GROUP 1 9 1 1

KEISOTSU Missile Launcher / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 25)
KEISOTSU Missile Launcher / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 25)
YURIKO ODA Combi Rifle, Panzerfaust, D-Charges, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, CCW. (24)
KEISOTSU Paramedic (MediKit) Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (12)
KEISOTSU (Forward Observer) Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (12)
YÁOZĂO Electric Pulse. (3)

Missile toting Bunker Link for board control. Would prefer a third missile Keisotsu but couldn't spare the points as I needed the Engineer.

Yaókòng WÈIBĪNG Combi Rifle / Electric Pulse. (21)
TOKUSETSU EISEI Doctor Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (14)
NINJA Hacker (Hacking Device) Combi Rifle / Pistol, Shock CCW. (0.5 | 48)
YÁOZĂO Electric Pulse. (3)

Non-linked scoring. Fast specialist, stupidly expensive infiltrator specialist, and the Doctor for the link team.

YOJIMBO Contender, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades, Light Smoke Grenade Launcher, CrazyKoalas (2) / Pistol, DA CCW. (28)
O-YOROI Lieutenant HMG + Heavy Flamethrower, CrazyKoalas (2) / EXP CCW. (3 | 85)
O-YOROI PILOT Pistol, CCW.

Attackers. O-Yoroi looks amazing, gets past the problem of crappy Lt that we have, and seems decent enough on the table. Yojimbo is awesome, and if you cannot tell, I like crazykoalas.

What do you guys reckon? Keep in mind this list is not designed for any particular mission.

I want to experiment with board control links that have been popping up at my club, and which my CA and Tohaa are not very good for. This list combines that with a very cool TAG, versatile specialists (I think I can do every Classified too), and crazykoalas help stomp me getting alpha'd if I go second.

Also, anyone had experience running double group JSA? After doing two groups (or 1.5 groups) w/ my Tohaa its really hard to go back to ten models.

board control link team
I do like multiple ML, though not in one linked team.
And what are your thoughts behind the paramedic and the forward observer?

I'd go with a linked team like:
Keisotsu ML
Keisotsu combi
Keisotsu combi
Keisotsu combi
Yuriko

this frees up 25 / .5 swc.

weibing
tokusetsu doctor + yaozao
aragato hacker

this frees up 11

yojimbo
0-yoroi

Which leaves you with 36 / .5 to play around with.

you could swap a keisotsu out for an oniwaban
or change the weibing into a ninja sniper
or maybe even get that bot that supports your hacker

With these changes you got a really fast army with board pressence i think.
If you get a ninja or oniwaban you will get some early board coverage aswell.
Just my 5 cnts!

Goodluck

I'll have to keep this in mind.... I have some credit at the local store and I was thinking of picking up the O-Yoroi and definitely pre-ordering Yojimbo. I don't have any of the bots, though.... how would a
Raiden HRL fit on a team like this?

[CoveredInFish]

I think Yojimbo without aragotos is hard to use, but has its use.

You definitly want orders, so full Keisotsu link team is a given.

I think a Raiden is a great unit - and if you have the points a good addition. It's a lot weaker after it's firsts surprise attack but for JSA still not bad.

But there might be other good models for those points. Usually I play JSA (if not its focused) without hacker and doctor, but an engineer might be clever.
If tag lt. A kempeitai with coc is a must have.

FTFY

Yuriko is an engineer, so if I took the Toku it would be as a doctor, personally.

And I usually take the Kempei for CoC as well.

Im trying to figure out my first infinity list and came with a very similar one:
