I thought it would be fun to recreate the 'Phoenix Cell'

this is a close as you can get in 400 points

Thank god you're not using Entrapment Formation!. Don't want your opponent to flip the board

Why no Entrapment Formation?

Other than that, this looks good. I'm tempted to suggest dropping Hera for boosted comms on the Pelta, a VCX and another generic A, but that's just because I'm currently in love with strategic.

I could find the points for Entrapment Formation. As a list that is trying to mimic the make up of the Phoenix Cell, Hera has to stay.

I wanna try this now

If it's Pheonix Squadron...Raymus Antilles has no business being there!

Looks great though, honestly I bet it'll be a super fun list.

Turbolaser reroute doesn't play nicely with Sato'ship ability: if your swapping out your for Black dice it's not going to be useable at long range, where you want to stay.

Dropping them could buy you entrapment formation, a Bwing, and, say, some dual turbolaser turrets for some of them.

That said, the 28 points spent maybe could fit a better purpose.

That was my idea Madaghmire.

I know Antilles shouldn't be there, but a tiny concession to playability....

I am thinking of dropping an A-wing for Engine Techs and Entrapment with a 4 point bid.

I played Phoenix Home tonight (man, there are a lot of moving parts there!), and I think Engine Techs will be a definite benefit

I continued to evolve this and am actually able to field the whole cell with nothing that wasn't in the actual cell...

So... Phoenix Squadron. The redshirts of the Rebels

What is ironic, is in game terms, Mon Mothma's ability is the one you want for the Phoenix Cell. In all honesty, I'm not sure why Sato's ability is what it is, it isn't founded in any Star Wars canon that this was what Sato did.

He was supposed to be a master tactician for the Rebels and I see that in the fleet cards, but sacrificing valuable fighters to shoot up ships doesn't ring true.

Oh well.

This is how I'd ideally see the 'Cell' :-)
