==Combat Stages==
For most combat engagements, the battle will begin in day combat and follow the following set of stages. Several stages will not occur unless certain conditions are met. For Event maps, a [[Combined Fleet]] mechanic has been implemented which follows a modified combat order.

Requires any type of offensive plane (torpedo bombers and dive bombers for [[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]] and [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]], and seaplane bombers for [[:Category:Aviation Battleships|BBVs]], [[:Category:Aviation Cruisers|CAVs]], [[:Category:Seaplane Tenders|AVs]], and [[:Category:Submarines|SSVs]]) equipped as equipment on either side. If a side achieves Air Superiority or Supremacy in this stage, that side can use [[Combat#Artillery_Spotting_.28Post-Cap_Modifier.29|Artillery Spotting]].

'''Expedition Supporting Fire'''

Supporting Fire from Sortie [[Expedition#Support_Expeditions|Support Expeditions]]. This has an aspect of randomness and may not trigger.

'''Opening Torpedo Salvo'''

Participants: [[::Category:Submarines|SS]] over level 10, ships equipped with {{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}[[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] ([[:Category:Torpedo Cruisers|CLTs]], [[:Category:Seaplane Tenders|AVs]], [[::Category:Submarines|SS]]) and enemy [[Battleship Re-Class#Elite|Battleship Re-Class Elite]]. All participants fire their torpedoes simultaneously.

'''Engagement Form'''

The orientation of the allied and enemy fleets is displayed. This affects both fleets equally.
|-

'''Shelling, 1st Round (Range Order)'''

Participants: All ships except [[:Category:Submarines|SS]]. Firing order alternates between allied and enemy sides starting with allied. For each side, ships with higher range have priority. The firing order is composed of only ships that are able to take part and is set at the start of each shelling phase. Any ships sunk or incapacitated before their turn results in a lost turn for the side it is on.

'''Shelling, 2nd Round (Lineup Order)'''

Participants: All ships except [[:Category:Submarines|SS]]. Firing order alternates between sides, prioritizing ships at the top of the list.

Only occurs when either side has a [[:Category:Battleships|BB]], [[:Category:Aviation Battleships|BBV]], or the enemy has one of the special ship classes (鬼 ''Oni''/Ogress, 姫 ''Hime/''Princess) which acts like a BB/BBV: [[Destroyer Princess]] (駆逐棲姫) does not, while [[Battleship Princess]] (戦艦棲姫) does. The distinction between [[Enemy Vessel#Bosses|Bosses]] that do and those that do not trigger this phase is not always clear from their names.

'''Closing Torpedo Salvo'''

Participants: [[:Category:Destroyers|DDs]], [[:Category:Light Cruisers|CLs]], [[:Category:Torpedo Cruisers|CLTs]], [[:Category:Heavy Cruisers|CAs]], [[:Category:Aviation Cruisers|CAVs]], [[:Category:Submarines|SS]], [[Bismarck#Third Upgrade|Bismarck drei]], [[Battleship Re-Class]]

Like the opening torpedo salvo, all participants attack simultaneously.
|-
| [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Night_Combat Night Combat]
| Participants: All ships except [[:Category:Light Carriers|CVLs]] and [[:Category:Standard Carriers|CVs]].

Enemy [[Standard Carrier Wo-Class]] and [[Light Carrier Nu-Class]] of flagship level or higher can attack at night.

Must not be critically damaged to participate.

The first slot allied ship attacks, then the first slot enemy ship attacks, and so on. Similar to shelling phase, if a ship is sunk or critically damaged, the game will skip its turn.

For certain nodes and events, combat begins in the Night Combat stage, then proceeds to Day combat, if certain conditions are met.

==Formation Selection==

With 4 or more ships in a fleet, a fleet formation must be selected before combat. The selected formation affects ship damage and hit rate.

*The surface damage modifier applies to both shelling and torpedo attacks, but does not affect Aerial Combat or Anti-Submarine attacks.
*Diamond Formation is only selectable as a formation with 5+ ships.
*'''Flagship protection''' is the situation where a non-flagship ship protects the flagship from being damaged by receiving the attack instead.
*Line Ahead has the highest offensive power for surface combat. It is the default choice for encounters after the 3rd battle node to preserve firepower because of the remaining ammo penalty.
*Double Line is generally a good formation for heavy BB/CV fleets. There is a significant accuracy increase that benefits the typically lower accuracy carriers, while BB often still have enough firepower.
*Line Abreast is the best formation for anti-sub purposes.
*Echelon has not been tested extensively, but it is hypothesized to be a defensive formation for submarines.

==Detection==

*Fleet LOS affects Detection rate.
*Success increases fleet accuracy and evasion.
*Failure prevents participation of allied planes in the aerial combat phase.

