Fun with Phasma?

By ztiesman, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Have a local store champ coming up in a couple of weeks. I've been messing around with a few SF pilots plus something.

I was thinking of trying Phasma with 4 zeta survivors. Let Phasma spread the damage around if she gets shot at. Anyone try her out yet(Hyperspace)?

Captain Phasma 55

-Advanced Optics

-Special Forces Gunner

-Fanatical

Zeta Squadron Survivor with Advanced Optics x 4 = 144

5 s/f can be solid but maybe try swapping a couple out for some fanatical omega aces. Phasma can pass the damage to them to "turn on" fanatical if they haven't been shot at.

I’ve run something similar and had solid results and a lot of fun.

I will try the following soon:

- Vonreg
- Phasma (Fanatical, Special Forces Gunner)
- Omega Squadron Ace (Fanatical)
- Omega Squadron Ace (Fanatical)
- Omega Squadron Ace (Fanatical)
198 points

Very simple. I'll try to keep the SF and FOs together while Vonreg flanks.

I've run something similar lately:

-Rush

-Phasma

-Omega Sqad Ace (Fanactical, Optics) x3

It was good at forcing the opponent into taking less optimal shots to avoid damaging Rush or having Phasma "power-up" the FOs. It was a bit of a pain to fly Phasma as the lead ship in an I3 swarm though. Lots of marking, moving, and re-marking.
