I'd be happy then rage if they dissapear after the event.

>>12250007
I've scrapped 13 of those girls.

Still no good bauxite expedition
Album 4 rapidly filling up with Kai Ni
Torpedo queens nerfed so badly and undercut by seaplanes they're worthless now
DEVS WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU

>>12250275

Expedition 6 and 11, unless you're lacking taihou, trying to get good planes, or using retarded setups on your CVs, your bauxite should be increasing slowly but steadily.

CLTs were overpowered anyways, and they're still useful, I never used them too much though.

The album thing only means we will getting more girls soon.

>>12250275
>Still no good bauxite expedition
Exp6
>Album 4 rapidly filling up with Kai Ni
It's not like we get surprise kai2s often so it's your fault for sitting on that massive pile of resources.
>Torpedo queens nerfed so badly and undercut by seaplanes they're worthless now
They're not worthless.

>>12250275
They want equal loves for all shipgirls. Deal with it kuso

>>12250286
>>12250283
>Exp6
I know this exists, I want the bauxite equivalent of 37 and 38 where I can set them off and forget about them for a couple of hours.

I want to see some new faces dammit, not redraws of old ones.

>They're not worthless.
Yes they are, they hardly deal any damage even of both teams are in line ahead and green T.

>>12250275

Exp 6, 11, and 35 are good enough for bauxite farming, but I really wish there will be more with short duration. Also those days when CLTs were relevant are over, just accept it.

I just wish they would give those Kai 2 to ships that aren't pretty much garbage in non-kai2 form
Ayanami, RJ, Myoukous, Hiryuu, Sendais

seriously, none of those are any useful before they get to their Kai 2 state.
Ayanami is a subpar DD. RJ is one of the worst CVL. Myoukous are subpar CA. Sendais are subpar CL. Hiryuu was the second worst CV.

I appreciate the whole "Make useless ships not useless" sentiment, it's getting a bit much with leveling all those dumb ships that you normally would never use.

>>12250302
>they hardly deal any damage
Are we really talking about KTKM and Ooi?

>>12250304
They seem to have a basis for giving ships their Kai2s. It's from their service records, actual refits, popularity with the players or any of the combination above. Though it's really more on their brilliant service record and/or actual refits.

>>12250304

If you don't like them, just don't do it.

I really don't like ayanami, so I just bring her every now and then to my pvp matches, but I don't actively level her, and after her kai ni, I probably won't use her anyways.

And fuck you, RJ is cute and useful.

>>12250313
Did you get Ayanami and RJ backwards in this post? Otherwise you're right.

>>12250310
So far Naka is the only one got Kai2 just by her sheer popularity alone.
Doesn't help it's one of the worst Kai2 update ever.

>>12250317

No.

>>12250309
Yes. They've been performing terribly badly.
I took them to PVP because I haven't been for a long time. They might as well have not participated in the battle: the initial torpedo strike did jack shit.

So I thought, well maybe that's just the RNG. So I took them to 2-5 to clear the monthly. They were useful against the mooks, but they missed the torpedo against the 3 battleships at the boss node. I had a favourable position and everything, why did they miss?
In the end I dealt with 2-5 with Tone and Chikuma, and Yuubari.

>>12250320
Oh, it's a case of shit taste then.

>>12250313
RJ isn't useful
Every other CVL but Houshou does what she does but better. And cuteness won't let you clear maps. Not to mention that cuteness is subjective and I find RJ disgusting.

And if they didn't stuff Kai2s full of otherwise unobtainable equipment, I wouldn't bother. Worse yet, some of those garbage ships become top of their class after the kai 2, making it a bad decision to not get them there so you can use them.

Only inefficient scrubs do the whole 'use ships you like' thing.
I only like ships that are useful.

>>12250313
>RJ is cute and useful.
Cute... maybe.
Useful... Ha, ha, ha.

>>12250322
You're probably doing something wrong. And don't judge by few sorties.

>>12250324
>Only inefficient scrubs do the whole 'use ships you like' thing.
Shitty opinion here too.

>>12250331
A shitty scrub claims I have a shitty opinion.

The irony is so thick I can slice it and put it on bread.

The amount of kuso here is unbelievable.

