Any formation is eay, if you want to maintain line of bearing. Give the
same 
orders, and that destroyer which was 2mu east of the BB will still be
2mu 
east of it. If you want to maintain relative position, though, that's
quite 
difficult. In that case, something like a diamond / box pattern is the 
easiest--you're not actually maintaining the same position, and you may 
switch who's in front, but you're still in a compact group.
