It is kinda the same thing here, although I have every single CA(V), (f)BB(V), CV(B/L) and every other Kai Ni ship at level 99. (Full list at my profile page) =P The majority of them rarely get to sortie anymore. I only use my Kongous, Unryuus, Myoukous, and Mogamis for my daily 5-4 grinds. Akagi and Kaga had been sitting in my base for months before this E-4.. In the end, I even cleared that map without them. At least I'm quite prepared for the ship lock mechanisms every event and future ship upgrades. :)

On the other hand, it would be pretty harsh for newer and less fortunate players to not be able to sortie the "required" ships.
