That guide strikes me as a bit mistaken on some points. There's literally no point in choosing double line for preboss nodes if you are going 3BB(slow)2CV1CVL, especially on node E. If you don't destroy the Re-Elite ASAP she will definitely oneshot your CVs if given a first/second chance to do shelling attack, especially since node E enemy tends to use line ahead rather than double line or star. The only way to avoid that is to line ahead, hope your support fleet + opening bombers take out as many of the mooks, and then hope your Yamato sushis the Re-class before _she_ does your CVs in.

Using 46cms on Bismark is also questionable for this map, the added range means Bismarck might attack before Yamato classes and there's no way Bismarck can kill or redden the Re-elite in 1 hit, even with AP double attack or CI, unless T-advantage in which case you would probably be fucked by the opening torpedo.

And what the heck is the TB on chitose for, 8-slot TB isn't going to do anything but chip(especially since chitose lacks FP), might as well swap for turbines or armour or more air power or NB equipment or something more useful. Waste of a slot if you ask me.

P.s. just cleared 5-5 this month. 6 sorties, 1 forced retreat at node E due to Re-Elite, 5 clean boss kills. non-boss support for first 4 kills, non-boss and boss support for boss kill. No BS compass spin.