>>12250322
I've noticed this too.

In the past, CLTs could sparkle themselves from any sortie.

These days they're rarely in sparkle condition, because the torpedoes are hardly effective anymore.

>>12250324
>I only like ships that are useful.
Useful for what? Wasting your time in a shitty grinding game?

>>12250324
And stats won't matter much once RNG decides to screw you over. Seriously why can't you people just leave other to their own devices? If someone wants to keep ships that he/she like then why do you even care?

>>12250334
"Superiority" complex?

>>12250337
>kuso
Stop confusing your imaginary tryhard faggotry with actually enjoying the game.

>>12250361

I was talking about that imaginary tryhard faggotry.

It seems it's bad to enjoy things.

>>12250361
Is "using ships you like" tryhard faggotry because it's a challenge, or "using the only best ships" tryhard faggotry because it's... faggotry?

>>12250372
>it's a challenge
You do it for love.

>>12250376
Love has walled me out of 5-5.

>>12250286
I'd still like to see an expedition that has decent time/returns ratio for bauxite that doesn't force me to switch back every 40 minutes.

I don't have Taihou and every PVP forces me to bring out the big planes (because my opponent are assholes) so I don't gain much baux at all.

>>12250302
I've had KTKM and Ooi Kai (not Kai-ni. Too lazy to level them the extra 5 levels), take maxed modernized Nagato and Yamato class to 1 HP from full health.

>>12250386
That's impossible because opponents are always nerfed a star. That said, I wonder how it's decided which stats they take away from?

>>12250388
They've displayed 5* for the longest time now. I was slightly scared when that happened because I liked the 1* nerf, still not sure if it's really 5* now though.

>>12250386
At least do it for the quint torps.

>>12250385
But you dont need planes to beat CV

>>12250385
2 CV packed with all fighter pilots, and heavily armed BB's should get you a S rank.

>>12250430
You need planes when every PVP opponent lists married battleships and 2 CV, or you'll get the shit beaten out of you with daytime double attacks.

Because nobody does that "leave one ship in fleet overnight" thing anymore even though I do.

>>12250441
I S rank all my PVP with my 3stars Sendai, Ayanami and Myouko.
gitgud

>>12250441
I'd rather field CLT rather than CV.
Less bauxite cost, 90% A or S Rank.

>>12250459
Bet you ten bucks this can't win against a fully outfitted battleship team and CVs.

Anyone else find themselves preferring another starter ship than the one they picked?

I picked Murakumo, but somehow I ended up liking Sazanami more. I think it's because Sazanami's charm is hard to see at first.

>>12250573
I prefer Samidare, but I picked Fubuki because rarity and all.

>>12250573
I still like Murakumo best.

>>12250573
I didn't know anyone liked Sazanami.

I can't use her because every time I switch her in I can only think "Akebono, but dere."

>>12250585
For any given ship, there's always some anon who likes her, no matter how unlikeable she might seem to you.

As I said, her charm is hard to see at first. Her art isn't very good, and her voice can come off as squeaky and annoying. But once you get used to that, she has this irresistible sweetness to her. I also like that she calls you goshujinsama. Even though there's very little context and it could be seen as pandering, it makes her the only ship I know of who calls you something else than teitoku or shireikan, which makes me feel like she desires an unique kind of relationship with you.

>>12250275
>Torpedo queens nerfed so badly and undercut by seaplanes they're worthless now
They are still useful is areas where CV support is limited for non-existent like PvP.

Has anyone here got his two 8 tube torps? They're so painful to get, fuck.

>>12250623
Yes.

>>12250573
I picked Inazuma as she is the only loli starter but I ended up liking Samidare more.

>>12250623
Yes, what's your excuse for not having them yet?

>>12250846
No whale after 300+ 5-2 runs

>>12250007
I only keep the ones I like, scrap the rest.

>>12250932

>>12250946

If he doesn't go retard and starts crrafting fr pecific ships, he'll be ok. When a BB fleet taxess ou hard is when you have to do lots of sorties to clear a map and frankly, any map until 2-4 can be cleared in 2 or 3 sorties if he brings that fleet.

>>12250957
I'm on 2-4, though, and I can't past it.

