raid Defense.
  • Medium: Score an A+ Ranks in Node P, Score an S Rank on Node E, score AS in a Land Base Air Raid Defense.
  • Easy: Score an A+ Ranks in Node P
  • Casual: Score an A+ Ranks in Node P (required confirmation}

Depending on the difficulty, you will likely need to complete te these step to get the Debuff to make the princess weaker. At lower difficulties, you can possibly skip the debuff step entirely and just kill the princess from the final step.

Once the debuff is complete all ships will get a 1.1x additional buff if they attack the Batavia Princess .

Step 3a: Return with a Transport Combined Fleet Heavy Cruiser Ne-Class Kai (Node P) for an A rank

Step 3b: Defeat the Carrier fleet (Node E) with a Carrier Task Force

Step 3c: Successfully Protect your Landbase during an enemy Air Raid (Achive AS)

Recommended LBAS

  • LBAS 1: 2-4 Interceptorts, 1-2 Rocket Interceptors or 1 Saiun
  • LBAS 2: 2-4 Interceptorts, 1-2 Rocket Interceptors or 1 Saiun
  • For maximum air defense against high-altitude bombers, you'll need 3 rocket interceptors
  • For medium and hard mode only

This step can be done at any time during or after Steps 3a and 3b. To be able to get AS you will need most of the stronger incerceptors or well modified interceptors in your land base and if you obtained rocket interceptors from the last event, you can use those to improve your AA vs. the Abyssal Sky Fortresses to make AA more achiveable. You should only need 1-2 minimum.

If for some reason you do not have your rocket interceptors, you can resort to Saiuns to help edge your land base's AA performance torwards reaching AS. Although on hard mode, the only way to achive AS if you lack in rocket interceptors is to hope you can reach 512+ Air power and replay the map until you roll the 3 Airfeild Princess composition on hard to see if you can get AS, it's also important to remember your air power will be cut in half without rocket interceptors. So if you for some reasons cannot achive 512 Air power, you will need to consider dropping in difficulty unless you want to gamble on trying to defeat the Batavia Princess without debuffing her which is not recommended

On Medium difficulty, AS should be achiveable with all interceptors / fighters in your land base with at least 188 Air power.

Step 4: Finish the Batavia Princess
