After a few weeks I chose Ariadna as my faction. This is a 300pt list. What do you all think?

I copy and pasted my list I made from InfinityCreator.

Combat Group 1 » Order Pool: 10 »
Line Kazak » Lieutenant Regular » not impetuous LI SWC: 0.0 » Cost: 9
Line Kazak » AP HMG Regular » not impetuous LI SWC: 1.0 » Cost: 29
Line Kazak » Paramedic Regular » not impetuous LI SWC: 0.0 » Cost: 13
Veteran Kazak » X Visor Regular » not impetuous HI SWC: 0.0 » Cost: 49
Kazak Spetsnaz » HMG (CH: Ambushed Camouflage) Regular » not impetuous LI SWC: 1.5 » Cost: 38
Wulver » T2 Rifle Grenade Regular » frenzy WB SWC: 0.0 » Cost: 37
Scout » AP Sniper AP Mines Regular » not impetuous SK SWC: 1.0 » Cost: 35
Briscard » Heavy RL Regular » not impetuous MI SWC: 1.5 » Cost: 34
Highlander Grey » T2 Rifle Light Shotgun Regular » frenzy HI SWC: 0.0 » Cost: 36
Chasseurs » Minelayer Regular » not impetuous SK SWC: 0.5 » Cost: 20

Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I believe that your LT is quite obvious, which is rarely good
Also Ariadna is probably the faction that is the most adept at using 2 combat group (14-16 guys often seen at 300 pts) without having to actually spam toys, due to their generally low cost

For future reference just hit F10 to copy a verison the looks like this when pasted so we can see it better

5.5 SWC | 300 Points

Open with Army 4

Also if you are new to the game I would HIGHLY advise not trying to jump into the game at 300 pts.

Also welcome to Dakka and Infinity

I 100% agree , do not start at 300 pt.

Same here. Start at around 75 to 100; 3 line Kazaks and LT vet kazak is 75. Learn the mechanics first then move up to more points.

Thanks for the info everyone. That is so true I should start with a lower game first. Also...do you buy the various lieutenants per faction and mix them into your list so it will be harder for your opponent to guess who is you lieutenant? When I bought the Ariadna starter set I was worried my lieutenant would be a dead giveaway.

Well, you usually don't go out of your way to buy a model because of it's ability to be an Lt, or well I don't. When I build my list, I look at the models I have available, how I want my list to work, and choose an Lt accordingly.

You can also only bring one. This is where the choice becomes interesting. If you go with a tough as nails (well, for Infinity) front line fighter, you can use his Lt order for more offensive actions. If you go with a support unit, like a hacker with markers or a model with Strategoes, you sit him back and support your force. Then there's the completely normal fallback of 'take a basic line grunt Lt with 2 others and make your opponent guess' method.

It's worth noting that N3 is out soon, and from what we've heard Retreat is harder to fall into, and Loss of Lt is a lot less debilitating, encouraging offensive Lts. My advice above will probably become completely wrong in N3.

No matter what please let us know how it goes for you!
