    I came up with the following after some thought

    The Overdron makes for a pretty immovable roadblock and can help against any msv pieces that the Anathematic might struggle against, and the Oznat is there to deal with any annoying markers that might hinder the Anathematic's advance into the midline. The Q-Drone is a solid ARO piece and can be a throwaway attack if need be.

    The Shrouded, Caliban, and Malignos should hopefully help establish a midline presence that will be reinforced with the anathematic in the first turn (you'd probably want to deploy the malignos outside of hidden employment, both to give extra orders and just to muddy the waters more on what's what)

    Another possbility is dropping the Malignos for a Shrouded FO, and dropping the Slave Drone in order to replace one R-Drone with a Seed Soldier.

    I'm not really sure which one I like more

    I like how the new rules work in terms of what used to be dropping TO Camo down to Normal Camo. Now, it's just "camo" and they won't know what the mimetism modifier is until they try to discover it.

    I am not sure. Under the CAMO State in the rulebook:

    Hmm, actually that does seem odd. From this, it would seem that mimetism is open information regardless of camo state, but the private information rules contradict that. Off to the Rules subforum...

    This is why the official tokens have -3, -6 or no mod printed on them.

    Yup. No more hiding your Malignos as Shrouded anymore.

    More to the point, you know what model the Libertos is because its the only one with no mod on its marker.

    Can confirm: Dashat libertos now overwhelmingly best libertos. However, all fish still good fish.
