Bayara doesn't need fireteams, or anything else, really, to be good. They're amazing DZ counter-assassins as it is, especially in a mission like Decap. You can count the amount of troopers that get past them on one hand.
I had the game yesterday and unfortunately, I guess, he never got anyone close to ST and Bayara. So I couldn't really see how it works. I won the Lt. And chose deployment. I had a pretty defensive list. I used Kuang Shi team for the first time in a long time. Actually the ability to have troops 10" from leader was pretty good. I was able spread them out to defend. I also used the Long Wang again in duo with Shenji. The LW was good. Other than the BSA-3, he's no frills and a bit boring but he's not bad. I just think he's a bit too expensive for what he does. My MBH rolled up an HMG! That was super fun. I made good use of him rather than the LW at first. Edit: here's the list for anyone interested.
