For several reasons I'll be going back to 150pt format for a while. This time with , as my usual is nigh worthless at low points.
Thing is, I seem to have forgotten how to make a small but decent list (or maybe my earlier lists were crap and I didn't notice )
Anyway, time to make some lists. Assuming vanilla Yu Jing for now, I have something like this in mind:
YU JING
──────────────────────────────────────────────────
GROUP 1 8 0 3
CELESTIAL GUARD (Kuang Shi Control Device) Combi Rifle + Light Smoke Grenade Launcher / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 13)
CELESTIAL GUARD Lieutenant Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (13)
SÙ-JIÀN Spitfire, Light Flamethrower, Panzerfaust / Pistol, CCW. (2 | 56)
GŬILÁNG (Minelayer) Combi Rifle, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 26)
KUANG SHI Chain Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (5)
KUANG SHI Chain Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (5)
KUANG SHI Chain Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (5)
TIGER SOLDIER Boarding Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (26)
3 SWC | 149 Points
Open with Army 4
Guilang is a harasser (doubly effective as I'll be playing against and I can scarcely afford MSV2), Su Jian and Tiger are the main attacking force, Kuang Shi are extra order pool and building defence (i.e. get stationed somewhere hidden, don't come out, if someone tries to hit you he gets a chain shot in the face). Nothing special.
The thing is, I feel that the LT will be getting a little underutilized here - hidden LT is good in large formats where his extra order won't do much good anyway. I wanted to replace the CG with a Shang Ji LT, but then the list comes apart in other places. Definitely a short blanket syndrome here what do you peeps think?
An alternative, dropping that Su Jian I sooo want to try out:
YU JING
──────────────────────────────────────────────────

SHÀNG JÍ Lieutenant Combi Rifle + Light Flamethrower / Pistol, Shock CCW. (42)

KUANG SHI Chain Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (5)
KUANG SHI Chain Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (5)
KUANG SHI Chain Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (5)
TIGER SOLDIER Boarding Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (26)

This one still has fast attack, survivable LT, doesn't put 70 points in one basket to be glued by a Tankhunter, but has fewer overall orders. Still, it could berform nicely. Or I could get a normal LT and switch the Shang Ji to a Karakuri. Decisions decisions,
