Just came up with the following list: Kempei going for a stroll ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 KEMPEI (Chain of Command) Boarding Shotgun / Pistol, CCW, Electric Pulse. (0 | 21) SAITO TOGAN (Specialist Operative) Combi Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, EXP CCW, Knife. (0 | 40) ONIWABAN Lieutenant Boarding Shotgun, Nanopulser / Pistol, Monofilament CCW. (1 | 41) ONIWABAN Submachine Gun, Nanopulser / Pistol, Monofilament CCW. (0 | 37) NINJA Combi Rifle / Pistol, Shock CCW, Knife. (0 | 34) NINJA Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Tactical Bow / Pistol, DA CCW, Knife. (0 | 29) NINJA Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Tactical Bow / Pistol, DA CCW, Knife. (0 | 29) RYŪKEN (CH: Limited Camouflage) Heavy Rocket Launcher, Antipersonnel Mines / Heavy Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 23) RYŪKEN (CH: Limited Camouflage) Heavy Rocket Launcher, Antipersonnel Mines / Heavy Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 23) RYŪKEN (CH: Limited Camouflage) Heavy Rocket Launcher, Antipersonnel Mines / Heavy Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 23) 5.5 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army Anyone tried something like that? All camo or almost all camo with JSA? How did it go? Seems like a pain in the ass to deal with. Cheers
I don't know, seems very fragile as soon as some teamplates are laid down. Sensor can also ruin your day. Also, very few orders unless you start with every Ninja in marker state instead of using Hidden Deployment. Apart from that, migh be fun to try that just once for the lulz.
I played all camo list with shassvastii in one group... any impeteous shit with chain rifle ruins your day... :( You try to advance - but here stands impteous guy-> throw smoke to advance, fail rolling smoke ->try again-> move->do your staff->go camo , otherwise shit with chain rifle shall murder you....eeh... Very hard to play in my opinion....
I would replace the Kempei for KHD Aragoto and the Combi Rifle Ninja for a KHD Ninja. This way you can put ALL your troopers in marker state. (And you get one more specialist to push buttons.) As far as I know, CoC only works if your Lt dies, but will not work if your Lt is in Hidden Deployment... KHD has access to Cybermask and Sensor will not work against impersonation. Just sayin'... Yojimbo looks just jolly good, I would swap him for the CoC Kempei day in day out... Regarding the playability of the list: It will be fun to play but will pale shy in comparison to Ariadna... You will heavily miss heavy weaponry, that is long-range guns with high burst... (JSA is rather starving in this regard even under normal circumstances, but your list lacks even Spitfires and similar guns...) HRL Ryukens are one-shot wonders. As @Abrilete and @sorniak pointed out, you will have problems with template weapons. Deploy your troops carefully preferably in hardly accessible spots, and go backsabbing or shooting them in the back. Tactical Bow is silent. The list looks the best JSA can get in this regard (or one pretty close to), will be fun to play and hard to win with. Enjoy!
I was thinking of using only Marker state. KHD Aragoto can use Cybermask? I thought that Impetuous forbids. To be honest Yojimbo never worked for me. I always prefer to pay more for Saito or Shinobu to get smoke. Some how he was even more order intesive in my gameplay.
You're right, my bad. Totally forgot Aragotos being impetuous. Thank you for correcting me! Indeed, Jimbo is very, very order intensive, but in the list above, you will have an ample amount of orders to invest in him.
