The game is just one big logistical nightmare. You need everything. You need it now. You can't get everything now, so figure out what requirements you need to meet smaller goals, and pump your resources into those.
^This is a pretty accurate summary of the game, to be honest. It only gets worse when you hit endgame-tier stuff, because the game functions on the law of diminishing returns. Then again, there's crazy, and then there's birii.
sighAnyhow, just go out and collect more resources, okay!!Don't tell me! You saw thaaat!? Secrets of the Light Cruisers: Those Beyond Worldly Standards, from the Unraveling the Secrets of the Shipgirls series!?Whaaat!?It's resources!!This is different than the naval base I had in mind...
Admiral of the Nansei Naval Base
What video?Admiral Murakumo! The Orel Cruise was a failure! We're in the red now!!Is this place actually a naval base?Anything else?Let me tell you what I think is the most important thing when waging a war.Looks like the Admiral has quite the handful going on right now.
Senpai at the Nansei Naval Base
Welcome to Nansei Naval Base.You have any questions for me?I am the acting Ship Admiral, Murakumo. Pleased to meet you.You're Tenryuu-san... right?You seem different compared to the videos I saw during training...So I'll be the one showing you around instead.
Tenryuu using "atashi" here instead of her usual "ore".You said you're destroyer Kiyoshimo, right?ulp...Weeeelp, I can see where you're coming from... the seas here are quite rich in resources, so we're pretty big on collections.
Still, I'd say that that Murakumoour admiral
bint's a bit too obsessed with her KPIs, which is why we're in this state right now.
