I don't understand it. No matter what I do, I can't finish LD on E-4E. I'm using STF with boss support expedition, and my LBAS is three >> Reppuus with a Saiun for the 6 range needed, I get AS+, my support does 200-400 damage and kills threeish trash enemies, but the main fleet just can't bring it home.

Everything Kai unless otherwise noted, levels are generally 60 to 70.

Nagato 2x 41cm, Type 0 seaplane, AP shell, Ise 2x35.6cm Zuiun AP shell, Mogami and Suzuya full of Zuiuns, Hiyou and Shouhou with just enough fighter coverage to guarantee AS+ on last node, one Saiun on Shouhou's 6 slot to prevent red-T, and everything else is my best bombers.

Escort fleet is Jintsuu Kai Ni with 2x torps and searchlight for increased nighttime TCI chance, Kongou and Haruna with 2x35.6cms, type 0 seaplane, and AP shell, Atago with 20.3cm, red 15.5cm, type 0 and radar, and finally Poi Kai Ni and Ooshio Kai Ni with 3x torps.

Support Expedition is Kongou-class and Mutsu with 3x 41cms and 1x radar, Kaga and Junyou full of my highest firepower bombers, generally Tenzan or Suisei, and Fubuki and Shimakaze for DDs. My two Ryuusei and one Suisei 12A ride on my main fleet.

I reach boss node 99% of the time without taking more than scratch damage, but always leave the boss as the last one standing with orange health after night battle. After running out of resources (again) and going back into resocolle and training mode I've pushed Fubuki to Kai Ni and am pushing Haruna to Kai Ni now. I have accepted I will never reach E-7 and rescue Warspite this event, I just want to get Richie and maybe try to farm Teste.

Halp.
