The first thing to do is to get away from 2-4 hell. To do that you need remodeled and max modernized battleships and carriers.

You're in luck, Hiryuu is really rare early on (like really). With some luck you can score the remaining of Kongou-class from World 2 to open the 4th fleet.

Level the three CVs and some BBs you have in 2-4-A, accompanied by mix of smaller ships.

Something like: BB/CV flagship - CV/BB - CVL - 3 mix of DD/CL/CA however you like.

While doing this, develop planes. Use 20 fuel 60 ammo 110 bauxite until you got like two Saiuns, then drop the bauxite to 90. Your aim is a lot of Ryuusei Kai, Reppuu, and Shiden Kai Ni.

As for the girls:

CL - Isuzu (Kai Ni at Lv. 50), Naka (Kai Ni Lv. 48), Sendai (for night equipment), Jintsuu (gorilla). Natori is also nice (albeit weaker than Nagara) and Yura is a good investment as well.

CA - The Myoukou sisters. Mogami should be Kai'd since she is the only easily-obtainable CAV. Tone & Chikuma is long-term investment. Maya is a top priority for her AA cut-in ability, too.

CVL - Jun'you & Ryuujou have Kai Ni albeit needing high level. Try to get Hiyou later. Chiyoda & Chitose is pretty good as well (Lv. 55-ish Kai Ni).

BB - Complete your Kongou-class. Nagato, Fusou, and Yamashiro should be leveled whenever possible.

DD - Level whoever doesn't need blueprint for their Kai Ni.
