Missed out a few threads for a while and I don't know if my questions have been answered or anything but here goes.

Subs are good, they don't get hit by a lot of stuff and they look pretty. I tried putting one in my main fleet and her torpedos are way weaker than Kitakami (well, duh) as in waaay weaker, she barely dents anything on the first torpedo shot. Are these subs useful other than farming fuel off 2-3? Maybe putting in turbines to let her tank enemy CLs and DDs but with the armor of BBs, Heavy Cruisers and CVs, I don't think enemy DDs or CLs can even dent them hard enough.

Yuudachi Kai 2, wiki says she can outgun Heavy Cruisers but she can only equip the 12.7cm Twin Kai guns at best and they just have like +2 firepower and +4 AA, how can she outgun those?
I was thinking of just using her as a dodge tank but Shimakaze/Yukikaze does that better. Yuudachi is supposed to have the highest firepower of DDs but I think I'll just stick to other ship classes if we're talking about firepower.

Anyway, I've been using :
Imuya
2x 61cm 4something torpedos

Yuudachi Kai2
12.7cm kai 2 red gun
10cm green gun
+10 dodge turbine

Kongou
46cm
3x 41cm

Mutsu
46cm
2x 41cm
AP ammo

Kitakami
Midget Sub
ASW+4 charge

Akagi
2x Blue rare plane
Blue Holo plane
15.5cm yellow gun

Trying to clear 4-3 but I think I lack firepower or something since I get battered up when I get to the last node (or the compass girls keep throwing me all over the place).

Shit, I've been wondering the same thing. I'm leveling a few DDs (Isuzu, Yuudachi, Hibiki, Shigure) and wondering if it's even worth it.

You must be 122.54.244.196 on the Wikia. Wikia just states she has the potential, not that she will outgun CAs. Her raw firepower at 73 is still decent enough to bring down DDs, CLs and even other CAs. Another thing to note is her torpedoes do considerable damage as well.

Half the things you're flying are already Japanese "wonder weapons". The carrier-based Shiden Kai never existed, both the Type 91 and Sanshiki special ammunition never worked as designed, eight Reppus were produced and never saw combat, and the Seirans were all dumped into the ocean after their first and only mission was aborted due to wars' end. The rest of the wonder weapons Japan was trying to experiment with were mostly nuclear, biological, and chemical. Which is obviously just not happening.

As for actual Wunderwaffe, the only one I can see possibly making it into this game would be a carrier-based version of the Messerschmitt Me 262. The rest of their weapons were all land-based.

All the major powers were working on developing guided missiles up until the war ended, but I don't think any really made it into combat use other than the V-2.

I'm actually more interested in the carrier-based rocket launcher system that I can't find anything about (the 12 cm 30 barrel rocket launcher that the seaplanes and cranes drop on final remodel) other than the fact that they were used. There don't seem to be any reports about their combat effectiveness by either Japanese or Americans, even though they were mounted on most of Japan's remaining warships in 1944.

An unguided rocket is essentially a shell that can go higher, so it can't be completely worthless. I think I read that the primary reason the 12.7cm and 25mm AA guns that were the IJN's standard anti-aircraft weapons were ineffective was because attack aircraft were able to attack largely from out of range (決めたいわね!), which is why operation Ten-Go failed so badly.

>>11559487
Mostly because there was nothing else to defend against besides submarines. Everything in the IJN was completely bombed out by the end of the war by pure air power. As General Marshall said when planning the invasion of Kyushu: "Our estimates are that our air action will have smashed practically every industrial target worth hitting in Japan . . . The Japanese Navy, if any still exists, will be completely powerless."

IJN Full Strength for the Invasion of Kyushu -

19 destroyers, including Ushio, Hibiki, and Yukikaze, the only surviving ships of the Fubuki, Akatsuki, and Kagerou classes. The rest were either obsolete or the newer Akizuki, Matsu, and Tachibana replacement classes commissioned during the war. No Mutsuki-class, Hatsuhara-class, Shiratsuyu-class, Asashio-class, Shimakaze-class, and Yugumo-class destroyers survived. The IJN estimated that it could had fuel to field them for a few days, but it was not expected to matter as they were all expected to be lost while attempting to sink landing transports.

