To anyone having trouble scoring S-ranks on Easy:

STF: 2 FBB, 1 CA, 1 CL, 2 CVL + 1 CL, 3 CLT, 2 DD

FBB: 41cm + 35.6cm + seaplane + AP Shell

CA: Maya K2 - best red gun + HA sec/HA+FD sec + 25mm concentrated + best air radar

Main CL: 4 slot recommended - 2~3 best sonar + best DC

CVL: best torp bomber on biggest slot, rest best fighters, MUST EQUIP ONE SAIUN!!!

Escort CL: ABKM K2 - sonar + DC + hyoteki

CLT: sonar + DC + hyoteki

DD: 2 sonar + DC


 * All planes, specially fighters, must be double chevron, or you may not get air supremacy. Air supremacy is very important, as it will gimp the enemy attacks and boost yours. Also improves the chances of Maya wiping the Wos and turn them into sitting ducks.


 * Although not mandatory, the BB guns and AP shells should be Akashi improved, to increase the firepower and accuracy. One could use stronger BBs instead, but that results in slow fleet. I believe that fast fleets get evasion bonus, which reflects on the repair bill. One improved 41cm gun on a Kongou class doesn't seem to apply overweight. Also, T1 AP (+1) = T91 AP (+6) + 1 accuracy.


 * If ABKM K2 is not available, any good ASW CL will do. In that case, there will be one less torpedo in the opening. Recommend a 4 slot CL/CT.


 * For ASW equips, prioritize Akashi improved gear over non-improved gear, and T4 > T3 > T94/93.
