People use 2 CVLs because of the branching rules. 2 CVs doesn't do anything, though 2 CVs and a CVL or 3 CVs would at least gaurantee the sub node. As would 2 CAs.

Because of your low-level fleet you might be better off taking your chances with the night battle node (after all enemy cut-ins have nothing to do with your level), in which case you would probably want 2 CAs. Taking 3 CV(L)s into a night node is just not a good idea. But it's going to be frustrating either way.

If you're going to go the CV hime route, I would probably advise against having any BBs so at the very least you only have to worry about one attack by the hime. I would suggest 2 CLT, 1 CA, 2 CVL, 1 CV.

3 CLTs is possible, but LoS is a big issue. Actually it's an issue even with 2 of them. CLTs have poor base LoS and no room for LoS equipment. Part of the reason I suggest pairing them with 3 CV(L)s is so that you can carry a lot of Saiuns. I used 4. You'll also need at least 3 Reppus (in the biggest slots you have) for air superiority at the boss. Don't bother trying to get air superiority at the CV hime node, it isn't worth it.
