One combat group?

Depending on the mission, I think it's important to have a doctor and we have some of the best. So I made sure to have it in with a helper. So I go heavy metal. It's hard not to do a full Zuyong team! McMurrough is almost an unhackable heavy too. Velerya on her own to upgrade the Rui Shi. Zhencha because I need some form of mid-field. Fasid for defending.

Rui-Shi/Valerya/Zuyong Haris, Maggie, and some other shenanigans. Bashi can be swapped out for another Ghulam. I just liked the idea of it downgrading to Holo1 and pretending to be a Ghulam. Use it as bait for someone going at the throat to get an Lt. kill.

 

This has almost everything I want in a list redundant fireteam member, 2 badass infiltrators, amazing doctor and most importantly mcmurder. The only thing left would be swapping some bits around to get my libertos freedom fighters in but thats not for LI.

I used this list over the weekend for a tournament featuring Decapitation and Show of Force. It performed quite admirably, admittedly with a bit of luck involved:

Tactical Awareness on the Maghariba really pushes this over the top. Effectively thirteen orders plus potentially McMurrough's impetuous is a ton for a single combat group. It's a tough, resilient, and potentially extremely compact list but you still have a ton of orders to work with as long as you can preserve your Tactical Awareness pieces. And with a throwaway Zuyong ML to hold the line at the start of the game, it isn't too challenging to do so. Even if it dies you still have a full Core team, a big tough TAG, and a murder dog. McMurrough and the tinbot give you an out against enemy hacking or CC and you might just roll something silly on the Bounty Hunters.

Limited Insertion may be a bit limiting for Dahshat because it edges out a lot of our fantastic cheap options, but it's still something Dahshat can do well in the right scenarios.
