Sending 1946 non-capital ships to Jutland

What 1946 non-capital ship should each panelist add to a squadron at Jutland, and what impact would it have?

Choices include Implacable, Unicorn, Des Moines, Alaska, a Town-class cruiser, and Shimakaze, with disputed eligibility. Under Vian, the proposed squadron is expected to overwhelm the German fleet.

A narrow definition of capital ship admits carriers by limiting the term to battleships and battlecruisers, although that reading is immediately challenged. Implacable and the aviation-support ship Unicorn exploit that opening. Alaska provokes a separate dispute over whether a large cruiser with guns above eight inches should count as a capital ship. Des Moines becomes a favored alternative, while a Town-class cruiser offers rapid six-inch fire against German destroyers and cruisers. Shimakaze is also chosen with an explicit acknowledgment that she had already sunk by the proposed date. Vian is preferred over Lee for aggressive squadron command, and the group expects the combined force to overwhelm the German fleet. The closing exchange considers which ships could accommodate the squadron commander, including Unicorn, Alaska, and a Town such as Belfast.
