We have a fun tournament coming with fat yuan yuan mission and I want one of my list to be heavily defensive : focus on defensive troop + some specialist to do the mission Here is my first try (fat yuan yuan is available for free and will go in group so I will have order) : Come at me ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 5 4 JOAN OF ARC Lieutenant Spitfire, Nanopulser / Pistol, AP CCW. (1 | 51) CROC MAN (Forward Observer, Deployable Repeater) Combi Rifle, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 32) ZULU-COBRA Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Breaker Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 28) MONSTRUCKER Submachine Gun, Chain Rifle, Drop Bears / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 13) TRAUMA-DOC Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 14) PALBOT Electric Pulse. (0 | 3) TECH-BEE (Remote Assistant Level 1, Specialist Operative) Flash Pulse / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 5) WARCOR (Sixth Sense L1) Flash Pulse / Stun Pistol, Knife. (0 | 3) HELOT MILITIAMAN Submachine Gun, Light Rocket Launcher / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 9) PATHFINDER DRONBOT Combi Rifle, Sniffer / Electric Pulse. (0 | 16) GROUP 2 3 SIERRA DRONBOT HMG / Electric Pulse. (1 | 25) SWISS GUARD Missile Launcher, Light Shotgun / Pistol, AP CCW. (2 | 69) HEXA MULTI Sniper Rifle / Pistol, Electric Pulse. (1.5 | 32) 6 SWC | 300 Points Open in Infinity Army The base concept is simple : swiss ML, Hexa Sniper and Sierra HMG will force my opponent to waste order while my specialists (croc man, zulu cobra, pathfinder) focus on doing the objectives (catching pigs, stealing noodles, drinking beer). Any advice ?
The biggest issue you are going to face is running into another solid defense that you can't simply bypass. With no Eclipse Smoke you can't simple ignore something like a Haidao Sniper in a full Fireteam with decent lanes you need to cross. Joan is an ok answer to some of these situations ('though you will sometimes cry for lack of ability to get into Spitfire range), but she's too valuable to the list to risk. You probably want to have another gun option (and possibly downgrade Joan to the regular version to make up some of the points and the SWC you need.) with a HMG on a better platform to be able to actually bully your way past these kinds of challenges.
