That's exactly my trouble... for now i plan yo proxy à few games tout try it out. For example, what i like about CHA is thé fact that it's a whole new gameplay in comparison with my Bromad force, low tech, no hack. For JSA, i like being able to yell "TETSUOOOO" but the "techy" side and elite touch (i mean not 20orders spam like CHA) seem similar to Nomads. I really like MO, but i really wish there was some FT with teutonic knights and FK. I guess if i had to chose à secondaru criteria, i'd go for agressive and less mindgame / techy than Nomads (or else i'd go corregidor).
Yup that's my Idea, even though Space samurai are awesome. Now with the long awaited Tunguska UP, i'm seeing a lot of things i like for my Bromad force. Bikes, and two CC specialists (perseus and Raoul) they're not Domaru Level CC specialists but they bring some slashy slashy to the cart. And that's à nice touch ;)
You mean something like this (I would like to try it in direct op for fun once) ?

Last time someone posted a list like that (although it was more "serious", with Grey HMG + Vol Core and I think something else for utility/scoring and less warbands), people started throw fits and proclaim how much Infinity is broken, suggesting "I will demand correct minis for every trooper" as a counter to that list.
My own OCD would compel me to convert the hell out of all those Galwegians. I don't like having two models with the same pose on the table. Was bad enough in 40k, but thankfully I didn't play Orks or Guard...
So sad this fourth group.... But the List pretty much counter itself as you will have a hard Time déploying all that, even with proxies. And it lacks some range too, but for sure it needs to be tested !!
Yeah, you don't need to counter a list that counters itself. If Wallace dies, the whole thing falls apart, and if you go second, the other player gets to play shooting gallery.
Imperial Service gets AVA3 TR HMGs and AVA2 TR Combis. Good thing it's all Chain Rifles. If it was plain rifles, you'd want that list to go first. It's death to step in front of 20+ rifle AROs, even if they're hitting you on 1s.
Did you perchance forget the AVA2 MSV2 spitfire remotes (possibly with an evo and overclock running)?
I did, actually, but you're running into SWC limits pretty quickly. Not to mention you lose at least one of the TR combis.

True but it is doable and taking a Hsien Lt can ease up the pain from SWC limits. It's offering some fun silly list ideas for me at least.
Silly in terms of recreating battles from WW1, maybe... (though I do have a set of rules for that, down at the 1 mini = 1 man skirmish scale no less!)
Fair point. Those rules sound interesting... I'm trying to remember too many rules systems already but that does sound intriguing. All that said however, enough derailing the thread. My apologies for going off topic.
Although incidentally if you want to do CC, Nomads can do it pretty well Bran do Castro, Morlocks, Chimeras, Jaguars for line troops and now Perseus, all of them are viable CC troops.

The aswuang are excellent in dominating in cc even against superior opponents, with the added benefit of ADHL'ing anyone who is too tough to take. This will allow you to glue your opponent in place while you om, nom, nom. From my experience once anyone with proterion gets in CC, they can simply rambo the rest of the game. You can also drop the gwailos for Cadmus with morpho scan. Another ability which works well with the ADHL of the aswuangs. Especially if it's an opponents heavy CC monster. Suddenly you could have multiple cc threats such as: (Muyamato or Achilles with EXP cc weapons).
