Consider adding some specialists to your second list. Even though you'll be focusing on killing the enemy in Annihilation you might want them for Classifieds.

Have fun at the Tourney, Gray Templar. When posting army lists, an easy way to do it is use the Infinity Army builder's export to forum function. It is that little clipboard labeled php on the army list right next to the export as pdf button. It makes the list easier to read. it also has a nice open with Army 5 function, something TO's really like, since you can simply email them your list before the tournament

Ariadna can really spam the units, eh?

Derp, I guess I kinda spaced on the secondary objectives still being in Annhilation.

So changing the second list to as follows

Dropped a Sniper Grunt and turned the Foxtrot and Airborne into FOs and made the rifle grunts and marauder into paramedics.

Wouldn't the sniper grunt go better in group 1 for 2 shots in aro? I mean I imagine those guys are going into a link right? Then a para can go in the 2nd group to even it back out

I've found the snipers often use their Marskmanship level X instead, so the link extra shot doesn't get used. Plus it makes the link team less mobile.

This looks solid.

I might say move on of the paramedic grunts into group 2 so you have the option to form a 3 man team with those if needed, but then you loose your spare man for when the Group1 5man team take a casualty.

Id think about running both groups as 7/1/1 for orders as the Group 1 will be reasonably order efficient having the link team.

My other suggestion would be to split the Airborne rangers so you have the ability to deploy them at the same time and pump 5+ orders into each
