400 Point Empire List for friendly game this weekend

By Crichelle, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

This is a empire list I am putting together for a friendly game this weekend against a rebel fleet. I know the ships he has access to are: AFMKII, C90, C90, Neb B, Neb B, X wing x6, Y wing x2, A wing, x2, B wing x2. This will be his first time playing rebels (he has only played twice before, both as empire), so I am trying to make a friendlier list to play against him.

The ships I have access to are: Vic, Vic, Glad, TIE x8, TIE Int x2, TIE Ad x2, TIE Bomber x2.

I am hoping for board feedback on a couple quick questions.

1) What objectives should I take with this fleet? I was thinking "Most wanted" "Contested Outpost" and "Minefields"

2) I am at a 7 point initiative bid. Is it worth it to bid "0" and take ACM on one of the Vics?

3) Does this list seem "friendly" to you? I am happy to take a sub-par fleet while he gets his bearings if it means he has a good time and wants to play more games.