*EFP: Enemy Fighter Power, FP: Fighter Power. Abbreviated to save space.
*This calculation does not take into account any anti-air weaponry equipped on ships. Carrier anti-air stat is also not considered.
*The percentage of planes shot down applies for both sides' respective outcomes, and is calculated per slot.
**For example, securing Air Superiority means allied planes shoot down up to 80% of enemy planes, and the enemy under Air Incapability will shoot down up to 40%.
**As this is applied per slot, 80% of one enemy bomber group can be shot down while a second has 0% shot down.
*[[Combat#Contact|Contact]] can be triggered by having at least 1 carrier scout plane, seaplane scout, and/or torpedo bomber equipped. It increases damage during the bombing phase depending on the accuracy bonus of the squad triggering Contact.
*Even if allied planes secure air supremacy, planes can still be lost (up to 10%), and the subsequent anti-air defense stage can eliminate more bombers.
*If the enemy fleet launches no fighters and any planes are launched from either side, the result defaults to Air Supremacy. If both sides launch no planes, then the rest of the battle is treated the same as if Air Parity was achieved.

=== Anti-Air Cut-In ===
[[File:Bandicam_2014-11-20_02-55-57-126.avi_snapshot_00.26_-2014.11.20_03.09.34-.jpg|thumb|An Anti-Air Cut-In]]
Certain equipment combinations will provide a chance for an Anti-Air Cut-In (AACI) during the aerial combat. When activated, the cut-in CG (shown on the right) would appear before engaging the enemy fighters, but does not appear to affect the resulting air control state (AS+, AS, Air Parity or Denial). Although there's currently no conclusion on how it's applied onto the [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Fleet_Anti-air_Defense Fleet Anti-air Defense formula], a general consensus suggests the effectiveness scales with the AA stat ({{AA}}) of the ship triggering it .

'''Requirement:'''
* One of the following sets:
** Heavy main gun{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}, Type 3 Shell {{GreenAmmo}}, AA fire director {{AntiAircraftFireDirector}}
*** Can be supplemented with an AA RADAR {{Radar}}
** High-angle mount (main or secondary) {{GreenGunDP}}, AA fire director {{AntiAircraftFireDirector}}
*** Can be supplemented with an AA RADAR {{Radar}}
** [[10cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director]] , AA RADAR {{Radar}}
*** Can be supplemented with a second 10cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director
* Akizuki has a built-in AA fire director, which allows her to trigger AACI without an AA fire director with the following setups
** High-angle mount (any) {{GreenGunDP}} plus either or both:
*** RADAR (any kind) {{Radar}}
*** High-angle mount (any) {{GreenGunDP}}
'''Effect''':
* Provide an AoE blast on all the incoming enemy '''bombers''', from the ship who is triggering it.'' ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Reikyu/A_brief_look_at_AA_defense_and_AA_cut-in_performance source 1], [http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-41.html 2])''
'''Trigger chance''':
* AA stat ({{AA}}) of the ship performing the cut-in (equipment bonuses included) affects trigger rate. The correlation seems to be about +0.4% trigger rate for every point of AA. ''([http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-43.html source 1], [http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-41.html 2])''
* Luck stat does not affect the trigger rate significantly. ''([http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-40.html source])''
* Air radar on CA does not increase the trigger chance on a large scale.'' ([http://kankoregouchin.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-41.html source], require further verification)''
** It's currently unknown what (if any) innate trigger rate differences there are between other equipment setups.
With an AA Cut-In from a ship with high AA stat ({{AA}}), it is possible to '''obliterate all incoming bombers''' before they inflict any damage, and even prevent opposing carriers from shelling since they have 0 bombers left.''' In PVP Exercises, your opponent could do AA Cut-In on your bombers, but the animation is not shown.'''

There are [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#comm-164478 reports] that enemy ships in map [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/World_6:_%E4%B8%AD%E9%83%A8%E6%B5%B7%E5%9F%9F#6-2 6-2] ''might'' be capable of doing AACI. Other than that, there is currently no enemy ship capable to blast all your bombers with AA weapons.

===Fleet Anti-air Defense===
Each enemy bomber slot is assigned at random to a defending ship. Those ships then, for each assigned enemy slot, have an approximately 50% chance to shoot down enemy planes. The number of planes shot down is given by the equations below:

<center>
<math>\text{Shot Down} = \text{Floor((Ship AA } + \text{Floor(Fleet Anti-air} \times \text{Formation Modifier))} \times 0.2125\text{)}</math> <math>\text{Fleet Anti-air} = \text{Floor(} \sum^\text{All slots}\text{Equipment AA Bonus} \times \text{Equipment Modifier)}</math>
</center>
The "Fleet Anti-Air" bonus is the sum of every equipment slot of every ship in the fleet (including the defending ship).

