The best thing the makers could have done was do PvP against kancolle players to give them a real workout.
Got some ideas: -Overseas players get to control abyssal fleet, only reversed(The Japanese Kantai is now the abyssal, vise versa), with their own ship detailed(Eg: Wo or Aircraft Carrier Onis is actually USS Yorktown and her sisters, etc). -PvP is masked, looks like normal battle, player unknowingly fighting against their Japanese/Overseas counterpart -Throw some events in battle: (Eg if Nagato attack USS Independence masked as Wo-Class aircraft carrier, the player will unlock flashback CG as they have a rival final speech on Bikini Atoll before the 'great light' covers them, but Nagato dismiss the memory and keep on fighting anyway)
Our opponent is late.Finally the first battle of our fleet... !The first battle... I'm nervous...During one day, you can fight with a maximum total number of 10 people.Ah, I'm sorry.What is he gonna be like, I wonder?It's really not popular.It looks like there's only one Admiral on this server.
