I really, really like the vargar and wish I could figure out a good list with a 5 man core of them but they really seem better as a Haris or solo. Very toolboxy but can’t really handle active turn of aro by themselves. The problem is that I can’t really figure out what to support them with, especially in aro. I’m loathe to rely on flash pulse bots because I run into a lot of total immunity. The standard TR bot might be the best bet?
It's been confirmed that up to two Orcs can join any Core Fireteam (the note only shows up for Fusiliers and Orcs right now). So that may be something to play with to experiment with Fireteam composition.
Well... I give you a third option with Orc Feuerbach Core, Hospitaler HMG Haris and Karhu Akimbo Feuerbach Engi Duo Svalarheima’s Winter Force ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 KNIGHT HOSPITALLER HMG / Pistol, DA CCW.

Just an FYI / IMO: you have 0,5SWC and 3 pts left, why not make the BSG ORC a BSG+Tinbot ORC? Your Knight hacker would benefit from that really well.
One could also consider replacing Quinn with the Infirmarer to have a medic in each linkteam. Nice list. Subtle as a brick, but I like it.
Is there an actual fireteam list for WinterFor somewhere? Or is i dropping soonish? I was always told you should take the notes in army only as reminders and not the definitive rules.
ARMY is the definitive rules right now for Svala. Also I don't know anyone noticed it but they removed the Fireteam:Haris skill from the ORCs' general skill and it is only available on the special profiles.
That loadout was there before, but it was redundant because every ORC got the Haris skill. Now they restricted it to the dedicated haris profiles (at least those are the tin bot versions)
That's... weird, to say the least. Why take a decent, easy-to-play HI and take its most useful skill away? Though, on a second note, one could still take 2 ORCs in a Varg Haris for a very good offensive piece.
Orcs can only join fireteam:core, so I think it is impossible if you meant a haris with two orcs and a varg :(
They didn't take it away completely, just restricted to loadouts. Perhaps having the HMG/Feuerbach ORC a Haris enabler (for free) was too much
Oh yeah, you're right. This is still possible, though: Svalarheima’s Winter Force ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 3 VARG (Forward Observer) Heavy Rocket Launcher, Light Shotgun / Pistol, CC Weapon.

(0.5 | 39) 2.5 SWC | 109 Points Open in Infinity Army But this doesn't look like the best option for running a HI-focused SWF list.
This is also legal luckyly: Svalarheima’s Winter Force ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 3 ORC (Fireteam: Haris, Mountain Terrain, Climbing Plus) Boarding Shotgun + 1 TinBot A (Deflector L1) / Pistol, Knife.

(0.5 | 30) 1 SWC | 95 Points Open in Infinity Army
Could you explain the use of Antipersonnel mines in such a Haris? Me being a newbie, I'd take a Nökken or two for them instead of a Varg.
If this can help, I made those diagrams for the French community in order to help everyone insterested in SWF to understand which FT you can make and which ones are illegal (they are in French but I don't think you need to speak French to understand them): Note that only 1 KoJ can be a Wildcard trooper.
It is for the K1 MarksMan Rifle not for the minelayer ability. Rangebands and ARM killing potential (but mostly the range bands).
