    Yeah... that's pretty much the list I want to build to complement the Alg Core + soloists list I posted earlier.

    I built one a while back that had a ML MB that you could use optionally in the link T1 and then reform it without for pushing.

    Hmm I'm even more disappointed in the Corregidor box now... It could have been a Corregidor / StarCo Box so easily:

    I'd happily recommend that as a Corregidor purchase.

    I'd consider the HMG as an autoinclude in this fireteam as well as the BSG Brigada. I'm only unsure about the third member either Multi+LFT for the DTW or the TinBot guy who surprisingly comes with a 0.5 SWC tax (contrary to the Riot Grrl's TinBot profile) which is strange since this special Link seems to be meant for midfield action.

    That's normal for troops that actually follow the design standards.

    It's indeed within the design standards.
    If you can put a hacker in an HI Fireteam with TinBot that profile costs 0.5 SWC (exceptions: Hector, Janissaries). Hence no SWC cost for the Grrls. I'm again surprised.

    I'd go with BSG Deadpool. Which means that you already have a BSG. I'd tend to the Multi as a result.

    And yeah, Grrls are stupid. It's why I advocate increasing the versatility of 'standard HI' by increasing more multi purpose profiles: simple things like a 1SWC Tinbot Hacker profile for ORCs, Shan-ji and MB.

    I would choose eithet MULTI and BSG Senor, or BSG and Breaker Senor. I wouldn't give up a mid range gunner but you might want to save the points and have it on Massacre.

    I have a preference for BSG on Massacre because I don't want to have yet another vital role on his shoulders. I want to ensure his safety for smoke, spec fire and CC. Although you can always doctor him if you aren't risking DA or similar rounds (shock immune).

    BSG + CC / Smoke also synergises well in a stopper role on a short fire lane.

    Delay then Engage vs a DTW or FTF with B2 BS21 vs a BS attack.

    From my experience with the Riot Grrls I can tell the BSG on an HI is the better option mainly because of the 2nd Wound. And then there is a 5% higher chance to get crits with the BS 13 Brigada compared to Sr. Massacre. Also the Breaker Combi Rifle brings you another lever for your Fireteam to surpass insanely armoured opponents.

    See I'd say that a DTW on a HI is a better option because of the higher ARM and second wound means a higher likelihood of tanking a Normal roll BS Attack. And 18 vs 19 (assuming cover) is the same odds of critting.

    And I'd value the Shock for dealing with NWI/Dogged over the Breaker given Multi also gets AP for dealing with high ARM opponents (particularly since most things with ARM5+ are BTS6+ so you usually end up within 5%).

    Tl;dr there's advantages either way depending on what you / your meta favours most.

    Hence my thought to scrap the TinBot Brigada for a Multi+LFT one. No hacking deterrent though. But you'll have ammunition for every occassion :)

    So to hijack this abit.
    I have a small game coming up tomorrow and I was wondering what you thought of this list.
    I have not made the second list yet however.
    So the missions are
    Frontline
    Safe Area
    Deadly Dance
    Acquisition
    And SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE is in effect so I expect lots of PanO

    I have this list

    Are you expecting to face said aleph list? Cause my advice would be to maybe give up one order to fit in a Lunokhod against some HI/odd/TO/PanO/Achilles in board control missions like you'll play. But the list looks good regardless i'd say.

    It's all right there in the profile really.
    - Fast midfield with koala's
    - repeater for Uhahu
    - burn odd/TO
    - around the corner peeking: Flame or Heavy shotty
    - I'd even consider the always funny Akrylat against a multi rifle achilles, but that's just me. Let him run in/shoot a pleb, go frenzy, lose cover and bam! outrange him with the gluerocket :-) What could possibly go wrong?
    + you have some good and quick engineers.

    Also - again just me wondering out loud - i know the MSV2 is tempting and [by most?] considered an auto include, but it's not. Not with two Lunokhods! I vastly prefer burning camo/etc. to trying to hit them with a snper that's gonna be a high priority target anyway. And last I heard PanO doesn't have smoke-

    The one time he get's out of Caledonia, I always seriously consider some T2 sniper Cateran action, regardless of the mission. But, a lot of panO means prolly visors, so might not be the best.

    Hope it's useful. Seeing your list i recon our playstyles don't really align. So my advice might be of limited use, i'm more of a LI player. So for the sake of variation if you're still looking for inspiration on a second list:

    Riot datatracker ftw in acquisition. Took this list for some games of late, and a small tournament [got hammered by Neema crits all the way, but what can you do, i'm only human]. Apart from that, i find it to be something of a polyvalent little crew.

    Hello,
    I've got my first tournament (300/6, 12xp Spec Ops) incoming in couple of weeks and I would like to ask for help in second list selection.
    The missions:
    Capture and Protect
    Tic Tac Toe
    Anihillation
    Quadrant Controll
    Supplies

    My first list looks like this:

    After a couple of games I'm rather happy. Strong ARO presence, good units for active turn, lots of wounds, can finish any mission/classified.
    I think that the major weakness of this list is order/camo/smoke spam.
    That's why I was considering this:

    I was thinking about switching Reaktion Zond to MSV2 Sniper but with "free" hacking support it should be more flexible? I also miss some Zond Bots but I honestly don't know how could I fit at least one into the list.
    I would be more than grateful for suggestions and advice :)
