Contemplating a EA fleet

Hannibal

Mongoose
So I'm considering an EA fleet using the 1st ed counters. Any thoughts? Tips on how to use?

2 Omegas
2 Hyperions
Nova
4 Artemis
2 Oracles

I'm thinking of squadroning the hyperions and the artemis (two squadrons of 2 for them). Use the oracles as some init sinks and then move the novas and artemis squadrons.

Tactically, my thought is have the Nova drive right up the middle. Put the artemis squadrons on the flanks and use their speed to turn the corner and drive right through the middle of the enemy fleet.

Fighter wise I'm thinking a 50/50 split between starfuries and T-bolts. Or should I just go all badgers?
 
It's all going to depend on what size fights and who your opponent is...

I don't build race specific armies/fleets. I prefer take-all-comers lists. Although I'm also biased towards the bigger, more iconic ships.

Avenger = fleet carrier and a +1 on Command rolls.
Omegas long range weapons + 4 flights of thunderbolts
