-100 Points-

The link will allow Dengar to have Focus most of the time, meaning that R4 is like an FCS. Boba and the torps will shutdown a ship if used right.

Mindlink with only two ships isn't often a good idea, and Zuckuss can be killed very quickly.

If Dengar is using R4 Agromech, Zuckuss will almost always be stressed, meaning he can't provide the focus token to Dengar without clearing stress. If he's clearing stress, he might as well take K4 Security Droid to get a Target Lock on the green maneuver. You can drop Fire Control System at that point, and I would actually drop Cloaking Device to put Sensor Jammer on Zuckuss to give him just a little more viability. With the two points you gained from dropping Gunner for K4, you can try to squeeze Hotshot Co-Pilot onto Dengar instead of Fett (you'll need to drop Tractor Beam or Burnout SLAM). Dengar can now strip a token before an enemy attacks Zuckuss, making it more likely for Sensor Jammer to trigger.

Wow, thanks. This is the in-depth comment I wanted. R4 doesn't give stress though.

LOL! I was thinking of Overclocked Agromech.

Your list is great!
