Hey everybody, I'm new to the game and Yu Jing. We just started a build up campaign and I decided to go with vanilla Yu Jing, as I like the idea and model of the Hac To. I tried myself on my first 300p list and wanted some advice from some more experienced Yu Jing players.

Not enough orders for all three of your big guys, imo. I think swapping the Hac Tao to the HMG and the Yan Huo to the Neurocinetics Missile Launcher version alleviates all of the main problems I see right now -- not enough orders for the big guys, limited mobility on the long range piece, weak reactive turn. The short range Hac Tao options almost require a full combat group to support them because they have only close range weapons and no way of getting up the board except walking there.
It's fine for a new player's limited insertion list. @meikyoushisui 's ideas are all good though. Once you play a few games you are likely to move further from Zhanshis to Kuang Shi or Keisotsu to save points.
Thank you guys for the tips. What is the order count a big guy wants? 5 or more? I tried to build something which supports the big guys more. The Yan Huo should help me with ARO right? Do you think the get enough orders with this and what would you pack for the remaining 18p?: Hello? ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 9 4 HAC TAO (Executive Order) HMG, Nanopulser / Pistol, DA CCW.

All heavy hitters want 10 orders. I think what they are referring to is that the first list had 3 heavy hitters sharing 10 orders, which means that likely one of them won't do their job (one primary hitter, one backup and the last one is the third wheel unless your opponent seriously over-extends and you can make use of the full range of your deployment zone)
