I like the HGL best when you can bombard the enemy with a primary pool, while using a secondary pool to maneuver Specialists like a Pathfinder or Auxilia FO to focus on objectives. The only challenge I see here is that if you use the Crocman Hidden Deployment to full effect, you'll miss out on two Orders for using that HGL in Turn 1, when the enemy is all crowded within their DZ. If you deploy them as tokens, you sacrifice some of the effectiveness of Hidden Deployment. A bit of a conundrum. One option might be to consider NeoTerra. Many of the units you're using are available to the NCA Sectorial. On the whole though, the lists are certainly playable. Have you tried using them in any games yet?
I've just played the first list once, whith great success, but the HMG MULTI does more dmg than the HGL, the HGL is really just here to mess with the head of the other player. My own fear are more the death of my Lt, its why the second list is about having chain of command (and EM LGL :p) and speculo killers as for NCA, its a possibility but I really like croc mens :p (the last list more fun is NCA) I always use croc men as token, If I go second the hexa might hiden tho
If you really want to play with Soldiers of Fortune then you really should pull Joan out for Vanilla. The ability to run this: PanOceania ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 1 7 4 JOAN OF ARC Lieutenant MULTI Rifle, Nanopulser / Pistol, DA CCW. (+1 | 50) WARCOR (Aerocam) Flash Pulse / Stun Pistol, Knife. (0 | 3) WARCOR (Aerocam) Flash Pulse / Stun Pistol, Knife. (0 | 3) WARCOR (Aerocam) Flash Pulse / Stun Pistol, Knife. (0 | 3) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, Shock CCW. (0 | 8) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, Shock CCW. (0 | 8) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, Shock CCW. (0 | 8) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, Shock CCW. (0 | 8) 1 SWC | 91 Points Open in Infinity Army And then pair it up with Nisse or Aquila for "death through smoke lol" fun is just glorious. For that mission linup you add in a couple of Croc Men to help push buttons in Unmasking and you've basically got a list right there. As far as the NCA Squalo (or even Vanilla Squalo... but I'd go NCA if you really want to do HGL fun) is concerned make sure you are getting a Pathfinder and EVO Hacker in there so you can Sat-Lock targets on the cheap, along with 3 Fugazi for orders and as Flash Pulse AROs and Sniffer layers. An Engineer with Palbot and Hexas KHD to cover the TAG are probably also well worth running.
