I'd go with the latter. You've got firepower enough without a Vader-tank, and having those Ties as blockers will definitely help you out.
Also, having escorts mitigate the effectiveness of those bloody Asteroids.

I too would suggest the second list. You ut more ships in the air, forcing your opponent to consider more, and making it more dangerous for them to focus fire.
