Late October 1944 I have run into them northeast of Samar on their way to attack Taffy 3. around Oct 25th I believe.

April 1, 1944 I've just spotted a TF with 4 Takao CA's and the Yamato heading north from what I assume is Truk en route to Kure.

I'm not sure if the game or mods model the actual movements? But you could catch her coming out of the bungo strait on her last suicide run if so. Just read a few books and find the date she left. I just a read a good book by Japanese Naval officials called " the Japanese navy in WWII" toward the end it goes into great detail from at least one on board of the departure and path and constant topedo and bomber attacks as our patrol planes knew every movement and kept in constant contact. It was a massacre, clubbing baby seals of almost the entire formation.
