The '''Eklon'Dal Workshop Warrior Transport''' is a craft in the '''[[Phantom]]''' line of armed [[dropship]]s. While the Phantom was originally introduced as a design for the [[Covenant]] empire, the variants produced by the [[Eklon War Forges]] are instead employed by the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


The '''Phantoms''' utilized by the [[Banished]] are heavily modified [[Type-44 Phantom|Type-44]] and [[Type-52 Phantom]] [[dropship]]s.<ref name="Grim">[https://twitter.com/GrimBrotherOne/status/878420846628319232 '''Twitter''': ''Jeff Easterling'']</ref>
==Overview==
===Design details===
The Eklon'Dal Phantom is based on the iconic {{Pattern|Ru'swum|Phantom|}} and {{Pattern|Kez'katu|Phantom|}} Phantoms pioneered during the era of the Covenant empire. Thanks to the empire's collapse into [[Great Schism|civil war]], restrictions on the use of [[Forerunner]] technology allowed the [[Banished]] and its war-forges to begin making home-grown improvements to their fleet of vehicles - with their dropships being some of the most prolific examples. Accordingly, the Eklon'Dal Phantom features noticeably increased armour plating and a more pronounced empennage, though otherwise mostly bears resemblance to its imperial forebears.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}


==Design Details==
Most of the changes introduced by Eklon'Dal's engineers were functionally negligible to the vehicle's overall performance, though the changes of significance were a cause of argument among the members of the [[clan]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
===Chassis===
These Phantoms are heavily modified [[Type-44 Phantom|Type-44]] and [[Type-52 Phantom]] dropships,{{Ref/Reuse|Grim}} designed to serve as gunships and firing platforms for the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|cf}}


They are fitted with a twin [[impulse drive]] system, this makes the Phantom capable of long-range subluminal travel.{{Ref/Reuse|cf}}{{Ref/Reuse|phantom}}

===Variants===
These Phantoms are fitted with one [[heavy plasma cannon]].{{Ref/Reuse|cf}}
*'''Standard variant:''' The standard Eklon'Dal Workshop Phantom, bearing a plasma cannon and twin ''She'ap''-pattern light plasma turrets.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
*'''Gunship variant:''' A variant of the Phantom predominantly carried aboard ''[[Enduring Conviction]]'' and used in the [[Second Ark Conflict]]. This variant retains the classic Covenant Phantom's twin forward engines, and is aggressively modified to serve as a gunship and firing platform. It boasts a larger cannon on the nose, bearing resemblance to the [[Grenflekt Workshop Spiker]], though appears to have lost the side turrets in favour of portholes for onboard troops to contribute their firepower to the vehicle's defence. This configuration would have been used by [[Ripa 'Moramee]], were he to have joined the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|cf}}{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}

Several of these Phantoms were kept aboard ''[[Enduring Conviction]]'' to augment her existing stocks of [[Banished Spirit|Spirit]]s and [[Banished Lich|Lich]]es during the Banished's [[Second Ark Conflict|operations]] on [[Installation 00]] in [[2559]].{{Ref/Reuse|cf}}

In ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'', Banished Phantoms are exclusive units for [[Arbiter]] [[Ripa 'Moramee]] and can be made at [[Banished outpost]]s once the leader power has unlocked them. Similar to the [[M650 Mastodon]], the Phantom can be used as a mobile garrison. Phantoms perform okay against aircraft, but poorly against infantry, vehicles, and structures. Due to their low offensive power Phantoms benefit greatly from a complement of infantry. If the Phantom is destroyed the passengers will survive, but will take damage. In [[Blitz]] the Phantom costs 80 energy.

Due to their low offensive power Phantoms benefit greatly from a complement of infantry. If the Phantom is destroyed, the survival of the passenger depends on their remaining health when aboard. If the Phantom was destroyed with passengers in full health, they will survive but will take damage. If the Phantom was destroyed with heavily wounded passengers, the entire passengers will be killed. In [[Blitz]] the Phantom costs {{HW2BlitzEnergy|80}} energy.

===''Halo Infinite''===
Banished Phantoms in ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' have more health than its predecessor but has less resistance with other weaponry. The Banished Phantom can be destroyed by explosive weapons, [[Sentinel Beam]]s, and [[Sniper_Rifle#Halo_Infinite|Sniper Rifle]]s. If players are caught inside a fifteen-meter radius when the Phantom is destroyed, the player will suffer an effect similar to receiving a [[Flashbang grenade|flashbang]].
