I just got the boss into final form on hard mode, but up to now I haven't been able to land a kill on her even with support. I've only gotten her into the red. Here's the team I'm thinking of going with:

main fleet:

Kirishima (98) -  41cm(proto), 41cm, type 0 seaplane, AP shell

Haruna (89) -  35.6cm (proto), 41cm, type 0 seaplane, AP shell

Mutsu (67) - 381mm, 51cm, type 0 seaplane Ap shell

Hiei (82) - 35.6cm (proto), 41cm, type 0 seaplane, AP shell

Kai Ni Junyou and Ryuujou stocked with reppus and a saiun

escort

Jinstu (69) - 20.3cm (no. 2), Night Scout, Search Light

Choukai (72) - 20.3cm (no.2) x 2, night scout, type 21 Radar

Kitakami (83) - 20.3cm (no.2) x 2, kyohoteki

Ooi  (71)-  15.5cm type 3 x2, kyohoteki

Shigure (82) - Quint torpedo x 2, quad torpedo

Hatsushimo (75) - 12.7cm B, 10cm hi-angle +AFD, quad torp

I switched out Tone and Hiryuu for the CVLs and Kiso for Ooi in escort. Sounds like Ooi can make a big difference Are there any other improvements I can make before attempting the final run? I was thinking of switching Jinstuu for Yubari. I also have Kongou and Ise in reserve. I made a god awful mistake and advanced earlier that cost me my Sendai and my one star shell T-T. Although I do have Ayanami at lvl 52 I could try to power level if its a must. I'm down to about 17k on ammo so I can't do to do many more runs. I still need to farm for Roma and hopefully Ooyodo. Will this be possible without Heavy BB like Yama and Nagato class? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! CLEARED BOSS ON THE FIRST TRY!!! Went with Kaga and Tone instead of CVLs. Got AS. Support Shelling took out the 2 DDs and CLTs nearly took out the Ru. Managed to get to night battle with all escorts intact. Choukai finished off the CV-hime. Ooi and KTK combined for almost 400 damage to seal the deal.

Drops: My first Nagato!

I'm so happy right now! T-T
