Cruisers and destroyers supporting the Revenge counterfactual

The expanded pursuit would put a Tribal-class destroyer flotilla alongside the two battlecruisers and roughly three Town-class cruisers. The cruiser count is uncertain, with three offered after initially saying four. A second destroyer flotilla, two other cruisers, Nelson and Rodney would follow. In this counterfactual, Scharnhorst and Gneisenau would face a much stronger force if the first group kept them engaged until those reinforcements arrived.
