History fags, what are the good books on IJN vessels with plans, schemes and blueprints? I want to build some paper models to empower my faith in my girls, but I don't have blueprints for all ships. For example, the only Kagerou blueprint I have is for late war Yukikaze, with X turret removed and filled to the brim with AA, so I'd have to change things a lot and I want to stay as historically accurate as possible.

>>12259674

>──本家『艦隊これくしょん』ではどのような展開が待っているのでしょうか？ もちろんいろいろ準備しています！ 近いところだと夏のイベントが控えています。 こちらは「AL作戦 / MI作戦」と呼んでいますが、アリューシャン作戦及び、ミッドウェ ー作戦という2段階/2正面作戦をモチーフにした期間限定海域となっています。 新しい艦娘も複数登場します。 新しい戦略や戦い方、判断が要求されるシーンもあるかもしれません。 『艦これ』も少しずつ進化していきます。

AL/MI may be two worlds according to the devs. 50k resources for 2 worlds? I don't think so.

>>12259732
>http://dengekionline.com/elem/000/000/882/882130/

Let me rub this all over your face.

>>12259725
Of course.

>>12259725
I guess blasting over 140k ammo trying to get Musashi wasn't good now.

>>12259761
Still a month away.
They don't even sure when they should start the event themselves now.

>>12259731
I'd give her my stolen Jewish art if you know what I mean.

>>12259761
As long as you enter the event with 50k resources, you're fine. You can farm the rest during the event, and anyway, two worlds only means twice as many beginner maps.

>>12259766
And also double the medals.

>>12259725
I don't see how A1-3 and M1-3 is worse than E1-5.

>>12259766
>two worlds only means twice as many beginner maps
Or the difficulty could be progressively increasing, with the Aleutian maps being easier and the Midway maps being nightmarish. I doubt it's going to be as simple as two average event worlds happening at the same time.

>>12259725
Double the easy maps. Double the rewards.

>>12259770
>Only 2 rewards for clearing each world.
Need to save some ships as event maps drops you know.

>>12259772
Ships, sure. But medals, equipment and items should be raining down on every stage.

Might be a chance to get that second Shinden Kai.

>>12259725
That says that they are basing the event on 2 missions, not that there will be 2 levels

>>12259773
Maybe extra Marriage ring as one of Midway map reward.
Though the another question is, would they include another set of EO for each world or not.
That would push the total amount of maps for this events to 8-9 maps.

>>12259780
>Maybe extra Marriage ring
That's never going to happen.

>>12259783
And neither should it. At least make it something everyone would appreciate, like +10 slots, which will also never happen but is at least something monogamists could use.

>>12259786
Maybe extra 5 slots for anyone who can clear the last Midway map, though it also would never happen.

>>12259786
You can marry the same ship twice, monogamist scum!

>>12259806
No, I can't. I married my very first battleship, who saw me through all the way from 2-4 to the Fall event and the current maps. She led the fleet to battle thousands of times and single-handedly crafted my entire stock of battleship equipment. I laughed, cried and spent sleepless nights tackling event maps with her. Even if I got another copy of her to raise, it just wouldn't be the same.

What I want I want is an option to remarry and raise the cap from 150 to 200, so that I can keep my her in her flagship position for years to come. If Midway provides that, then yeah, I'd sure be down for it.

Looking at my drop log, from 5000+ girls I've got the rarest one, excluding event only/LSC ships, is Akatsuki with only 3 drops(one from all 30 craft, the other two from 1-1 sparkling). Makes me wonder how high the chances to get the common girl you want from all 30 are.

>>12259846
She's not common. She's first in line of her class with light blue background.

>>12259859
I wasn't talking about Akatsuki in that sentence though. Anything that can be got with all 30 is common for me.

>>12259846
Among the commons... Yayoi and Sazanami don't much much at all. Ooi drops more than Sazanami from my observation.

>>12259876

I may have only met 3 Sazanamis in my 3 months on the game and one of then is my starter.

Well fuck me sideways, I'm not going to eat for 3 days. It better be worth it.

I wish they'd introduce a lock for equip. Never scrapped anything accidentally but I'm always paranoid when it comes to the weekly equip scrapping. Especially when I have to scrap shit around sholo items.

>>12259939
didn't M talk about this back then?

>>12259939
My previous Junkers are right next to the garbage blues. That always worries me the most. Not that I ever get to use them because carriers are just fighter mules, but someday they'll get to see more action. Maybe.

I'm scared, is that comment a script?

He's probably just messing with you, then. He probably checked his feed and saw that you wrecked him.

>>12259952
Well, you can find an easy way to recognize it, but still, be careful while scrapping.

>>12259952

今夏実施の「艦これ」夏イベント期間限定海域は、【AL作戦 / MI作戦】を予定しています。本作戦は二段階&二正面作戦です。複数の航空母艦を基幹とした艦隊の充実や、同随伴艦戦力の整備等が攻略のポイントとなる予定です。同作戦開始は【8月上旬】を予定しています。

Well, I guess this confirms it.

