Him being an AD you will mostly use the irregular order till his death because he can often actually do something with it. So in my opinion its not a problem on the cube jäger.
Again, a big thanks to the contributors on this thread, all good stuff. I have my second 'proper' game with Spiral coming up on Wednesday. We are playing the Sabotage mission from the back of the Daedelus' Fall book as part of a 4 game campaign, the mission is basically the same as Looting and Sabotaging. I am going to try the Kiel-Saan and 2 Draal triad. I haven't fielded the Kiel-Saan yet, so this should be fun and he should be good at smashing the box. I have a second triad with Kriigel and 2 Reex, and a third "stand and the back and don't get killed" Taagma and Kaeltar.
Of course! I didn't save my first few lists but I started saving them from the last 2 events. The first set below was a Limited Insertion Tournament with about 10 players If I remember that right. The missions were Supplies, Frontline and Acquisition. I ended up tying vs Shas on Acquisition and getting a major on Supplies vs JSA and Frontline vs Ramah. Overall I placed 1st that tournament although in part that was because the player who was about to win first got a bit of bad luck streak in his last game and ended up tying as well and I had more OP.

The missions were Frostbyte, (Dog) Rescue, and Capture and Protect. I got a major vs Ikari on Frostbyte, a minor vs USA on (Dog) Rescue and a major vs JSA on Capture and Protect. Dog Rescue was a modified version of Rescue, you can find it in Comlog if you hit the mission menu in the upper right and choose "Dogfinity" under mission packs. It was a charity event for a dog rescue (we ended up raising almost $4k which was awesome).

Oh God.......am I suppose to know what KH/JdA/GdF stands for? lol Please tell me what those stand for, the curiosity is killing me.
Knights Hospitaller/ Joan d Arc/ Gabriel de Fersen I was curious too but when u saw it was about MO that was all i needed.
Nobody has sung the praises of the Kriigel here really, is this because he's so obviously a "Good?" These guys have been my MVP in the Spiral Corps games I've played so far. I take two with the smoke LGL; one is my LT bunkered with Reex and ready to support combat group one's advance, and the other is in with the Tricore. Everyone is afraid to approach and get hit with an Eraser once or twice as they move into position. In a force where most of your firepower falls out of range outside of 24" these guys seem essential to getting into good board control positions. Smoke and mirrorball allow you to cross firelanes unmolested, and again allows you to setup your most favourable engagement. My last game was Acquisition against a LI invincible army, one of these guys chucking smoke and mirrorball allowed me to out maneuver to the point where in my second turn I was able to spend six orders and isolate four orders from his pain train, effectively rendering his army useless.
I guess (and advice) a Marksman Draal. my favourite triad ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 3 DRAAL (Minelayer) AP Marksman Rifle, D-Charges, Antipersonnel Mines / Viral Pistol, Knife.

Bingo! This is my main "get shit done" squad. The bonus burst and BS on the aggressive Draal, and sixth sense on the Eraser boy make this squad terrifying. I've been running this, which is admittedly an iteration of what RobertShepard posted and talked about on White Noise. I simply replaced some of his irregular orders (Helots) with the Kuiitan E/Mauler (who I think is a fantastic piece). This list allows me to swap the Kerail and Warcore for a Clipsos and/or Kumotail depending on the mission. I believe that everyone is "laid out" per their Triads.
