(0 | 29) 6 SWC | 298 Points Open in Infinity Army Start with the Ninja as a regular camo token for 15 on the table (or don't, you do you). You could also replace one of the Hunduns with the MMR loadout and the Ninja with a Libertos and give the Long Yas HSGs, and go for a full 16 camo markers to start. For what it's worth, I think both of those variants can work, even if they are meme-lists. The vanilla one is probably the most balanced of the bunch, although without a high burst medium-long range gun available, you have to rely a lot on the Daofei (and after he probably dies, the Zhencha) to break enemy lines. Also, remember that the Daofei's PH14 means he can infiltrate onto the enemy side of the table on a not-entiretly-terrible 11. It's a bit of a hail mary, but can be worth the risk sometimes. The White Banner version gets a spitfire fueled by a Lt order and can suss out camo markers with its Sensorbot, but is more vulnerable on the defensive because of its front-line Lt who also really wants to actively use the order. Both lists can suffer if they deploy second, as the opponent can use their own camo markers to limit the deployment of your mines. The presence of enemy sensors can also gut this before it gets going. That said, if you do deploy first, the midfield becomes basically untouchable for most enemy skirmishers. As a whole, I think the vanilla version is a slight bit better overall. In either case though, these aren't the kind of lists you can bring all the time. You whip them out every once in a while to keep it in the back of your opponents' head.
I, too have thought of a full camo list, but with a trap: Code: EwBgrAPgzCIQYgVwDbIAQGMCGBbA9mgC4BOeqEAHAKQCMYAnMFWBQCxMCE1djzbAbFQ40atBoJb8QQkWPoSKUmaJ4KlwleL5gA7ENZjFzHfKHAVUvSx3Vhh0bv5R9hiSYMABL0A= That zhanshi alone in a rooftop? Must be the lieutenant!
Honestly, my first assumption in a situation like that would be a Tian Guo. I'd probably leave it alone unless an easy opportunity to kill an order popped up.
So, I'm now obsessed with making a list with 3 fireteams with a jammer inside each and every single one of them work (theoretically, at least). I've come down with this monstrosity: 3x Jammers ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 QIANG GĀO (Lieutenant L2) HMG, Nanopulser / 2 x Breaker Pistol, Knife.

(0 | 24) 5.5 SWC | 299 Points Open in Infinity Army There is a high chance it needs more specialists to do stuff, but those Tactical Awareness orders are just so intoxicating to pass up. You have one extra order in every fireteam and I would disguise the Holo 1s as a regular combi rifle Zhanshi, a combi rifle Jujak and another combi rifle Jujak since that would bring the fake point costs to 304... Obviously, that doesn't add up, but hopefully the opponent thinks just one of them is an actual Tian Gou and surprise ensues.
I did another random mission Comlog and got Safe Area and created two lists. One going for numbers, the other for durability. Of the two, I like list 1 more. List 1 Here’s what I came up with for it. I need defenders and attackers. The Long Ya are defenders of the zones and consoles of on my half of the table. They already start with a mine and +4in up. After mines are gone, go in to suppression. The a core of Zhanshi with Tian Gou as back up defenders. Main attackers for the enemy half and consoles are the pair of Guilang and Daofei. Rui Shi that can be both if needed, a doctor to try to keep guys up in zones.

(0 | 20) 5.5 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army I tried to get a Shang-Ji Tinbot in there, but it's just far too expensive if I don't want to detract from the theme. One Weibing and one Husong can be traded for a Shang-Ji TinTaWare at which point I'd note that if the obvious LT risks being assassinated you put the LT in the Fireteam and let it look like an Obvious Jammer while you put the Tian Gou outside the Fireteam to look like an obvious LT. In this version of the list, however, you trust the Jammer to prevent anyone from assassinating the LT - or if you expect to have visits from an impersonator you box in either the LT or the Jammer with a protective layer of mines from the Long Ya so that the Speculo/Fiday has to shoot you and can't use the superior melee ability. If orders feel short, a Weibing could be split into two Chaiyi which also gives a method of reducing an assassination attempt by body-blocking with low-importance troops, though I think for many missions two Weibing might be needed to push buttons. This list will probably only work if you have access to multi-level buildings.