>>12260132
>二段階&二正面作戦
Two event maps, and each map has bonus stage?

>>12260151
I have no clue what they mean with 二段階, but AL作戦 and MI作戦 being "split" makes sense.

>>12260155
Yeah, that part is confusing. Either the map has different level (you finish AL first, then you can unlock MI) or AL and MI map will have two stages (1 normal + 1 bonus). But considering AL and MI happened concurrently, I guess it's the latter, which is also the worst case.

What if we get 2 summer events?

>>12260132
I've heard that some "M" guy from 2ch said there gonna be 9 event maps few days ago. I guess we will have a E1-E4 and a E1-E5 if that is not fake.

>>12260167

I was thinking about 8 maps because of what >>12260151 said, but that sounds slightly more interesting.

It's over mate, it's damn over for me. If I wasn't tempted by that sweet honey trap of LSC. Now, I amounted to nothing with four digits resources left.

>>12260175
I am so glad I endured.

>>12260175
did you at least get something you were looking for?

>>12260226
None of it, a bunch useless monkey shits and Kusou Class.

This is for the Musashit attempt. From 270k+ to 4k.

>>12260230

We warned you, TTK.

>>12260233
Yes, we warned him.
Why didn't you listen?

>>12260175
How retarded are you? Anyone with half a brain wouldn't do a serious LSC attempt more than once a week at most.

>>12260175
Let me help you, m8

>>12260230
Enjoy watching us clearing the event in the corner. :^)

>>12260241
Something about stockpiling for weeks straight makes a TTK susceptible to easy temptations.

I think a bunch of TTKs are going to find they were played by the devs when the event arrives in a few weeks.

>>12260175
>four digits resources left.
I want to see it.

>>12260230

You still have some time left, TTK!

>>12260241
I did it everyday when I was chasing Yamato.
Took me like 6weeks and about 50 attempts.
Devkits is the hardest to recover if you are using 20.

I don't know what you guys are getting all worried about.

< This guy has it figured out.

>>12260259
I'm sure you were chasing Yamato while very close to a big event.

>>12260265
Natural regen was more than enough for Fall event, which is probably considered the hardest event to date. We had a whole month at that though, and Midway will probably be considerably harder than a bunch of night battle rng nodes... I'm stockpiling just to be safe.

>>12260265
>Wiki
>Wikifag

Get out.

>>12260175
Now is not the time for tears, Admiral, ships don't run on tears. You still have time.

>>12260265
He is right though
Ironbottom Sound - I didnt stockpile and went in blind
Arpeggio - Easier than 2-4
Spring - Hardest map is 5-2 tier

None of the event maps so far would required you to burn 100k in 24hours. If you are closed to lvl100, you would have 20k resources of natural regen, enough for the whole event duration imo.
At the moment right now, the hardest map is 5-5 and you wouldnt need 300k resources to beat it. Even 50k is an over estimation.

>>12260265
Beating an event map is easy, it usually costs less than 40k, but if you want to farm a rare ship from the event map, you need either pray to rngesus, or stockpile like an idiot.

>>12260276
>Spring - Hardest map is 5-2 tier
Say that to the admirals who burn 50k+ in e-5, then cockblock by battleship hime. heh

Which of the new kai ni remodels do you guys think will be most important for the upcoming event?

I'm trying to level as many ships as I can, but I'm interested to hear what everyone else is prioritizing their time.

>>12260285
I wonder how pokehamu will do this time around?

>>12260285
They only have themselves to blame using the kuso sisters. That node is basically like the G node in 5-2.
5-5 is way harder.

>>12260294
Because Nagatos or Yamatos could withstand a full hit from BB Hime

Oh wait, they couldn't. You're just a gigantic idiot.

>>12260286
Hiryuu Kai2, Tone and Chikuma Kai2, upcoming CV Kai2. I'm leveling Ayanami to make an elite DD fleet. And maybe Sendai for equipment and reserve since I already have Jintsuu.

>>12260294
No, Hime node is pretty much RNG. You pass or retreat, there's no other option. I'd say the minimum is 40k to clear it.

>>12260294
yeah I also think 5-5 is much harder than e-5. But the great wall of battleship containing the senkan hime in e-5 is nightmare to the lvl80+ admirals. And also the hime in boss node too. In that map alone 50k of my rsc had been wasted thanks to the hime.

>>12260294
>G node in 5-2
Which is essentially E node in 2-5, but you don't bring a single BB/CV and still breeze past it. Comparing it to E-5 is very unfair.

If Spring E-5 has Hime boss, then Summer E-5 would have an Elite or Gold SS Yo in LA for your CVs. Tanoshii yo.

>>12260321
you mean gold Re

>>12260286
None, you should only level the ships you like.

Material things like stats will never triumph over love.

>>12260305
You beat 2-5 with 2DD and 4medium size ships.
You beat E-5 with 4fatlard BB.
Unless you get green-T every round, getting pass that node isn't that hard.

