I think you are underestimating the sheild bearer a little bit. I gurentee if your opponent has the sheild bearer, that he will do his best to NOT let you get adjacent.
Also, I can forsee Loda being a problem as well. It's not an efficient counter, but it can be annoying. Also, most rebel squads pack disruptive, so you have to worry about that as well.
In general, yes. This squad is beastly, and I really want to play this squad.
First off, I know of no Republic squad that will out-activate this. One shield bearer should not be a problem because any IG that can get into base could easily handle it. (And if they do their best to stay away, good for them. I will meanwhile be controlling gambit and raking in some points)
Loda? I really doubt it. Again, I will most likely move last and this means I can get off a Max of 7 ranged attacks on Loda that each would do 30 damage. That is a LOT of FP's.
