I've been growing a bit tired and fed up of being sat on the bridge of the Jaeger all day and it got me to thinking about commissioning myself a fighter like the other ranking officers around these parts.
I was thinking about our fighter tactics and the limits of our equipment and how best to minimise our weaknesses whilst taking advantage of our strengths. Our main strength is of course our dedication and team-spirit. I came up with a plan to capitalise on this.
Now, the Wrath, whilst a formidable craft, doesn't have the style which I had in mind for my thought-experiment. The Phantom, however, was perfect.
Now, a single Phantom-class vessel isn't a grave threat, but I mused that Phantoms, working in tandem as 'tag-teams' of sorts would be wonderful.
One of our light fighters could mount four Advanced Debilitators, whereas its partner could mount missiles and the standard-issue Flamecurses or similar. Mines and the like could be added as necessary.
I'm personally in the process of readying my own Debilitator-armed Phantom, awaiting others to form teams for training. Apparently, we're going to desperately need it in the near future.
