Its a finesse list that requires impeccable flying. Should do just fine as long as you don't make any mistakes ;)

Well, reporting back with results from a game tonight. Flew against a K Wing and Y Wing both with TLT and 2 B's. I used Turr Phennir to arc dodge after shooting to PTL. Kept Echo in close and kept using his crazy decloak and hard 1s to stay at range 1 and out of arc. TLT's failed against auto thrusters and the donut holes really bit him in the ass. All in all, he dropped echo in round 4 of combat and I mopped up with the 2 interceptors.

Pretty brave running a phantom with no VI, I like it. I'm a huge fan of outmaneuver personally, but I'm still working up the gumption to fly phantoms at anything other than skills 8/9. Maybe if you ran Lone Wolf to get some defensive boosts to go with your double focus...

What about swapping intelligence agent in for the recon spec? Save two points and give you the ability to read minds before you de-cloak. 2 Points is enough for a Targeting Computer on one of your squints or you could climb the PS ladder a bit with the Saber and make him a Royal Guard Tie.
