It's the answer I came up after AL/MI, I wasn't running on such an organized and massive fleet before that event and did have quite a lot of trouble on deployment issues.

The first time I tried this kind of management was on 2014 Fall. It couped quite well with the ship locking mechnisim and I don't really have to worry about sacraficing a part of my main fleet to deal with easier maps. But the composition varies with each event, so there are going to be minor adjustments according to the navigation requirements.

There is a downside though. You do have to invest some time on the reserve fleet (the starter fleet) and the wildcards for them to be able to fend for themselves during events. So there's going to be quite a lot of leveling (plus farming in my case) to do after each event, not to mention you have to juggle with the quests the developers throw out afterwards.

It isn't easy, but being able to react to any situation thrown at you is worth the effort though.
