One big key that you'll want to think about is synergy.

You want upgrades, abilities, and units that work really well together.

Raymus is redundant with what you're getting out of Garm. So that's an easy drop. The Veteran captain is also probably overkill.

I could see Leia allowing you to Concentrate Fire, which I assume you'll spam on Salvation. I think you'll probably get the most extra damage out of squadron commands, which you'll need to use your fighters effectively.

Defiance really wants to move last in a round, but you might find that it is far better for the tactical situation on the board to move it first. I'd drop it.

Redemption + Projection Experts can do a lot to keep your MC80 alive.

Cluster bombs can be great, but you're taking enough squadrons that you should just use them to hold off enemy squadrons. I'd drop.

Squadrons: Try Dutch instead of Tycho, and Jan instead of Keyan, and maybe 2 more Xs instead of Han. The first thing that does is even out your squadrons, which is worth an additional placement.

See how that plays.
