Got the event ships, need to do 40 more D2 clears to get enough points for the shop stuff I want, hopefully I get enough DD gun BPs from that so so I don't have to do any extra farming even if it is nice for PR exp.

Submarine Mechanics Patch!
- "Transport Raid" missions. Twice per week, basically an expanded version of the U-556 minigame.
- Sub hunting ranges can now be manually adjusted (with a fuel cost). Sub fleets can be moved manually as well.
- Limited Construction with the new subs. SR U-101 and I-168, Elite U-552, I-25 and I-56.
- "Cyberspace" dorm set.

Well after 88k oil since the started I got 15 gold DD blueprints to drop. I also got 118 purple blueprints, got my commander level from 94 to almost 96, finished the exp grind for Roon who I started a couple days before the event, and my last PR ship Ibuki is already a little over 1/5 done with her exp grind.

My building luck has been awful this event. At least 3-pulls each night plus around three or four 10-pulls and still no Surcouf or Massachusetts.
That said, I haven't engaged much with the event on the whole - I've barely done the hardmode battles and I'm running out of dock space (Chapter 10 is a jerk and I've no money to spare for gems).
This is a dumb question, but are any of the super-rare weapon plans from the Iris event currency store worth getting? I went ahead and got the SR-ranked ship because, well, that seemed obvious even if I wasn't particularly aspiring to collect her.

The DD gun is definitely worth it. Seems to surpass the Twin Mk12 as best-in-slot for general use. The fifteen BPs you can get from the shop are exactly enough to build one gun and you can farm more from D2.
The BB gun's awesome for Jean Bart and bottom tier for just about everyone else.

That said, I haven't engaged much with the event on the whole - I've barely done the hardmode battles and I'm running out of dock space (Chapter 10 is a jerk and I've no money to spare for gems).
I actually had to break down on this event and spend money for more dock space. I was at 250 and it just wasn't enough. I was pretty lucky with the event ships. I finally got Dunkerque a day or 2 after posting she was the only one I was missing. Once I got her, I just went back to doing Light 3-pulls for the currency. I also was kind of lax on the event stages with no motivation, but I did finally finishing clearing D3 today. I think I'm evented out at the moment.
I just get the 30 sub 500 gems, 30k gold, 6k oil, and 30 cubes for $8 minus whatever is on my account from doing Google Surveys is a really good deal. Plus the resources get sent to your mailbox so you can just ignore them and collect when a new limited construction event starts and have like 15k oil and 100k gold.
Also: two Dunkerque (back-to-back!) and a Forbin in this last 10-pull. Also a Hood in both this and the last. I've failed to muster the enthusiasm required to push towards D3 so I think I'm done until the rerun.

First time I didn’t get all the ships in the event build queue, no Jean Bart or Massachusetts
Not getting Massachusetts is whatever but missing out on Jean Bart is a bummer, she has unique mechanics for a battleship

OK, thanks. I'm pretty sure I can afford one, but not the other. And I don't have Jean Bart so....

Reading up on the subreddit, apparently even the purple DD gun surpasses the gold Twin Mk12. Waiting warmly for Iris tech boxes.
- London retro for EN
- Event quest for I-58's "Wallflower in the Corner" skin
- Skins for I-25, I-168 and U-101
- End of availability for Iris and PR skins
Oh, and prepare for enemy subs in the next big event. Hope you're doing your SOS Signals and Supply Line Disruption weeklies!

out of that preview image it looks like Ep. 2 is Taihou anniversary skin and Ep. 4 is San Diego retrofit
I don't recognize Eps 1 and 3 though. maybe new skins?
I'm easily confused and stupid: are you supposed to complete the Enterprise-centric event multiple times? Or just the one time to get the unique auxiliary item, and that's it?

20 rolls. One Birmingham.

EDIT: Also, this is a helluva event. I hear the translation quality's not as good (I already noticed the patchnotes list a completely different name for the event) but I do tend to enjoy shakeups of normal gameplay.

Aw man, I think they may have patched the <X Deployed retreat trick. I just tried it on A2 and it didn't register. Not a big deal for that map, but it will suck for the harder ones later.

Yep, tried it myself and it's gotta be from the start. I'm currently just omitting one fleet from the Easy stages but I might shrink them down to 2:1 fleets, if not 3:2s or 2:3s and omit my submarine fleet.
I'm guessing the EN 1 year anniversary event is coming up soon? Wikipedia says it launched 8/23/18. Gotta get Taihou.
Yeah, I have way too many Sakura Empire planes not to have at least a second full-sized Sakura carrier.

Had enough coins and cubes for twenty-one more rolls.
No Washington.
Man, I must be crazy lucky so far. I've been reading a lot of people complain about spending a ridiculous amount of cubes and not getting all of the event ships, but I got all of them from the previous 2 events, even having just started playing the game during the first and not having many cubes or coins at all, and all of them from this event without barely trying. Maybe that's the secret. I've been doing only 3 builds per day most days, but would do a few more if I was full on money, and I still have 47 cubes. It makes me worry that my luck is going to run out soon and I won't be able to get them.
Fake edit: Actually, remembering back, I didn't get all of them for the first event I did. I got Prince of Wales and Vampire, but not Atago, but I barely did any building on that one.
How do i clear A1 Fierce Battle. I am unsure as to how to do the greater than or equal to 10 star.

It's less than or equal to. You need to have a total of 10 ships or less deployed. I did 2 fleets with 5 ships each.
Portrait frame for LBing all the event ships is getting extend by a week probably cause people complained about San Juan one of the ships needed and you can't get her till the 9th.
