So after promising to bring mono-harlequins to a big tournament in February I decided I should make some good plans for list building. As it stands now I've designed a very MSU style list, relying on the concept of "you may kill something in one round, but you won't kill everything". I know I have absolutely no ability to take down flyers (I'll deal) but I think I can deal with even super heavies like knights (can actualy very easily take out 6 hull in like two turns just through shooting) and GMCs I will rely on trying to charge, and since I have SOOOOOOO many units that can charge I can let one die to overwatch then hit in with another for things like riptide wing (plus I have a shriek at -2 Leadership waitng for that...)

So for shooting I've got

48 S6 AP5 Bladestorm Shots From Vehicles
3 S6 AP 5 Bladestorm OR 1 Poisoned 2+ AP5 Bio Explosive shot from jester
37 Shuriken Pistols
6 Haywire Small Blasts
1 Hallucinogenic shot (pinning test, wound if failed)

Which is actually a lot from Harlies

And in close combat on the charge I have
85 S4 AP- attacks which auto wound at AP 2 on a to hit of a 6
13 S6 AP2 Attacks with instant death on a 6 to wound
60 S4 AP- Attacks
16 S5 AP2 Attacks
5 S6 AP2 Concussive, Fleshbane attacks

So can shoot decently and you should never let it charge you. I gave up on the trying for veil, its good but it's a really expensive gamble. What do people think?
