Default 1850: Dual pathfinders and infantry!

[hr]
[hr]

HQ 1: Lightning Blade config Shas'El - Plasma Rifle, CIB, Targetting Array, HWMT
Total: 100 points
[size=7pt]If my markerlights seem to stick around, I might switch the TA to a twinned plasma rifle, or another gun, and use the lights to get to BS5.[/size]

[hr]

Elite 1: 6x Stealth Shas'ui
Total: 180 points
[size=7pt] Basic, maxed out stealth squad, designed to take maximum advantage of markerlights.[/size]

Elite 2: 3x Fireknife Crisis - Plasma Rifle, Missile Pod, Multitracker
Total: 186 points
[size=7pt]Between the mass of fire and the markerlights I hope to make up for the unreliability of the fireknife. [/size]

[hr]

Troop 1: 12x Fire Caste Warrior, Shas'ui
Total: 130 points
[size=7pt] [/size]

Troop 1: 12x Fire Caste Warrior, Shas'ui
Total: 130 points
[size=7pt] [/size]

Troop 3: 20x Kroot
Total: 140 points
[size=7pt] [/size]

Troop 4: 10x Kroot
Total: 70 points

[size=7pt]The point of all these foot troops is to draw anti-infantry fire away from the pathfinders, and provide a secondary threat to annoy the opponent. [/size]


[hr]

Fast Attack 1: 8x Pathfinders, Shas'ui; Devilfish - Multitracker, Targetting Array, Decoys
Total: 206 points
[size=7pt] Core of the list.[/size]

Fast Attack 1: 8x Pathfinders, Shas'ui; Devilfish - Multitracker, Targetting Array, Decoys
Total: 206 points
[size=7pt] Core of the list.[/size]

Fast Attack 3: 8x Gun Drones
Total: 96 points
[size=7pt]Pinning, more annoying infantry. [/size]

[hr]

Heavy Support 1: Railhead - SMS, Multitracker, Decoys, Target Lock, Disruption Pod
Total: 185 points
[size=7pt]Don't leave home without it. [/size]

Heavy Support 2: Ionhead - Burst Cannons, Multitracker, Decoys, Target Lock, Disruption Pod
Total: 140 points
[size=7pt]I opted for burst cannons here to take better advantage of markerlights. [/size]

Other: 6 Seekers
Total: 60 points
[size=7pt]I'm thinking 2 per fish, 1 per heavy tank. [/size]

[size=14pt]Army Total: 1829 points! [/size]

I've got 21 points left. Some of my ideas -
2 more seekers
Shaper for the 20 kroot squad (I take a 20 squad for the staying power, the shaper improves this a lot.)
Fletchettes on the fish or tanks
Target locks on the pathfinders, bonding for the crisis or stealth squad

Any others? Thoughts on the list?

Yeah, actually it would just be a shield drone, because I need to spend 5 points to get Team Leader. Good idea, thanks!
