So yeah this grows shields back fairly well I think. Picked the objectives to force them to come at me (yellow/red) or minimize the weakness of my defense tokens (blue). Early Warning System and ordnance pods will probably not kill a squadron deathball, but they'll make it have to maneuver harder, and if worst comes to worst I can drop external racks in a squadron's face to finish it. Hide the pelta in the middle to make a nice death zone/keep it safe.

If you truly want tanky, go for two MC80A. That being said, I like the premise and have been thinking about something similar.

Yeah, I've been dying to try that.
