^i think it's better not to put more than 2 bb to run a sortie.. unless you are trying to clear some heavy based fleet maps like 2-4, 2-5, 3-4 and 5-5.. just read the desired map page before attempting to clear that map.. that way, you can find the best composition which are both efficient and effective to tackle that map..

ASW = Anti Submarine Warfare.. Light Cruisers and Destroyers are mostly used to be an AA support(with AA-Cut In) or to deal with enemy submarines(ASW duties).. they have high ASW stats and can be equipped with depth charges + sonars to one hit those subs.. ASW is needed to clear subs based map like 1-5.. there are some CLs and DDs who have outstanding ASW stats to do specific ASW duties.. refer to page, list of destroyers by maximum stats and list of light cruisers by maximum stats for a better comparison for each  CLs and DDs..
