I ran both 2 CLT/2 CA for chippiing as well as 3 BB/1CLT (w/o yamato) and the latter did far better at boss even though I only used boss support for CA composition.

My point is that you have to sacrifice day firepower for night firepower when you use CA (assuming that your CA can even make it to night battle intact). For example, once your CA gets chuuha it turns ineffective for day combat. BB on the otherhand can still clear the non-himes. Enemy fleet has higher chance to be able to hurt your CA compared to BB as well. Thus BB compositions have much higher consistency. You could try using 1 CA with BB, but i feel it would be better to use another CLT instead for yasen.
