Oh and liberties

What is Leia for? You only have 2 2 command ships, so you should be able to react very quickly. Yavaris is going to only do squad commands, so that just leaves Admo, which should only do Nav command except when you get in black range.

I think you would have trouble against another MC30 list because you don't have a lot of speedy fire power. You both will zip past each other and hope you can get the kill. I think it would be near impossible for you to kill an opponents Admonition.

Also, not sure how great Contested Outpost is. Admonition should be running around, and I assume Yavaris would be stationed near it with your BCC and squads. Only problem is an ISD charging forward at speed 3 will likely kill Yavaris and scatter your squads. Not to mention it you would have to focus all your firepower on it if Motti is in command.

I do think this list would be good at chasing down MSU lists. Admo to chase them into Yavaris.

What is Leia for?

I think that Leia is an essential protection of Yavaris from Slicer Tools that is certainly worth 3 points.

I find your lack of Luke disturbing.

But totally useless if you don't run against Slicer Tools. Guess it depends on your local meta to make these types of calls.

Since you don't have Rieekan, a low bid Demolisher-ISD fleet with decent anti-squadron support would be dangerous. Demo goes last on a turn, along with fighter escorts to engage the rebel squadrons, hits Yavaris. Next turn, activates first, killing Yavaris and making its getaway.

Easier said than done, but still a very potent threat. Only thing I can think to do with this list is fly your transports in a shield formation around Yavaris. Or include Rieekan.

This of course assumes an Imperial Demolisher fleet with more than Kerg's 5 ship activations and an 11+ point bid. Not impossible but not that common either.

I would worry a little about Imperial speed trap fleets. Interdictor G8, Q7 Tractors and Konstantine could give Admonition problems as it is your only real combat ship to worry about. Neutralising its attack run and assassinating Jan with Mauler/sabre/IG88 is your worst case situation.

I would suggest you may struggle against a super star destroyer ( lacking a certain a wing pilot) or a Death Star ( no luke).
