don't do many construction in early games, since it would hurt you resources pretty bad, especially when you trying to construct heavy ships... and don't bother with construction if you can get them via drop, unless you're desperated

I mean, Kongou-class FBB are pretty common drop in 3-2-A, so rather than waste your resource for construct them, why not use that to unlock 3-2 and get them there. As an addtion, you'll get to level your ships too along the way
