General Guidelines

E3 is a multi-phase map consisting of two TP Phases followed by an unlock Phase finishing on a HP Phase. You cannot sortie any Flight-Deck equipped ship onto this map unless they have Arctic Gear & Deck Personnel equipped to them. 2 Bases of LBAS Support are available to you on this map.

Sandbox/E-3/Historical Ships

Phase 1: Clear the TP Gauge

After clearing TP Phases for several generations on E1 and E2, it is now up to your great-grandson to reach the Transport Node M and to defeat the Transport Boss at Q, which includes a rather troublesome Ne-Class Kai at up to 255 Armour. There are two Options to complete this Phase. Both of them go through Node J, which can spawn an enemy Torpedo Squadron in Vanguard Formation. There will also be a Submarine Node and Airstrike Node on the way. Depending on Strategy (A or S-Ranks) you might want to set up historical ships to deal with the Na-Class Kai at Q.

• Recommended Fleet: (0-1CVL 0-1AV 1-2CAV 4DD) + (1-2CA 1-2CL 3-4DD)
• Route: A-C-E-H-J-K-L-M-Q
• LBAS: Range 7 (Q), Range 7 (J), No Airpower on both Nodes
• Notes:
  • Concentrate your Transport Equipment on the Main Fleet as the Escort Fleet are the ones doing the most fighting
  • AACI to deal with the Airstrike is recommended
  • (O)ASW is optional, the subnode is not that threatening
  • There is no Airpower on the Boss, a single Seaplane-Fighter is sufficient to acquire AS
  • If Node J is troublesome, consider using one base of high accuracy Carrier Planes in LBAS to deal with them

• Recommended Fleet: (FBB 0-1CVL 1-2CA(V) 0-2CL 1-3DD) + (CL 0-1CLT 0-2CA(V) 3-4DD)
• Route: B-D-F-E-H-J-K-L-M-Q
• LBAS: Range 7 (Q), Range 7 (J), No Airpower on both Nodes
• Notes:
  • Concentrate your Transport Equipment on the Escort Fleet and Main fleet CL/DD as the Main Fleet are the ones doing the most fighting
  • AACI to deal with the Airstrike is recommended
  • (O)ASW is optional, the subnode is not that threatening
  • There is no Airpower on the Boss, a single Seaplane-Fighter is sufficient to acquire AS

Phase 2: Second Transport Phase

This Phase is largely a repeat of Phase 1 (including Fleet compositions), the Transport Node is found at U and the Transport Boss at Node X. The Transport Boss in this Phase is largely consisting of PT-Imps, so taking means to deal with them is highly recommended. In comparison to Phase 1 there is an additional Airstrike in Form of Node P. The Surface Task Force may opt to use a Fleet Carrier (CV) instead of a CVL in this Phase.

Phase 3: Unlock the Boss Node and Shortcut

To unlock the Boss Node, you need to obtain Air Superiority on LBAS Raid defence twice (on Hard). Set up your LBAS accordingly and sortie your fleet until you trigger the Raid.

To unlock the Shortcut from T->Z you need to do the following:

• S-Rank Node Q:
  • You are required to use a Transport Combined Fleet as outlined in Phase 1 for this step as a STF will no longer route there.
  • Replace Transport Equipment for Combat Equipment

• S-Rank Node D
  • Routes B-D. Use a Carrier Task Force and load up on ASW equipment

• S-Rank Node R
  • Routes R. Use a Surface Task Force and load up on ASW equipment

(optional) Phase 4: Debuff
