Dear fellow Admirals!

I would like to ask your opinion and experience on this matter.

I wanted to get a good use of my Defenders, so I brought this together. I sacrificed mostly from upgrades, so I can keep my activations relatively high (4+1), and to have a decent (in local meta) bid, but still got useable firepower. The only thing I'm not sure is the ISD-I.

It has double role as carrier / bruiser, though it has its limitations. QBT seems good and cheap choice and OE seems no brainer. Do you think it can fulfill it's role running her on bare minimum upgrades, or should i cut back something.

Could take out 2 defenders, but first 6 seemed more adaquate.

Thank you in advance,

Rimsen

I would drop the raider for another Gozanti-class giving you room for some interesting upgrades like Engine Techs and improving the ISD-I to II + ECMs. I think it would work better as a carrier throwing walls of dice at long-medium range and Demo working as finisher.

392 would be the final fleet.

Also, having your admiral on a black dice ship with four hull is...courageous?
