I don't think the Yamato-class ships are a must for clearing events at higher difficulty. Reason being, they are slow ships, and in my experience, there are more event maps that prefer the use of fast ships over slow ones, which makes the opportunity to use them rather limited. Of course, one can now equip turbines to make them go fast, but it is quite pricey (expansion slot + turbine + boiler, and after that, you only have 3 slots to work with).

Pasta battleships will benefit you more in the long run, and much cheaper to max out compared to Bisko. By the way, don't fret the minus accuracy factor in their guns. If pasta guns are stuck into pasta ships, they perform really well.
