So the plan is stealth teams backed up by drones with my commander+bodyguards move to the 4 quarters to get me engage and maybe RND or aerospace, then i will choose maybe to the last as my 2 stealth teams and bodyguards are pretty durable. The broadside is more of a distraction piece that has good firepower also able to hold an objective on his own and the tolken kroot unit may be used as a screen or maybe a counter punch.

If you're running that many Drones it may help to take a Drone Controller on the Commander or Crisis Team. I'd also take a Marker Drone on the Broadside just to help.

I'm also not convinced Aerospace is a decent secondary. You have to last until the next Command Phase, and you'll be giving up a decent amount of firepower to do so.
