Keeping the friendly play in mind:
1. Why a Target Array for a fish without SMS and a MT? For *friendly* play, I'd just have the Dispod.
2. All FK XV8s? Friendlier would be a couple DEathrains, FS, Helios. Mix it up.

To address those concerns:

1. I had 18 points left at the end with nothing better to spend them on, so they went on the Blacksun filter and the Targeting Arrays.

2. All my Crisis Suits except for Farsight and my normal commander are Fireknives. (1 Farsight, 1 CIB/PR Commander, and 6 Fireknives leaves me w/o a lot of flexibility. No, I was not smart enough to magnetize the models so I could change weapons at will.)

Ah, yes. The REM conversion was a pain. And I've actually just glued the last couple suits I acquired.

Just make the next couple suits Deathrains or FireStorms or Helios.

And, I think that 18 points would be better spent as a Shield Drone.

The drone makes more sense. I'll modify the above list.