*Any equipment that gives an anti-air bonus will contribute to shooting down enemy bombers.
*The ship chosen to defend against bombers is not necessarily the ship targeted by that slot.
*The ship selected to defend is not necessarily the target of the bomber. Any allied ship, including submarines, may be chosen to defend against bombers.
*The forward sliding and machine gun animations seem to have no correlation with the calculations.
*These calculations only apply for the allied fleet's anti-air defense; enemy fleets seem to use a different formula.

==Opening Stages==
The Opening Stages of combat proceed in order with the Supporting Expedition effect, the Opening Torpedo salvo, then the display of the engagement form
*In [[World 5]] and Event Maps, the Sortie fleet can receive a salvo of Support fire from fleets deployed on [[Expedition#Support_Expeditions|Support Expeditions]]. The type of supporting fire depends on the composition of the expedition fleet.
*The Opening Torpedo Salvo is fired by Submarines over level 10, ships with the {{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}[[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] ([[:Category:Torpedo Cruisers|CLTs]], [[:Category:Seaplane Tenders|AVs]], [[::Category:Submarines|SS]]) equipped, and the Enemy [[Battleship Re-Class]].
**Torpedoes are fired from all ships simultaneously, and accuracy is affected by the selected Formation type.
*The Opening stages finish with the display of the Engagement form, the orientation of the two fleets.

*Please note that all engagement forms '''affect both sides equally''', including crossing the T (Advantage or Disadvantage).
* Night battle and aerial combat are not affected by engagement forms. Torpedo salvos ''are'' affected by engagement forms.
*Equipping a {{Template:YellowPlane}}[[Saiun]] effectively makes what would have been Crossing the T (Disadvantage) become Head-on Engagement.
*It is speculated that the Engagement form also impacts accuracy.

==Day Combat==
*Day Combat consists of up to 3 phases: 1st Shelling, 2nd Shelling, Closing Torpedo
*During the first shelling stage, the order of fire is determined by the ship's maximum range.
**Ships are arranged in order from Very Long → Long → Medium → Short → Very Short range.
**The shelling order alternates from allied ships to enemy ships if able. If two ships on the same side have the same range, the ship that attacks first from between them is chosen randomly.
*The second shelling phase moves from the top to the bottom of the combat line.
**Ships unable to attack at all in the shelling phase (''i.e.'' submarines) will be skipped, but those normally able to attack but rendered unable to (''e.g.'' damaged carriers) will still take actionless turns.
*CVLs and CVs must be in good or lightly damaged condition in order to participate in shelling phases, with the exception of Armored Aircraft Carriers (''e.g.'' [[Taihou]]) who can still attack while moderately damaged.
* The Closing Torpedo salvo is fired by all SS(V), DD, CL(T), CA(V), AV, [[Bismarck|Bismarck drei]], and the enemy [[Battleship Re-Class]].
** Torpedoes are fired from all ships simultaneously, and accuracy is affected by the selected Formation type.
** Ships must not be moderately or heavily damaged to participate.

==Night Combat==
*Night battle damage depends on both the Firepower and Torpedo stats for attack power. Consequently, DDs, CLs, CLTs and CAs have drastically increased strength at night.
*Any vessel at night must not have taken more than moderate (orange) damage before attacking in order to participate in night battle.
*Certain combinations of weapon equipment ([[List of Main Guns by stats|Main Guns]], [[List of Secondary Guns by stats|Secondary Guns]], [[List of Torpedoes by stats|Torpedoes]]) will cause Cut-In or Double Attacks at night, greatly increasing accuracy and/or firepower
**Auxiliary equipment (e.g [[List of Radars by stats|RADAR]], [[List of Anti-Submarine Equipment by stats|SONAR]], [[List of Anti-Submarine Equipment by stats|Depth Charges]], Searchlights, Turbines, Special ammunition, [[List of Anti-Air Guns by stats|Pure AA Equipment]], Torpedo Bulges, and [[Type A Ko-hyoteki|Midget-subs]]) will not affect the combination.
*If night combat nodes are anticipated, it can be very helpful to utilize specialized night battle equipment such as [[Star Shell]]s and [[Searchlight]]. [[Type 98 Recon Seaplane (Night Scout)]] is also an option.
* Evasion of submarines are greatly increased in regular Night Battles, so they cannot take more than scratch damage. In battles starting at night and [[Combined Fleet]] sorties, submarines do not get the Evasion boost, so they will take damage as normal.
*Formation damage modifiers and Engagement Form damage modifiers do not apply in Night Battle (i.e. they are always 100%).
**As an exception, in nodes that begin with Night Battle and in [[Combined Fleet]] Night Battle, Formation and Engagement Form anti-sub damage modifiers apply.
***The Engagement Form is not explicitly shown in Night Battle nodes.

