Aki

Aki

• Aki is a hybrid BB with Yamato guns in front, and a flight deck for tactical HE DBs in the rear.
• Aki follows the Standard BB build with slight changes to buff her tactical bombers
  • You can use Yamato’s build if you don’t want to dedicate a captain
• While in ship mode, Aki follows Yamato’s general long range playstyle, though she can bow into opponents. She becomes a terrifying sight when her HE DBs are in the air; she can hover DDs before nuking them or just drop a casual 30k on larger ships. Once you deal with the torpedo threats, you can move up in the mid-late game and bow tank enemy ships. Just avoid pushing too deep. Aki has no rear gun for kiting if you need to retreat, and backing up delays the inevitable.
  • Each DB attack is roughly equivalent to 2 Midway HE DB strikes, ouch
  • Aki can store up to 2 charges of her bombers
