User blog:EchoHolic/Echo's Equipment Configuration Talk

THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, PLEASE COME BACK LATER

Introductions
Rather than introductions, I'd actually like to explain this blog post. It's not only a self reference for equipment, but I've seen newer players and some who've been playing for awhile having various misunderstandings about combat, equipement, and various other mechanics about the game. Usually my reaction is to link newer players to the Combat page, but as KanColle develops, increasing amounts of new mechanics and types of equipment emerge every few months, sometimes obsoleting information we once knew, and not everyone does keep up with these developments.

The intricate mechanics of KanColle is highly fascinating but also confusing to people who do not keep up or have read several conflicting first-hand reports on mechanics within the game. I'd like to present a simple referral page for people to hopefully find useful when trying to figure out what to equip on their girls.

The goal of this page is to present the following:
 * Simple referencable equipment loadouts for each of the normal maps, as well as Extra Operations. (eg. x-5 maps)
 * A listing of several of what I think is the best optimal configs for each type of ship.
 * Listing of several pieces of the more unique released equipment and my opinions on it's functions.
 * Explanations of several game mechanics as simple as possible and what it means for you and your ships.

Ship Loadouts
Note: Recommended Equipment will be ordered from the worst to the best, to accommodate newer admirals that might not have higher tier equipment.
