Put an FBB with Type 3 Shell in the escort fleet, sure it diverts you, but you can refresh and try again.

I wouldn't even bother with FCF, it takes up a slot and if your units aren't getting to the boss in all green, it's not worth the run unless you get really good aerial support and superior RNG targetting by the heavy hitters in night battle.

Have your tried Night Recon/Searchlight/StarShells? Put the searchlight on ABKM or KTKM, they won't be instrumental in night battle, in fact, replace KTKM with a FBB, only one target can even be torped.

Switch out a CAV in the main fleet for Akitsumaru (doesn't count as a carrier) and shove 3 Reppus or better on her for AS, this means you can sub out Maya in the eescort fleet or another CAV (you can just switch Maya with Tone/Chikuma then switch Maya out for Akitsumaru).

That's how I beat E-6 easy after a ton of resources, buckets, and salt.
