E-2 Easy (cont.)
Brute force worked and brave, new ducky is mine.
No notable drops.

E-3 Easy
TP Bar went down surprisingly quickly with a lot more S ranks than I was expecting, but a few extra runs to possibly snag Eugen have either ended early due to troll subs or non-S at the boss. I'm getting real sick of this shit and I suppose my girls are too, so I'll be reorganizing to attack Cocoa Hime tomorrow.

So kancolle kai just got released. Any footage?

There has been lots of people who have been streaming it.

I hope you got a Nico Nico account, cause you're going to need it!

Here's what I can summarize about early game play in a nutshell:

1. The game can be summarized as "Kancolle Lite" or "Kancolle for the busy person who doesn't have enough time to play a browser game."

2. You're mainly taking fleets out into waters and you start out in the Naval Base Waters much like the orginal game itself. You'll need to fight off abyssals to expand outside of the base waters and explore locations further outward.

3. You have to keep the waters in check because Abyssals Fleet CAN and WILL try to reclaim them. (The hex will change gradually from white to yellow, to red.

4. If the Hex goes red, Abyssals fleets will be attempting to reclaim said waters, you'll need to use what fleet you have there to launch a counter attack to stop thier attack. If you successfully drive them away, you'll prevent them from claiming the area.

5. Alternative ways to keep the waters in check is to constantly sortie in waters.

6. Combat looks awfully cheap looking in appearance due to the 2D Cut outs on 3D waters. But in some sense you have some degree of control over what you kanmusus do in battle. You can focus on using guns, toredoes, planes, ect. So if you prioritize on only guns, your kanmusus will fire, but won't launch torpedoes. Combat mechanics are definetly different to the browser in some degree.

7. You can skip battle sequences.... and by that I mean litterally just jump to the results upon the engaging an enemy unit.

8. You can manage up to 12 fleets.. and you WILL be using them all.

9. Everything in the game has been changed to turn base (turns are marked as weeks). This includes construction, repairs, expeditions, and so forth.

10. There is Fleet Practice much like the original game. But since this game is a single player game, it's not PVP based. Instead you use your other fleet members to engage in Naval Practice.

11. There is a Fleet Drill which serves as an alternative to Practice, where your kanmusus can take a turn practicing firing thier augments. This will allow them to gain exp and boost some stats.

12. Each fleet has thier own office which can be customized.

13. Kanmusus in 2Dlive are kinda simple, but cute to see animated. Thank goodness they did not go overboard with it.

14. There are 4 difficulties in the game Easy, Normal, Hard, and Historical which I can assume is the equivalent to Touhou's Lunatic mode.

15. Iowa is confirmed to be the USN Kanmusus to appear in the game, but she will not appear likely till New Game + As of current, no one has made it that far...

16. Exp gain is very huge in this game. You can level up Kanmusus rather quick.

17.  There is still furniture, coin boxes, and the premium shop and quests much like Kantai Collection.

18. Preimum shop is drastically different in this game due to being a single player game. During your game, as you capture locations or fend off Abyssal Fleets you'll gain "Strategic Points" which act as you equivalant to DMM point currency to buy things like construction slots and repair slots.

19. Additional slots for Construction and repair are really important since you racing against the Abyssal fleets.

20. Plane animation during Carrier fights look really nice.

21. Think of this as "Kancolle: The Strategy Simulation Game"

I still have yet to see anyone get Akashi so I don't know how her workshop works though I know it exists. And I know that SOME event inspired waters are within the game including AL/ MI and Operation FS.

Outside of that it's just going to be a waiting game since it's going to take some time before someone beats the game first. Under my personal opinion, this is the kind of game I recommend to someone who isn't into playing the browser game, but still want to try something equivalent to it that they can play at thier own pace. It can in turn get them hooked. It's kind of a way to introduce players to the Kancolle franchise outside of the internet. For the veteran admirals out there. I'm not sure it has much to offer, but if you're looking to play the same game with a twist thrown in...or want to desperately see Iowa badly... then you might want to take a look at this game.

I'm finished with this event now. E-1 and E-2 both felt relatively easy on hard. E-3 wasn't too bad until the final kill. Final kill took me 15 attempts which could be worse. There were very little retreats and most attempts ended with just failing to kill the boss. Usually involved the escort fleet being mostly knocked out before night battle. Boss was finally torpedoed by Abukuma surpassing my expectations. I thought the final blow would be dealt by either a CLT or DD. I guess Abukuma will most likely be receiving future Maruyus as Kitakami doesn't really need any more luck than 48 when everyone else has received no extra luck.



Kancolle Kai doesn't really seem too good though that impression may change as more footage is released. 2Dlive kinda creeps me out though.

Kancolle Arcade on the other hand is still looking like it's going to be great. Shame there's almost no chance I'll ever get to try it personally.

