Thanks! I've run this list about 7 times now and am currently undefeated with it having faced everything other than a dedicated bomber fleet. Enemy Avenger/BT, Swarms, Doom pickles, and Liberties have all been gobbled up between the two destroyers.

I tried RBD instead of ECM once and was disappointed in the results. I took two mc80 broadsides of 7 plus damage that I couldn't brace... The flagship lived but just barely. I went back to ECM right quick after that. And haven't come close to losing it since.

The last thing I would do is put DCO on the flagship, but those haven't really been relevant since racks have come out. It did work for me wave 5 vs APTs though.

Originally I was rather nervous about only using 6 standard ties but they have come in clutch. I usually tank the first wave of fighter attacks and then retaliate with my ties and AA fire together and it does pretty strong work. I'm hesitant to lose a deployment as 7 is already on the lower end, and I have two very important big ships that need as much info about the enemy fleet as possible before dropping them.

I figured deployments were a big part of the 6 TIE Fs and could see that easily making a huge difference. You're probably right about DCO since going first is so critical for BTAvenger. ECM and RBD really is a toss up. It seems like whichever one I take I almost always could have used the other one more.
