I would go for CA instead. Get another Type 3 carrier. Just go through RE-node. It's not that troublesome in Casual mode. Vanguard against it. Diamond through Air node. You will have less problem then you think as long as you have some air power.

2 WG + 1 Red gun is just a recipe for disaster. You trade a minor stack bonus for a chance to double attack, which is better. Go 1 WG + 2 Red since I assume you don't have Akizuki-class gun.

Just bring the goddamm T3 Shell. Everyone has been telling you T3-shell is better here and it is. You want to know why T3 is better? To put it as simple and without no math, no normal enemy at boss node resist T3 Shell. Tsu-class and DDs can be dealt with normally (PT-IMps just pray); Dock princess and Supply-drop princess receive bonus damage from T3. On the other hand, AP-shell bonus damage won't do much as Tsu-class and DDs can die to normal attack anyways (if formation is good) while Supply-drop princess shit on your AP-shell. That's 2/12 ships instead of 1/12 ships that are strong against your attack. In addition, with the T3 bonus, it makes AP-shell the weaker choice at boss.

Where is AP-shell actually better at? Pre-boss against BB/CV, but that's pretty much it. And you don't really need to bother with them as you will vanguard through those.
