Since you probably have luck modded that which need to be luck modded, what's left is having good equipment (unless you can whale up and ring everyone; the difference in survival rate is remarkable especially for heavy ships).

Upgrade list in order of importance (?):

Seaplane Fighter - Max, just get them as high AP shells - Max, need 6 of 'em

Main gun (16 inch, 381mm Kai, Proto 51) - Pair of 7 for best synergy with Max AP shell Fighter (Iwamoto, 52 Skilled) - Max for both, 52 skilled should be easy w/ monthly quest Torp (Quints) - Pair of 6 / 7 Kami Tank / Troop Daihatsu - Nice to have when you're dealing with installation but not that important since new improvements are constantly being added You'll also want to start crafting type 32 radar daily, ideally 2 for each BB/CV in support shelling (so around 16, 20 to account for possible need of 3 radars vs weak enemy + CAs equipping radar in combined fleet)
