Building a 200 point Bakunin sectorial and can't decide between the following two lists:

advance TL;DR: One has a moderator link team with a spitfire and a prowler with CR, ADHL e.t.c. the other runs the link team with a medic and the prowler has the spitfire instead.

Would the spitfire be more useful in the link team or on a sneaky prowler? Also dropping the prowler with ADHL for a spitfire also drops my only template weapon.

Also is the minelayer Zero worth trying to mix up the list to get the extra point for? I understand that lets me pre-drop some mines which sounds cool but not worth flacking the list up for.

Depends on personal preference. On the Prowler, it's good at mucking up your opponent's plans since they usually don't expect it and most non-HI won't survive a Spitfire Camo Attack. On the Moderators it's super cheap and gives the link more bite. Shines in lower point games where SWC is harder to come by. You'll have to spend more orders on the Moderators to move the Spitfire in range since it's not starting mid table but that's the trade off.

Bakunin has trouble against Smoke/ODD/TO Camo, since they don't a MSV2 to deal with them directly so you just kinda work with the tools they got. 4+ man link teams with Sixth Sense L2 and +3 Discover help against TO and can "see" through Smoke, Intuitive attacks with Mines and Flamethrowers is another way or you can avoid TO snipers by using Morlocks with Smoke.

Also is the minelayer Zero worth trying to mix up the list to get the extra point for? I understand that lets me pre-drop some mines which sounds cool but not worth flacking the list up for.

Yes. Minelayer Zeroes tend to punch above their weight class. Don't always need it, but it's never a bad idea. You can easily fit it into the second list by dropping the Marker Moderator. Since Markers don't do anything unless you have a Hacker.

Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it! Time to tweak the army list until I feel sick again
