I'm about to embark on covering my lounge floor to eliminate the
undulating carpet effect.

I'm going for 3mm hardboard as recommended by my trusty Collins DIY
manual, and was thinking of using a nail gun to make the job a bit
easier.

I'm looking at the light duty brad nailer in HSS. Would this be
sufficent, or would I need something a bit more heavy duty?

Anything else I need to be aware of before I start?

use 4mm WBP ply instead

Forgive my ignorance, but what is WBP ply? What's the advantage of
this vs hardboard?

Water and Boil Proof ply, says it all, really.

hardboard is stiff cardboard and thus not moisture resistant whatsoever.
