Tips

Regarding Land-Based Air Squadrons

  • You are permitted to use 1 LBAS.
  • Upon completing the quest B175, you will gain access to an LBAS, which is highly recommended to help simplify the battle on the boss node for this map.
  • It's recommended to bring Land-Based Bombers, Fighters, and ASW planes in it if you want to increase your effectiveness on the Boss.
  • The LBAS range needed to reach the boss is 2, and the other nodes range is equal or higher.
    • Bring planes with a distance of 2 or more in order for this to support an attack on the boss node.
  • This map can also serve as a good location to train your Land-Based attack planes to max expertise. Bring only Land-Based Attackers with a distance of 3 or 7 (or more) as they will reach enough distance to reach submarine Nodes on B, C, J, and K, where your planes should target in order to be trained.

Recommended Fleets

This guide will go over the events of this map from the sequential order when you obtain Quest B175. Since this a normal map, you do not necessarily have complete things in the order mentioned, but to make things most convenient for you, it's recommended to at least complete B175 to access the LBAS.

Traveling to Kaohsuing (For Quest B175)

  • Composition: 1-6 SS(V)
  • Route = C D F J K M O
  • The LOS Range needed is estimated to be 30 Cn3
  • Submarines will face little to no threats along the way. At most they will take 2 loses and 3 wins.
  • Using Seaplanes or Submarine Radars 
     
     
    to have enough LOS and so route from M to O.
  • Once your submarine fleet reaches O you will gain   and  
    • For more information please review the farming guide further below.

Sink the Hi Convoy Princess

In this sequence, it's recommended to have cleared B175 before hand to make this section of the map easier as the assistance of an LBAS will help give you the necessary edge needed to fight against the boss in this map. While the boss is not strong, the fleet she is accompanied with may present issues if you cannot wipe out her ships that assist her.

Below is a guide on the recommended compositions that will work effectively against the boss.

  • Composition: 0-1BBV, 1CVL, 1CA/CL, 2-3 DD, 1-2 DE
  • Route: A B E J L P

  • Composition : 1CT, 1DD, 3DE
  • Route: A B E J P

Resources and LBAS Farming

It is possible to farm both Fuel and Bauxite by reaching node .

  • Base amount of resources are 40 fuel and 20 bauxites without the uses of Daihatsus and Drum Canisters
  • Composition: 1-6 SS(V)
  • Route = C D F J K M O
    • LoS required: ≥ 32 F33 Cn3

Doing this farming will bring you a lot of "loses", which can impact your overall win rate and so your "event eligibility".
