Running the Faction...

I usually play with 13 regular orders and at least 10 camo marker (2 spetsnaz, 1 or 2 TH, 2 chasseur FO, 1 Foxtrot + 1 to 3 more SK (hardcase, scout BS)), more if possible

 

I use camo in every list, but I have been playing a lot of single combat groups lately. I have a tendency to slow play and over-think, so I limit the amount of orders I need to handle in a game, and it has the pleasant side effect of making my list immune to the first turn order reduction.

 

I know this might not apply to you, but as a frequent USAr player I tend to run about 15 - 18 orders.

I'll try and have 1-2 Foxtrot FO, and a Hardcase if possible. It usually ends up being about 4 camo tokens, but I have played up to 6-8. USAr's camo choices though, in my opinion, are less optimal than vanilla. You get a lot more value out of running some of the bike models, the Grunt link, or a harris so there ends up being less camo overall.

 

As a CHA collector, I find my list is 12 Regular, 2 Irregular, and 1 Ex Impetuous. Around 4 camo tokens.

 

I do both. This is my standard tournament list and I yet have to lose a game with it:

Open in Infinity Army


The alternative setup drops the Sniper Spetsnaz and adds a Dog Warrior and an Irmadinho.

 

Under normal circumstances I tend to combine camo and order spamming.
In case the mission is killy I tend to forgo order spamming and concentrate on fielding camo en masse. (Still working with two groups and at least 15 orders...)
