Which episodes are better to skip?

Started to rewatch the series from the beginning with my family. Noticed that some of the episodes are very "filler" and with worse animation (like s1 13 or s2 2). Can somebody please give me a list of similar episodes that you can skip? Asking because there is time to watch only one per evening, so I would like not to waste time. Thank you in advance for understanding.

Could the Galactic Empire’s forces at the Battle of Endor be able to defeat the Rebel Fleet from FTL: Faster Than Light? (No Death Star)

What if the Galactic Empire was dealing with a highly competent, disciplined opponent who was exploiting large numbers and the doctrine of highly maneuverable small spacecraft? 

In this fictional battle there are such forces:

Galactic Empire:

1 Executor-class Star Dreadnought
At least 1 battlecruiser
30 Star Destroyers
Interdictor vessels
1 Raider II-class corvette
At least 1 Lambda-class T-4a shuttle
Hundreds of TIE/LN fighters
Hundreds of TIE/IN interceptors
TIE/sa bombers[8]
TIE/d "Defender" Multi-Role Starfighters

Rebels:

The real numbers of spaceships are unknown, but the Rebel Fleet is so ubiquitous that in the game it’s being abstracted as all sweeping wall of doom, seizing all the encountered sectors from one edge of the Milkyway galaxy to the other. In this battle we will account the size of Rebel Fleet to be proportional to the GE's.

Rebels utilize multiple types of spacecraft and technologies. 

Rebels' regular ships, support and elite

For the vanguard fleet they send rebel fighters, invaders (length: 33,16m; width: 21,13m) ; riggers and disruptors (length: 22,67m; width: 22,67m). All of them are capable of fighting, though the later two are more of the support type vessels.

The main fleet’s force is consisted of multiple elite fighters and assault type spaceships (length: 33,16m; width: 21,13m). All of them have more shields and weaponry compared to regular ships.

auto spaceships

The rearguard consists of big ships armed with ASB (anti ship batteries). They are not really revealed in game besides the existing hazard of them firing at the player from afar, so let’s not count them here. Instead, let's count the automated fleet of unmanned spaceships: scout, surveyor (length: 10,715m; width: 22,16m) ; assault, hacker (length: 11,95m; width: 24,34m). In the game they are not present as part of the main fleet, though they are scattered all over the galaxy, implying disruption to the enemy lines and gathering intelligence.

Hypothetical Flagship with all the systems installed

The Rebel Flagship is the main assault spaceship, where also reside the main commanders of the Rebel Fleet and powerful AI that helps to coordinate fleet forces + the automated fleet. 

The Flagship main task in the game was to be the command center and the ship's fight role was to methodically hunt the ASB spaceships and destroy fortifications as The Main Federation´s Base. In this battle Flagship will be primarily targeting star destroyers or executor class ship.

In this imaginary battle we suppose that the Flagship already has all the built in systems from all the three stages from the game, though it has to redirect power as it does not have enough of it to power all the available systems. 

Weaponry: three valley ion artillery, three valley laser artillery, triple rocket launcher, beam cutting weapon, drone swarm. When heavily damaged and unstable, can weaponise power surge.

If the entire crew dies AI will take over the Flagship.

Available technologies 

All rebel spaceships have shields. Each layer can defend only from one shot from the standard laser cannon before regenerating. In game ships scale with progression, so let’s suggest here that ordinary ships all have 2 layers, assault auto ships have 3 and elite ships + Flagship have 4. 

Rebel ships have such weapons as: regular laser cannons, ion cannons (only auto ships), missiles that penetrate any amount of shield layers, teleporting bombs.

Boarding rebel ships use teleporters and frequently have cloning bays to restore their fallen soldiers.
Many rebel ships have drone systems and can send assault drones to chase and harass the enemy.

Some ships use hacking drones to crack the enemy's ship systems.

Flagship and some auto ships have cloaking technology.

Specialised rebel spaceships and also Flagship can use mind control system that can only target one person.
