World of Warships is going to suck very badly, I'm afraid, the lack of submarines and even the tier placement of ships has me worried enough, not to mention the no 80k ton+ ships.

I have spoken to the War Thunder Devs myself on their teamspeak which they use, and they said that they are looking into what they can put in, but won't give any specifics on the tank game or the ship game, but they are open to suggestion.

I made a thread about what kind of ships should be put in. They've been changing around the forums lately so the thread is stuck in limbo somewhere until I can contact a mod.

It's a reference to the Battle of Midway. 5th Carrier Division (Shokaku and Zuikaku) didn't join the battle since one was under repair, while the other didn't have proper planes assigned despite having left over pilots and planes from other sank carriers/ reassigning Shokaku's planes over to Zuikaku. In the end they had to rely on the four fleet carrier only at Midway, and all four sank, hence the bitterness Kaga has towards the 5th fleet for not being serious enough to even attempt to assist them.

To add on a bit more, Zuikaku, Shokaku, Kaga, Akagi, Hiryo and Soryu were the six carriers that attacked Pearl Harbor and start the war.

Well type 91 is +8 fire power +1 accuracy, whereas 15.5cm triple gives +7 fire power +3 air +2 accuracy. Does radar's accuracy stacks with itself? Does 15.5cm's accuracy stacks with itself?

I'm sure it stacks. For Type 91 vs radar, I think there's no consensus for that, probably because the crit chance increase isn't quite confirmed. But when you need to go to map with tons of whirlwind, radar is very useful, since it prevent your ship loses ammo/oil.

I was fiddling around the equipment with my BBs to prepare them for 2-4 boss and I was thinking should I keep this setup for Nagato? Or should I swap the 41cm with the 15.5cm? My other two BBs, Kongo and Kirishima are running on 46cm, 15.5cm, and 41 cm for Kongo (still haven't remodeled and still in grinding), and 41cm, 15.5cm, and two 41cm for the remaining slots for Kirishima. Haven't decided for a 4th BB but I was thinking of augmenting it with a level 50 Kitakami (w/c is just on level 32).

All right, thanks for that. I swapped the 41cm on my Nagato for the triple 15.5cm dual purpose cannons. Guess I'll just put my BBs on their 40s and Kitakami on 50 if I'm patient enough. If not I'll just swap her out for another BB on her 35s but that would mean grinding a level 5-ish to 15-ish BB (I wouldn't like to send out Fuso out there because that luck).

Yeah, I really underestimated 2-2. I wasn't expecting to go into night battle but got really unlucky and only one attack plane hit and sunk at destroyer, rest missed. And my carriers aren't very smart in choosing their targets and only aimed for ships that were already in the red, leaving 3 ships in full health so I was forced into night battle.

Destroyers were supposed to be small, fast, cheap and relatively expendable, which made them ideal for escort missions and the like. Larger ships were usually accompanied by one or more destroyers that could patrol the surrounding waters and swarm depth charges on any submarine looking for an easy target, and they could be quite capable in their duty as vanguards.

They indeed are small, fast and cheap in Kancolle, but the "expendable" part does not translate well in a game where each and every one of your daughters is precious beyond measure.

I just fought a guy who had all 4 Myouko-class at lvl 75 or so. You can do anything if you're dedicated enough to your daughters.

However, I did end up replacing Maya before I finally beat 2-4. One attempt early on I actually got sent NE and the enemy battleship promptly critted her and made me retreat, took another 10 runs before I got sent NE again, fuck that. I finally managed to build Kongou and Kirishima and replaced Maya and Yamashiro once I got them remodeled.

Maya still goes in my fleet every time I fight a practice battle against someone with carriers, as my carriers promptly go to the bench.

Blue planes only do opening attack, can be deadly, but will lost a lot from enemy anti air and fighter, if you lost too many, their damage will decrease (even to zero) If you lost all blue planes, you can't deal any torpedo damage in opening attack

Ships with high AA and (green) anti air gear may join the air defense in opening attack, after that, the ships will on their own, ship with high AA will take much less damage from bombers.

