Hi everyone, I'm playing my vanilla panO in a small tournament in a few weeks. The missions will be supremacy, unmasking, and front line or acquisition, it isn't set in stone yet. My plan is to use my standard joan list for supremacy and acquisition/front line as the extra coordinated order helps getting more models into scoring zones and she makes for a durable datatracker for acquisition/front line.

(0.5 | 18) 5 SWC | 299 Points As for unmasking I'm not sure what I want to run, a squalo HGL datatracker seems like a strong choice for easily killing the designated target and decoys while keeping itself relatively safe from harm to score the point for a surviving datatracker too. I tried this list in a practice game against vanilla nomads but had some unfortunate dice that resulted in my hexa getting killed turn 1 and me spending 7 of my 9 orders turn 2 killing a supressive fire hellcat that managed to kill my nisse and crit the squalo in the process. I ended up not having enough orders to get to the consoles while dealing with an intruder sniper prone in marker state atop this tower tucked into the back corner of his dz that could see all approaches to the consoles save for one.