===Pre-Cap Modifiers===
These are the factors directly applied to your ship's attack power.
* [[Combat#Formation Selection|Formation Modifier]] (see "Damage modifier")
* [[Combat#Engagement Form Modifier|Engagement Modifier]]
* [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Ship.27s_Health_Modifier Health Modifier]

* [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Night_Special_Attack_Modifier_.28Cut-In_and_Double_Attack.29 Night Special Attack Modifier]
Effects from the modifiers are multiplied cumulatively.

Applied on bombers during the opening air strike. These are the random numbers multiplied to the plane's bombing attack power.

==== Night Special Attack Modifier ====
[[File:night_cut_in.png|thumb|An example of a cut-in]]
[http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Night_Battle_Special_Attacks Certain Equipment setups] have a chance to trigger special attacks at night, giving boost to both attack power and accuracy. This stage is usually the most rewarding / dangerous because both sides have drastically increased attack power.

The ship must be able to participate in the night battle in order to trigger the special attacks.

===Attack Power Cap===
Applies after the pre-cap modifiers. This is a '''soft limit''' on your effective attack power.

Condition: If your pre-cap attack power exceeds:
* '''150 '''for Day Battle
* '''300 '''for Night Battle
* '''100 '''for Anti-sub attacks
The Attack Power Cap will be activated, nerfing the effectiveness of your pre-cap attack power. The calculation is:

<math>\text {Attack Power After Caps} = x + \sqrt {\text {Pre Caps Attack Power} - x}</math>, Where x represents the attack power cap.

Daytime Attack Cap (150) often makes it important to utilize [[Combat#Artillery_Spotting|Artillery Spotting]] since they boost your attack power '''after the cap''', [[Combat#Night Combat|Night Combat]] can be very dangerous and/or rewarding due to having a very high cap (300) and the inclusion of torpedo to firepower for the basic attack power calculation.

===Post-Cap Modifiers===
In damage calculation, Post-cap modifiers apply''''' after the cap''''', but '''''before enemy armor reduction'''''. Thus they are very effective approach to boost your damage output (esp. against heavy armor enemies).

Currently, the post-cap modifiers are from:
* [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Artillery_Spotting Artillery Spotting] (aka. Day time special attacks)
* [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Critical_Modifier Critical Damage]
* [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Contact Contact] (Opening air strike)

==== Artillery Spotting ====
[http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Day_Battle_Special_Attacks_.28Artillery_Spotting.29 Certain equipment setups] provide a chance to trigger special attacks during day battle, giving boost to both attack power and accuracy. The damage modifiers are applied after the cap (150), thus very effective against heavy armor targets. Note that the ship requires at least 1 seaplane on board to perform Artillery Spotting.

====Critical Modifier====
Most forms of attack (Torpedo, Shelling, Anti-Submarine, Preemptive Bombing) have a chance to crit the target. The damage modifier applies after the cap.
{| class="article-table" style="height: 100px; width: 200px;" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"
|-
! scope="col" style="text-align:center;" |Attack Type

|-
| Normal Attack
| style="text-align:center;" |100%
|-
| Critical Hit
| style="text-align:center;" |150%
|}
It should be noted that the '''critical message always appears when damage dealt is greater than or equal to 40,''' regardless of whether the 150% modifier was applied or not. On the other hand, the critical message will never appear when damage dealt is less than or equal to 14, even if the 150% modifier was applied.

====Contact====
*Contact takes place during the Aerial Combat phase. It increases bombing damage for all allied bombers.
*When successful, an image of the squadron performing contact is shown in the opposing fleet's formation indicator, with the text "触接中".
*Trigger conditions:
**More air control than Air Denial
**At least one carrier scout plane, seaplane scout, or torpedo bomber equipped.
***Seaplane bombers, [[Type 3 Spotter/Liaison (ASW)|Type 3 Spotter]], and [[Ka-type_Observation_Autogyro|Ka-type Autogyros]] cannot perform contact.
**It's thought that each carrier scout plane, seaplane scout, and/or torpedo bomber slot equipped is given a chance to trigger contact. Once successful, the bonus applied is chosen at random with weighting from all eligible equipped planes.
*Different types of planes have different trigger rates. They are roughly estimated as (if only one is equipped):
{| class="article-table" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"

|-
| Seaplane Scout
| style="text-align:center;" |~20%
|-
| Carrier Scout
| style="text-align:center;" |~50%
|}
====='''Contact Damage Modifier'''=====
*The damage increase depends on the +accuracy bonus {{Template:Hit}} of the squadron performing contact.
{| class="article-table" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"
|-
! scope="col" style="text-align:center;" |Accuracy Bonus

| style="text-align:center;" |117%
|-
| style="text-align:center;" | +3
| style="text-align:center;" |120%
|}

====='''Notes'''=====
*{{Template:YellowPlane}}[[Type_2_Recon_Aircraft|Type 2 Recon Aircraft]] is useful in the case that the bombing damage bonus is desired while not removing the chance for T-disadvantage, due to its high trigger rate.
*With contact, the maximum attack power of bombing (before defense, critical and ammo) is around 180. With some luck, it's possible to sink even Ru-class Flagships (Armor = 99) in one strike without a critical.