>>12260331
It isn't hard, but it is RNG-dependent. You could pass it within a couple of tries or fail to do so for dozens.

It's pretty much Fall CA cut-ins all over again. No amount of equipment or preparation will help you, it's just a luck check and you go back if you fail it.

Always hilarious when retarded people that didn't bother with a map claim they did and then proceed to spout such obvious bullshit that it's apparant to everyone that they are lying about having tried.

Why does this thread get so many replies?

>>12260339
>fail to do so for dozens.
Chances of that happening is almost zero.
You need to have green-T everytime you hit that node.
She doesnt miss.
She 1shot crit you to red everytime.
You might as well go buy lottery.

>>12260344
Some retarded claim E-5 is easy like piece of cakelike like 2-5 and 5-2.

>>12260346
She can bring you to red even if red T.
Green T, are you fucking kidding me? That's like a death sentence.
She does like 30-40% of my runs.
She doesn't, sometimes she could just bring you down to orange

>>12260346
>You need to have green-T everytime you hit that node.
Wrong. Head-on, Parallel. Anything but Red-T basically guarantees that she can oneshot a ship, any ship, if she feels like it.

>She doesnt miss.
She has two attacks and even if she only sends you to orange, there are other enemies

>She 1shot crit you to red everytime.
Wrong again. People falsely believe only crits can insta-red a ship from full hp.

Look at how full of shit you are.

>>12260331
>>12260346
see >>12260340 and just shut up already.

>>12260357
Not the guy you're arguing with, but interested to know- what do you think causes a ship to get one shot to red? Just a flat % of the time death protect activates?

>>12259827
Fusoufag, is that you?

>>12260374
Hard to say. Could be an overflow in the damage calculation. Could be a trigger that could vary between classes in power that cuts damage. And about 50 other things. If you've ever looked into game design there are just to many things that could cause this that it's impossible to test.

Since Haruna and Kirishima took part of Midway, the easiest shortcut for the event would probably be consist of 2 Kongou and 4 CV as to 3 BB and 3 CV to Spring E-5's north route.

>>12260417
Maybe for an early map, but I'm tired of Kongou domination. The final map should take exactly four carriers, similar to 1-5, and the boss should be three carriers and an island.

>>12260357
And?
The chances of you going through that node is so much higher

>if she feels like it.
>only crits can insta-red
So is this crit or not crit now? Lets assume enemy has the same attack modifier as the player and lets cap it at 150. How do they blast any of your hotel or BB to red?

>Wrong again. People falsely believe only crits can insta-red a ship from full hp.
Anything higher than 40damge is considered a crit by the GUI and BB has enough armor to withstand a normal attack unless you get green-T.

The probability of you going through that node is much higher than retreating. I dont know what ships and formation you guys are running to consider the map hard. Most people beat it under 50k resources in like a few hours.
Just cause some guy has tons of problem beating in on a stream doesnt make the map hard.
Besides Green T only has 15% chance of happening.

Also it is just 1node and with 1problematic ship. Compare to fall where every node is a death node and every ship can kill you, it is child play. In 5-5, you have make to it through 3death node and the compass bullshit.

>>12260430
>The chances of you going through that node is so much higher

Not him, but I bet you didn't even clear E-5, moron.

>Also it is just 1node and with 1problematic ship.
Gold Ta in LA can give you problem too.

>>12260428
>should take exactly four carriers
>similar to 1-5
wot?

>>12260428
I believe AL is the early map, while Midway is the EO map. And without escort ships like BB, you're pretty much fucked with 4 CV alone.

>>12260430
Stop being retarded in public already. It's so obvious that you didn't even try the map that it hurts.

>So is this crit or not crit now?
You need to read better. And you need to replace some of your silly "I know it all in theory" attitude with actual experience.

>Anything higher than 40damge is considered a crit by the GUI
Your level of stupid is mindboggling. When we say crit when /mean/ a crit. A critical hit.
And again, you haven't tried the map. Just go home.

>The probability of you going through that node is much higher than retreating.
And said probability meant absolutely nothing before the overwhelming assholery of RNG which you'd know about if you weren't a newfag know-it-all moron.

>Most people beat it under 50k resources in like a few hours.
Except they didn't. Not even close. Are you constantly on crack or something?

>n 5-5, you have make to it through 3death node and the compass bullshit.
>3 death node
First node isn't difficult. Second node isn't difficult either. Pre-boss is equivalent to BB Hime node. Boss node is comparable too.

You are so wrong about everything there is no way someone this stupid actually exists. Nice trolling, 5/10, made me respond.

>>12260442
>Not him, but I bet you didn't even clear E-5, moron.
I did, but did you?
It is like 75% to boss everytime when I did it.
The problem with E-5 is the killing blow, not the middle node.

>>12260454
Show your HQ level. I bet you did it on easy modo.

>>12260454
Please, I can get someone to SS their sakawa for me too.

>>12260454
How can she still be level one...

>>12260454
I did, but some players like me had a hard time with that node. I couldn't bring the boss down in red T and parallel engagement, and yes my last kill took me 5-7 hours.

