Hi All, I'm joining an escalation league in my area. First game is next week, 100 Pts, 2 SWC. I'm toying around with my list. No Lieutenants, No Advanced Rules (hacking,links, etc). I know the common suggestion is Vol and/or Highlander spam, but any suggestion for lists? I have a couple. 100pt Escalation ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 3 3 2 CAMERONIAN 2 Chain Rifles, Grenades, Smoke Grenades / AP CCW. (0 | 25) HIGHLANDER GREY T2 Rifle, 2 Light Shotguns, Grenades, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, CCW. (0 | 33) CATERAN T2 Sniper Rifle / Pistol, AP CCW. (1 | 24) VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 6) VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 6) HIGHLANDER Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 6) 1 SWC | 100 Points Open in Infinity Army Or 100pt Escalation Camo ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 3 1 SCOT (2nd Battalion) CH: Camouflage Missile Launcher / Assault Pistol, Knife.

4 Orders is just not fun, no matter the points. And the advice is there for a reason. The first list doesn't work either because too much of it is irregular and you can't even convert orders with command tokens without advanced rules. Caledonian Highlander Army ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 7 1 1 VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 6) VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife.

100pt Escalation ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 5 2 HIGHLANDER GREY T2 Rifle, 2 Light Shotguns, Grenades, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, CCW. (0 | 33) VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 6) VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 6) VOLUNTEER Chain Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife.

(0 | 3) 1 SWC | 100 Points Open in Infinity Army This is the list I went with in the end. Not bad for round 1. Managed to tie in Objective points against Varuna. Poor dice rolls and the lack of linked team did me in.
