Welcome back. Gangut's event was the Winter event March 2017.

Advice for this event and beyond:  Full Disclosure, this may require you getting more ship slots. In fact...yest it will require you get more slots as you're close to the limit now and if you want to keep any event drops or reward ships you'll need to start spending the money. I recommend PayPal.

AVs. Get another Chitose and Chiyoda, remodel them to A and then level them up to their 60s.

CVLs. Remodel Chiyoda into a CVL and level her up with Chitose. Use them together, always. Get a Zuihou and KN her.

AO. Find a way to XP-sponge level up Hayasui. Her ability to carry torp bombers on Transport maps is hilarious.

CVB. Grats on Taihou, level her up as much as you can. Plan on having the cranes join her when you get their quest chains done and remodel them into Kai Ni A armored CVs.

BBV. Get and level up Ise to KN. This is long-term and not something you need immediately.

FBB. Level up Gangut to her 90s and give her final remodel. Give her expansion slot for turbine use to make her actually fast and then use her as poor man's Bismarck FBB with torpedo strike.

BB. Level up Nagato to 90s and KN her. This is long-term goal.

CAV. You don't have nearly enough of these. Buy ship slots and get more CAVs they are practically required for event maps any more. Priority to Suzuya and Kumano KN, followed by Tone and Chikuma KN followed by the other Mogami class. Level up Mikuma to 30 for the 203mm No3 gun. Get as many of that gun as you can and eventually improve four of them to +4 and then +9. Long term goal.

CA. Choukai KN and Zara Due should be a goal for these. Get more of them, especially the Myoukou class and level them all to KN.

CLT. Level up KitaOoi much more.

CL. Level up Oyodo and ABKM to their 90s.

DDs. Level up every daihatsu carrying DD you can for Transport maps. Get as many of the Yuugumo and Kagerou class KN as you have BPs for, preference going to Yuugumo and Naganami for the Model D gun.

The harshest thing about this is that it will be impossible for you to remain a 100 slotter and improve your fleet meaningfully while keeping slots open for event drops and rewards.
