Yeah, the Falcons got that exclusive love- Turkina, Gyr, Fire Falcon.

Forgot it was left off like the Solitaire.

No one mentions that despite the Phantom's heritage, it's replacing the Firemoth in the homeworlds.

Big fan of the Prime or C depending on what the star needs.

I love using 1 to spot for a Naga (or 9), or to be a FireMoth-H that can survive a round of fire :)

Or just has a single weapon that has some reach- that MPL is nice to be able to plink, or skirmish with other light speedsters.

That was true as far back as TRO3055U. In it the Hellions, Cobras, Ravens, Scorpions, Falcons, & Horses all were making regular use of it. The Scorpions went so far as to reverse engineer it & build their own factory. That factory is probably the main source for Phantoms in the Homeworlds these days.

The Phantom rides (well runs really) again! And blimey, did I write the original thing 6 years ago? How time flies!

I've written up something about the new configs for the Phantom in the latest Recog guide, but i'll say that its gooooooooooood!
