I S-ranked at first try, with Zara, Pola, Italia and Roma, carrying 2 seaplane bombers (not fighters) + 2 guns, together with Yuudachi and Ayanami for routing, carrying 2 zuki guns + a sonar.

Pre-boss nodes all Echelon - despite what a certain blog says, that Line Abreast is the better defensive formation for night battles, I speak from experience that Echelon works the best for my fleets -, at boss gets AP and mild airstrike, and the pastas don't attack submarines despite carrying bombers.

"Stock" Zara Due nearly killed the Hime in night battle, which greatly surprised me with her almost non-existant torpedo stat.
