[!] Long list of content, take your time to read.



Depending on the upcoming event maps and the amount of resource you have currently, you might be lucky enough to clear Fall 2015 or just a few map. It is said to have some foreign heavy ships and i'm sure you don't want to miss the chance. Therefore, you have to make time and effort to prepare your fleet.

I strongly recommend you to stay softcap and stick to powerleveling. Forget about farming for Isokaze and mackeral unless you're training DD/CL(T) in EO 1-5. You also need to unlock the 4th fleet which is vital for every effort.(which require you to find the other 2 Kongou sisters) You can get Hiei and Kongou from 3-2A powerleveling.

(Recommendation for Easy - 4DD 2CL 2CLT 3CA 1CAV 2CVL 4BB 4CV - At least level 50+)

DD - You will need to level up Ushio to level 60, she will be your first AACI kanmusu.

CA - I strongly recommend you to train Aoba as mentioned by the two ttk above, her decent luck stats at kai remodel should give you an edge for an early game. You may also choose to level the Myoukou class or Maya. (Myoukou for stats + guns) (Maya for AACI)

CAV - Level Mogami for the time being.

CV(L) - Focus on leveling Chiyoda and Chiyoda to kai ni. Free reppuu, type 13 kai and high stats is quite a good exchange for resource.

BB(V) - Train up Kirishima, Nagato, Mutsu, Yamashiro and Fusou. By right you shouldn't focus on leveling Ise and Hyuuga, their firepower is only as good as CA.



Other than the equipment list mentioned by TTK lol, you should also craft a couple of Saiun, Ryuusei(Kai) and Suisei Model 12A.

Regarding events:

If you have plenty of resource left, aim to farm for the rare non-DD shipgirls such as Akashi, Ooyodo, Unryuu, etc. You will acqurie lots of rare DD along the way, keep them for later. Also, use this opportunity to purposely train up any weak shipgirls. If not, keep spamming expedition for buckets and unlock fleet #4.

Once event is cleared/over, you will have to establish a standard fleet:

(8+DD 2+CL 2+CLT 4+CA 2+CAV 4CVL 4+BB 2+BBV 4+CV at level 60+ for Medium)

DD - Currently you have 6, you will need a couple more DD as back up. You may wish to level up some of your favourite DD. Unless you care about stats, level Hatsushimo, Fubuki and Ayanami.

CL - You will need to level up Abukuma, Jintsuu, Ooyodo* and Yuubari*. (*If you have one) The first BP should be given to Abukuma once she hits level 75.

CLT - Find Ooi and level Kiso to kai ni, you're better off with their 61cm in case there is an embargo placed on CLT.

CA - Aoba will be replaced by Myoukou. Basically, you train the Myoukou class and Maya(if you have not train her previously). You can also add in other CA you want, the more CA the better it is. Don't remodel Choukai just yet.

CAV - You will need to find Suzuya and Kumano from crafting/sortie (crafting is better) OR you can get train up Tone and Chikuma which will require you one BP each.

CV - You will have to find all the CV as you progress into the game, it might be a problem for you as you try to craft for them. If you found Kaga by chance, level her more frequently. Eventually, Hiryuu and Souryuu will be remodeled to kai ni. Their elite plane squadrons can be upgradable after you clear their quest.(you might need to read the wikia page for them) Shoukaku can also be upgrade to kai ni ONLY if you acquire the prototype flight deck catapault from quest.

CVL - Assuming you have trained Jun'you to kai ni, she is most likely level 80+, that one less CVL to worry about so focus on level everyone else. I strongly recommend you to level Chiyoda, Chitose first before you level Zuihou, Ryuujou and Hiyou. Shouhou and Houshou is quite weak so train them last.

BBV - Fusou and Yamashiro will eventually be remodeled to kai ni.

Regarding LSC:

I strongly do not recommend anyone to attempt LSC unless you really need to get Taihou to fill in the CV requirement or you need the 4th SS to unlock Deustchland ship and flying Stuka. Otherwise, stay away from them to conserve all resource for training/crafting purposes. If you still have the desire to construct your favourite shipgirl such as Yamato, Bismarck, etc. Limit yourself to one LSC per week or something.

Crafting:

You will be crafting better equipments for now,

Fighters - 6+ Reppuu/Shiden Kai II (the more the better)

Dive Bombers - Plenty of Suisei Model 12A to replace the outdated Suisei.

Torpedo Bombers - Plenty of Ryuusei or Ryuusei Kai to replace the existing Tenzan.

Shells - 6 Type 3 Shells and 6 Type 91 AP.

After you have pretty much crafted the planes, you will now have to worry about the Radars. At this stage, you will have lots of outdated Type 21/22/13 radars that has terrible stats as compared to Type 32/33/14/13 kai/22 kai,etc. Focus on the basic first, craft Type 32/33/14. Huge radars can be equipped such as type 32 which can be very useful for training BB in 3-2A powerleveling. A couple of those things should do you good for events.

If you have Akashi, level her to kai first. You will be improving and upgrading lots of stuff by then. Focus on the 20.3cm (no.2), 35.6cm, Type 91 AP first. If you have plenty of guns, feel free to improve the 41cm, 38cm or 381mm/50 if you have foreign ships in your fleet.

ok..thats enough from me, feel free to come back and repost everything should you need more review for your fleet. Good Luck and God Speed! o7
