List 2 is better.

You can ditch Ex hangar in the INT-SD as he will be repairing quite a bit to make use of Projection Experts. With Avenger on the other ship you gotta try OL Pulse too. Even if it never works the threat of the combo will terrify opponents. Have you thought about a Konstantine theme instead? with your Q7 tractor (maybe another on the INT-SD) and then trade NK7s to upgrade G7 to G8 you could pin targets in place for destruction.

Kallus is better on the Avenger to make use of the 2 dice (increased to 3 v characters) flak. Also Avenger works against red squadron defence tokens (I hadn't realised this for ages).

Howlrunner is only benefiting 2 squadrons so maybe Dengar or Jumpmaster instead to keep Mauler free to ram.
