In tivia someone wrote that this vehicle and the Pelican and ''In Amber Clad'' were the only vehicles you could not drive in actual gameplay. What about ones like the Scarab? Or the ''Shadow of Intent''? [[User talk:I94|I94]] 09:15, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm doubtful that the "clamps" on the roof of the Phantom are meant to drop troops out of the Gravity Lift: From a logistical perspective, it would be impractical to have clamps to launch troops out of the Gravity Lift when they could just as easily walk in. From an in-game perspective, it was probably easier for the game to handle several AI falling through a hole rather than having each walk along the vehicle, jump, and fall out of the lift. Thus, the AI being "deployed" through the Phantom's Gravity Lift were spawned in the air, so that when they went through the hole, they appeared to be floating out of the lift. Thus, the proximity of the troops to the roof clamps is simply to make the deployment easier for the game to handle, and not because troops are meant to be dropped from these small outcroppings.
For these two reasons, I suggest we review the section on troop clamps.