>>12260462
I know right? Mine is level 2.

There's no point in leveling her since she doesn't even give equipment.

>>12260467
At least send her on expeds instead of keeping as a hostage in the base.

>>12260460

>>12260473
You have this ridiculous "it was easy for me so it must be easy for everyone else" attitude. I took out Fall E4 with 12k/8k/12k resources and Kako as my damage dealer, and the killing blow came before the gauge was fully depleted. But you don't see me arguing that the map was actually easy and all these players who shed their blood, tears and resources over it were actually morons who didn't know what they were doing, do you? Because you know, that would be dumb.

>worst event reward ever
Alright, I don't really mind you arguing something silly, and I don't agree with the folks calling you out on not clearing the event or not having resources or whatever, but it is inexcusable to have a taste this poor.

Does anyone know if the US navy holds some sort of copy right over their warships or some way they could leagally cockblock dmm from adding US ships in the future?

>>12260691
People use American ships in movies, novels, and games all the time. Allied girls not being added is probably something to do with nationalism. Or they could be on the way. Who knows?

>>12260691
No, the US navy does not hold any rights over the use of its ships in fiction. They're a part of history, and you can't exactly claim ownership over history. That would be like making a territory claim on the sun.

Which incidentally someone did do. She then tried to tax everyone for using her sun.

>>12260698
probably nationalism. Also don't those game have the US navy seal of approval or some shit? I vaguely remember super battleship for the SNES having it.

>>12260702
Difference is that the sun is naturally produced. Navy made the ships, but you're probably right now that I think about it.

>>12260702
Doesn't the Navy have a potential case for trademark on the names of their ships?

It's not one that I'd imagine them trying to protect or enforce, but it may technically exist.

>>12260705
And even if they do, how are they going to enforce it? Sue them?

>>12260712
Is there anything stopping them from sueing DMM? I think international law would be in their favor if they actually had a trademark/copyright/whatever

>>12260712
>>12260716
More importantly, would the US Navy even care?

>>12260718
You underestimate America's ability to hate shit for arbitrary reasons.

>>12260716
I would imagine that plenty of published books had used US Navy ship name but I don't think they actually pay a royalty fee for it. In a way, I guess deep inside some obscure section of the law, the Navy do indeed have copyright over it but I doubt they would sue them. The US Navy have better things to do.

>>12260718
That's kind of my point. I doubt they care about some shitty browser game that glories its country navy.

>>12260718
There's always the chance of the Navy suddenly deciding to get into the field of moe browser games.

>>12260718
The military has been pretty vigorous about maintaining their trademarks after the wars in shitholedesertstan
The Marines especially.
Businesses like to maintain a positive image with war vets, but the use of marketing developed by the military would imply sponsorship or shit like that.
Instead, you get to buy a license to use it.

I'm not sure what their policy on ships are. Ships aren't trademarked from what I can tell.

>>12260712
Invasion.

>>12260689
>it was easy for me so it must be easy for everyone else
Did I said it was easy?
Does the previous event maps warrant all these paranoia and fear of hoarding resources in the 100k~ range to beat it?
No, the hardest map right now is 5-5. Go do that map over a 2week period and report back on your net spend resources. It is funny how people hoard resources, neglect their level and equipments and then complain when they get raped at event maps.
Unless the devs bring back compass trolling and HP regen most people will be fine.

>>12260734
You do not use 100k resources to clear the maps, you use it to farm.

>>12260731
We are talking about historical warships though. I would think it's kinda hard to enforce that of laws on them seeing how much media actually utilises it as well (I doubt they pay any royalty for it).

Man, I hope the devs start dropping hints soon on what ships will show up during this next event. Speculating over that gets me more excited than anything else.

>>12260766
Ambush. New support expedition will reduce the likelihood of enemy ambush. High LOS or scout plane equipped CV/CVL can help reduce that as well.

>>12260766
I doubt it, but they really have to improve the accuracy of CV's shelling phase and torp opening for elite or flagship mobs. They also should give DD some torp opening too, tomahawk version.

>>12260718
>>12260724
I don't think they would care all too much.
The US Military & Navy is quite keen on having their cool toys and battle ships depicted in movies and media as it makes the military/navy look cool.
Movies that have military equipment or actual battleships in them are usually using these things for free, they love anything that makes the pew pew look cool for kids and the public.

>>12260770
Sorry, let me get something more appropriate for Fleet Collector

>>12260766
All we have confirmed is proximity fuzes. Still rooting for Abyssal support shelling, ambush nodes where the enemy gets the first attack instead of you, torpedo nets that make ships untargetable by torpedoes and mine combat with light and heavy cruisers (so the 3-equipment thing for CLs becomes much more relevant, do you want to equip depth charges for ASW, scoutplanes for double attacks or mines and minesweeping nets for mine warfare?)

