Asawira

@emperorsaistone please let me know what you think - I'm really treading some uncomfortable waters here. Something to note: I don't have govads and I won't be running them ... maybe one day, but not Sunday. And we're thinking of playing Rescue. Not sure of any other missions yet.

Ohhh, Resue is a tough one. I am facing that in mission in our league myself and still havent decidet yet, how to play it. Having not once played this mission yet, doesnt help either.
Anyways, scrap that list in this case. With Bahram I would say, go with multiple Fidays and as many regular orders you can muster. But also pick some Daylami and Mutts to secure your opponents civvies.

 

Hahaha okay. I'll see if I can run something like this on another mission. I guess we might end up using the 20x20 system, which neither of us has experience with yet. I'll keep you updated and write up a report.

 

Rescue is a hard one indeed, played it today using a Vanilla list vs Ikari and won (the dice gods were good with me too), if you want i can post the list here too.

I like 20x20, especially for new players, ITS can be a lil daunting and some missions requires fine tuning lists, not really easy when you don't know the units already.

 

Well, we've pretty much only played ITS missions, but the people I normally play with have been looking to try something new.Figured we give the 20x20 a shot, but it leaves me in a weird spot list building.

Sunday, we will play one or two 20x20 missions, along with 2 ITS missions. The missions for ITS will be Rescue and Decapitation.

*Edit: I always love taking a look at other lists. I'd love to see what you ran!

 

Love the paint job!
Great work @zappod

 

Okay @emperorsaistone and everyone else:
We decided on 4 missions this weekend. Two ITS and two 20x20.
For ITS, we will be running Decapitation and Unmasking.

I will be running Druze for the 20x20 missions, but I'm not worried about my list there.
I want some feedback regarding the two lists I plan on playing for ITS. Here they are:

I've actually ran the second list before and really liked it. All parts played well together and the Asawira/Muyib Haris cleaned house.

I'm playing against my friend's Vanilla PanO, lead by Joan (again). He's running a couple new lists that he's put a lot of thought in to, so I want to give him a good showing. Any thoughts are appreciated, especially ideas for actually playing the list. I typically think about a game in terms of the objective, with a general idea of how I want to achieve it. That (usually) gets tossed out the window after the first turn.

Having not played either of these ITS Missions yet, what would y'all suggest in terms of strategy? First turn or second? General decision making that might be important?

Thanks in advance!

 

@zappod
Damn man, that's some operative and great job done with painting.

On a side note, I still think those side guards look weird...

 

Well, I've never ran the Ghulam hacker in a core team, and I wanted fairy dust. Normally I run the Barid and I'm thinking I should just leave the hacking to Leila at this point. As for the LGL Muyib, I've ran with and without him. I like the profile a lot, but feel like the visors my opponent can bring will reduce his value too much.

What do you think of this? Follow-up question: (how) can I get as much out of the BSG Ragik? I tend to fail crucial roles and feel a bit better about a spitfire missing.

You can use the Fidays two ways, grabbing the civis or if there's a nice opportunity, go for the kill. The Farzan and the Hawwa are there for grabbing the civis too if needed, my DataTracker was the Barid.

Remember, do your classifield, i used my first turn and a big chunk of the second just to damage my opponent. its a really hard mission, its easy to end with 0-1 points, any point here is gold.

Any other question, just ask!

 

Unmasking and Decapitation are funny missions, Haqq can be quite good for both.

Decapitation: if you pick Vanilla Haqq, go for Saladin, its a obvious Lt, but it doesnt matter for Decapitation, he have NWI too, that's really good and you will get Strategos LVL3. For Vanilla and HB, Fidays are 3x worth his points here (especially with Saladin, you can know who's your opponent Lt. during the deploy phase and put a Fiday just by his side), if you have the first turn, use one to be the Datatracker and kill the Designated Target, you get 5 points with only one order, and use the other(s) for Alpha Strike, kill the Lt (probably with Al-Djabel) and spread chaos among his ranks, bonus if you can lay some mines and impersonate again for more chaos.
Daylamis can be quite good here too, especially if they land the infiltration rolls and lay down some good shotguns.
And remember, its a 16' DZ, things get closer faster.

Don't forget to watch your six, probably AD troopers/HD troopers will appear.

