Fleet composition
HQ 79 LoS: 251 Effective LoS: 81 AS: 111

Main fleet:
 * CV Kaga Kai (Suisei M12A, Reppuu x2, Saiun)
 * FBB Kongou Kai (46cm x2, Type 0 Observation seaplane, Type 91 AP shell)
 * BB Nagato Kai (46cm, 41cm, Type 0 Observation seaplane, Type 1 AP shell)
 * CA Haguro Kai (20.3 cm x 2, Type 0 Recon seaplane, 15.5cm secondary)
 * CA Nachi Kai (20.3 cm x2, Type 0 Recon seaplane, 15.5cm secondary)
 * DD Hibiki Kai (10cm HA, 10cm HA + Air director, Type 22 Surface Radar)

Second fleet:
 * CLT Kitakami Kai Ni (Midget sub, Quad Oxygen torpedo x2)
 * CL Isuzu Kai Ni (15.5 cm secondary x2, Enhanced Steam Boiler)
 * DD Shimakaze Kai (10cm HA x 3)
 * DD Inazuma Kai (12.7cm 3-star, 10cm HA x2)
 * DD Yuudachi Kai Ni (12.7 Type B, Quad Oxygen torpedo, Quint Oxygen torpedo)
 * DD Shigure Kai (12.7cm maxed, 10cm HA, Enhanced Steam Boiler)

Notes:
 * 1) There are three LoS checks in this map
 * Successful LoS check leads to E>G instead of E>D (dead end)
 * Successful LoS check leads to H>I instead of H>J (dead end)
 * Successful LoS check leads to G>H instead of G>I (boss node, unverified)
 * 1) E > G > H > I is a no-fuel, no-ammo boss fight. With this fleet composition, it's best to retreat after the maelstrom (node E) otherwise the going will be extremely rough.
 * 2) It's possible to bypass other ships and attack BB-hime directly due to Line ahead formation.
 * 3) Sparkles help a lot in this stage because of the increased accuracy. This is especially true for ships in the main fleet who will be suffering accuracy penalties from Combined fleet. Optional for second fleet.
 * 4) Boss support is not required to clear the stage.

Data
Routes taken:
 * B > F > H > I
 * B > F > E > G > H (retreat)

Drops:
 * G: Asashio
 * H: Hibiki, Ooi, Michishio, Yuudachi, Nagara, Suzukaze
 * I: Nagara, Kongou, Maruyu, Kirishima, Yamashiro

Enemy patterns:
 * B: Easy first node. Line ahead formation
 * CL He Class3.pngCL Ho Class2.pngDD I Class 4.pngDD I Class.pngDD I Class.pngDD I Class.png
 * F: Battle node with Ru-class flagship. Line ahead formation.
 * BB Ru Class3.pngCA Ri Class3.pngDD Ro Class 4.pngDD Ro Class 4.pngDD Ro Class.jpgDD Ro Class.jpg
 * H: Carrier node with Wo-class (42 AS). Has a low chance of getting Wo-class II (126 AS) under HQ 80 and Wo-class Kai above HQ 80. Diamond formation. This is a tough node to acquire AS in case of Wo-class II and Wo-class Kai.

 * CV Wo Class5.pngCA Ri Class3.pngCL_Tsu_b.jpgCL_Tsu_b.jpgDD I Class 4.pngDD I Class 4.png
 * G: Ta-class flagship, CVL flagship and creeps. Miss the screenshot here due to panic mode, no data.
 * I: Boss node. The second pattern is arguably easier than initial pattern given strong airpower. The CVL flagship is replaced with Wo-class flagship, Wo-class II and Wo-class Kai for higher level Admirals. Line ahead formation.
