Isn't it implied that the America fleet are those of abyssal fleet?

That's debatable because as far as I know none of the ships are 1-1 American ships. Though there certain hints thrown out there that that might be the case like the weapons Aircraft Carrier Princess uses for example, but note its not completely consistent. Hell some like Airfield Princess seem to moreso represent American bases rather than ships.

Its also heavily implied sunken fleetgirls are Abyssals.

Is it? I remember the dev keeps avoiding that question whenever someone asked. They say to leave it to fan's imagination.

The only thing confirmed, if I remember correctly, is how modernization works.

Wait, how does it work? Are you cutting up girls to pieces and bolting them onto other girls?

And someone explain to me what Midway-hime and Akagi have in common. Because I don't see it.

I quife likr the theory and it would be brutal if they would build an anime about that and the fact that you can just build new girls of the same type.

This is one of the new Abyssal units from the most recent event based on the attack on Truk.

...while escorting damaged light cruiser Agano out of Truk, Caroline Islands, the Japanese base was raided by US carrier aircraft. The aircraft found and attacked Naka 65 kilometers from the port, hitting her with one torpedo and one bomb, breaking her in two.

Combined style of two ships that sunk in the operation. Also, having no legs would fit as the anthropomorphized equivalent of a ship being broken in half.

That is a very fitting and likely theory, but not a confirmation.

Is Akashi a guaranteed drop in 2-5 or did I just get lucky?

I'm wondering if it's worth using her to repair overnight.

You got lucky.

If you don't have any repair docks left, it's good for repairing scratch damage before you go to sleep or something. Either way costs resources and time.

More importantly, you now have access to equipment upgrades.

Wow, crazy. I ain't complaining... and yeah, I saw the repair effect happen by accident. Left the computer and noticed that my ships were repaired and I had no idea why. I wonder if her repairs count toward the daily repair quest?

I hate you firehawk you pick on me about boatgirls in IRC and then get fucking lucky all the time in the game. :(

It's Narag that picks on you. lol
And yeah, even though I haven't been able to get Kaga, it's been crazy how lucky I've been for someone who has been playing for 3 weeks.

Then again, I'm trying to get one of those common destroyers to drop (Akakstuki iirc) in order to finish a quest, and grinding 1-1 over and over again has netted me nada, so who knows. Also I can't get any submarines. lol

I've gotten dozens of Akatsuki just for running 2-3.

They don't count for the quest. Also the number of ships you can repair depend on the number of Ship Repair Facilities equipped to Akashi. She gets another one at kai.

The recent events were teasing the idea of somekind of dualism between shipgirls and Abyss.

The Vita game is just the browser game?

Oh yeah, watching some people do LSC on Youtube... how do people get 100k of resources? Do they just do expeditions and never sortie? Or do they spend lots and lots of DMM bucks?

Mostly just daily quests and nonstop expedition. You could check the table here for the best hourly gain from expedition.

Also, grinding 3-2 and 2-3 so your resource spending is at minimum.

I feel like I'm burning my resources trying to build better equipment now. I guess for people who have played a long time, they never actually need to spend any resources so it can just pile up for LSC.

I really want to try for a Taihou just for shiggles, but losing 5k bauxite is scary to think about.

with optimal expedition nonstop, you can reach 100k+ in less than 2 month, plus map resource sortieing using SS can cut the time needed.

That seems like a long term goal for me. At least I have all the BBs and most of the CVs except the Crane sisters. I'll probably think about LSC once I get Reppuus and 46cms on all my CVs and BBs.
