Hey all, There's a small, 3-game tourney taking place end of this month in the lead up to a bigger one in April (Briscon). The specifics are; 2 lists, 300pts, Soldiers of Fortune Missions are; Show of Force, Looting and Sabotage, and Firefight Given the missions are suuuuuuper specialist light, and mercs are involved, I'm looking at running an entirely-for-fun set of lists. I've already had a quick tinker and there are some funny combos available (Ko Dali plus 4 Yuan Yuans for smoke/MSV anywhere on the table, for instance), but I'm keen for some community input. Sadly, my first thought was a 5 TAG Onyx list using 4 Xeos and an Overdron or 3 Xeos and 2 Overs - but sadly you don't end up with enough points to actually field a lieutenant :( So, hit me with any funny options I should consider.
I liked your Avatar +75 points of human zombies idea... It makes for something truly absurd, like this sort of thing: Combined Army ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 3 5 MED-TECH OBSIDON MEDCHANOID Combi Rifle, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife.

You are a bad person and should seek spiritual guidance. Were we on the same continent, I’d seek you out for a game; this is exactly the sort of nonsense we need more of!
I'm going to go "Full Stallard" on this one. The thought process was; *looks at Onyx AVAs* *notices Xeodrons are AVA4* *buys a second box of Xeodrons* But now the surprise impact will be lost on Leviathan :(
No-one seems to of mentioned it yet... ...AVA is Total on Pretas and Gakis in vanilla. That is all from me.

I know these are not supposed to be so serious, but it seems that all those gaki could be better as ikadrons/R-Drones for the repeater coverage: Combined Army ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 Bit Hacker (UPGRADE: Expel) Submachine Gun + Pitcher, Deployable Repeater + KISS! / Pistol, Knife.

Smoke, a pack of Hungries and the Big Bad Wolf. Then, add some MSV...

Won 1 game of 3, but scored player's choice "Best Army". 2nd list swapped out the Nexus Hacker and Warcor for Kerr Nau.
This was a Soldiers of Fortune tournament so everyone could use whatever mercs they wanted. :) I ran an Anaconda in mine.