>>12260777
"Look cool" is a nice word for "propaganda". There's actually a sinister and cynical side to the USM's charitable front.

http://www.theguardian.com/film/2009/jul/06/us-military-hollywood

>>12260777
Only if they are cast in good light, I think. But that's for media with American consumption, no?

>>12260777
I don't know if they would consider making US ships into underage girls and big breasted bimbos who strip on the drop of a hat propaganda.

What kind of verbal tic would US destroyers have anyways?

>>12260800
Engrish and ね

>>12260795
Well it's obviously for propaganda purposes.

>>12260800
I don't know about verbal tics, but I really want to see William D. Porter in a HQ with the classroom furniture, repeatedly writing "I will not try to shoot the president" on the board.

>>12260807
She will be the Maruyu for the US navy.

>>12260800
AiAiSah!

I think people here are really thinking too hard into this, if USN really care MC Axis and it's published mook is already introuble with the navy. They have much more important things to take care of than some anthropomorphized cartoon girl. for some niche market.

2 luck stat with shit combat stats

>>12260813
Her sinking was amazing too. A kamikaze plane miraculously got under her before exploding, making her literally jump out of the water. Being a 2000-ton destroyer, she didn't take well to crashing back into the ocean, and eventually sunk.

So she'd probably be very easy to surprise, and if you sneaked up on her and touched her shoulder, she'd probably jump so high that she'd break through the ceiling.

>>12260807
>>12260823
Christ, her history is one giant farce. She's an archetype dojikko if I ever saw one.

>>12260838
The worse of Samidare and Mogami with the luck of Shinano and the combat powress of AkitsuMaru. At least her fuel cost would be low.

I wish JMSDF ships will be added and they wear delicious office-lady uniforms.

>>12260845
You must marry their predecessors and play an 'interactive night battle mini-game' in order to get them.

>>12260845
Yuudachi Kai 4 DD-103 where.

>>12260845
If that was the case then their equipment and stuff should be only available and locked to them. WW2 ships shouldn't be able to use them.

I guess, if they were to be added, their name will be listed in Kanji or Katakana to avoid confusion or rather in different font style.

>>12260838
http://www.cracked.com/article_19637_the-5-craziest-war-stories-all-happened-same-ship.html

That is both hilarious and scary as fuck that there was a ship that bad

>>12260871
I'd be skeptical of most of Cracked's articles, but thanks for sharing anyway.

And the ship itself wasn't bad, it's the inexperienced crew (or just plain bad luck) that caused everything.

>>12260871
And on the other side of competence you have Johnston, a destroyer that was personally saluted by the captain of the Yukikaze and given the 21-gun salute by Kongo, Yamato and Nagato, because she literally beat their asses.

>>12260906
Really interested about the 21-gun salute. I've read about the Yukikaze's captain saluting the Johnston in that battle, but never anything about the battleships. Do you have a link for that?

>>12260906
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Johnston_(DD-557)

Jesus Christ that was one hard working destroyer. If she was ever added she'd definitely get at least yuudachi kai 2 stats

Futaba has a Kancolle board now.

>>12260944
https://youtube.com/watch?v=PJppbfpHpeQ

And a video of the fight in question. Talk about lucky

I seriously can't believe people don't know about the Johnston, the destroyer that broke Kumano's bow. That ship tried to cross the T on Yahagi and co by herself still burning from getting shot by Kongou. The IJN got panicked and fired the torpedoes early and all of them missed.

One really great destroyer.

>>12260818
Her combat record was pretty good though.

>>12260860
JMSDF ships are in hiragana. Kanji is for IJN ships and katakana is for Arpeggio ships.

>>12260980
Most people here don't play Taffy's Collection

Do you think there is any chance they'll ever make a Kai 2 that requires more than level 80? Possibly excluding Yamato.

>>12260991
At the very least people should have an idea of battle of Samar. It's funny how people makes joke about the Marianas Turkey Shoot but have no idea about the fight with the Tin Can Sailors despite both operation is pretty much linked.

>>12260996
We are already very close to that line with 77. Some carriers needing some levels more wouldn't be unthinkable.

Problem is: they will.

>>12260751
It's 5-5 tier, actually.

The difference between 5-5 and E5 was not only the criteria to clear the map. It was that E5 rewards were a lot more worth it, giving the illusion that 5-5 is more difficult, because 5-5's rewards were not worth clearing the map for. I presume it's the damage cap, but whether the BB Hime crit my ships or not didn't matter. She could still bring their HP down to red even at red T; the only times I got past her were when she missed twice or only hit my ships to orange or less, so I had to count on that.

I cleared E5 anyway so all's well for me.

>>12261003
>Marianas Turkey Shoot
I actually haven't seen it mentioned here. When people mentioned about Philippine battles, it's mostly about Surigao Strait and maybe Halsey's bait battle.

>>12260980
That's because Samar is just all of Japan getting roasted by all of Taffy, nobody bothers to figure out who the individuals are.

Takao Kai Ni when?

>>12261027
2016

>>12261027
Next year.

