I don't use imperials very much, so I naturally don't have that many of their ships. I only have a Firespray, Phantom, and the two TIEs from the starter, along with a good many cards from rebel and scum ships. Any ideas on how I can make a descent list with just this?
Help with an Imp list.

I would consider buying Imperial Veterans and a Defender Expansion Pack. Together with your Phantom, one could produce some interesting synergies. Sadly, the Imperial Firespray is maybe the weakest imperial ship right now and a couple TIE Fighters (Other then highly specialized pilots Wampa and Howlrunner) could only be use as blockers.

Ok.
Echo and a couple Academy blockers can put in work. The firespray is hard part here as its expensive and imperial firesprays abilities arent that great.
So I present you with the squad:
"Imperial Horror Story"
“Echo” (38)
TIE Phantom (30), Intelligence Agent (1), Fire-Control System (2), Veteran Instincts (1), Advanced Cloaking Device (4)
Academy Pilot (12) x 2
Bounty Hunter (38)
Firespray-31 (33), Mara Jade (3), Ion Projector (2)
Echo has intel agent. This helps her know where not to go, and where your academies are going. The academies block, Echo kills.
The firespray has a big gun and slow with 2 agi, so will take heat off Echo. A few points to play around with. I kind of like creating a mess for formation flying ships because once ships are spread around and facing different directions, they have entered Echo's house. She can dance all around them and pick them off one by one like a teen horror movie. So Ion and Mara for the Firespray it is. Just launch it into the fray and cause havoc. A small ship that bumps you and gets ion'd is trapped there and taken out of the game with Mara Jade (like a regening Poe for instance). Easy pickings for Echo.
If you find people destroying your Firespray instantly, swap Mara for Rebel Captive to give aces something to think about. Or for more offense Go Tail Gunner and APL with a 1pt bid.
If you ever do get Imperial Veterans, an x7 Maarek with Predator would be gold in this squad instead of the Firespray.
