If you never tried them, the Italian BBs are beastly when Kai'ed. More firepower than Nagato class with their fit guns (the 381mm Kai version), with less armor and comparable HP. Innate very long range means they will fire the first roung in your fleet, so you can optimize firing order. Being classified as Fast, they're also more flexible, be it for branching rules or if you need a FBB in escort fleet and you don't have/have already locked Bismarck Drei. Their stock equipment are also very good for other ships in your fleet. They do cost a lot to deploy, but they are my go-to BBs if I need raw power nowadays (Yamato class in a whole other level, but they're WAY more expensive to sortie and repair).

Anyways, good luck with your farming, sooner or later you'll get what you want :)
