So, a buddy is coming over tomorrow for a game.

We aren't experts, either one of us, so we prefer limited numbers of upgrades and hero squadrons.

We like a very very squadron heavy game... Like, minimum 100 pts out of 400 (we are just casual players, so we can go over the limit.)

I've got every ship on both sides, with doubles of the Nebs, Corvette, Raider, and Victory. Two fighters packs, one rogues and villains.

So...

What list would you recommend for each of us?

Advice very welcome!

That's a good starter set of lists, to the point where I might fly that for my "lets get these guys hooked" games. I'm halfway tempted to suggest a few hero squadrons with special stuff, just to suggest "Hey, these things can be cool" but it depends on how you want to do it.

Those lists look like pretty much what you asked for Lord Ashram. I would add Han Solo and Boba Fett for flavour. Just straight up add them and the lists will remain equal points.

I wouldnt call two VSD and two more capitals a figther heavy list.

10 & 11 squadrons is a squadron heavy list, zero-4 is light,5-8 medium, 9+ is heavy, you cannot actually take much more in 134pts I had one build and it is 12 squadrons for 134pts exactly.