Well, I did mention until 2-4 for 2-4 you'd need to Kai the BBs or at least fully modernize then on their first form.

This game really gets on my nerves, like the annoying voices and the terrible characters designs and the lack of gameplay. Why do I keep playing it?

Are those Abyssal Fleet people playable yet?

Anime Yamato is here!

Is sex all you think about?

>>12251176
>delicious shaped pads.
Fixed.
I thought they would show Kongou first since is more popular than Yamato, but then again Yamato always ends up as prime promotional material.
Poor Nagato though.

>>12251028
Umm, sure.

No because the game is shit and we only discuss the erotic doujins.

Kuso class second remodels when? They gave Jintsu second remodel just for a suicide, Kusos' suicides were quite grand as well.

>>12251211
Didn't they already get a fantasy remodel, I doubt they'd get more anytime soon.

>>12251211
That wasn't suicide, that was the real horror of a red T

>>12251246

Invisible Red T given the murricans just had to watch then through their radars.

>>12251246
There is now way Nishimura could push trough Surigao, red T or not. It was a suicide.

>>12251182
I feel bad for Nagato. She's the better known ship during her days, but people nowadays tend to go "muh Yamatoe" day in and day out...

>>12251181
Yuri is all I think about.
If by "all" you mean 95%

>>12251320
The power of promotions.

>>12251320
Yamato is heavily romanticized in fiction.
Also remember, operation tengo with Yamato is considered their last stand against the invading white gaijins.
Nagato didnt have any of this, she was handed over to the gaijins to do test.

>>12251385
Nagato was neglected by Japan. They treated her like shit in a way.

I'm here to torp your CVL into red again and again!

>>12251531

When did you get your first SS?

>>12251550
What does it matter? This game is RNG.

>>12251540
The devs just want to be historical accuracy sometime.

Whoever advised me to play WitPAE, fuck you. Nevermind that the game is brutally unwieldy and managing supplies and factories drives me nuts, when my yasen squadrons can't even identify what they sank is complete bullshit. They reported Enterprise destroyed 4 times already, but turns out they sank Lexington, Wasp, Yorktown and Hornet instead. Is it that much to ask to properly identify targets, or just report that they sank flattop instead of fucking Enterprise which is on repairs for at least half a year more after Pear Harbor.

>>12251572
Be happy they didn't mistake Akagi for Enterprise.

>>12251572
>>12251582
Kinda accurate when it comes to not taking down Enterprise.

>>12251320
>>12251385
Not to mention that linguistically, Yamato had more of a pull than Nagato. Her name does refer to ancient Japan, Japan itself and also the Japanese in general.

I keep going into yasen with musashi flag just to hear that mocking laugh of hers

I think I need help

>>12251659
Don't worry, you won't hear it anymore after you Kai her.

I really miss the old battle UI.

>>12250007

So how big of a let down do you think Haruna's Kai-ni will be, art wise?
From a scale of RJ kai art, to Haruna wa daijoubu, to Sendai tier.
Stat wise is irrelevant.

>>12252088
I don't mind the art too much but I'm not expecting alot from Konishi, it will not be Bob-tier.

>>12252108
But Konishi is better than bob

>>12252108
>it will not be Bob-tier.
As in better than Bob?

>>12252111
>>12252113
Perhaps. I'm only basing in terms of the art released thus far in kancolle. I maybe wrong.

>>12252108
I meant in terms of disappointment to acceptance.
When pepople saw RJ Kai's new art, they were offput by it.
Haruna wa daijoubu status is "Ok I guess".
Sendai class generally have a good reception on their Kai-ni's.

>>12252115
If you meant by improvements then yes it won't be Bob-tier.
If it was by general art, I'd rather have an all Konishi game than an all Bob game so no, Bob is not better.

>>12252115
I personally like Konishi's art more than bobs and actually like the Kongou Kai2s.

The recent bob kai2s were okay but Sendai and Tone were definitely some great stuff above the rest of his designs.

>>12252120
>When pepople saw RJ Kai's new art
One thing I learned from playing this game is that one grows used to the art eventually. Then again, I'm a pleb when it comes to character design.

What happened to leaving one or two high level girls out for pvp?

Gotta love when this happnes

>>12252248
Nothing happened.

The devs said multiple aircraft carriers + escort ships will be needed. What classes do you think they meant by escort ships? DDs and CLs for ASW? CAVs for scouting?

Also, does anyone have that portrait collage of ships that participated in the battle of Midway?

>>12252530
Don't get fooled, it'll be the usual BB for the last map. And you'll probably need DDs for a gimmicky map.

>>12252530
Fast BB probably. Maybe we get slow ship bullying again.

>>12252612
>Kinugasa wasting luck

I guess I'm a dry well of luck right now.

>>12252626
What are the odds that he's reached 5-4 without unlocking 4th fleet before?

>>12252626
Rare drops mean they only drop in few places, it doesn't mean they are hard to get.

Am I ready yet

>>12252639
Sure, frankly 9 of a combination of Reppu/Reppu Kai/Shiden K2 is enough.

That and 50k starting resources and at least three trained carriers. CVLs and CAVs might do something since it's the aviation event in addition to being Midway, but their role will probably be outside the complete dick ass maps, so they won't matter much.

Will all the ships eventually get KaiNi?

Or do ships have to have a certain "thing" for them to be considered.

>>12252718

So far the important factors are popularity and/or achievements in life.

So I doubt we'll ever get Shirayuki Kai Ni or Sazanami Kai Ni ;_;

>>12252736
Surely Fubuki will get kai ni.

>>12252747
I don't know who that is.

>>12252736
Usually it's the Kai Ni that makes ships popular, not the other way around. I feel like the dev priority list is something like gameplay balance > historical relevance > completing a class > what the fans think.

>>12252756

It's the Kai Ni based on achievements which makes a ship popular later. That's why Jintsuu got a bit more popular, for example

>>12252763
>Kai Ni based on achievements
If Jintsuu got it, Akatsuki should also get that.

>>12252784

I must say that Jintsuu had a more active role than Akatsuki during the war.

Is the Main + Main + Sea Plane set up recommended for Fast BB or do you guys have another setup?

>>12252842
46 46 plane sanshiki, so radar doesn't fuck up daytime DA.

Shouldn't the slow CVLs be strongest?

>>12252906
No. When you're deploying CVL you're usually not going to be packing them with all reppu (if air superiority is so tough you may as well use CVs for the extra planes). As such, you usually put your green in the largest slot and dive/torpedo bombers on the others. Chitose/Chiyoda Kai and RJ Kai (since it wouldn't be fair to compare a Kai to a Kai II), while having a smaller plane total, possess larger single slots (a 24-plane slot to Hiyou and Junyou's 18-plane slot), which gives your fighter more mileage. The other slots aren't as important, as carrier in the shelling phase is not dependent on number of planes as long as there is at least one surviving. In

That and there are a lot of maps that limit the use of slow carriers, removing the point of using CVL in the first place.

>>12252906
Chi sisters have the best stats among CVLs, but the Hiyou sisters can carry more planes.

>>12252931
That's not much for being slow. But then again it's not like fast fleet matters really often.

>>12252969
Meant to quote >>12252954's
>but the Hiyou sisters can carry more planes.

>>12252974
Well, the Hiyou sisters are pretty good for support shelling. RJ is a good third member for that job.

>>12252853
But a radar has no influence on daytime DA.

1-5 is good for farming for subs? y/n?

If n, which is?

>>12253189
It is, but your level would need to be fairly high to get stuff.

>>12253189

Perfect.
Please give it to me

>>12253337
>150 bauxite per hour
Never gonna happen

100 bauxite per hour or 80 per hour would be realistic. Would take 3 1/2 hours. 10 canisters necessary on 5 ships. needs 2 CL, 1 CVL + 3 others
needs combined level of 300 and a flag of 70
0-1 bucket on normal success and 1 guaranteed small furniture box on great success

>>12253337
>150 bauxite per hour

Can Yuubari get 5 slots as well?

>>12253431
Wow, that is a really old interview, and lots of the content they mentioned just came out at the spring event.

That only means he wasn't bluffing and we can expect what he said to happen sooner or later.

