I am going to start my first IJN line aiming for a TW Kitakami. I have searched everywere
on the forum for the best sailor types to put on Kitakami but coudn't find a satisfactory
answer. Other than putting a BO and 2 Torpers ofcourse, I am confused b/w whether to put
more engies OR just leave the sailor slots empty to lessen the weight and probably gain
more speed. Please note: I am only capable of putting non-boosted and non-elite sailors.

Can anyone please tell me to gain maximium speed advantage what is the best sailor
configuration for a Kitakami? Thx in advance :).

think if you have low lvl crew under lvl 70
take
bo
torp 2
eng 3
and the last place what you want.

gdad77
1 BO zero crew
1 sonar man
2 engies
1 arm sailor no crew lvl 12-25 neut, he can use HH's but it's a matter of preference if my
engies weren't so fat mebbe i'd use 3 of em.

I have a high lvl rest for my sub crew, and when i put that on my kita + my eng, i get
52knts and 820 SD. It is a handful to try and kill with guns given the Kitas profile and
the speed. 2 torpers that are being trim due to lack of space on my sub, do the job
there.

My Kita runs BO with 0 crew

2 off +12 base torpers with about 50% crew (fully crewed BVE they hit the torp reload cap
at about lvl 60, so have been trimmed down for weight at lvl 104) These are quite easy to
roll; best are those with 10 or 11 in repair and restore.

2 Engineers at max crew size and max BVE, again a bonus with repair and restore.

Other slots level new repairers, pilots, sub crews etc. with 0 crew. Gives me a 56kt Kita
with max reload for the torps and an easy way to level new crew. Main server Kita is in
mothballs awaiting new nations release.

I'd say 1-2 engines, 3 if their going to be low level.

Yeah but how many???

Or do you mean to say I should fill all rest 4 slots with 4 engies? So my configuration
will be:

1 BO
2 Torpers
4 Engineers

Go with engineers. At worst, you can ghost them, and they'll be useful should you choose
to get an IJN BB or SS.
