Basically an armored thrust supported by a mini gunline. The CHQ Chimera is there to provide cover for the CHQ if necessary, and to be a battle-taxi for an Infantry Squad to take an objective if the chance arises (love the new not-so-dedicated transport rules). The Vets and Sentinels take advantage of Infiltrate/Scouts and perform outflank moves to disrupt the enemy rear and dispute objectives. Before someone asks, I read the rules carefully and a unit with infiltrate and a dedicated transport can perform Outflank, but they must come onto the board embarked on said transport.

General idea is in C&C missions to secure my deployment zone objective and contest my opponent's objective, and in Seize Ground contest as many objectives as possible and use Chimeras to move Infantry Squads for claiming objectives. Annihilation is pretty obvious.

Again, it's not meant to be a tourney list. Love to hear thoughts on the approach.
