Looking for some fun casual lists

A friend and I have a collection with pretty much one of everything. A few doubles of the early (think wave 1) stuff. We're looking for a pair or two of some fun, balanced, casual, maybe thematic lists. Something easy enough to just toss on the table on a Sunday afternoon. We've only played 1 game so far. Thanks for your input!

Solely based on the fun factor I always had a blast flying double Isd Fleets with more or less kitted out Isds.

I mostly play some Variation of an ISDII, Kuat, gozzer list with Thrawn as an commander, not necessarily successful but its a **** of a blast to fly, especially the ISDs at speed 3.

Something based on this core concept>

[ flagship ] Imperial II-Class Star Destroyer (120 points)
- Grand Admiral Thrawn ( 32 points)
- Chimaera ( 4 points)
- Gunnery Team ( 7 points)
- Quad Battery Turrets ( 5 points)
- Leading Shots ( 4 points)
- Entrapment Formation! ( 5 points)

Imperial Star Destroyer Kuat Refit (112 points)
- Avenger ( 5 points)
- Governor Pryce ( 7 points)
- Ordnance Experts ( 4 points)

Gozanti-class Cruisers (23 points)
- Comms Net ( 2 points)

And usually a small fighter complement

However my personal favourite list is a 500 point variation of this list, which is basically set in stone right now(500 pts easily allows for more ships on the board, a blast in casual play)

Assault Objective: Advanced Gunnery
Defense Objective: Fire Lanes
Navigation Objective: Sensor Net

[ flagship ] Imperial II-Class Star Destroyer (120 points)
- Grand Admiral Thrawn ( 32 points)
- Chimaera ( 4 points)
- Wulff Yularen ( 7 points)
- Gunnery Team ( 7 points)
- Early Warning System ( 7 points)
- Quad Battery Turrets ( 5 points)
- Leading Shots ( 4 points)
- Entrapment Formation! ( 5 points)
= 191 total ship cost

Imperial Star Destroyer Kuat Refit (112 points)
- Avenger ( 5 points)
- Governor Pryce ( 7 points)
- Ordnance Experts ( 4 points)
- Early Warning System ( 7 points)
- Assault Proton Torpedoes ( 5 points)
= 140 total ship cost

Quasar Fire I-class Cruiser-Carrier (54 points)
- Squall ( 3 points)
- Taskmaster Grint ( 5 points)
- Flight Controllers ( 6 points)
- Boosted Comms ( 4 points)
- Expanded Hangar Bay ( 5 points)
= 77 total ship cost

2 Lambda-class Shuttles ( 30 points)
1 Ciena Ree ( 17 points)
1 Howlrunner ( 16 points)
1 Mauler Mithel ( 15 points)
1 Saber Squadron ( 12 points)
= 90 total squadron cost

I never found a nice red objective, advanced gunnery is ok with the Kuat but not ideal, however I simply love the rest, not competitive but a blast to fly
