Going to try this on Friday,

Colonel Vassery with Marksmanship, Heavy Laser Cannon and Experimental Interface

48 points

Give my phantoms a rest for a bit and see what the defender can do, wish the defender had a evade action tho.

Marksmanship and HLC on Vassery?

I wonder how useful Wingman is going to be, since you don't want the Defender to stay too close to the Decimator (Decimator is ramming, and the HLC works best at range 3). The Defender has plenty of green manouvers, as well as that white K that means stress is less hindering.

Something like Intimidation is probably better, since you'll be ramming anyway.

On my trial run I stayed behind Oicunn, he moved up got target locks and Vassery moved up got a focus or barrel roll then experimental marksmanship, staying within range 1 I used wingman couple of times and had good choices on my targets. Also no mater what rolling 4 dice which landed me 3 hit and a crit using my free target lock more then couple times was devastating then having the focus for my evade rolls. Oicunn only got 1 bump in but he really benefited from weapons engineer. Overall was pretty a pretty fun trial. Wingman left a lot of options open for Vassery.
