This rating goes up significantly in vanilla. But in vanilla I can't have 4 19point idiots with flamethrowers and deployable repeaters walk in from the side of the table......
I can never get them to work for me, usually just end up frustrated. Geckos on the other hand...... Geckos win games.
I'd honesty gladly use a Gecko Duo and an Iguana in the same list TBH. Seems right up my alley honestly.
Iguana plus Gecko Duo is cheaper than the old Mobile Brigada paintrain, that might actually be viable. Or if you and your opponent are up for a gimmick game you can fit 4 Geckos and an Iguana into 300 points with just enough leftover for an Alguacile Lt.
If they had have just added "Wildcats count as Alguaciles for fireteam composition" the update would have been pretty sweet IMHO. Bit mystified they left the least played link weak. Old (smaller scale) sculpts they might not be replacing soon though (even though I like 'em), whereas Alguaciles and Brigada are digital post icestorm sculpts and quite good so maybe that's why.
I consider Wildcats on the backburner like the Tomcat hero. They'll get an update with models some day but they're low priority. I get the feeling they're looking at MI and it might not even make sense to change Wildcats now.
I absolutely agree. We'll get our "big" update/rework once we get our next wave of miniatures (Wildcats, Morans, Support Box, Carlotta?, Valerya?). Looking at the ITS specific rules as kinda open beta light is probably not too far off. I fully expect the changes to AD and TAGs make it into the next big rule overhaul - be it N4 or just N3.5. The MI change still seems a lil bit ham handed since it devalues some units that already feature Forward Deployment lvl2 and overall is not as elegant as they would like it to be. Right now I'm still very happy with what we have. CJC is not the most fancy (read: special rules heavy) sectorial like OSS or Tunguska but I never felt like lagging behind in terms of powerlevel even before the update.
I kinda hope they replace Bravery with making Strategic Deployment a common option on MI profiles that need it, seems custom designed to be a more targeted version of the same thing. The no template AD I hope they drop in favour of something else, it's a bit much - especially now with Cadmus. Letting EVO bonus to AD stack with Guided Jump (but not mission Ad bonuses) might make more sense.

This is probably a grotesquely useless list that will fall flat on it's armored front plate: specialist coverage is horrid, it can get hacked into hell and it's condensed into four lumbering armored hulks.

I love any list with a theme song and would definitely watch Gecko Pals. Don't forget that the Gecko Pilot is a specialist operative. It can dismount using the gecko as cover to press buttons in a pinch. I also think a Gecko/Lupe duo would be a great way to move a tank and specialist up the board.

That's well worth 10 points to me. Daktari proved the perfect link filler, replacing the need for a second Brigada in my defensive link. She successfully pick up the brigada after it got knocked out while the paramedic alguacile took notes. With those two wildcards and the spare jag had extremely flexible deployment options. This update isn't the bust some people think it is, although Wildcats are still left mostly untouched.
Did he take those notes in Swahili? Mixed tank/specialist duos are great in general. Hai Dao + Mowang. Raktorak + Sogarat. Lupe/Daktari + Gecko. Maghariba + Rafiq. All's cool.