>>12261021
Halsey bait battle is the Mariana Turkey Shoot, often associated with Zuikaku. I remembered seeing a posted image of her getting angry over turkey working at some fast food chain.

>>12261027
Whenever Mikoto Akemi gets back working on their designs I guess.

>>12261032
Welp, guess I brainfarted.

>>12261032
Isn't turkey a rare delicacy in Japan?

>>12261036
Because they don't have a turkey livestock to begin with.

>>12261036
As much as any other imported meat.

>>12261036
Not really. At least not in the Yamaguchi Prefecture, considering I've seen it used in local bakeries and whatnot.

Who are the ships do you want to level in PvP lately?

>>12261051
Z3, Bismarck, Nachi-san, the hungry wolf and twintail dragon,

Ayami, Sakawa, Akashi. I done with main force ships already

Do you guys consider Taihou as "loli"?

Wait what

>>12261073
Poor Napata, she can't get the sameface to go.

I still have time, r-right?

She's waiting in LSC, you know

>>12261376
After Midway, Musashi. Goddess Iona bless her followers after they show their valour.

>>12261347
No. Like Ryujo, Sakawa and Kitakami, she is an adult who happens to be not very well-endowed.

And that is a great body type, petite girls who are nonetheless mature adults are sorely underappreciated. I hope there will be a flat battleship in the future.

>>12261375
>Still no event date announcement.

Depend on how well prepared your fleet is.

>>12261376
She's been in my fleet for over 7 months,

>>12260980
> the destroyer that broke Kumano's bow.
I doubt people here know about Kumano's tenacious return to mainland after getting torpedo'ed in the first fucking minutes of battle, let alone who torpedo'ed her.

>>12261392
As a huge history fag I do know. And her wreck is in my country. I'm not sure if it's accessible though but considering the depth of where she sunk at her moorings, it should be easily accessible. Though I doubt there's anything worth to see since she capsized when she sunk. So it's probably only the bottom hull and her props can be seen.

>>12261398
> , it should be easily accessible.
I'll never understand this desire to desecrate graves a lot of people have.

>>12261406
You only desecrate it when you take something away from it especially without permission from the government that ship served under since even if it sunk in foreign waters, if I remember correctly, the government where the ship served still has the rights on it. Other than that you can dive on it to investigate, see the reason why she sunk, remember the people who lived and fought on it, snap some photos and leave, unlike others who salvages them without permission

What's more effective as extra equipment for a BBV, a surface radar or a floatplane bomber? I already have a main and secondary cannon equipped along with a recon floatplane.

>>12261417
> Other than that you can dive on it to investigate, see the reason why she sunk, remember the people who lived and fought on it, snap some photos and leave
I would never be happy if someone digs my grave and investigate my corpse only to remember me, taking some photos in process.

>>12261419
Why the secondary cannon?

>>12261419
No, you don't use yellow gun on a BBV. You either use 3 red, recon/2 red, AP, recon for damage, or 4 planes for ASW.

>>12261419
Maybe AP round to boost for their firepower.

>>12261422
You're implying said corpse is still there. Let's say that in this scenario, your corpse has long been eaten away by the ocean (which is what usually happens). If that were the case, how would visiting a shipwreck be any different from visiting a war memorial or former battlefield?

>>12261422
At least you were never forgotten. Either way, in a shipwreck, your corpse would've rotted away anyway.

>>12261430
> You're implying said corpse is still there.
But there is. Even destroyers are still 100 meter long giants, they are not eaten by ocean that easily.

>>12261437
Wait... You're saying the SHIP is your corpse? Are you a kanmusu?

>>12261471
No. Have you ever heard about analogy? It doesn't matter even a single bit if the corpse in question was once human or a ship, they are still corpses in the end. Desecrating them is equally bad.

>>12261473
Like I said, only when you take something away from it will it count as desecrating. Visiting it, taking a look around, snapping some photos is not desecrating. If it is then I don't know what visiting graveyards and memorials are for.

>>12261479
> If it is then I don't know what visiting graveyards and memorials are for.
I've never seen corpses with bared guts in graveyards. Digging them out of the earth, or diving to them in the sea, the difference is little to no.

>>12261481
>Digging them out of the earth
It means you've moved them out of their respective resting places.
>diving to them in the sea
Well, unless you decided to raise the ship and tow them back and salvage it for scrap, sure, you've probably desecrated it. But diving on them means you're only taking a look. Learn the goddamn difference.
And let's just get back to topic of kanmusus. This is pointless.

>>12261488
> But diving on them means you're only taking a look.
No, you retard. Digging a grave only to take a look at the guts of deceased is the same fucking thing. And that'd desecrating the dead.
> This is pointless.
No it's not. Someone is wrong in the internet, I must correct his mistakes!

>>12261490
They are ships, Jim, not living beings. This analogy ain't gonna work.

Do you see anything weird with this, /jp/?

>>12261528
Yes, and?

>>12261528
it was only on that fight?

>>12261528
I recall someone pulling off an Overheal on Hyuuga in the first days when Akashi came out. Do you remember how it happened?

