The Ryloth discussion proposes at least six Venators in place of the three supplied by the scenario. Eight would allow six to advance in hunting pairs while two remain farther back. Those reserve carriers would provide gunfire support and recover aircraft unable to return to their own ships during the fight. Acclamators are suggested as additional fighting strength, but the scenario keeps them out until the blockade has been defeated. The plan uses a fictional battle to distinguish a carrier's offensive assignment from its recovery and reserve functions.

An eight-Venator proposal gives six ships to attacking pairs and keeps two back for gunfire support and aircraft recovery.
