Perfectly adequate little list, relatively straighforward and will boom or bust based on your ability to enter the fight with the ISD, draw fire and targets to him, and then slam the door shut with the raiders before scooting them off.

If you start losing raiders fore they loose their racks, you are going to have a hard time crawling back into the game.

That's mostly what I'm concerned about. I have an alternate build of this fleet that drops one raider and a TIE + Howl for a kitted Demolisher. I was concerned about that lists ability to handle bomber swarms though. Six TIEs and a Jamming Field (instead of comms net) is not a lot of cushion. But Demo is a serious upgrade to firepower.

If you want to handle bombers you need slicer tools. Cut the squad commands, and bombers become a lot lot less scary. It also makes a 30pt flotilla target #1 for said bombers instead of the ISD or Glad, which also works in your favor.

Jamming hurts ties more than it helps them IMO, unless you are timing it unbelievably well to alpha strike with them, bring in jamming, weather the counter, zoom out with jamming, and resume attacking.
