I Have You Now

If you want to try to fit the theme still, there is always going for one of the "Death squadron" Star Destroyers instead of the Defense Protocol as Death Squadron was Vader's Star Destroyer Fleet in Episode V, so it could technically be an extention of Black Squadron.

Death Squadron's a strong pod with some decent resources, but are its resources good enough on their own? Seems like it would need a deck with an even stronger resource base in addition to its own econ assistance, since if you DON'T draw the other cards in the pod the Star Destroyers are dead weight.

I've got a similar deck except that I have defense protocal instead of kuat reinforcements.  Same events, I'd rather have defense location over kuat, same with tie squad over backstabber, and you can never go wrong adding a twist to the deck.  Despite the fact that you give up 2 black squadron units as the back stabber, I still think the tie squad with potential targetted strike in a deck with plenty of fate cards is better.  I've never had a resource shortage in my deck either, especially if I get the location for black squadron cards being used as resources.  I've tried both versions and just think its better with defense protocal
