ohh Haguro lover. I like you, you will be fine! all haguro lovers are blessed by RNG. so there is nohting that can stop us!

ok on the serious side:

DD: Yukikaze and Aynami levels are too low. (to some extent Teruzki too) and yeah shimkaze too. Your go to choice for final map combined fleet DDs are Yukikaze and Anaymai (since thye have high luck to CI attack in night battle) so i would PVP them to 80+ at least. Shimkaze can be left at 70 as backup.

CL/CLT: Ok. just keep pvp those CLT to bump them up a bit.

CA: Haguro is all you need!. ok fuck shiplock. just train more Haguro!!!. (serious side, you are fine.)

CV(L): Pretty much fine,

BB: No LSC BB is bit annoying for hard, but you did all you can. I guess just LSC after this event (remember HAGURO Flagship!! she brought Yamato and I -401 back to home for me)

Resoruces is ok, should be enough for hard clear, you might run a bit low on farming for drops. Depends on how much ships you need to farm. but no worries. just keep stockpilling for the last 10 day ish.

Equipment:

You have all the basisc requirments, enough Reppuu, bombers, Saiun (can be more i guess you removed 2 for new fighters, it is ok i am the same). enough shells and other stuff.

However i want to comment on upgrade.

1) It is a very bad idea to max a 41 cm with nothing else. This is because upgrade bonus is square root. Which means a max is only 3 pt of bonus (sqrt of 10 round down to 3 ). And it took you huge amount of screws and 41 cm.

THe trade off you could have were 8 X 41+1. This is 8 pts of bonus (in a  combined fleet where 4BB is used). compare to 3 you got from that max 41cm. You wasted more screws and 41cm for less bonus.

That is why width of upgrade is more improtant than height. It is far better to start with 4X 41+4, than 2X41 MAX. I hope that make sense.

2) Bear that in mind, YOu only have 4 41cm left. This is really poort. For a combined BB fleet. you need 8 guns at least. Assume you use both proto 41, and your 1 41cm max 1 41cm +5. and 2 35.6cm max (which is only really useable on Krishima) thatso nly 6 guns. Plus 2 41 not upgraded. (ok this hurts but useable). You might say thats 8 and I am fine.

How about support fleet? each support use 2 BB. 2 support is another 8 guns? what you going to use?

3) Since you are out of 41 cm, you cant really upgrade heavy guns right now. 91 AP shell is max that is good, but i think you wasted too much resources crafting those extra AP shells. +6 is usually fine and not much weaker than max 91 AP shell.

4) Moving on to what you should upgrade:

Medium calibre guns: 20.3 no3 and 20.3 no2 (since you only have 2 no 3.) these should be +4 (eventually +6)

Quint oxy tropedo, used for CI attacks, should be +4 as well (aim for +6 later)

If you got time, should also upgrade a spotlight to +4 (going to max later) Don't evolve this into big spotlight which is not useful.

Over all you have a strong fleet and clear Autumn hard should be no problem.

People think hard is way too hard, but in reality it is not that hard.

I started this game on March 22nd, cleared Spring all hard on April 28th (starting)

Then moved on to clear Summer all hard. (even it was much harder than spring event)

I admit I am quite hard core player. But your fleet is much strtonger than mine when i was facing Spring event.

people just dont push themselves hard enough and stay in the comfort zone, and chicken out the whole time.

It is sad to see, but thats people.
