1) it is better to have 2 +4 and 2 +1. This is because + star use square root. so +4 is 2, +1 is 1.While +2 and +3 get rounded down to 1 anyway. But be careful you might need more cannon for support. so factor those in when doing your maths of how much 41cm yuou need to keep.

2) You need a maximum of 5 AP shell. 4 for BB first fleet and 1 for BB 2nd fleet. It is extremly rare (never happend) we will use 4BB in first fleet and 2 BB in 2nd fleet. Usually 4 AP shell is enough, because you can get 2 Type1 shell from quest to make up for the number.

3)It is not worth upgrading 38cm right now if you have other more improtant stuff to work on. They can serve as replacment for 35.6cm. But yeah leaving them at +4 right now is fine.

Personally I use secrued upgrade to make sure no failure starting at +6 (meaning going for +6 to +7) but some people are willing to gamble and dont use this fucntion until later. It is up to you.