>>12261534
Nope.

Back from the sortie, the bug appears to be there still.

>>12261536
No idea, unfortunately. I didn't notice it either, until I went for my first sortie of the day.

>>12261385
>>Event will last 1 month.
source on this?

>>12261669
Do you really think the biggest event in game so far, covers 2 operations, the one they have been hyping since last year, will only last 2 weeks or less?
Yeah I don't have source but anyone with common sense would guess it will last at least 3 weeks to 1 month.

>>12261697
How long did fall event last?

>>12261698
A month. Originally intended to last for two, but it got extended.

>>12261697
I really can't see them going past three weeks and that already was quite a stretch, but you never know.

>>12261697
There would be no point to. That would make it too easy.

>>12261698
20 days + extended a week

>>12261698
27 days.

>>12261703
>>12261708
>>12261709
I see.

I'm thinking Midway would last 3 weeks or so, but I'd rather wait till there's actual confirmation from the devs. Until then, I'd rather not make any assumptions.

>>12261707
>make it too easy
Guess what kind of people devs have to pander to if they want more people to play?

>>12261704
>>12261707
Since it covers 2 operations they could just pull something simple like, first 2 weeks for operation AL and last 2 weeks for operation MI

>>12261711
I'm thinking the same time as Fall event, with the extension optional if enough people fail to clear it.

But I'd like a month-long event with good farmable maps too.

>>12261719
Their current trend is making easy to clear but fucking obnoxious to farm maps

>>12261724
>obnoxious to farm maps
Maybe the random drop girls will be boring?

>>12261715
People who will pay money for last gap clearing?

>>12261727
All the new drop girls since spring event so far have been pretty boring.

>>12261717
I really don't think they'll make 4+ maps for the Aleutians, to be honest.

>>12261715
This event wasn't made to advertise like the Arpeggio one and I can't imagine there are that many potential players left. They're over 2 million, they should start focusing on the people they already have. And did you forget why LSC was added to the game? It was so everyone who failed to clear events could be strung along. When anybody can clear all the content with ease they get bored and stop playing.

>>12261731
You didn't like rapeboat?

>>12261733
Some leak guy from 2chan or whatever claimed the event will have 8-9 maps, if he is right then Aleutians may just have 3 maps, and the rest will be Midway.
And we don't know if the regen gauge will come back or not, since it would change alot of things.
>>12261738
Her rapesmile alone doesn't make her that memorable enough for me.

>>12261743
Open your heart a little bit, anon.

>>12261746
Since she refused to join my fleet so, maybe next time.

New admiral here, I'm 753 exp away from lvl 80 and only beaten 5-1. How badly are the other four maps going to rape me by?

>>12261780
>5-2
Pretty easy. Theoretically has a very good drop list, but all I get are Applebears and Akigumo.
>5-3
possibly a little faster but rage-inducing with a surface fleet. Slow and patience-trying with a sub fleet.
>5-4
Surprisingly, as easy or easier than 5-2.
>5-5
If you really, really need a medal...

>>12261780
5-2 is okay, not too easy, not too tough.
5-3 is a completely different story, and you are better just ignore it for now and focus more on event resources hoarding for event.
5-4 is another easy map, great for farming rare ships.
5-5 is the hardest map so far in game, if you don't count event maps

>>12261780
5-2 is ridiculously easy. Also, Taigei supposedly drops from the boss. I haven't seen her in over 200 successful kills, though.

>>12261780
5-2 and 5-4 are cake walks, but 5-3 is a pain if you don't have subs.

All my cvs are in the 60s. Should I bother grinding them or spam for reppus?

>>12261809
It's also a pain even with subs.
I just ditched subs and brute forced with surface fleet after spending like 2 weeks sub cheesing without any actual result.

>>12261817
Why not both.

>>12261808
That's because she apparently only drops from Southern war Demon formation.

I'm doing 5-5 right now and Re keeps aiming 3 attacks on the same ship. All the fucking time.

>>12261827
Welcome to 5-5, enjoy your stay.

>>12261827
Kaga? Or Taihou?

>>12261827
Who's the lucky girl?

>>12261830
Taihou.

>>12261832
Figured so, If it isn't Kaga, then it's Taihou. Re loves them.

>>12261838
This time now it was Kaga.

>>12261838
>>12261842
Consider the following:
Why not put them in flagship position and use diamond to protect her?

>>12261846
Can't put two ships in flagship position.

>>12261847
Yeah, I meant crit magnet Kaga.

>>12261846
Consider the following:
You probably want to go to night battle at boss node.

>>12261850
But consider the following:
You probably only need a lucky hit from your BB to kill Wo.

>>12261855
Normal Wo, maybe
Wo Kai? nope.

>>12261847
Just do what they did in strike witches and have Taihou ride on top of Kaga or something

>>12261842
And Taihou again. This time she was the only ship that took any damage.

>>12261873
Her luck isn't just for show, anon.

>>12261873
Did you sparkle your ships?

>>12261873
Just give her a break.