===Remaining Ammo Modifier===

*In general, two bars of {{Ammo}} will be used in Day Battle for all ships, regardless of whether they attack or not.
*The Remaining Ammo Modifier affects all phases, including the opening Aerial Combat Phase.
*When entering night battle, the Remaining Ammo Modifier on a vessel remains same as the previous day battle. One bar of {{Ammo}} is used for all ships in Night Battle, regardless of whether they attack or not.
*Because most battles will consume 2 bars of ammunition each, try to engage the boss before the 5th battle, or else achieving victory becomes unlikely (but not impossible).
*When attempting to defeat boss nodes, avoid night battles and whirlpools on the way.
**Whirlpools will decrease either {{Fuel}} or {{Ammo}} bars of your sorted fleet, which can be disadvantageous in long sorties. Equipping one or more ships with RADAR can help reduce losses taken from these.
*Submarine-only nodes on limited-time event maps do not consume ammo in Day or Night Battle.

=== Day Battle Special Attacks (Artillery Spotting) ===
Artillery spotting allows your ship with seaplanes to double attack (DA) and cut-in (CI) during day battle.

'''Requirement'''
*[[File:KanColle-140425-17422431.png|thumb|Cut-in Type Observed Fire using 1Main 1Sec & Type 91 AP shell]]Air superiority (AS) or greater achieved in aerial combat phase

*[[File:KanColle-140425-16133343.png|thumb|Cut-in Type Mixed Attack Observed Fire with 2 Main & Type 91 AP Shell.]]These are the basic setups used in the game. You don't need to exactly follow the placement (1st slot = main, 3rd slot = seaplane, etc) as long as those equipment are placed on the same ship.
* Any other setup variation will NOT change the attack mode or damage modifier. Feel free to add another auxiliary equipment when possible.
* Mixed Attacks provide chances for both day battle DA and CI.
* When either CI or DA is not triggered by chance, the ship will just do a normal single attack, dealing 100% damage.
* The enemy is capable of doing Artillery Spotting on your fleet, both DA & CI.
* For more info on the Day Special Attack mechanics, you may visit page [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Artillery_Spotting Artillery Spotting].

'''Trigger Chance of Artillery Spotting'''
* The flagship has ~15% higher chance in triggering Artillery Spotting.
* Losing Air Supremacy (AS+) to Air Superiority (AS) will lower the trigger chances by ~12%. Higher penalty for mixed attack.
* Higher fleet total LoS (line of sight) will slightly increase the chances, around 6% ~ 10% per 100 additional FLoS. Notice that FLoS equals to the sum of LoS stats from all the ships in your fleet, and no special formula is used to calculate them.
* Equipment set up will affect the chances (see the table above)
* Note that in pvp, it is possible to gain AS+ without any fighter power while your opponent only uses bombers (i.e. zero fighter power) to gain AS.

===Night Battle Special Attacks===
Night battle special attacks allow your ship to double attack (DA) and cut-in (CI) at night. These special attacks are less demanding on the conditions, but more reliable and powerful than artillery spotting in the day.

'''Requirement'''
* Not in heavily damaged (大破) state
* Certain equipment setup (see below)

* When your set up fulfills the prerequisite for multiple attack modes, the one closer to the bottom of the list will be considered.
* If two simultaneous / consecutive attacks are made, the total damage is displayed together but the Damage Cap (and Enemy Armor reduction) is applied separately to each attack.
* When either DA or CI is not triggered by chance, the ship will just do a normal single attack.

'''Night Double Attack Chance'''

Has a very high (~99%) and relatively consistent activation chance ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/How_Formation_Affects_Night_Battle_Performances_%28by_Kuubowokyuu%29#Ii_-_DA_Chance_of_Your_Fleet_.26_CI_Chance_of_the_Enemies source]). Activation rate decreases with damage states (source required), but is not dependent on luck. This typically results in more consistent and higher average damage than cut-in setup for ships with normal luck values.

