So I'm playing tomorrow vs any of USAriadna, Nomads, Imperial Service or Onyx Contact Force. Scenario undecided but to save time I have devised two lists which include the models I have assembled latests, Djans and Odalisques. Now which one should I run and is there some reasonable changes? Models I'm missing : Warcors, a Yuan Yuan, half the Bashi profiles, a Hafza HRL, Druze and Warface. List 1 : Djan + Odas No Hacker ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 9 1 1 DJANBAZAN HMG / Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 35) DJANBAZAN Sniper Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 31) DJANBAZAN Doctor Plus (MediKit) Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 31) HAFZA (Forward Observer) Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 17) HAFZA Lieutenant Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 16) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, Shock CCW. (0 | 8) AZRA'IL AP HMG / Pistol, Knife. (2 | 41) GHULAM (Forward Observer) Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 13) GHULAM Sniper Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 16) ALGUACIL (Forward Observer, Deployable Repeater) Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 12) GROUP 2 3 1 1 ODALISQUE (Fireteam: Haris) Rifle + Light Shotgun, Nanopulser / Pistol, Knife.

(0 | 8) 6 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army This list brings an AP HMG. While this one brings a bit more orders and two hackers, but the SML is mostly an ARO filler piece. List 2 : Djans + Odas + Hackers ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 9 1 1 DJANBAZAN HMG / Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 35) DJANBAZAN Sniper Rifle / Pistol, Knife.

Funnily enough, I have just started toying with Odas in lists and was also looking for advice. I'm not a huge fan of the Shayatani REM, and haven't played with an Azra'il. Here's my thoughts on a Djan + Oda list: Qapu Khalqi ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 10 DJANBAZAN HMG / Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 35) DJANBAZAN Sniper Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 31) DJANBAZAN Doctor Plus (MediKit) Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 31) HAFZA Heavy Rocket Launcher / Assault Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 18) HAFZA Spitfire / Pistol, Knife. (1 | 22) HAFZA Lieutenant Spitfire / Pistol, Knife. (1 | 22) HAFZA (Forward Observer) Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 17) ODALISQUE (Fireteam: Haris) Rifle + Light Shotgun, Nanopulser / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 25) ODALISQUE Submachine gun, Contender, Nanopulser / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 22) HAWWA' (Forward Observer) Boarding Shotgun, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 21) GROUP 2 1 4 3 LEILA SHARIF Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Shock Marksman Rifle, D-Charges / Breaker Pistol, Knife. (0 | 20) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 8) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 8) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 8) BASHI BAZOUK Submachine Gun, Chain-colt / Pistol, CC Weapon. (0 | 12) 6 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army The combat groups need some work, but I love the Hafza FO and HRL profiles in fire teams. I've had a ton of success sticking them with the Djans. I also enjoy the redundancy of 3 yuan yuan, rather than 2. I have only run the Odas with Ghulam, but have loved the smg profile. If you don't want to run the hafza, I really enjoy 2 smg + haris. [I do think the FO in the haris is better though]. Finally, I'm not a huge fan of Hafza spitfires, so I may end up replacing those somehow.
SMG + Contender looks really solid to me, but in this case I want that specialist in a fast fireteam because otherwise there's very little in the way of specialists moving up the field.
