Hey guys! So coming up in a few weeks is gonna be my FLGS's third Infinity tournament and we're gonna be playing 3 different missions; Firefight, Capture and Protect, and Quadrant Control. Whilst I'm still deciding on a list that works for both CaP and QC, I think I've settled on the list I'll be bringing for the Firefight mission. Steel Phalanx ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 10 2 AJAX 2 Combi Rifles, Nanopulser / AP Heavy Pistol, EXP CCW. (0 | 39) MYRMIDON OFFICER Lieutenant Boarding Shotgun, Nanopulser, Eclipse Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0.5 | 30) MYRMIDON Combi Rifle, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 25) MYRMIDON Chain Rifle, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 16) PHOENIX Heavy Rocket Launcher, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Heavy Pistol, DA CCW. (2 | 40) EUDOROS Mk12, Nanopulser, Eclipse Grenades / Pistol, DA CCW. (0 | 40) MYRMIDON Chain Rifle, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 16) MYRMIDON Chain Rifle, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 16) TEUCER (Multispectral Visor L2) Feuerbach, Nanopulser / Pistol, Knife. (2 | 48) AGÊMA Marksman Missile Launcher / Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 27) GROUP 2 1 WARCOR (360º Visor) Flash Pulse / Stun Pistol, Knife. (0 | 3) 6 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army Hopefull I can get some feedback on this list. I feel like it really packs a punch with the two Myrmidon Eno links, with Teucer and an Agema Marksman providing sniper backup. Do you think this list has what it needs?
It's firefight! CMon and team up our golden boy Diomedes! He is a PITA or a KITG appearing in the back line with his blazing mk12 Enviado desde mi Mi A1 mediante Tapatalk

Don't use the spare points to fill in another combat group or the enemy would cut you 2 orders in case you'll have the initiative Enviado desde mi Mi A1 mediante Tapatalk
And don't use Diomedes as lieutenant :) because of so, he has to deploy in table or you will be in loss of lieutenant since the beginning Enviado desde mi Mi A1 mediante Tapatalk
Is the CoC worth the extra specialist troop in this case? Regarding the second combat group, I couldn't find clarification on what the interaction is between the Command Tokens and combat groups? I'll take any help I can get since I'm still quite new haha
If you only have a combat group, the opponent can't use a command token to drain you two orders at the beginning of the game. The CoC is crucial to let Machaon (our best lieutenant) be a bit wild... You will learn a single combi rifle in the hands of a BS12 plus ODD guy... Kills. Also you have NWI plus will14 specialist plus eclipse grenades and a boarding shotgun.... I can't remember how many times she has saved my ass. Enviado desde mi Mi A1 mediante Tapatalk
http://infinitythewiki.com/en/Command_Tokens Look at the strategic use (ie: at the start of the game) The player who play second can use one command token to remove 2 orders to his opponent. There are 2 ways to limit this: 1. http://infinitythewiki.com/en/Counterintelligence (but Steel Phalanx doesn't have it) 2. The "Reduced combat group" rule from ITS10: (page 10) REDUCED COMBAT GROUPS In all Season 10 tournament modes, any Army List possessing only one Combat Group will be not affected by the Strategic Use of the Command Tokens which nullifies two Orders from the Order Pool. I do agree that it's a bit troublesome to have these rules in different places
Thank you! I couldn't find that anywhere but I did recall hearing about it. I really appreaciate this.
I do agree, Machaon is such a good lieutenant. I'm just hesistant about bringing a Doctor to a firefight but yeah I've used him to snipe a Ratnik from across the board with a super lucky crit on 2! I'll see what I can do with this advice!
Machaon is good, no matter what he does. WIP 15 LTN, possibility to heal buddies (good in Firefight if you raise up costly troopers). There is also 2 classified objectives. You already have good killers.
Definitely dropping the Warcor after the confirmation! I still really want to include Teucer plus the Missile Launcher Agema to deal with opposing fireteams that I know will be present, such as one of our Ariadna players fielding two fireteams featuring Vet Kazaks, and our two Yu Jing both fielding Immediate Action Units! So I'm thinking something more like this: Steel Team Firefight ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 2 AJAX 2 Combi Rifles, Nanopulser / AP Heavy Pistol, EXP CCW.

Two Myrmidon links and two Agemas is definitely a strong list. My advice would be to play that kind of setups for a while and find the specific composition of units that you like best. These type of lists work for pretty much all missions, so you can practice with them without any limitations. I personally like to take a MSR Agema and and a Mk12 Agema, but there are many viable options.
I would play Machaon with Phoenix as he is more likely to fall than Ajax. The end of the list is a matter of taste. I do like Teucer, as he is over other Agêmas thanks to NWI, Climbing+ and nanopulser. And Marksmanship LX can be ace. I prefer Agêma MSR over ML because of the Burst 2. Don't forget the Season X Forward Deployment L1 on Medium Infantry!
The original list included that actually. But when I was playing Teucer in vanilla a few months ago when I started, I adored him and my friends feared him, as they’ve now learned to fear the Myrmidons!! So I really wanted to include them as my long range support. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
