− | Transport Operations are an event mechanic that was introduced during the [[Fall 2015 Event]]. Unlike the usual map clearing mechanic, completing a Transport Operation doesn't require you to kill the boss.
| + | The objective of the Transport Operation is to deplete a '''Transport (TP)''' gauge/bar. |

| + | The TP Gauge is depleted each time the fleet reaches a '''"Transport Loadout Node"''' (a node marked with a green flag) and then scores an '''A+ rank''' at the boss, with S ranks depleting more points than A ranks. |
− | * The objective of the Transport Operation is to deplete a '''Transport (TP)''' gauge.
| + | * Ships that are {{color|red|'''heavily damaged (大破)'''}}, [[Evacuation|evacuated]], or sunk, are not counted towards gauge depletion. |
− | ** The amount of TP that needs to be depleted varies by difficulty.
| + | The boss does not need to be sunk at any point. |
− | * The TP Gauge is depleted everytime the fleet reaches a '''Transport Drop Off''' point (a node marked with a green flag) then scores at least an '''A rank''' victory at the boss.
| + | * Sinking it may be advisable to get S ranks and so deplete the gauge faster. |
− | ** Ship girls that are <span style="color:red;">'''heavily damaged (大破)'''</span>, evacuated using the [[Fleet Command Facility]] or sunk are not counted towards gauge depletion. | + | * In the eventuality there is no boss node after the TP node, then just reaching the node is enough, counting as an S rank all the time. |
− | * You do not need to sink the boss on the final run to clear the gauge.
| + | Those phases are usually completed by a single fleet or a "[[Combined_Fleet#Combined Fleet Types|Transport Escort Force]]" (TCF). |
