First thought is, find 14pts, drop the drone squads and you'll have enough for the drone net formation. You could drop a strike squad, which woudl then allow you to get some upgrades for the broadsides (i.e. stimms or EWO) and maybe have enough left over for fusions on the stealth suits to make the OSC more effective.

edit: Oh, missed the hunter cadre part at the top, disregard the above. Anyways, I'd still try and find the 10 points for the stealth suits to get fusions to make the most of the formation (i.e. dropping one of the drones since the commander can only join one anyways)