>>12261879

dec.2chan.net/60/futaba.htm

I just noticed and still not sure, but that Hiyou kai's damaged art have some barely visible tanlines on her behind?

This is what I'm talking about. Taihou still kept medium damage with 19HP left and Yamato cut-in blasted RE with 1 shot. But then I got sent to the deadend node, so nothing mattered.

>>12262051
I'd say it's just shading.

I am bored farming 2-1 and 2-2 all day errday. Anymore good map for dailes (CV and supply ships)?

>>12263246
5-4 is the best place to do dailies.

>>12263246
Wolfpack to 2-3.

Not yet?

>>12263255
You'll get to sink her in one month, please wait.

>>12263255
Why would I use inferior ships? Don't kid yourself, they will be Bismark-tier at best and far from being useful.

>>12263259
Bismarck tier in term of CV is like, CarDiv 5, so it's not too bad.
And Enterprise was better among CVs than Bismarck among BBs.

>>12263277
> it's not too bad.
With dragons K2 I'm never going to sortie cranes ever again.

Face it, the only good thing USN ships might bring is good radars, which can be equipped by anyone. Stat-wise they will be shit.

>>12263284
Would they make radars useful then?

>>12263288

With those stats they are useful eve now.

>>12263299
I'd like some of those abyss radars

>>12263299
>>12263303
>>12263304
I still have no idea why that gold Ru on 2-5 still can't hit the broad side of a ship with those radars they have. Will they introduce some sort of gimmick for radars next time?

>>12263299
I've never understood why their sonars are so strong when our subs are so weak defense wise compared to theirs.

>>12263313
Still adds more evidence that the Abyssals are the USN personified. They had good sonars coupled with good depth charges which made sinking IJN subs easy for them.

>>12263299
> Abyssal Anti-air Dispersal Shell
VT Fuse?

>>12263321
Probably not, VT fuzes are likely to get their own gimmick.

>>12263321
Nah, there's no AA stat on it. Probably just a counterpart to our own AP shell.

>>12263319
> the Abyssals are the USN personified.
That's obvious. 20mm, 40mm, 12,7mm as AA guns? What do you think, Sherlock, they might look like Oerlikon, Bofors and Browning.

>>12263322
Or, they could introduce a new gimmick using that.

>>12263330
There are still people who doesn't believe that Abyssals aren't the USN. One argument they have are the torpedoes on heavy cruisers, which the USN doesn't have on their CAs.

>>12263333
They are already some wacky shit going on with Abyssal torpedoes. I mean, they have torpedo that's better then everything player side has when historically USN torpedoes were shit with dud rates above 50% and IJN had motherfucking Long Lance.

>>12263333
I'm more partial to the ship girls being the left over emotions that filled the ships when they went down. The abyssal ones are the negative emotions, while our girls are the positive emotions.

>>12263338
Well if you already take a look at the Abyssal torpedo stat's, it already pales in comparison to our weakest torpedoes, which further reinforces the idea that the Abyssals are really the USN. But for those who say they aren't, they'd usually go for reasons like the USN never had any CLTs and like I said, USN CAs didn't have torpedoes.

>>12263333
Abyss also has CLT, unlike the USN.

>>12263346
I'm talking about equipment though, which is mostly based on USN armaments. Makes me wonder what friendly merchant of death supplies Abyssals if they are just possessed ghosts.

>>12263341
This. Everyone probably gets whatever sunk on their waters and wasn't converted into ship girls. So Japan gets an American abyss, America gets an American abyss, Europe is a mixed bag because everything sunk all over the place.

>>12262467
My moon is still pretty limited, does that mean that next maintenance is on the 18th, then on the 28th when Haruna is finally daijoubu and after that, the next maintenance will mark the beginning of the event? Or the event is beginning on the 28th as well?

Do people still believe Konishi will be doing Haruna Kai 2?

>>12263406
Of course.

>>12263403
The former one.
>期間限定海域投入前の【7/28(月曜日)】
>投入前

SOON.

>>12263410
Yeah, that was my suspicion. But it's weird because they don't usually put a normal maintenance on Monday.

>>12263435
On 24 July 1945, the U.S. Navy's Task Force 38 began a series of aerial attacks on Kure Naval Base to destroy the last remnants of Japan's navy. The same day, the battleship Hyūga was sunk,[37] and Haruna was hit by a single bomb which caused light damage.[38] Four days later, she sustained eight bomb hits from Task Force 38's aircraft and sank at her moorings at 16:15.[37]

They choose the right timing for that.

>>12263440
Shit. I hope she's still daijoubu. Finally a kai2 I'll be able to get as soon as they release it.

>>12263442
She is, anon. She is.

On scale from 1-10, how daijobu will Haruna kai 2 be?

I wanna hate money to have the extra docks and space, but I don't have any to hate after the TI4 craze.

>>12263474
Konishi/10.

3rd month in a row clearing 5-5 with 3 subs. 16 tries and lots of frustration were involved, I won't recommend it unless you have resources and time to spare.
