E-5 is finally down! http://i.imgur.com/gmCG1qu.jpg

I was beginning to despair as Aircraft Carrier Princess only needed to sink to clear, but was getting away with a minuscule amount of health left each time - five attempts in a row - and it was starting to eat into my resources. So I slept on it, and bagged her at the first attempt this afternoon. Drops, again, were pretty crappy throughout E-5, with Kumano and Hayashimo the only notable ones in a sea of BB/V and Suzuya. But I have Unryuu and the E-5 clear, which was my primary goal, so this is mission accomplished for me.

I don't quite fancy the idea of E-6 given that stronger, better equipped admirals are having trouble getting through it - that, and my fuel and bauxite has dipped under 10k for the first time in weeks, so I need to do a lot of resource gathering this weekend. I may dive into it to see what it is like, but in all honesty, I may just go back into E-3 and E-4 and farm for the last of the ships I need from the event (Kiyoshimo, Zuihou, Mikuma, Akitsu Maru, Taigei, Nagato…). It's disappointing that Akashi isn't available to admirals under lv105, and both Shioi and Sakawa aren't in the drop lists, but hopefully they'll appear again soon.

All in all, it's been a successful - if challenging - first campaign for me. To those that gave advice, thanks. :3
