Additionally, Tanaka expected people who don't have Oiler or stacks of WG42 (to be used with 2 AV fleet or those DDs) to bring Suijou Butai instead, filled with CAs and BBs armed with Type 3s.

Type 3 provides bonus to fleet-wide AA defense, so you would rely on them on that dreaded J node and air raid node.

Suijou Butai and Cruising Formation IV gives enough bonus, that a CA with enough firepower can still daytime cap her firepower vs. installation with Type 3 in chuuha condition.

It makes sense, doesn't it? But that doesn't change that the map still sucks.



That somewhat mirrors what happened in Spring 2016 E-2, actually. Supply Depot Princess with 2 Nose Guns. And with only one or two ships armed with Type 3 Shell, the rest had to use Daihatsus, Tanks, and WGs, but only if you had WGs and Daihatsus/Tanks need to be stacked.

The kicker? Yuu dropped in the next map.
