With new releases comes a renewed tank list. Still focusing on using the tank doing all the heavy lifting but now supported by arc trooper snipers. Aayla to keep the phase 1's in line and basic phase 1's to get to 10 activations. Any thoughts on changes that could be made to make it better?

After some testing I found the phase 1's to be lackluster when compared to phase 2's and the extra activation was nice but not worth the tradeoff. So the updated version features phase 2's and one phase one unit with fives. Fives let's me set up ridiculous fire supports with the tank shooting around 19 dice with a phase 2 squad and tank. The tank loudout changed as well without the need to control suppression the tank has become a self sufficient killing machine sitting happily at range 4 shooting and refreshing its cards as needed. As always I'd like to hear your opinion about the list and any ways to make it better.
