Opinions please.

I think its a very aggresive list, with heavy ordnance and free of need of target lock.

Maybe weak against very high pilot skill and large swarms.

(Here you can see the evolution of this list.)

Deployment:

Academy ----------- Rhymer

I feel like Rhymer's ability isn't super useful here and a Cutlass Squadron with FCS would do his job for a lower cost and more durability. With FCS and a Cutlass you don't need Jonus then and you can free up more points. I know this sort of kills the idea of your list but I just find those unique Bomber pilots to be so underwhelming and overcosted.

For less than the 2 Aces you can get 2 Cutlass Squadrons with FCS, Extra Munitions, Flechette Torps., and Clusters.

Disagree...Rhymer with Advanced Homing is bonkers

Also it doesn't blow my mind to have a ship that may be able to deal two faceup damage cards before exploding for nearly 40 points.
