Walkthrough

Upon spawning, players will find themselves among a group of allied players, along with Shchors, which is carrying the task force commander, Captain Akulov. When players begin heading North, they will encounter the first enemy attack wave. This wave will be traveling from North to South on the center line of the map. By defeating this wave of enemies, players will have captured the strategic area. From this point onward, players must defend against a second force which will attempt to recapture the strategic area. These ships will enter the combat area from the Northwest. After defeating these forces, players will encounter an enemy convoy which is escorting five Liberty transport ships. Players must sink the captor ships and escort the Liberty ships to the waypoint. Here, players will encounter two final attack waves. Players must repel the attacking ships while escorting the Liberty ships to safety.

First Wave

North: Aoba, Furutaka, Myoko, Ishizuchi, Shiratsuyu

Northwest: 2 x Random Cruiser, 2 x Random Battleship

Second Wave

Enemy Escort: 5 x Random Cruiser

If enemy escort apporaches the strategic area, 3x Battleship (Amagi, Fuso and Kongo) will enter the combat zone from the north.

Friendly Forces: 5 x Liberty Transport Ships

Third Wave

North: Ishizuchi, Kongo

Northeast: Fuso, 2 x Random Battleship, 3 x Random Cruiser, 1 x Random Destroyer

Additional Information

• Rescue the commander of the sinking Shchors: If the task force commander's ship is destroyed, Captain Akulov must be rescued before the ship fully sinks. This is accomplished by entering the visible circle shown around the sinking ship.
• Convoying ships: The enemy ships in the convoy (Kuma, Furutaka, Aoba, Myoko), including 3 x Battleship reinforcements will not be able to use torpedoes and AA guns.
