Ah, good call. I was looking at the missions early this morning and thought I could only get 8 out of 10 stars without carrier use. Time to get some caffeine in the system.....

65 [OTG] AngelsOmega Members 138 posts 11,567 battles Report post #4 Posted September 1, 2017 No worries - glad to help. I actually thought the same thing as you until I realized that these missions were repeatable (for the stars only, not the rewards). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Task 1 is a bit difficult due to the CV econ nerf from a while back. Base exp is harder to go by. Luckily, you don't need to win/survive. Task 2 is pretty easy. 80k spotting happens naturally if you have any air control. Task 3 pretty much requires Taiho/Hak. Task 4 is nearly impossible. The rest are just grinding. Plus you can just repeat the easy missions and get them over with. Completionists will have a hell of a time, however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,247 [SCCC] FayFay731 Members 1,137 posts 9,687 battles Report post #9 Posted September 1, 2017 I mean there are 4 tasks you can complete without a cv, each rewarding you with 2 stars each. 1. Earn 200 000 credits 2.Earn 30 000 experience (after modifiers) 3. Shoot down 300 aircraft 4. Spot 500 torpedoes I would do the first 2 and repeat them, 3 if you have premium. If you only need 2 more stars, just do an easy task you haven't finished from science of victory. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't put any team through that kind of handicap. Would be different if it were doable in co-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't put any team through that kind of handicap. Would be different if it were doable in co-op. I just started doing the T5+ CV missions for Science of Victory. It will be a long time before I try to complete all the T8+ CV missions in the other Campaigns. I got Liquidator recently in Hatsuharu. I'm down to just needing a handful of missions (including Arsonist) for "with Honors". Knowing my luck, I will get Arsonist when that mission isn't active.