E-3 cleared on Hard which means I managed to clear an entire event on hard. I took a STF and went JKIL to the boss (Boss). You encounter potentially 1-2 battleship princesses in J and 0-2 Ru-kai class battleships in L. The I node is an airfield princess node and there's nothing threatening about that. I'm not sure what the devs intended for those nodes to be. I rarely ever took more than 20 damage across the entire fleet on those nodes. For most of my runs I used this configuration:

[attach=4]

Leading up to last dance, my record was 5 boss kills and a ~60% kill. I used FCF once and did not need to send everyone home. Turns out that battleship princesses have terrible aim. Last dance took three tries, and I was fairly confident that I could do it in a couple days. First two attempts at last dance made it to the boss but failed were because everyone kept firing at wrong targets in NB, but on the third try, a one-two punch from Kitakami and Yukikaze were enough to finish that boss off.

[attach=1][attach=2][attach=3]

Now I don't know what to do.

Yukikaze secures the kill with a torp wall. If I wasn't running expeditions to support my fuel consumption, I might have used a good shelling to help knock down BB hime for an S clear, but bygones are bygones.
Special thanks go to Donna Summer.
Notable drops: Hatsukaze, Nagato, Taigei.

As far as I understand, not quite. But a Type 3 + WG42 combo can do insane damage. Try that on a Heavy Cruiser if you're having trouble killing the Supply Depot Hime, odds are you might kill her in one shot in night battle.

Finally completed the event on Medium! Which is all I could manage with only 40+ buckets stored up. Talk about teitoku on a budget. Plus an extra Okinami present on the final kill.

I'll just burn the remaining buckets on E-4 Pencil-hunting now.

What are you all using for Akizuki / Amagi farming on E-2?

I'm sending in my 4BB2CV team I used for clearning and while I can get the job done reasonably well it's expensive. The other formations I tried don't seem to fare so well getting to the boss. 2DD 2CA FBB CV gets turned around at G node frequently with the double Ta / Ta + Wo Kai because they're too squishy to tank hits from those powerful units.

This is what I get for being very sick and not getting into a good enough condition to watch for Kancolle Kai's outcome these last few days now Iowa is out.

Either way, I had a chance to examine her and personally I have to say this is a bit of a surprise. Wasn't expecting Yoshinori to be doing the American ships, but hey whatever floats his boat.

I had a good amount of time hearing the limited amount of lines that are present (since right now only one person has publicly announced he has her..

She speaks an surprising amount of English with a hint of Japanese thrown in between.

http://en.kancollewiki.net/wiki/Iowa#Quotes

She's more or less a reverse Kongou. (Since Kongou speaks Japanese with some English thrown in, as to Iowa who speaks mostly English with some Japanese toss in)

They like unique polar opposites to each other.

Oh BTW, the only way you're getting Iowa in Kancolle Kai is to beat the game on the Medium Difficulty setting , you won't be rewarded her on any lighter diffculty settings to date.

Don't plan to get Kai? Then you're just going to have to wait.... Spring or Summer... whenever she's going to come out for the browser version.

On another Kancolle Kai note:

There's a patch coming out for it tomorrow, it'll have 2 new quests and fix some display bugs.

I'm farming E-2 Hard Mode with Kasumi/Asashimo/Kiyoshimo/Ashigara/Tone/Chikuma, which goes A-E-I-J-M-O. Those 6 ships are all sparkled. Also, I'm bringing a boss support expedition (2BB/2CVL/2DD) with only the flagship sparkled.

In 25 sorties I have 18 boss S-ranks, 5 boss A-ranks, and 2 retreats. The boss support expedition makes farming expensive, though.

The ships I didn't have from E-2 when I started farming were Akizuki, Umikaze, Okinami, Amagi, and Noshiro. The only one who has dropped so far is Noshiro, on the 25th sortie, in which the boss was in final form.

Oh my god this game actually looks really good, and has ACTUAL GAMEPLAY. You can actually scout for enemy fleets, move the fleet around, and actually dodge enemy attacks.

And the character 3D animations and interactions are good too!

It's also a pity because based on what some people reported, you're going not just need to be in Japan to play this thing, but you're going to need a big wallet. Cause like all Arcade machines, this one will eat your yen and FAST.

Apperently you'll need to put 300 yen in the start the game when it comes out. Which give you 300 GP

Every 100 yen following that is 100 extra GP.

Currently GP ticks down about 1 GP per second. So you can't sit around gawking at your Kanmusus all day unfortunately. You need to prioritize and prepare your Kanmusu and do what you need to do.

Doing construction and earning kanmusus will cost you 100 GP.

GP will however freeze upon cut scenes and sorties.

And it cost GP to enter a sortie.

Unconforimed stuff which I heard might be legit is that:

If a Kanmusus sinks, she's dead, but you can revive her with a repair goddess after battle, but that will cost your 600 GP, OR you can revive her with pentalties (Which will lower her level and your HQ level), or put your decision down till later.

Player who went to play test this in the play locations that have been going on for 2 week + JAEPO were given 600 GP to use to play test.

That is technically enough to do 2 Sorties, earn 2 cards, and spend a few moments looking at your kanmusu. :P  (They were allowed to sign up for additioanl play tests)
That's one small step for man, one giant leap for Otaku Kind.

This is a rank reward prize given out to the top 500 players. More or less this plane is limited in it's uses, but provides some AA coverage.

But here's the real fun part... along with giving out these prizes.....

So now they can be able to launch seaplanes in battle just like an Aviation Battleship or Aviation Cruiser... HOWEVER.... they cannot attack submarines.
