Although the Artillery wasn't there yet so this year seems more legit? It was "REVATIVELY big operation" (6 maps) last spring, this time it's just BIG (7 maps according to 15 summer).

There was no "total war" reference last year as well. Nor 6-4.

BTW why is the top post referring to Leyte? From all we know it's going to be Operation Ke-Go this time.

And, what is rumored to be introduced in spring is not a jet aircraft, but a land-based aircraft (along with its game mechanic). It's likely to be Leyte because if a: Iowa, even though NJ got all the fame and b: Leyte gave them the chance to force their kantai kessen plan that they had been waiting for an opportunity for since the war began, although said plan was counting on a great deal more ships and skilled aircrew than they had at that point. If a plan revolving around a decisive battle with everything they had isn't all out war, iunno what is. BTW wasn't Operation SN the KanColle version of Ke-go from a 'what if the IJA/N managed to retake Henderson' perspective? I may be wrong there though.

Jet aircraft will be implemented at some point, but yeah I agree land based aircraft is more likely given recent dev info. I hope we get our own InstallationMusu to go with them and it's not just an overhaul of support expeditions.