'''Night Cut-in chance:'''

<center><math>(\text{Luck} + \text{Placement Modifier} + \text{Health Modifier} + \text{Searchlight Modifier} ) \% </math></center>

* '''Diminishing returns (or a soft-cap) on luck over 50 for torpedo cut-ins.''' ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#I_-_Luck.2C_Placement_.26_Night_Battle_Cut-In_Chances source 1],[http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#II_-_Searchlight_.26_Cut-In_Chances 2])
* Therefore, the torpedo CI chance for Yukikaze ''(60 luck)'' would be around the same level as Shigure ''(50 luck).''
* '''Diminishing returns (or a soft-cap) on luck over 40 for three gun cut-ins.''' (require further verification)
* Therefore, ships with high luck will suffer from 5~10% lower cut-in chances when using the 3 gun cut-in setup. ([http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Homuhomu123/Trigger_Rates_of_Night_Battle_Cut-In#V_-_Health_State_.26_Cut-In_Chances source])
* Due to diminishing returns, the actual cut-in chance for any particular ship will '''not''' reach 100%'''. '''

'''Anti-Sub Warfare'''

Any enemy submarines will force Destroyers and Light Cruisers to target them. Cut-In and Double Attacks are ignored. In normal Night Battles, ASW damage is scratch damage only. In battles starting at night, Formation Modifiers apply.

=== Common Setups ===
* Common ship equipment setups and their purpose
* '''Destroyers'''
** As destroyers do not have the ability to field seaplanes, have low firepower but high torpedo stats, and few equipment slots, their use in fleets is generally to meet composition requirements. Their common setups focus on Anti-Sub Warfare, Night Torpedo, or Fleet Anti-Air Support
** A Mixture of [[List of Anti-Submarine Equipment by stats|SONAR and Depth Charges]] ({{Template:Sonar}}{{Template:DepthCharge}}) make your destroyers effective, accurate sub killers when enemy fleets contain Submarines.
** On destroyers with high luck ([[Ayanami]], [[Shigure]], [[Yukikaze]]), 2 or 3 pieces of [[List of Torpedoes by stats|Torpedo Equipment]] ({{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}) will often trigger a potent Torpedo Cut-In attack in Night Battle.
** When facing maps with many enemy fleets with carriers, destroyers can provide a considerable amount of fleet AA support using [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Main_Guns_by_stats#Light_Guns high-angle mounts] {{Template:GreenGunDP}} and [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Anti-Air_Cut-In anti-air cut-in] setups to reduce incoming bomber damage.
* '''Light Cruisers'''
** Light Cruisers gain access to the Medium size Main guns to buff their firepower as well as seaplanes (with a few exceptions with regards to seaplanes, those being CLTs, Isuzu Kai Ni, Yuubari and both of the Tenryuu class), making Artillery Spotting setups feasible and effective against moderately armored enemy vessels.
** For light cruisers facing enemy fleets, a setup with 2 Main guns and a Seaplane ({{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) offers a potent double attack in both daytime Artillery Spotting and Night Battle.
** For fleets without air power, one [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Main_Guns_by_stats#Medium_Guns medium main gun] and two [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/15.5cm_Triple_Gun_Mount_(Secondary) 15.5cm Triple Gun Mounts] ({{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:YellowGun}}{{Template:YellowGun}}) will maximize firepower while maintaining double attacks in Night Battle
** The special class of the Torpedo Cruisers deserves some mention here: their specialty lies in their torpedoes and should almost always be equipped with a {{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}[[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] (to enable opening torpedo strikes). To diversify their damage output, typically two medium main guns and/or [http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/15.5cm_Triple_Gun_Mount_(Secondary) 15.5cm Triple Gun Mounts] are equipped to increase shelling damage and enable Night Battle Double Attacks ({{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:YellowGun}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}).
*** Before a Torpedo Cruiser's final remodel, due to limited slots it's advisable to use [[Type A Ko-hyoteki]] and a torpedo ({{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}) to make the most of their preemptive attack.
* '''Heavy Cruisers'''
** Heavy Cruisers see the introduction of 4 slot setups after remodeling and all of them feature the ability to launch seaplanes for artillery spotting. While they are still limited to the Medium main guns, their higher firepower and armor can make them solid combatants when Battleships are unavailable or overkill.
** The go-to setup for most situations will be the 2 main guns, RADAR, seaplane setup ({{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:Radar}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) which provides day and night double attack potential.
** Certain Event bosses take additional damage when a ship is equipped with [[Type 3 Shell]]s. As heavy cruisers have access to these, a Heavy Cruiser may find swapping the RADAR for a [[Type 3 Shell]] ({{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:GreenAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) to be effective against such targets (see [[Airfield Princess]]).
** In the case of a battle occurring with Night Battle first, one option is to replace the RADAR and seaplane with two torpedoes {{RedGunMedium}}{{RedGunMedium}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}{{Template:TorpedoWeapon}}, which will lose the day battle special attacks but give the chance for powerful two-torpedo cut-in attacks.
* '''Battleships'''
** Battleships feature a selection of Heavy Main Guns and massive resulting firepower in addition to the potent Armor Piercing shells which can cause brutal critical hits. Setups for battleships are similar to those of heavy cruisers, with one notable addition.
** The Armor Piercing Shells that battleships have access to allows for the highly effective 2 Main gun, AP Shell, Seaplane setup ({{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) which has a more effective Artillery Spotting Cut-In, while providing better stats than secondary guns.
** Note: Official tweets state that overuse of cannons larger than what a BB is meant for will make it "overweight" and incur a "minor" accuracy penalty. (''I.e.'' Too many 46cm or even 41cm cannons on Fast Battleships such as Kongou-class and Bismarck.)
** As with Heavy Cruisers, the [[Type 3 Shell]] setup ({{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:RedGunHeavy}}{{Template:GreenAmmo}}{{Template:Seaplane}}) is effective against installation-type/land base enemies.
* '''Carriers'''
** Planes. Enough Fighters to achieve Air Superiority or Supremacy, fill out with Torpedo Bombers on larger slots for preemptive bombing damage and/or Dive Bombers on smaller slots for shelling damage.
** Torpedo Bombers and Dive Bombers are roughly equivalent to each other. While Torpedo Bombers have the advantage in the preemptive aerial bombing, their damage are dependent on number of surviving planes, making air superiority very important for them. In cases where Air Superiority is not feasible, using more Dive Bombers may prove more effective.
** It is possible to equip [[List of Secondary Guns by stats|Secondary Guns]] like the [[15.5cm Triple Gun Mount (Secondary)|15.5cm Triple Gun Mount]] or the special [[Skilled Carrier-based Aircraft Maintenance Personnel|SCAMP]] to increase the carrier's range and put it higher in the Range Order shelling phase, which can be very useful for prioritizing the CV(L) damage when in a DD heavy fleet.
** To save bauxite (especially in exercises against other fleets), a combination of two [[15.5cm Triple Gun Mount (Secondary)|15.5cm Triple Gun Mount]] and/or [[Skilled Carrier-based Aircraft Maintenance Personnel|SCAMP]] with a [[Saiun]] and a single bomber in the 4th slot can allow powerful shelling attacks at the cost of opening airstrike potency ({{Template:YellowGun}}{{Template:YellowGun}}{{YellowPlane}}{{RedPlane}}).

