The BB Kai Ni comes over the Spring event. Link, in case you need it.

Taiyou confirmed, strong ASW confirmed. "Get fucked because you will only have her AFTER the map where you need her." seems to be also confirmed.

Well, what the devs did say is that ASW equipment will be important in the first half of the event (aka the first three maps). I'm not sure where the talk about Taiyou being that important comes from but they did say ships capable of ASW (like DDs) and properly equipped will do just well. As far as I'm concerned, it could be just alarmist talk.

Btw according from info gathered from the Grand Fleet Tour performance on 30 April, it seems that Taiyou has a cute voice like Ogura Yui. Whether her VA is Miss Ogura or not wasn't said though.

The weaponry looks like those on the kaibokan. Our first kaibokan girl, I think? And by Akira too, this should be good >=3

Going by clothes it could be another Kamikaze(minus the bracers), with a bit fantasy you could even say that she is holding the heck. However the cannons would be largely exaggarated then

Maybe one of the Seaplane tenders that participated?

That is if she is a Japanese ship, and not a chinese or russian one that wasn't announced (think back to Libeccio).
Going by the cannon it could also be a light cruiser - really hard :/

Oh yeah right those were annoucned too - do you have a specific one in mind though? The main turrets I could find are more high angled and open(to the back) than this one.

E2: Imho what makes this hard is whatever she is holding there, as the hull's form imho suggests its a rear end of a ship.

Someone mentioned Kamoi in the Bahamut forums. This could be her before she was re-modeled into a seaplane tender (note the squarish structure on her back and in the wiki photo of her during the 1920s).

Yeah as said it could be one of the seaplane tenders (or oiler if she is pre- seaplane tender)
The 5 inch gun would be really exaggarated in this case though, anf the bow far too wide.
If you take it as highly exaggarated you can even imagine the gun not being fully enclosed, which would fit the bill for a lot of the early ships.

Taiyou is potato:



Also, we will have 6 new ships for the event, and a 1 and a half hour delay on the maintenance as well.

Edit:

Fleet Oiler Kamoi
Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

Kamoi Voice Sample

Wonder if they'll make use of the fact that she was built in the US, specifically by the same shipyard that also created Saratoga (CV-3).

Also, her design is so Ainu inspired.

Edit 2:

Patchnotes include:

1. Coastal Defense Ship Kunashiri is a drop.
2. Kamoi can remodel between Fleet Oiler and Seaplane Tender forms without using blueprints.
3. Taiyou requires a Prototype Catapult for remodeling. One will be provided as an event reward.

Besides Kunashiri, the other kaibokan will be Shimshu, also a drop. Kunashiri is available from the 2nd map onwards, Shimshu and Kamoi from the 3rd map onwards.

I'm not sure if it's a typo or not but "Kasuga-maru" was used in the dev's tweet about Taiyou being the reward for clearing the 3rd map

There'll apparently be one more ship that should be available in tomorrow's EO's, Escort Ship Etorofu. Yes, they're introducing two Escort ship classes in this event.

Gangut looks a bit like Yadokari's work, no?

And the kaibokan's style also seems very familiar somehow. Where have I seen this, hmmmmm..... =/

If anyone's interested, folks at PTT has uploaded all the available new art for this event, including the new equips, all of Kamoi's art and that of the new Abyssal Escort Princess: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/KanColle/M.1493734412.A.349.html

If her Max FP stat is true, then she is an insult to Ise and Hyuuga
Same FP as their BB variant and 5 inch less.

Edit: Also FBB...

No way thats right... By that logic Yamato would be an FBB too. >>

I prefer to ask before sending anything on E1, is there any ship-locking on that map ?

You get a blue lock, according to the arrow on the mission screen.

I am still shocked about Gangut being a FBB - does that make Yamato a speedboat, Iowa a jet fighter and Shimakaze warp capable?
