I didn't mean offense Blail and it wasn't to tailor it close to regional/national lists, but i really would push towards the iniative bid in any list with a Phantom if he can (and he actually has the cards for). Only exception maybe with an intelligence officer.

None taken. Did it seem like i did?

Ever since the phantom was released I've been pairing it with the shuttle. It just makes the most sense. But, he doesn't have a shuttle yet ^^.

That build of his is crazy though. pretty much the most efficient things ever. Hull upgrade removed for good flying. 2 pts PS bid is probably the best bid.

That Whisper build being good against Falcons AND everything else is just insane.

Cheers for the help guys and gals

The Phantom arrived yesterday, along with 2 boxes full of Mantics Deadzone stuff from the kickstarters.

2 minutes to look through the DZ stuff, over an hour pouring over the phantom. Setting it on the stand straight, fitting.into my KR case, cards into sleeves and yes, edging tokens in Sharpie paint pens. I ploughed about $500 into Deadzone about a year ago and its just sitting in the bottom of a cupboard gathering dust. Funny how gaming change over time

Right, I know I need a shuttle, I'm just putting it off as I really don't like them.

2nd Phantom or Defender?

This will be my last small based ship before S&V as all 20 slots in my case will then be filled and as I ride a motorbike I'm limited to 2 cases. 1 for x wing, t'other for Dust or Warmachine. I only mention this cos its one or the other, I can't fit both

DEFENDER!!!!
