Phoenix was hanging further back, he didn't go to far from Jason, but he was far enough to snipe the enemy. He pulled out the sniper enhancement for his DC-17m and quickly put it on as he looked down the scope he saw the charging team, and one who pulled off towards the medic. "Drawing more fire to already dying men, abandoning a line trying to hold off, abandoning his given duty," Phoenix growled tempted to shoot the man as he ran, but he held back, no point killing a man whose likely to die anyway. Even then it's Jason's choice not his. Phoenix began picking off some of the droids, focusing especially on the B2 Super Battle Droids. 

Phoenix eventually began moving towards the men, until eventually he couldn't snipe anymore and he had to go back to the base blaster mode on his DC-17m. Once linked back up with the rest of the men his priority became defending the medic, the more men we can get who can fight the more likely we'll all survive.