==Notes==
* She received her second upgrade on [http://pastebin.com/txwvdFfC 23/04/2014], together with Tone & Chikuma.
* She received third upgrade on [[Thread:120420|26/09/2014]]
** Aside from an overall stat boost, she became the only allied battleship able to launch torpedoes in-game.
** [[Battleship Re-Class]] is the first battleship overall that can launch torpedoes in-game.
{{clear}}

==Trivia==
* She was sunk on her first operation on May 27, 1941 in the North Atlantic following incapacitating damage.
* She was responsible for sinking the world's largest battlecruiser, the British [[Wikipedia:HMS Hood (51)|HMS Hood (51)]].
* She & her sister ''Tirpitz'' were the largest ever built by Nazi Germany & any European power.
** Her torpedo tubes are actually cribbed from ''Tirpitz'', which was equipped with torpedoes.
* She's named after the German chancellor, [[Wikipedia:Otto von Bismarck|Otto von Bismarck]].
* Her wreck was discovered in 1989 by [[wikipedia:Robert Ballard|Dr. Robert Ballard]].
* Her first remodel art is based on her Baltic camouflage applied partway through combat readiness training at Kiel Bay. Her second remodel art represents her repainting before departing Norway & into the Atlantic during ''[[Wikipedia:Operation Rheinübung|Operation Rheinübung]]''.
* 改 means "remodelled" (for the first time), 改二 means "remodelled a second time", etcetera. However, German ships use ''Zwei'' (two) & ''Drei'' (three) for 改二 & 改三, respectively, omitting the 改.

Summer 2014 Event

2014-08-10T01:52:30Z

Jifaru: /* Combined Fleet Mechanics */ Source: Cleared E-5

__NOWYSIWYG__
[[File:bn_140808_on.jpg]]

The Summer 2014 event has started on August 8th and is scheduled to last for about 20 days.

