Notes:


 * If the Land Base bug was fixed or not, I didn't notice anything. All the almighty Land Bases did was help Akizuki tame Lycoris, kill the transport and sometimes kill the DDs too. As for Lycoris and the Gold Rus, it was nothing more than a few mosquito bites.


 * In the whole operation, the Rus never died in day battle, not even during Last Dance with boss support expedition. On the other hand, they were more than eager to disable at least 2 of my girls with their double attacks, sometimes even with just single attacks.


 * Started using boss support expedition at 14th run (second in Last Dance), with a 2 BB, 2 CV, 2 DD shell support. Despite all the upgraded gear and radars mounted, it didn't even kill the DDs. For the 15th run, switched to air raid support (1 CVL, 3 CV, 2 DD), and this at least managed to kill a DD and poke Lycoris and the Rus on the last run (15th run was a retreat). Even so, it was so harmless that it felt like a waste of resources. Luckily, the bauxite drain was minimal, thanks to a tamed Lycoris and some air power included in the support fleet itself.