So yes, those Wosayers should suck a dick about not getting Yamato kai2 with 5th slot already... Midway is happening, the Tones got kai2, foreign ships are here for pete's sake.

After LSC went easy on me for Yamato, Bismarck and Taihou it feels like Musashi will be elusive.

At least this lets me go full autism again. The last month I did shit all since I didn't have the motivation to grind. Now there's at least some motivation.
I need to properly calculate the gains of expeditions and rate of devkits and maybe switch to ex8 or 20 for devkits.

Back in the day, 6-5-7-2 got me Yamato so I'll stay with it for Musashi.

Please like and subscrive.

> I didn't have the motivation to grind
You don't need motivation to stockpile. Don't tell me that you needed motivation just to Orel cruise? That's just pathetic.

>>12253459
I was sitting at max res, max buckets and like 1900 devkits with enough planes, radars, snshiki, AP ammo, 46cm for Midway, most Kai 2's excluding some retard ships and all the ships I love are level 99
I did a bunch of 5-4 runs a day for the transport daily and 10 kills daily but that was where I stopped. I barely had the motivation to do the 10 expedition daily.

>>12253447
Most likely Yamato kai 2 gonna be a blueprint kai 2, assuming you got every single medal from EO and event, and have all the blueprint kai 2 already, you still need 3 more medals to be ready.

>>12253473
Already got that covered.
Not pictured: Unremodelled Taigei doing her subexpedition.
I only need to clear 5-5 this month and 1-5/2-5 next month to get one more blueprint.

What do we know about upcoming updates? AL/MI event sometime summer, Haruna K2 this month, one of Hiryuu's associates getting a K2

Do we know anything specific about which associate?

17 stored medals here
Not a single blueprint remodel in the game that is absolutely necessary and only two that are worth it, which are Tone and Chikuma

>>12253494
Aryan waifu is worth it.

>>12253533
The few measly stats? Not worth it.

>>12253548
Only chumps who can't clear 5-5 and have less blueprints/medals complain about what's worth and what's not.

>>12253561
Ima chump. I don't have enough Reppus and too piss poor to do 5-5.

>>12253060
Yes it has. If you equip radar, you get either DA or CVut-in

>>12253609

I suggest you re-read the combat section of the wiki before spouting out nonsense.

Yeah, ignore that, I just woke up. I certainly remember BB cut-ins with radar though. Whatever, I'll test again.

>>12253561
Joke is on you, cleared 5-5 and still don't give enough of a shit to use my medals. Who knows what other use / other blueprint required Kai 2 they introduce.

Why are all the cons in the US always half full of asians?

>>12254014
Because those cons are on the west coast.

Midwest cons are all full of cracker amerifats hooked on the next shonen jump etc. craze, with a higher black ratio the further north you go. It's really disgusting.

>>12254028
Sorry, I'm behind the times. That should be Homestuck and Attack on Titan they're all awfully cosplaying now.

>>12254028

What about cons on the east coast?

>>12254032

>Attack on Titan.

Why people like this overdramaticized piece of shit?

>>12254028
So only the bottom rung of whites in the US become weebs?

That's might, not will. Fine difference.

>>12254043
People like drama.

>>12254039
I've only been to one con on the east coast and it wasn't a large one. It was in DC, so again it was a sea of white hicks. The infrastructure was decent though, so it wasn't a total loss in terms of type B franchises.

>>12254045
I wouldn't say bottom rung so much as that there are "Japan loveeeerrrr <3333 XD" types from all strata of society on this day and age--instead, the staleness of con demographics comes from the staleness of the sociocultural makeup of the land surrounding the con, and that influences what kinds of "Japanese" shit people even hear about by word of mouth.

better view of the posters

>>12253993
I don't like her. It was just hyped so fucking much and then it became only merchandise with no anime.

>>12254053

They may as well watch a mexican soap opera. Theose are shit but not on the level of AoT.

>>12254074
To add to this: We have a large Japanese supermarket in a suburb of Chicago. It has to close its doors every single fucking December 7th because of the horrible shit that people have walked in and done just because it's the anniversary of an event I'm sure you ttks know by heart.

