So I took my last version of this list to a Regional and finished 2nd. The main diffference was that it had Yavaris instead of Admonition and an extra X Wing. But I feel like experimenting with something with a little less Squadron punch and a little more ship punch. In the MC80 & Admonition I should have two ships that can survive a moderate beating and that looks like it's becoming more important in competitive play. I've mostly left Wave 5 out of the list for now on purpose:

I really like the list! You seem to cover everything... you can rely on your fighters, your bombers and even your ships to do dmg. That's a well rounded list that I might try someday!

Thats a lot of points invested in squad support without the boost of yavaris. Wedge and Dutch are overpriced without Adar/Yavaris.

Admonition benefits massively from first player, you have a 1pt bid.

Comms net? For what?

I think you need to build from scratch, yavaris was the heart of your list.

Fair point about the aces not being worth it without Yavaris / Adar. That actually let me fit the 8th squadron back in. If you think the bid is that important, I can always drop the extra X Wing back out but I'll probably give it a go like this to see what it plays like before I theory too much further. The comms net is just because I like having easier access to tokens on the MC80 btw, I've dropped Raymus from this version of the list.
