Hoth 5-E Normal Ships is broke

Actually, I expected the fleet battles to become harder earlier on, but just as OP, I finished them all like it was nothing, except that one... Their capital ship gets 2 turns before I even get 1 attack in! And of course every ship needs to be the ITF, so you can't hit them because of all the dodges.
I stopped trying a long time ago, and I'll try again when my ships get even stronger.
There are folks in my guild who have beaten it, so there needs to be a way. I'm just not there yet, I supposed?
I get my motivation from the fact that just yesterday I beat the mythic node on that Ewok challenge for the first time, where a few months ago they obliterated me on tier 8.

If you try beating this node 3* with Tarkin well... I don’t think you’ll ever do it. His capital ship has no heal.

I beat it just the other day with 3*... used Ackbar with oh I think it was fives, Sun Fac & Biggs. Or maybe it was 3 Goes. Heal your tank immediately. Phantom 2 reinforcement... Vader, etc. lost one ship but ended with five so got 3*. should be easy with a taunting hounds tooth to absorb damage.

I had trouble with this node until I swapped in Hounds Tooth at 4* with g11 Bossk and Xanadu at 3*, g8 Cad. Get HT’s taunt up, use Xanadu to keep breach on a Tie at all times so HT taunt always refreshes, and chip away at the Ties while they smash uselessly against HT.

Ackbar Lead

Open with:
Vader
Scimitar
Any ship weaker than Scimitar.

ITFs pound the weaker ship to death. Scimitar grants Retribution to Vader. Ackbar casts healing/protection-up on Vader.

Vader counters the TIE's to death.

ive 3* every single node on normal and hard mode BUT this one. it needs to be fixed

if they all got harder its one thing but this one to be only one is crazy.
