I think there likely is some FTA here since YC is ahead on 2/3 bases immediately from the start whereas PL is only ahead on the Inf base. So IMO it would be better if one of the 2b was preowned (the Inf base) and PL gets the regular FTA counter Inf on that.
EDIT: Back to New after changes

2nd review: The most glaring problem I see is that the 1b has way more (secure) capture chains available than the 2b. Since YC is ahead on the 1b side, there likely is some slight FTA still. So B-rank is appropriate here IMO. If the distribution of capture chains is made more equal between the 1b and 2b side, this could be interesting to try in A-rank (assuming that change breaks nothing else).

EDIT: Upped to A after changes

i think there is some ta because p2 is ahead on the 2b side which can reach the middle quicker and get an adv on the contested center cities.

i would block the path between the 2b vehicle base and the middle

Moved to B-rank due to STA with the contested center properties.
EDIT: Re-Newed after changes