Unmasking: first thing, always try to active at least one console per round but a like to active it just after the second round, because your opponent can take it away, so you will need to protect it or take it once more(worst case scenario). And Hackers get +3 for WIP rolls vs consoles!

My DT was the Asawira, haris with Leila+LGL Muyib. Smoke for advance and grab consoles with Leila, Asawira for killing the Designated Target/Decoys and he's a durable piece, so it's not too easy to kill it, you can even try regen with PH14 your 2Ws.
Lots of AROs, Fiday to kill MSV2 threats, enemy DataTracker and specialists, since you can only activate a console with one specialist, if your opponent have none, he can only cry.
I used the barid lt order for consoles too, farzan for backup and console duty if needed.
If you want, you could change the Govad rifle profile for a BSG and put a Warcor for one more ARO piece, but i like the rifle for that 16' distances and supression if needed (on my game i used it round 3).

It was versus Vanilla Ariadna, i had some lucky (choose the right target with the first console and my opponent pick the 2 Decoys first) and i killed all his specialists by round 2 (so he couldn't unmask my Designated Target).

Don't forget you can speculative fire normal grenades with it, i use it more inside the haris than inside a 5-man link (i use the haris more agressive too, so my links usually don't get too near for speculatives).

BSG Ragik is a odd one, he/she is pretty good vs armored targets if you get behind them but you will need a good position, and AD rolls can fail... a lot... with the BSG deploy from the sides can be a lil tricky, its harder to flank with only a BSG, but the spitfire doesn't need to roll AD too much because of the extra range, i find it better for flanking, even if deploy by an edge.

 

It's interesting that there's only one Asawira list with engineer here.
Pretty scary to think that you can eat that Blitzen ARO. On the other hand, getting said engineer to his targets can be a massive PITA when we're talking about assault link.

What do you folks think on the matter?

 

Hey Greg!

I personally do not use the Ayyar in HB anymore. The reason is, what makes the Ayyar so good in Vanilla, beeing a specialist with two wounds and having decent weaponry, isnt so special in a sectorial anymore. Links provide that combination already so I dont see the point in using him, except I feel like it for no special reason (or because dual Viral Pistols are fun^^). On the other hand, this purely my view of the matter and it is in conjunction with my playstyle which I and everyone else has to find herself. So if you like him so much, use him. Make him work and dont care to much what others say. The same goes for for the list structure.

Having said that, lets get to the missions.
Decapitation: Guard your Lieutanant well. Hiding prone on a rooftop or inside a building with the approaches guarded with mines, Chain Rifles and Shotguns.
The same with your HVT.
Make a Fiday or Infiltrator your Data Tracker for maximum points on the Designated Target. You obviously want first turn for that or your DT is fudge.
If it is really well guarded so you cannot take it out with a suicide mission, then make someone with a LGL your Data Tracker and speculate it to death....boring, order intensive but worth 5 points.

Unmasking:
Is a bit similar to Decapitation. Yur main focus is to take out the HVT with the DT again. But since you have to reveal it first, the Alpha Strike with a Fiday wont work in most cases. A LGL DT is therfore is more useful in this mission. Take Leila with you in the Haris for the +3 bonus and because there might be many hackers around the middle of the table.

Looks solid, but you might struggle against heavy targets. Some AT weaponry might be adviseable, if your meta is known for heavy stuff in 200 point games.
A Camo Infil or Ragik can be useful to, if you find yourself locked in your DZ.

I rarely encounter Blitzens and if I do, I try to avoid them or take them out with something different. Same with ADHL.
If those threats would be more common, a Engineer would find his way in my lists. If a Blitzen immed the Asawira it might very likely be close to the DZ, so the ENG attempt should be doable. In case of beeing glued it will likely already be to far out in the field.

 

Lovely advice! I'll be sure to post a report including my final list asap.

 

So, how were things turnig out to be on sunday?

 

Turns out we had to postpone. My opponent apparently didn't finish school work. Either this coming Thursday or Sunday will be our next game ... Or I might be able to wrangle a random opponent at the game store tonight. I'll keep you updated.

*Update: I’m teaching a new player this Thursday and getting a full game in after that. Also getting games in Saturday/Sunday. Going to a concert Sunday night though, so Battle Reports will be posted by Monday night
