I read an Adepticon tourney article that mentioned playing against an ISS double crane/double fire team list. Maybe my search-fu is weak, but I can't find any mention of a list like this. Does anyone know anything about it? I'd like to take a look at the basis of it. It seems like it would have some specialist issues.
What does that mean? 2 Cranes in one fireteam or 2 Cranes in 2 different teams? While I didn't do a tournament with it, I had fun doing a 3 crane list! It was of course Limited Insertion. It worked surprisingly well. 5 CRANE IMPERIAL AGENT Hacker (Assault Hacking Device) MULTI Rifle, 2 Nanopulsers / Pistol, DA CCW. (0.5 | 53) CRANE IMPERIAL AGENT (X Visor) Spitfire, 2 Nanopulsers / Pistol, DA CCW. (2 | 54) CRANE IMPERIAL AGENT (Sensor, X Visor) Boarding Shotgun, 2 Nanopulsers / Pistol, DA CCW. (0 | 47) CELESTIAL GUARD (Kuang Shi Control Device) Combi Rifle + Light Smoke Grenade Launcher / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 13) CELESTIAL GUARD (Forward Observer) Boarding Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 13) 3 SWC | 180 Points
Curious to know more myself. Is it meant that there are two Cranes, leading two fireteams of CG's? Or two Cranes in a fireteam, along with a harris of Bao/pheasent for support
Considering that Cranes can only form Core, and you can only have a single Core, you can scratch two Fireteams with Cranes in them off the list.
I've seen guys switch from one core to another by reforming the lik around others. So it's possible. Just like starting with the Kuang Shi Clestial. The switch to the other link.
You can only have one single Core at a time. It'd be entirely possible to have two Crane/CG links and bounce between them.
This is probably not good, but you could definitely do something like Imperial Service ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 10 4 CRANE IMPERIAL AGENT (X Visor) Spitfire, 2 Nanopulsers / Pistol, DA CCW.
