Here's a list that i am considering running at a local tournament this weekend.

Assault: Precision Strike
Defense: Fighter Ambush
Navigation: Superior Positions

Imperial II (120)
• Admiral Sloane (24)
• Governor Pryce (7)
• Gunnery Team (7)
• Boosted Comms (4)
• Electronic Countermeasures (7)
• Leading Shots (4)
• Quad Battery Turrets (5)
• Avenger (5)
= 183 Points

Quasar Fire I (54)
• Captain Brunson (5)
• Flight Controllers (6)
• Boosted Comms (4)
• Pursuant (2)
= 71 Points

Squadrons:
• Maarek Stele (21)
• 7 x TIE Defender Squadron (112)
= 133 Points

Total Points: 387

I took defenders because with sloane no matter what you roll on thier blue anti ship die it will be useful. What do you guys think?

I have used similar builds. So, a thing to think about is going against an aces list. I found out the fun way that defenders die fast to an aces list.

Flew against @Dreadnowt last night and he had a Thrawn list running 7 Defenders and Maarek. It's a scary amount of squad damage, though we were both heavy on the generic squads so as @modise points out aces (especially scatter aces) may prove to be a bit of a problem. But it's certainly not something anyone wants to see deployed opposite them!

What about this?

Name: Maarek-Jendon BroTeam
Faction: Imperial
Commander: Admiral Sloane

Assault: Precision Strike
Defense: Fighter Ambush
Navigation: Superior Positions

Quasar Fire I (54)
• Governor Pryce (7)
• Ruthless Strategists (4)
• Boosted Comms (4)
• Expanded Hangar Bay (5)
• Pursuant (2)
= 76 Points

Gladiator I (56)
• Intel Officer (7)
• Ordnance Experts (4)
• Assault Proton Torpedoes (5)
• Demolisher (10)
= 82 Points

Raider I (44)
• Admiral Sloane (24)
• Agent Kallus (3)
• Ordnance Experts (4)
• Flechette Torpedoes (3)
• Instigator (4)
= 82 Points

Gozanti Cruisers (23)
= 23 Points

Squadrons:
• Colonel Jendon (20)
• Maarek Stele (21)
• 5 x TIE Defender Squadron (80)
• JumpMaster 5000 (12)
= 133 Points

Total Points: 396

Maarek-Jendon BroTeam helps damage, and the Jumpmaster 5000 helps keep the TIE/Ds from dying to aces that fast, but will die easily, so it's only a one-time use type of thing.

I actually didn't have much trouble with scatter aces. The nice thing is with the acc being able to spend defense tokens Scatter aces weren't a problem (especially throwing 3 blue and 2 black with flight controllers)

Glad to hear it! I just worry that with fairly few blue dice and no swarm reroll they won't reliably get the acc when they need it, but when you do roll in that accuracy there should be a nice bundle of damage to go along with it.

I may have to try this. I love the name of the fleet too

Got a bit nerfed in the last errata, but still useful.
