Hi, I was looking at my ships and realized I never do anything with my Nebulons, I am always unsure how to fly them, so I tried making something with my three Nebulons, could this list accomplish anything? How could it be improved? Should Nebulons have slaved Turrets or TRCs? I am looking to the internet to guide me.

Triple Nebulon Bomber Build
I’d probably drop the TRCs for another GR75. Move Adar to any other ship. The Adar ship can get a squad in position for the Yavaris double (now triple) tap.
I dont think I would rub them without rieekan, but might be a fun if not terribly flimsy fleet to give a try.
Hmmm... Considering all my squadrons are unique and I am running three nebs...I could drop something to make it a Rieekan fleet instead, perhaps Toryn Farr and a Fighter Coordination team? Adar on another ship is a great idea, but at least on the salvation I think I want TRCs, it is a guaranteed double hit crit.
What are your objectives? It really matters with this list.
I ran this a while ago and it worked quite well.

Wow that is a really cool build. I haven't chosen any objectives yet since I am mostly throwing something together to get some use out of my Nebulons. I tried writing up something thats a mix of your list and mine, no clue if it has any merit:

The changes from my original list are not massive, its mostly replacing a Nebulon for a Pelta and making the general Rieekan instead of Dodonna.
To go back a step. The reason I had a pelta is originally I could protect one flank with an Adar Keyan and Luke. But I couldnt protect two flanks this way. Hence the pelta thats almost as good going forward whilst being far sturdier on the side.
Yeah, I think the pelta is a massive improvement over a titleless Nebulon, thank you ^^
