Use the mk10L guns, loaded with all HE light (ap in those guns has no effect due to 30 degree max angle)
Use 5/38 singles for AA or run without and put 2 reps in the AA slots. You should have 3 or 4 engys on support (and a scout, obivously)
Use the highest horsepower engine you can mount
use BB Aiming FCS I
Armor: 0 deck 0.2 belt 5 bulkhead X bulge - set up everything else (including the bulkhead and belt, ammo, and crew) before adjusting bulge. Add as much as you feel you need vs speed, but this is more a matter of preference, i prefer speed but never go without at least 30 bulge for when i have to dive through a torpedo wall from a kita. Some people like to mount a ton of bulge to almost negate the threat of torpedos entirely, but this slows you down immensely. Its all about balance...how much protection vs how much speed, and thats up to you to decide
