Fleet created with Armada Warlords

The main idea is to do a battle line with salvation and mon Carren while bright hope pushes up the a wings for sato trigger. I am unsure about using the mc30 scout as it is or swapping to another type of ship.

Thank you in advance!

I would like to see Comms Net on the Flotilla. That extra token can be really useful for the big hitters. Either eat into the bid or drop Bright hope.

At long range Foresight is preferable but your MC30 wont be at long range all the game as those 3 black dice (6 with SATO and CF) are great to use once the enemy get to grips with Salvation & Mon Karren. I would opt for Admonition for more general defence at close range.

And what ship do you think would be best to fit the commander on? Also do you think the squadrons are enough or should i mix up the composition?

Commander is Probably best on the MC80s. If it dies you probably loose anyway and the huge front shield and double brace help. Just plot mostly repair commands for turns 3-6.

Squadrons look good. I might put an XWing in place of a lancer to protect the Z95s from fire for a turn. The AWing characters are perfect for a Sato list.

Yeah but the lancer rogue grit combo i thought would help get them near enemy ships
