Thrawn Victory vs Reeikan MSU

For this game, I brought a Thrawn Victory, Quasar-2 (with Kallus and Ruthless Strategists), Arquittens, and a large squadron component. On the other side, Andy brought a Reeikan MSU with Pelta, three hammerheads, a pair of GR75s, and a small squadron component. I took first and select Rift Assault. Here is the opening of round 1:

Here is the opening of round 4:



In the fifth round, I was unable to command squadrons thanks to slicers/Cham and so could not finish off either the Pelta or remaining hammerhead. My Quasar was destroyed during this round as well. We called the game at that point, giving Andy a 6-5 victory. Andy challenged me to use the Quasar 2 in a fleet and so I did, but the Kallus/ruthless flak never really contributed because of obstruction. Single dice flak, even at red range tends to operate sub-optimally. Here is my complete list:
