Looks good. Nice to see 4 combat ships and no flotillas.

I would change Ciena for Howlrunner to boost the attack and counter dice of your 6 interceptors. With that huge punch and a double brace escort nearby she should last long enough to clear up.

Then ditch the capacitors for boosted coms so your interceptors can truly roam free to alpha strike without being out of range next turn.

I know you are right on Ciena but she has become my flagship girl and I try to take her in every fleet. I might do Ciena for casual games and How for tourney builds.
