He hasn't described anything
And if I can afford ships from Kuat, I'm sure I can afford him >>

Right...
That's why he isn't in your budget. If you have cahs to spare, then investing in your supplies to run all these magic gizmos you're getting is most needed.
Between cloning equiptment, training for your "supercommandoes", spending resources on the Mandelorians, buying ships from Kuat (that's a chunk right there), as well as repair, maitenence, and plenty of other side bets, your wallet right now is real thin. You don't have the resouces of the empire, and you're fighting a direct war rather than a guerilla one, putting even more strain on the wallet.
So far, you're really stretching your buck thin, dude. The GLF doesn't have overhead or superweapons in design. The Sith have enough resources to back their expenses up.
Right now, you're playing the GLF with a Sith strategy.

First of all, smuggling is all about risk and reward. The greater the risk of getting caught or the penalties for getting caught, the higher of a reward I demand. I also plan on starting off under no ones employ at first, but I will be open to jobs as the RP gets running. And don't forget about Johnny's character either.

Since Wayland, we've gone into hiding and will be resorting to guerilla.

You still are, with the stuff you're doing.
Supercommandos, capital ships, etc. aren't for guerrila fighting. Those are direct warfare units.
You really should be putting more effort into stealth rather than power if you're going guerilla on the sith. Right now, your stealth stinks.

The backbone of my navy, even with the new ships, is still pirated vessels, which we've been nabbing since early in the RP, and by the new one, will be nabbing sporadically galaxy-wide. That's why I'm investing so much in individual technologies, and not massive fleets that can beat the Sith. Most of the stuff I'm producing is counter-measure.

Name three counter measures then.
So far the only tech you've "invented" was the LT transverter, which is just an EMP device which just goes by another name.

Cheap, easily produced, high quantity, multi-purpose soldiers I can stick just about anywhere, facoting in who they were cloned from, and what skills they're profficient in. Plus, you're assumptions are mainly on EK, not his succesor. Sven's a lot more conservative.

Noghri and clones aren't new "technlogy". That's been around for years.
And the clones aren't even a countermeasure. That's you basically being lazy on a recruitment drive and instead copying off age-old technology which has a reputation of driving its products insane on a regular basis.
The Dathomak is the only original thing there.
My assumptions aren't assumed. I'm going off your previous reputation for lacking any creativity whatsoever anywhere, and applying that to the situations you're coming up with.
If Sven or whomever you wish to dupe as the next thrawn doppleganger is more conservative, you should probably scratch those three things on your list and go back to basics. Research and development is a radical idea, not a conservative one. Untested technology isn't a conservative step.

My instincts are pretty accurate too...

I'd suggest paying Stellar for some serious ideas on new technology. You'll need fresh stuff if you're going to get ahead of the game.
Relying on EaW to provide strategy for space fleets and Thrawn for technology is going to kill you in Legacy 2 if you continue it.
You need to revisit the rebellion's tactics about 10 BBY right now, and how they used mere corvettes to defeat enemies 10 times their size.
@Kaze: We're going to end legacy here pretty quick so I'll make one more post and call it done.
