I’m getting a little tired of the Kesotsu+Tanko MSL+Brawler MSV MSR. So i’m going to be doing a Druze+Tanko core. Has anyone been using it and how do you use it? Below is what I’m thinking of trying out. Ikari Druze ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 8 2 3 DRUZE (X Visor) Combi Rifle, Chain-colt, Panzerfaust / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0 | 25) DRUZE (X Visor) Combi Rifle + Light Grenade Launcher (E/M and Nimbus) / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 27) DRUZE Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Combi Rifle + Pitcher, D-Charges / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0 | 25) DRUZE (X Visor) Shock Marksman Rifle, Chain-colt / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0 | 27) TANKŌ Missile Launcher / Pistol, Monofilament CC Weapon, Shock CC Weapon. (1.5 | 32) KARAKURI Mk12, Chain Rifle, D.E.P. / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 43) WÚ MÍNG HMG / Pistol, Knife.

Done. "Downgrade" the Brawler AHD to a Toku Eng.

Actually you could keep him if you dropped the panzerfaust on the first druze, I thought the HMG was 30 points not 29
I love the Panzer too much! Nothing like having several missiles going off! Besides the Toku is better than the Brawler. I only took it to be a Duo with the Lt.
If you wanted to use the Wu Ming more directly, you could even double down on them for a haris like this: Ikari Company ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 7 1 2 WÚ MÍNG (Fireteam: Haris) Chain Rifle, Submachine Gun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 25) WÚ MÍNG (Forward Observer) Boarding Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 31) WÚ MÍNG HMG / Pistol, Knife. (2 | 39) KRAKOT RENEGADE 2 Chain Rifles, Grenades / Pistol, DA CC Weapon.

(0 | 16) DESPERADO Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / 2 Assault Pistols, CC Weapon. (0 | 13) GROUP 2 5 1 2 DRUZE HMG, Chain-colt / Viral Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 29) DRUZE (X Visor) Combi Rifle + Light Grenade Launcher (E/M and Nimbus) / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 27) DRUZE (X Visor) Combi Rifle, Chain-colt, Panzerfaust / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0 | 25) DRUZE Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Combi Rifle + Pitcher, D-Charges / Viral Pistol, Knife. (0 | 25) TANKŌ Missile Launcher / Pistol, Monofilament CC Weapon, Shock CC Weapon. (1.5 | 32) YUAN YUAN Chain Rifle, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 8) 5.5 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army Depending on how active or passive you want to be, or whether you want to be pressing buttons or not, you can mix and sub out weapons from the links as you please. The order split is a bit awkward, but the Yuan Yuan or Desperado can be subbed out to give an extra regular order to pool 1 if you're not going to rely on the smoke from one (or both). Basic idea here is that the Druze would form a defensive wall with with the ability to clean up late game, while the Wu Ming push forward and kick down doors (for this reason, the AP Mines profile might actually be really useful here).
I think it might depend on the mission but I do like that! It's always tempting to do do 2 Karakuri too :)
I've had a lot of luck running the Druze + Tanko link. My suggestion is to include the Haris profile so if the link breaks, you can reform as a Haris, though it does suck paying 1 SWC for the profile. The only alternative is to reform into Duos, or bring an EVO for TeamPro.