==Map Details==
[[File:AL_badge.jpg|thumb|Ships with AL badge]]
[[File:MI_sticker.jpg|thumb|Ships with MI badge]]
===Introduction===
* AL is designed to be completable by newer players.
** Low level TTK will encounter easier enemies, but need more number of time to sink boss (likely 9-10 time compare to high level TTK need to sink boss only 6 time).
* This event is "Two-front war". Ships that were sent on AL-operation area (E-1 and E-2), cannot join sorties on MI-operation area (E-3 onwards).
** Ships who have participated in AL cannot participate in MI.
** Ships who have participated in AL or MI cannot participate in support expeditions
** Equipment can be shared across ships
** Advice is to have high-leveled CV with solid escort ships.
* In order to send fleets to the event, you must have '''5 free ship spaces''' and '''20 free equipment spaces'''.
* All maps bosses HP-based. When you damage a boss, even when not killing it, the gauge will decrease accordingly.
** The boss ship must be sunk in the end of the gauge to clear the map. Damaging it to zero gauge but not sinking the boss (top ship of enemy fleet) will not clear it yet.
* There is no boss gauge health regeneration.

===Combined Fleet Mechanics===
* In Midway, you need to sortie two fleets at the same time.
** The first (main) fleet is your typical fleet with the number 1. You need to put in a minimum of 2 CV(up to a maximum of 4) and is allowed to put in a maximum of 2 Heavy Ships. The last 2 slots can be either Light Ships or CVs only.
** The second (escort) fleet is your fleet number 2 and needs 1 CL. You can add up to 2 CA/CAVs and from 3 to 5 DD.
[[File:Ss_(2014-08-09_at_04.56.13).jpg|thumb|MI formations]]
* Special formations quick explanation:
** Top left is an ASW formation
** Top right (Alert) appears to increase evasion and shelling power of the second fleet.
** Bottom left (Diamond) increases Anti-Air defense.
** Bottom right greatly increases the evasion and torpedo accuracy of your second fleet while preserving the shelling accuracy of the first fleet. Recommended for bosses.

|branching =
All posted branching rules, as of posting, are VERY tentative. Use at your own risk. ( 2 CVL required, northern route requires CV(?), no more than 2 Fast BB)
* Having more than two CVL/CV in total will take you to A-C-F.
*having at least one SS will take you to northern route
* 1x Fast BB, 2 CA, CL, 2 CVL takes southern route to boss
* 1x Fast BB, 3 CA, 2 CVL takes southern route to boss
* 2x Fast BB, CA, DD, 2 CVL takes southern route to boss
* 2x CA, DD, Fast BB, 2 CVL takes southern route to boss
* CA, DD, CL, BBV, 2 CVL takes southern route to boss
* 2x CA, 2x BBV, 2x CVL takes southern route to boss
* 4x CA, 2x CVL takes southern route to boss
* 2x CA, 2x DD, 2x CVL takes northern route to boss
* 2x CAV, CL, DD, 2x CVL takes southern route to boss
* CL, BBV, DD, CVL, CV, DD takes southern route to boss
* CL, CVL, CAV, CA, 2x BBV takes southern route to boss
* BB, Fast BB, CA, DD, CV, CVL takes southern route to boss
* Fast BB, 3x CA, CV, DD takes southern route to boss
* There is an as-of-yet unknown LoS requirement for reaching the boss node, consider equipping more than you think is necessary to avoid unpleasant surprises.

|tips =
* H node is a night battle with two possible fleet formations and only one ship is equipped for cut-in attacks, making night battle equipment (Other than the Type 98 Recon Seaplane (Night Scout)) ineffective.
* A node has a submarine, consider equipping a ship with ASW equipment to attempt sinking it before your other ships waste attacks on it.
* If you decide for northern route, have at least 150 FP for air superiority and stock some night battle equipment for the B node.

* 2x CVL, 2x CA, 1x CL, 1x BBV leads to node A.
* 2x CA/CAV, 2x DD, 2x CVL will go to C, then G. With enough LOS (exact requirement not know) it should always go G to E after that and then E to K.
* 2x BBV, CA, CAV, CVL, CL will go to A,B,D,E,K. Equipment LOS was 60, total LOS was 287, HQ lvl 66.
|tips =
* The [[Northern Princess]] is an installation-type and is vulnerable to [[Type 3 Shell]]s.
* The [[Northern Princess]] evolves into a tougher form for the final battle.
* The [[Northern Princess]] is immune to torpedoes, including torpedo bombers.
* During shelling phase, dive bombers can't attack [[Northern Princess]] but torpedo bombers can. Don't confuse with aerial phase that torpedo bombers can't attack her.
* E node has two completely different fleets, one has surface ships while the other is composed of submarines.
* At least in northern rute, line abreast works fine in all pre-boss nodes.
* Certain LoS required to reach node E from G and E to K.
* If having trouble clearing the boss, equip CA(V) With sanshiki instead of Radar + Seaplane or Radar + Radar. Using this setup, (assuming 2DD 2CA(V) 2 CVL) stack radars on one of the DD's instead to compensate for lost LOS. This will make that one DD useless, but your CA(V)'s will wreck the boss at night battle.