>>12254081
That Mutsu looks like my mom

>>12254074

2hu switched the attention of the cancerous weeb from whatever was being shoved to their mouth from the editorials to memetic lines and fads on the internet. In a sense, it's an improvement because you don't see Naruto and Bleach exclusively on cons, and you can, every 20 or so cosplays, watch something from an anime airing in japan or original cosplays. The bad thing, at least from my point of view, is that all those retarded memwtic lines turn away any fan from actually getting the point of something. See 2hu again

65 or 70 for Ashigara and Nachi? I've had them sitting at 65 for a while, but I'm really considering getting them to 70 with Myoukou.

>>12253797

Both. You can blame a lot of different things for it like Hollywood, but the biggest offenders IMO are teachers who put up with retarded America-centric history curriculums and don't care enough to explain things like Pearl Harbor. The one fucking chance we have at suppressing bigotry at the roots, and we blow it because public education is about leeching off governments instead of helping future generations.

>>12254197
I could go on ALL day about how Pearl Harbor should have never existed, and even beyond that, but alas, this isn't the place for it.

Stupid old boys club syndrome. Read the summaries/excerpts from the biographies of the retired military personnel. Internal politics in the echelons of the ijn were hilarious with blatant favoritism and delusional decision-making in the midst of an ongoing(and losing) war

Her face is so flat. So flat. Also all these action poses are hard to stomach with their legs splayed out everywhere so that the shading hits them weird.

I highly doubt things like that were an IJN specific problem.

>>12254615
> Internal politics in the echelons of the ijn were hilarious
Not IJN alone. A lot of Navy and Army high personnel hated guts of each other too, to the point where development of RADARs and other extremely valuable tools of war were kept secret from other party till the end, forcing research bureaus to pretty much work twice on the same fucking thing. Fighting over supplies, sabotaging(!) their "opponent"'s production lines to make a point, this was far from uncommon.

>>12254621
Too slutty for me.

>>12254632
But submarines don't wear much more than that.

>>12254634
It's Japanese heritage, school swimsuit. I wouldn't want anything else for subs.
This on the other hand is just a slutty swimsuit.

>>12254640
It's a German sub, and there are no "school-swimsuits" in Germany.

>>12254631
Death penalty is too lenient for them... It's too bad that the dimwits don't get mocked and peed on for their pettiness in life.

>>12254640
So it's ok to be a slut as long as it is heritage?

>>12254621
You missed this.

>>12254643
Yes, but they can choose a less fancy one.
>>12254645
But half of the subs wear something over their swimsuits.

>>12254649
I would do my dailies with her if you know what I mean.

>>12254651
That swimsuit reflects the hull of the U-boat.

Had anyone doubted about that? I don't think so.

Well, the point is that interviews should be taken with a grain of salt. They are known to publish misleading (if not wrong) information.
Only fools will believe that something will be implemented just because the producer said so.

>>12254760
Should be the same thing if you go full subs though.

>>12254760

I did until the last kill with 3 CA, 1CL and 2DD.

Once I saw 2 Tas there wreccking the shit out of me and the sub trolling me, I said fck this and went with this comp.

>>12254760
I tried clearing 5-3 for my sister after she experienced hell with it. It wasn't easy; the flagship BB's double attack kept critting her ships whether it was me or her trying without an all-sub fleet. More difficult than when it was me trying to clear 5-3 before the flag BBs got their double attacks, that's for sure.

I still don't get what's happening here.

Admiral praises Akebono for getting MVP, offers her a tasty meal.

>>12254931
Oh, I thought he did something to her and she started apologizing.

>>12254931

Nah, that's too dere for her. She's distraught at the admiral's reaction.

>>12254931
Yeah, I thought the same. Bills in manga usually imply unwholesome things.

>>12255013
There were plans to follow filthy americans after the loss of carriers and sink them at night. It was a sure way to actually make Midway pyrrhic victory for IJN, but it never happened for some bizarre reason.

>>12255017
Unless CVs learn to night battle at Midway I certainly don't want to see this happen. Historical accuracy can be damned because the whole game is already inaccurate anyway.

