Now there is a question and a half
It all depends on the mission.
Generally though a rule of thumb for me
for every BB, 2 CA's
for every CA 1 CL and 2 DD's
I try not to overload surface force TF's though past 10-12 ships, so if I have 2 BB's in a group I might have
BB, BB, CA, CA, CA, CL, CL and 5 DD's
it all depends on the mission, and whether you expect to have to fight a surface engagement.
If Im sending in transports to invade then I put CA's with them for suppression, for normal transports (resupply etc) I try to make sure I have plenty of ASW support. I find it easier to have larger TF's with 6 or so support ships, rather than smaller groups with less escort, aminly due to the size of the game.
