Alright, the simple answer is: you will be able to do a few maps on hard unless they demand specific historical ships that you do not have, though due to obvious lack of a variety of ships you will have to do at least one ship lock on easy unless you somehow manage to minmax your fleet perfectly. Don't expect too much since it's a large scale event. You would be just fine to do hard on a small scale event.

As a 100 slotter, you are going to have issues with historical routing due to not having the large number of weaker ships the route demands, meaning you will have to do a lower difficulty, go a different but harder route/fleet composition, or straight up give up on the event past that point. The KanColle devs cater to people who have been playing the game for a long time and have bought more slots, so you would have trouble no matter what. I can't really help with that issue.

A resource that may help you in the future that I have recently come across: https://infograph.venngage.com/publish/574fef24-b4fa-415f-a7ee-d7b272949ee2 PeroimFeld wrote:

Do I have a shot at hard? To put it bluntly: no.

Even ignoring the lack of historical ships, you’re severely lacking in both ships and equipment to tackle Hard. For example, you only have 8 combat DDs at a decent level, while the last large-scale event required 20 DDs to effectively deal with all the locks. You’re also lacking in strength when it comes to CAs, CAVs, CVLs, and even your FBBs are somewhat underleveled. Equipment-wise, you’re severely lacking LBAS planes, which you can’t craft right now because your resources are barely enough for Medium, especially bauxite.

You might be able to handle a handful of maps on Hard if you save your elite ships for them, but a full-Hard clear would require insane amounts of luck, sanity and resources, and might be literally impossible if the devs pull another “you need this many historical ships or fuck off”, like they did in the last event.

Thanks for the input. I guess I'll do the event on easy with a few maps on normal/hard if the equipment is worth it as usual.