>>12255013
>>12255006
They'll include a new gimmick. A cloud over your flagship and second ship.
Accuracy of the enemy fleet will be lower when aiming at these two spots, and evasion will be increased. However, expect 20-30 airplanes from the enemy in opening phase, and about 5-10 per airstrike in the shelling phase. Not to mention a battleship or two with 3 46cms.

What composition did you use to get mutsuki-class 1-5 quest sorted? With the 4 mutsuki, I went south on the preboss node 15 times in row.

>>12254631

Blame for Midway is shared between a large part of the IJN's senior staff.

Yamamoto is to blame for birthing the operation in the first place, and threating the General Staff in Tokyo with his resignation if they didn't OK it. He also proceeded to "game" the wargames for the operation aboard Yamato, with his referees bringing back sunken Japanese ships and stepping in when something went wrong for the Japanese force.

GHQ is to blame for not firing Yamamoto or allowing him to resign, and instead allowed him to throw away two thirds of what was then the most powerful carrier fleet in the world, for a tiny island that they likely couldn't capture and hold.

The other senior officers who commanded the forces allotted to Midway, and all of whom never directly questioned the wargames on Yamato or changed their plans while at sea and out from being directly under Yamamoto's eye.

All in all, Midway was nothing more than a waste of ships and planes for Japan, and the operation itself should never have happened. If anybody wants to learn more about it, especially from the Japanese perspective, Shattered Sword is about the best book on the subject.

>>12255075
The quest asks you bring 4 mutsuki, and you have to bring 4 of them. One of the requirement to have a chance to reach boss node is having only 4 ships in your fleet. Otherwise you will just get directed to end nodes.
They also mentioned you can reach boss node by bringing 6 ships, and losing 2 at the pre boss node, do you want to test this method instead?

Did someone say RNG?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9LzqbIkKtE

>>12255081
No. Never lost a ship and I never will

>>12255076
It's just my RNG luck then. lvl104 and no Zuihou after 500+ 4-2 S-rank. 10+ beaver, Mutsu, Kinu, but no Zuihoe.

>>12255091
Just keep throwing shit at RNG, eventually something will stick. I just got four, fucking four consecutive boss runs at World 2 before I completed the 3 transport ship daily.

>>12255103

>>12255151
He was. To the point that he was prone to throwing tantrums and threatening his superiors at the General Headquarters with his resignation if he didn't get his way. This sort of thing has been common knowledge in Japan for a long time, but a lot of western works up until the '90s still based themselves off of sources written immediately postwar, like Fuchida's book, which have been proven false by military and state documents and ships logbooks.

Yamamoto was not the one wise man in a crowd of idiots and drones like most Americans think he was. He was human, and made just as many mistakes as the officers around him. His mistakes were merely hidden better by history.

>>12255150

This makes me wonder, how the fuck japs managed to do this much with such retarded high command?

>>12255150
My second page.

>>12255221
A lot high commands in WW2 had... well, issues.

Hell, the main reason for Italy performing so bad (despite having decent soldiers and neat planes) was that the high officers were composed by at least a 99% of inbred cretins.

>>12255221
>"Retarded"
Because everyone was equally "retarded." The UK and US had their carriers, but the pervading opinion still followed mahanian doctrine and an emphasis on battlewagons, same as the nips. France, the first nation with an "aircraft carrier" (closer to a seaplane tender), the Kriegsmarine and Italy all didn't even come close in terms of naval aviation. Much of the battle of the mediterranean and the baltic was still primarily fought with battlewagons and subs.

Japan also started the war with its own technological advantages--it had a fairly seasoned bench of pilots thanks to skirmishes with the Soviets and Chinese (yes, the Chinese did have an airforce, plus a lot of "volunteers" from the US and USSR). The Zero, while overrated, was still an incredibly nimble plane in spite of its weak arms and armor. Japanese planes and Torpedos in general had a huge range (allowing them to take the Prince of Wales by surprise). They did reasonably well because, for all their failures and mistakes, they were still less mistaken than the rest of the world at the beginning of the war.

>>12255238
> The Zero, while overrated, was still an incredibly nimble plane in spite of its weak arms and armor.
It was also very fuel efficient and had an extremely huge operation range(for a carrier aircraft) because of it. It's not overrated that much.

Well that's an interesting idle fleet.