38 remaining IJN submarines, armed with Kaiten manned torpedoes.
1300 midget submarines, armed with either two torpedoes or a suicide charge.
3300 Shinyo suicide boats.
4000 Fukuryu suicide divers with naval mines.
7000 IJN aircraft converted for Kamikaze use, to be launched from land-based airfields under the command of the Army.
1 battleship, 4 cruisers, and 6 aircraft carriers which could not be deployed for lack of fuel.

Neat, someone voiced the male characters. The volume is tiny in this version though.

There's also the fact that the Downfall planners envisioned about 1,000 B-29s (and much, much more escort fighters of late-model P-51s and P-47s) to be available for the operation. And likely to be flown by all available crews, some of them fresh off Europe.

Considering the Japanese already have trouble intercepting B-29 raids, the number of bombers being planned is going to make it worse.

To add, one of the reasons the Japanese backed down is because of the Soviets, who is probably much more happy to flood millions of Russians fueled by Stalinroids into Japan. The only thing stopping the Russians is the lack of a way to send those numbers over the seas.

Useless effortpost incoming. I'm attempting to deduce which battleships getting the upgrade next update. Ise-class and Nagato-class are possible, but not the focus of the evidence I'm piling up here, while keeping score. Here goes.

The photo of the silhouette >>11559317 for the next battleship is an extra that comes with an Aoshima WRX. Said Subaru has itasha that includes Kongou on it (she's more popular and appears more marketable). Kongou-class 1, Fusou-class 0. (The actual shapes in the silhouette are debatable; people will see shit they want to see, completely differently.)

There is empty space in the game's shipcyclopedia for a two-ship class, right in between numbers 141 and 144. Moreover, this space belongs in a row that contains only second-stage refits (Isuzu Kai 2, Yuudachi Kai 2, Shigure Kai 2), which this update is slated to be. Kongou-class 1, Fusou-class 1.

However, there is also space between 136 and 141 for a new four-ship class. This makes less sense, because 20% of this page is Yamato, and 40% of this page is destroyers. Kongou-class 2, Fusou-class 1.

Fusou and Yamashiro are the only battleships in the game right now that start out with silver rarity and only upgrade to gold. All other battleships either start out gold already or fuck, even RAINBOW colorrrrrr. It follows then that for game balance (or historical accuracy for those theoretical seaplane decks) purposes, they'd get a new upgrade. Kongou-class 2, Fusou-class 2.

From Twitter: the class has been mentioned as "sisters", though not every time. Fusou and Yamashiro's lines are far FAR more sis-con than the Kongou sisters, with the exception of Hiei who only manages a one-sided relationship with onee-sama. That's good for at least 0.5 point. Kongou-class 2, Fusou-class 3.

Shit, I think there might have been one more thing I forgot, but I'll have to remember it later. Anyways, the impression I'm getting is that you guys ought to level your horrible unlucky BBs for this.

If it's any comfort to you, I doubt that either of those classes are going to end up more powerful than Nagato or Mutsu after this update.

The part where Goya spends two hours in the bath. She's incredibly fragile right after remodeling but by the time she hits 60 things are better than ever. I don't know why that is since I immediately maxed her stats and threw two +10 turbines on her but it's like the RNG had it out for me because suddenly she was eating hits. It's nothing a bucket can't fix and if you keep her as the flagship you don't have to worry about sinking but it took away some major advantages and forced me to abandon 2-3 farming for a while. Now that both subs are remodeled I can take Goya through as the flagship and they mop the place up.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong then. Level 60 on both and fully remodeled. On the rare occasion they hit with their cut-ins they still don't do much damage. And this is with 2 quads.

There is no formation select when you have 3 or less in your sortie fleet. My imuyas (90 and 60) do quite alot with cutins even with turbine and quads. Perhaps underleveled? And you sure torp stat is maxed?

That's Saiun, scouting plane that reduces your chances of having your T crossed.

I don't really think it's worth using, since the crossed T modifiers apply to both sides. On anything but boss maps, you're actually better off having your T crossed, since it means you'll take less damage too.

In the last formation, pretty much just your battleships and aircraft attacks will do anything worthwhile. Don't expect to rout them consistently, it's more about avoiding as much damage as possible.

