Default 1.5K Ninja List

Hey all, first real attempt at a Ninja List. Feel free to tear it apart and put it back together again. ;D

[hr]
[hr]

HQ 1: Shas'O
CIB
FB
Positional Relay
Hard-Wired Multi-Tracker
Hard-Wired Drone Controller
2x Shield Drone
Total:152

Intended, as all Relay'Os are, to get the troops in when they need to get in.



[hr]

Elite 1: XV8 Crisis Team (3)
1x Shas'Ui Team Leader
TL Plasma Rifle
Missile Pod
Hard-Wired Multi-Tracker
1x Shas'Ui Suit
Plasma Rifle
Missile Pod

Deep strike and cause mayhem.


Elite 2:XV25 Stealth Team
3x Shas'Ui
Burst Cannon
1x Shas'vre

Hard-Wired Drone Controller
2x Marker Drones
Total:192

Same as above.

Elite 3: XV8 Crisis Monat
1x Shas'Ui
TL Fusion Blaster
Targeting Array
Total: 53

One of my regular opponents likes to bring Land Raiders and Whirlwinds in large numbers, and this is for making life a little harder for those guys.

[hr]

Troop 1:Fire Warrior Shas'la
6x Shas'la with Pulse Rifles
1x Devilfish
Disruption Pod
SMS Upgrade
Targeting Array
Multi-Tracker

Intended to zoom forward and get middle objectives.


Troop 2:Fire Warrior Shas'la
11x Shas'la with Pulse Rifles
1x Shas'Ui
Bonding Knife
Markerlight
Target Lock
Total:150

Plan to have them come off table-edge reserve and hold home objective.


Troop 3: Kroot Carnivores
12x Kroot Carnivores
Total:84
Would have Hounds in here, but they haven't arrived yet and my game is tomorrow . These guys are to outflank and make a mess of things where the enemy doesn't expect troops.

[hr]

Fast Attack 1: Pathfinders
4x Pathfinder Shas'la
1x Devilfish
Disruption Pod
SMS Upgrade
Targeting Array
Multi-Tracker
Total:168

Help to bring the deep strikers in on target.

[hr]

Heavy Support 1:XV88 Broadside Team
2x Shas'Ui Suit
Advanced Stabilization System
Total:160


Heavy Support 2:Hammerhead Gunship
Railgun
Burst Cannons
Disruption Pod
Multi-Tracker
Total:165

Isn't it obvious?

[size=14pt]Army Total:1505 [/size]

Really looking for any and all advice you guys can give. My biggest concern is that I don't really know if the Monat is going to be worth it. I mean, he could be a hero and kill a big enemy tank before he is obliterated by the enemy rear guard, or just get himself killed before he does anything useful.

Thanks in advance!

To be honest, I wouldn't take the kroot if you don't have any hounds, unless you know the table has plenty of trees of course. I've never found them any use without a tonne of hounds, at which point I really like them.
