Do you have any CVLs GPop? They might work somewhat, but you might need to have more Saiuns prepared to make some headway in Midway during the LoS check. Because the LoS check needs to be high from your carrier fleet in order to reach the boss, otherwise you'll always be misdirected.
Anyways, I didn't do this last night, but here we go... report from last night...
E-6 - the final strech
After nearly 160 buckets of net loss used I've finally reached the final form of the BBhime.
The catch is... she now has a dopplganger...
So I'm fighting against two BB himes now. As usual the real target is the flagship. But since she now has a meatsheild that protects her this makes the battle VERY HARD.
The enemy formation consist of 2 BBhime, 1 Gold Ru, 1 gold Wo, an 2 late model destoyers. Taking out the minions is the easy part. It's dealing with the BBhime that isn't.
They have four shots at critting you ship girls making them incapacitated during the day + 2 possible cut ins at night. The whole idea of fighting them will require a hell of a load of luck in order to survive. Because you have to hope that again, you shipgirls don't get mangled, and that ultimately they will aim for the core target... the flagship BB hime.
For this, I'm using my kill fleet, which I have two types of kill fleets set up.
1. BB / CTL kill fleet: Hiyou, Mutsu, Kirishima, Ooi, Kitakami, and Chiyoda.
This team is mainly set up to be an more defensive fleet to resist damage bit usually faces the confilct of of the CV Hime's 3 attacks during pre boss which can be problematic. It'll consume steel like no ones business....
For the kill here, I'm fully depending on the CLTs to perform the final kill. They will need to be able to perform this and aim for the BBhime, since BBs at night can only do much agaisnt tanky BBhimes (they are NOT very good at damaging them)
2. CA / CTL kill fleet: Hiyou, Haguro, Myouko, Ooi, Kitakami, and Chiyoda.
Very similar to the BB / CTL team, just with CAs... why? Two reasons:
With no BBs, the CV hime has one less chance to send your team back home! And also if the CAs and CTLs survive the BBhimes with minimal damage, it'll give a big door of opportunity to deliver the final kill.
As both CAs and CTLs are truly monsters in night battle. So they should be able to down right cripple the himes and possible kill
BOTH of them if all goes according to plan.
Otherwise, it increases the odds the flagship will fall.
Also I'm using a support fleet because that's practically required here to help soften up enemy force in the boss node for the final blow.
Now the only thing I can do now.. is hope all falls in my favor during the final kill because I'm going to need the perfect chance to deliver the final kill no matter what.
