Muyib Minelayer may also be turned into a Muyib Medic with Doc Plus, Rifle + SG, DEP for 1 Pt. More

Looks pretty good, I've been playing with a larger number force myself recently and it works pretty well.

The only points I would make
- The Ghulam Lt. with HMG is a bit of a dangerous choice. They're not particularly survivable, and the HMG will make him a target which will then put you into LoL if he gets taken out.
- You might be lacking a little mid-table, infiltrating distraction. Either something like a Fiday (which really I nearly always use, just because they are such fun and cause your opponent much annoyance) or a Ragik. They don't need to win the game, but can distract your opponent. Might also give your Muttiwah more of a chance to reach the enemy, too.
- Small thing, there is only one Lasiq with sniper rifle sculpt at present. Unless you want to double up (or are planning a conversion) as a personal preference I would sub something else in. Perhaps another unit with HMG, or even add another Muyib or two and make a link team - those guys are really durable. I personally wouldn't bother with a Muyib doctor as you might well want to use their dogged skill, in which case they will die anyway without giving the doctor a chance to save them. Minelayer on the other hand is a great skill so have and make them a very effective defensive unit.
- Add a little Nasmat helper for your doctor (3pts)

Otherwise looks OK - have you thought about who you might want to use as a link team though? Its the big advantage of going for the sectoral army over the basic Haqqislam list.

Thanks for the response, mate.

- I was thinking that same thing with the Lt. I'll most likely switch him to the Rif+LS variant, which will keep him better hidden in there anyway.
- I have the one Ragik, + Al Djabel, which I figured would at least lend a decent amount of distraction. To tie in to the next few comments, my plan was to run the Lasiqs (and the Ghulam) as a fire time. Do you guys think it better that I take out on of the Lasiqs (Either a sniper or a rifle) and replace it, instead, with another Fiday? It'd be some serious destructive force there if I go that route, which would disrupt the heck out of their first turn. However, the Lasiqs, so far, have locked the board up pretty well, and drawn equal amounts of fire.
- Fair enough on the Muyib Dr. Dr.'s are just so damn good in Haq!!! :-D
- Will do with the Nas!

You want Al-Djabel in the 1st group as he's going to be your 1st turn Alpha striker and will consume a lot of orders and the 2nd group is poor in Regular orders
Then the Ragik is the 2nd turn havoc-wreaking piece
You could have a 2nd group that only consists of the Ghazi and the Lasiq team as it's a mostly defensive link team and they won't be using a lot of orders

I'm right glad you said that, mate. I hadn't realized the Ghazi were irregs until then, thank you.

Here's a rewrite of the list from both of your responses. I don't know if I'll keep the Muyib HRL or replace it with a more versatile weapon for the link team. I've mostly used the Muyib HRL as a defensive / overwatching presence so far, so I may replace HRL with a Spitfire:
