Ship lock is not exactly a guarenteed thing, but what was mentioned in the tweet is definitely a hint, yes. Not worried personally, it is for events like this that I have 64 high level sortie ships of all kinds ready. Only thing I'm lacking is high level AV and a Taigei (my Taigei is a Ryuuhou), but eh, aside from Taigei I can grind the AV during the event if need be.

Judging by the tweet though, a huge fleet is only required for Medium and Hard. If there is a ship lock, it is very possible it won't apply for Easy difficulty. I wonder, how would they implement the ship lock in that case though - do you make the difficulty choice for the whole event in the beginning before you play any map, or can you choose the difficulty individually for each map, with ship locks not being effective on the easy difficulty maps?
