So I've been wanting to start a JSA army for a while (I asked questions about it a little while ago) and some kind soul just gave me 275 points of them! So here is what I was thinking of for 300. I'm not sure what to change. He also gave me a Ninja with Sniper Rifle and a Domaru with Chain Rifle. I'm thinking I should pick up the engineer and some bots to fix up the O-Yorio, but I don't know who I'd drop for that to fit in. Anyway yeah, thoughts on the list/what would work better?

TAG lists usually have little wiggle room to get 10 orders at 300 points and not be useless. This is as good as it gets, although you might consider getting a heavy weapon for someone else and making the Domaru the LT instead of the Keisotsu.

Righto, I'll have a look at fiddling in a new heavy weapon. Maybe a Raiden with HRL instead of the Karakuri. But they don't have models yet...ah well I can always try and knock together someone with a rocket launcher/just proxy a Keisotsu with one.

The problem with Raiden is that , at least until Yuriko comes out for general play, the enemy always knows what the marker is.

Good point, but who else is there, or am I missing someone obvious? I mean there are the Harakami, but I dislike having unlinked impetuous troops with my heavy weapons.

Well, there's not too many other options, with the JSA being a sectorial. I was just making an observation

Ah. Too easy then, thanks for your help

I generally put a heavy weapon on my keisotsu team (ML being 0.5 SWC helps here). Since you have the full 5 man team available, go for it. B2 AP/exp (at +3BS) in active OR reactive is good.
The ability to negate a combat camo attack is also what they are for.

Echoing the 'use the domaru as Lt' sentiment. Use the CoC kempetai as well (because the Dom Lt WILL DIE when you don't want him to).

Try to get some access to smoke. It will help. Shinobu or saito togan will help deliver the Domaru into cc where he shines.