You carrier will have bombing run in shelling phase with any type of bomber, but only red planes will give you damage buff
I suggest carrier should put blue in her largest slots, then green (fighter), smaller slots for red planes and recon (yellow), without a good number (of blue) the opening attack will be weak and cant damage armored target, you dont need too many red planes - unless you got none, a few red planes already provide enough buff for carrier to damage large ships in shelling phase
You will lose a lot of blue planes without air superiority, if enemy carriers are too strong for you... then put more fighter and even consider not using blue at all

If you have a submarine, then the enemy will not attack the rest of your fleet... unless you cannot sink all of them in shelling phase, their torpedo attack may damage your surface ship

To the Anon who was doing 4-3 two or so days ago, my apologies at doubting you on that compass. It does take you all around the map. I've run the damn map 18 times and I haven't hit the boss once. It was like running E-3 all over again except you didn't have to worry about a group of BBs trying to take your guys out but instead had to worry about the compass being in your favor on that last node. I did learn you can take the northern route without Seaplane Carriers or Aircraft Cruisers which the wiki was unsure of. Still, it's a pretty low chance or just the compass fucking around with me.
Today's failure has made me so bummed out that I'm gonna keep my main fleet out. Apologies to any Admiral here who have me as an opponent.

I think Yamashirou's unluckiness is due to the fact that she never landed a hit during the battle and was pretty much bullied into oblivion. There's also this:
>Yamashiro increased speed to 15 knots in an attempt to escape the trap,[45] but she had already been hit by two to four torpedoes, and after two more torpedo hits near the starboard engine room, she was listing 45 degrees to port. Shinoda gave the command to abandon ship, but neither he nor Nishimura made any attempt to leave the conning tower as the ship capsized within five minutes and quickly sank, stern first, vanishing from radar between 04:19 and 04:21.[46] Only 10 crewmembers of the estimated 1,636 officers and crew on board survived.[47]

I wish they'd add older ships though, there were some nice ships active during the Russo-Japanese war and WWI. My favorite is the minelayer Yenisei, which had one of her mines break away and float back up to her, prompting her to panic and dive straight into her own minefield. Clumsy moe~ to the very end ;_;

There are differences on blue and red ones, though.

Blue (torpedo):
-Deals high damage but easy to shoot down.
-Can participate in enemy searches.
-Has anti-sub properties.

Red (explosive/bomb):
-Lower damage than blue planes but can't be shot down easily.
-Has anti-sub properties.

Some more info:
-Green planes (fighter) only attack other enemy planes and will not join in on shelling phases. Pretty important when up against enemy aircraft carriers.
-Scout plane Saiun (彩雲) lowers enemy detection success rate and chances of being on the disadvantegeous side of the T.
-If a unit's detection is high enough, they can participate in detection phases even without planes.
-Radars outside of battle reduces the effects done by whirpools (those purple trap things on some maps). In battle, they provide anti-air boosts.
-Mini submarines provide opening torpedo attacks similar to what aircraft carriers do after a successful detection. Also, if the enemy team is made up of nothing but submarines, your opening torpedo attacks with this thing will not deal any damage. Can't be used for night battles.
-Anti-aircraft guns and machine guns provide different effects when it comes to doing anti-air attacks. Anti-aircraft (high-angle?) guns being the better of the two.

Regarding in-battle formation position:
同航戦 - Moving in-parallel with the enemy. Your fleet and the enemy's fleet will receive hit bonuses.
反航戦 - Pretty much the reverse of 同航戦. Your fleet and the enemy's fleet will suffer from hit and (-20%) damage debuffs.
T字戦 - Crossing the T. Ships on the advantageous side of it will receive hit and (+15-20%) damage bonuses. Ships on the disadvantageous side of it will receive hit and (-40%) damage debuffs.

All of these info are on the Japanese wikis listed on the OP. Most admirals probably know these, so this is pretty much aimed for those that are just starting out. English wiki doesn't have info on these things, too.

>hamburger padding
I wish this game had a minelayer or two, imagine all these lewd mine padding and minelaying images that Pixiv would've came up with. Minelayers (except that monster Tokiwa) were usually destroyer-sized ships that didn't have much in the displacement department, so clearly the best way to represent them is a flat-chested little girl who pads her bra with mines and explodes when groped. How she produces her mines should go without saying.

Plus several minelayers doubled as minesweepers and I think a couple even served as advance guard ahead of CruDiv4, so you could have her admire larger ships and ask them to use her as a shield against potential hazards ("Onee-sama, these waters are dangerous! Please tread on me so that you won't hit a mine!").

Is there a expedition ship level requirement for expedition 17? I'm failing it with a level 16 Tenryuu leading her usual nursery school quartet (levels 6-9) + Samidare (level 15).

I'm still missing Nagato too, but that's because I haven't tried to get her for a month. I haven't even attempted to build a BB since getting Hiei to complete the Kongou set (or actually even before then since I figured I'd get her faster by drop). Every single damn build for the past month has been carrier attempts and still no Zuihou or Zuikaku.

I might finally try to beat 3-2 sometime soon and then I could get Nagato drops, all I've been running is 4-2 for Zuihou drops, killed the boss at least 30 times and no luck. Can't even get excited about holo backgrounds because it just means another Shimakaze, Akagi, or Mutsu.

Heavy cruiser is you good friend at low level, their stock HP and armor is much better than light cruiser and destroyer. But in long terms, remodel DD and CL are better than CA (remodeled or not)

>>11422310
Probably not, unless you get Yukikaze/Shimakaze or are doing 3-2 (which you won't for a while because of the horror that is 2-4).

The sad thing about destroyers is that the Japanese destroyer force was incredibly potent and made quite a name for themselves, because they had access to extremely long-range torpedoes (in fact, when they were used against the USS destroyer Strong, the navy didn't believe that their ships were sunk by destroyers from a range of 11 miles and instead thought that a submarine was responsible) that they used at every opportunity. In Kancolle, where their fragility is a greater liability, their low maintenance costs are made irrelevant by expeditions, and their ability to initiate every engagement by launching torpedoes from incredible distances is removed, they are a lot less useful.

>> No.11422396

>>11422354
http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Ship_Maximum_Status

CL can match CA in firepower and have better torpedo attack, but all CA have 4 slots (after remodel) and better HP. For destroyer, what they really lack is firepower, they still have acceptable armor (most have 49~59 cap) and agile enough to dodge enemy fire, you may already notice that large ships (BBs) love to attack the smallest or weakest ship first, that is always good to see a gold BB miss her shot on my destroyer

I heard 2 DDs lead you center green spot when you go north first.
But as above anon said, going through north has better chance to go boss.

In 4-3, 2 DDs lead you heading to the north at first compass.
After that, it depend on if you have Seaplane carriers or Mogami type.

Having 2 CAs makes you head to the last compass regardless your result of first compass.
Because if you went south at first compass, you need same chitoshiyo/mogami type to go another south spot.

They don't count remodeled mogami as CA in 4-3. They do in 4-4 tho.

Actually I already lightened my fleet once by adding Kitakami once she got 50 upgrade, and replacing either Akagi or Kaga with Hiryuu. I know Mutsu is a resource hog but I hate to just drop her from active use.

I really haven't even used CVLs much at all recently outside of 3-2 grinding, I hate how easily they get damaged before reaching the boss. Junyou has been languishing at lvl 32 for a long time, Chiyoda is slowly working towards 50.

Well, so much for using Chiyoda. Her stat caps are virtually the same between her lvl 35 and lvl 50 forms, so I went ahead and replaced Akagi in my previously posted fleet with Chiyoda (and Mutsu with Kirishima) and tried running 4-2 again. Very first battle, flagship CL and elite CA both target Chiyoda and knock her into the yellow; battle before the boss, enemy airstrike rapes her down to 20 hp and I have to withdraw short of the boss for the first time ever. This is why I hate CVLs outside of grinding easy battles, saving resources doesn't do much good if I fail the map.

Now I'm stuck running it with Kaga and Akagi since that wasted run also got Hiryuu damaged but not enough to bucket.

And I seriously need more holo planes just to keep all my carriers permanently equipped, the damn equipment interface is so horribly laggy, it's just agonizing to swap my best planes every time I switch carriers.
