Well, that's more than enough to get you started. Geos first. Keep working on Phoenix and their ships (Ghost II is the next great reinforcement ability) so you can upgrade from Executrix to Chimera. Develop TIE Silencer, Vader, & Imperial TIE. This has the added benefit of being what you need to do to get your Zeta farm going as early as possible.
That's a lot of useful information in there, thanks for taking the time to write it.
I've already started working on getting some of those ships you mentioned up to speed, with the current emphasis being on the Imperial TIE Fighter, TIE Silencer, Biggs Darklighter's X-wing and the two Phoenix ships. The principal challenge right now is the lack of ship building materials for enhancement purposes. I guess I'll just have to take my time on accumulating that.

Always remember that leveling, upgrading, and even gearing is easier and quicker than farming shards or blueprints, so farming a lot of things to 7*/level 1 isn't a bad strategy. It allows those toons or ships to be available for your credits and gear and ability mats the moment you have them to spare, instead of realizing you're getting close to ready for an event but then discovering that farming the shards/blueprints is going to take 3 or 4 months.
Very true. Just yesterday the Training Droid Smuggling event came up which offers a substantial amount of training droids as a reward. And unfortunately I can't participate because I've thus far neglected unlocking bounty hunters.
Regardless, I've since decided to still focus my main farming effort on the Phoenix Squadron instead of switching over to Separatists at this stage. I realized that they presently do an excellent job of helping me finish Galactic War consistently. Moreover, I've finally pushed past #1000 in Squad Arena just a couple days ago, peaking at #772. For the big boys I guess that's probably not a big deal, but it's a milestone in my f2p journey. Anyways, after I get Thrawn and Palpatine who'll join my Empire team, I'll probably work on Grandmaster Yoda next. In preparation for that, I've already begun farming Bastila, Jolee Bindo and Jedi Knight Anakin on the side.
