| | + | E1 is a single fleet, two-phase map consisting of one transport and one boss phase. |
| | + | * 2 [[LBAS]] are available on this map: |
| | + | ** Only 1 can be set on '''Sortie''', the other being limited to '''Defense''', |
| | + | * This map uses 2 locks: |
| | + | ** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 1.png|40px]] '''104th Squadron''', Starting point 1 (reused in E-3) |
| | + | ** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 2.png|40px]] '''1st Fleet''', Starting point 2 (reused in E-2) |
| | + | |
| | + | The use of {{IconText|{{Aviation Personnel}}|AGDP}} {{EquipmentLink|Arctic Gear & Deck Personnel|text=AGDP}} on CV(B/L), {{Class|Ise|Kai Ni}}, and [[Akitsu Maru Kai]], is required to sortie these ships on the map. |
