I don't see any reason to go to Sunset instead of taking Golden Sound.
The reason is that if attacking Sound, Lanni can retreat to Sunset and muster 2 ships into the port.
And this bothers you why?
If you are not placing any units in RR and you still have the sword in round 2, chances are pretty high that you can Balon your way into Lannisport.
No mustering:
Lannister has a ship in Sunset Sea and 2 in port(assuming the cp*). You have a footman in pyke and Greywater Watch and your knight in Seagard.
Raid on Golden Tooth to get rid of Lanni support in port or sea. -1 march on one footman and +0 march on knight==> Giving you a total combat strength of 6. Lannister would need his whole army and the plus 1 support to defend Lannisport. If he does so what? You take RR and wait for the next round in which a mustering is even more likely.
If mustering occurs, simply get an SE and do the same again.
