Ah yes I have seen that but never played it.

Wahey! I was thinking we should probably open a thread JUST for this game! Shall we start a clan in-game as well?

Just read the mobile games thread where you mentioned about the
Akashi's Im-paws-ible Quest… I didn't even know this quest existed

Shows how much I need to put more effort in to this game! I've just started said quest line myself though and the first task is a little grindy! But I'll get there - on a mission now to obtain her too

I may even look at investing a little money in to the game myself now

Just to speed things up a little
Agreed with the balancing! My goodness trying to get anything is a real grind!!! But I guess that's the F2P model kicking in?
Out of curiosity, how do we recruit the other starters? I'm sure I could find a video or guide online showing how but I'm being lazy

Oh yeah, if you've ever wandered about the random pawprints, they make up a little message if you can find them all and combine them. there's 11 of them scattered around 11 different screens. once you've found them all, go into the Gem shop and tap Akashi 30 times and you'll start her subquest line. from what I've seen, most of the tasks are pretty grindy and there's quite a few of them to do, so rather than going out of your way to complete them, you'd be better off just letting it progress as you progress.
Also, there's a new Super Rare up for grabs today for the next fortnight. the last one was Illustrious, and now you can get hood, though I managed to pull Hood from the Heavy ships Gacha banner
the other starters can either be pulled through Light ships constructions or from Stage 2-1

I did wonder what the paw prints were about truth be told - seems I inadvertently managed to collect them all as the quest has now started for me too

Aye, definitely going to let it come naturally; I am assuming there isn't a time-limit on it, at least there doesn't seem to be one

Where on Earth did you find out about Hood from? I read the notifications and stuff but it never mentions anything like that

Do I need to be doing wider reading?

And thanking you - will start building some lights

As far as I know, there's no limit to her quest line.
If you go to Build, then Exchange, you'll find a range of Ship girls and items you can buy. Common, Rare and Elite ships usually refreshes once every 3 days, while the Featured Super Rare lasts 2 weeks
I found a fan Database Wiki that is worth checking out if you still haven't grasped certain aspects yet

You really are like the phantom of all knowledge when it comes to video games [mention=72923]Kai[/mention]!

I'd forgotten about the exchange mainly because I rarely retire ships, preferring to use them for enhancements or limit breaking

I'll take a look though and maybe start retiring a few more ships
Oh nice one, thank you for sharing that, I'll take a proper look at it. Currently trying to get my 2 main fleets up to level 70+. Still haven't put a single penny in to the game and I think I'm doing ok

Finally got the dorm going well

Well I just like to dig around when I get super curious

Yeah I only do it now when I'm running out of dock space for the girls, but I did retire a few ships who either I was getting a lot of dupes of, or just surplus to requirements. I pulled a few more San Diegos after getting her to Rank 6 so they had to go
well hopefully I don't get too tempted to spend too much more, though I do want to Lv50 supplies pack as I did pick up the other packs. I'm currently Commander Lv49 right now and my main fleet are around Lv82-87 with my second fleet at Lv69-74. There's a bit of a difficulty spike from Chapter 6 onwards just to give you the heads up for when you eventually get there if you haven't yet

Haha that you do! I should probably spend more time doing the same to be fair and really getting to know a game and it's mechanics... I'm sure I could actually be good at it then

Haha. Consequently, I too have now had to retire a few ships as I just got FAR too many duplicates to handle at once and I've hit most of my enhancement limits haha.
I'm now commander level 44, main fleet is lvl 58-68 and second fleet is 46 -61. I definitely need to put more time in levelling them all and I'm now using and abusing the dorm

Half way through chapter 4 at the moment so going to pick up my game a bit and smash through those. Noted re chapter 6

It's going to be interesting, but RIP fourth wall
in the meantime, we have a filler event for now

Aye, will smash out the filler event assuming we will be rewarded with another skin of some description? The 4th wall was created for Nep to break to be fair...

it's a Tea party event. yeah some ships have new skins, though I think they're all gem purchases. there's new dorm decorations though