>> No.11563815

>>11563787
Yes. Fleet composition affects the kind of support attack they do. 3+ CV/CVLs = air bombing. 2+ torpedo cruisers = long range torpedoes. Anything else = cannon fire. Cannon fire and torpedo support consumes 4 battles worth of fuel/ammo. Air bombing costs less fuel/ammo but alot of bauxite.
Support fleets return immediately when you return from any world 5 sortie.
A fully sparkling support fleet has a higher chance to appear.

>> No.11563834

>>11563815
I see, and is there any consensus on which formations give the best results? I've seen posts saying both air bombing and cannon fire are good. That said, how necessary are these expeditions to beat the map?

Also, is expedition 33 for the normal nodes and 34 for boss nodes? For all world 5 maps.

Sorry for all the questions, I only just unlocked 5-1 recently. Trying to comb through the japanese wikis as well for information on this since the english one doesn't (afaik) have any info. Thanks for the help!

>> No.11563861

>>11563834
I think the results is mixed in terms of cannon/air support, since the results varies based on luck/ships stats/etc. Generally, the bigger the ships the better they'd do, but the costs also goes up drastically since they'll return with nearly depleted fuel and ammo regardless of whether they showed up or not.
It's commonly known that torpedoes are useless as they are extremely inaccurate.

Personally, difficulty wise 5-1/5-2 doesn't feel drastically tougher than 3-3/4-4. It's entirely possible to get through them without support fleet, but calling them in does dramatically improve your chance of succeeding, if you're willing to pay a second/third fleet's worth of fuel and ammo.

What I mean is a sort of overall performance increase. You'd expect a character's level to do that in most RPGs but the only apparent things that levels increase that modernization can't max out are evasion, ASW and LOS. So techincally you'd have a fully modernized but lowbie ship to perform mostly similarly to a high level ship at least offensively. But some people claim that level themselves are also a sort of stat in itself improving your overall damage, crit and hit chances, damage avoidance and such.

I always thought that the purpose of 2-3 sub runs was to collect resources and that they were incapable of killing much. Well, thanks, I'll look into it when I have more than a few subs. Too bad I only have one Goya which I need healthy to do 3-2 steel runs with.

Either sub runs in 2-3, or 2-2 with 1 CVL 1 BB and a team of DD/CL that are around lvl 50. cheap on resources so I can break even/net gain. I don't even put planes on my CVL to save some bauxite, she's just there for the better chance at getting boss node.

Is repairing 8 damage twice less costly than repairing 16 damage?

also how do you farm specifically steel? I got every other resource under control except that which went from my most abundant resource to barely managing to scrape enough to repair my girls.

>> No.11564338

>>11564326
Let the resources regenerate and take a break from sortie and crafting. If you need exp, do practice matches or grind 1-1. And I've grown to the point where I wait my ships to be the in the yellow in order to repair them because they take too long to repair already.

It's not mutually exclusive you know. You can grind and grab steel at the same time if you refresh after hitting the steel node. I guess it's all up to you whether you want to do it though. Me, I see that DMMM doesn't care enough to do anything and the effects on the server are negligible so I consider it to be worth it over being horribly inefficient doing 3-2 sub runs.

If you lurked here for more than just 1 day, you would've known 3-2 was a place to grind ahips with a steel node as bonus. Everything is forced to hit your sub so it is obviously your shield. then you want something to lighten the load before shelling phase aka a CV. also something to take out stragglers aka a BB. then you have 3 slots to level whatever the fuck you want. it's really not that hard.

This fucking stage 2-4 is pissing me off so badly now.

If I were to solo this stage with a sub (I only have I-168 for now), at what level and what equipment should I be using?

Also, is it even worth to modernize her before lvl 50? Lvl 50 seems like so damn far away....

>> No.11564500

No, it's not worth it. Soloing it with a sub requires way more luck than clearing it with an actual fleet that can do damage.

>> No.11564507

>>11564500
It does have the advantage of letting you just keep running it over and over again quickly though. Eating a couple of lucky crits on your main fleet means hours of downtime and expensive repairs. Eating a crit with a solo sub means only 1/2 hour to 1 hour cheap repairs.
