Starting with the Morat Aggression Force
List #3: Chunky Monkey Punch

You want Monkey Punch? Here you have monkey punch. This list is about taking down your opponents, not about tricks, deep tactics. This is about throwing as much heavy weaponry as you can find.
Bringing this amount of punch is expensive, so the list is short on orders. But, playing at 200 points, 8 orders is a good minimum. And you get 2 Impetuous as well. 😉 Not bad, considering you bring this amount of firepower in such a low-tier game.
Kurgat are great in the Morat Sectorial. They combine Morat firepower with Specialist abilities, since they’re all Engineers. They have a Vanguard-like Statline, but come equipped with an arsenal of weaponry on their persons; mines, D-charges, and heavy guns. The Autocannon is a can-opener for TAGs and Heavy Infanty; Armour Piercing and Explosive Ammunition. Every target has to make 3 rolls per hit, on a halved ARM value. Hello TAG, goodbye TAG!
The MK12 Kurgat is another terrifying high damage unit.
The Yaogats are another Morat turret. Link them up for extra bonusses and they become a scary team of weaponry. Yaogats come with Multi-Spectral Visors, which allows them to see through smoke, camouflage modifiers and ODD. This unit is a great anti-camouflage counter. They come equipped with Panzerfausts, Spitfires and Combi Rifles. Just blast the living crap out of your opponent.
Last in the list, Daturazi Warriors, the Morat Warband. Extreme Impetuous, and focussed on Close Combat. The Daturazi come with Martial Arts Lv4 and Kinematica, which allows them to Engage targets in a range of 3 inch instead of 2.
They come with Mimetism to make them better at surviving shots, and all carry smoke grenades, which allows you for some synergy with the Yaogats. Drop the smoke grenades in their Lines of Fire, and the Yaogats are safe from AROs while moving, and they are able to shoot through the smoke.
Since the Oznat can run a Fireteam of Hungries, even in vanilla, can you run them as well as a link of say…… Yaogats?
You mean Proxying? Yes, you can.
But the Oznat/Hungies combination only works with those units. Yaogats can only link with Yaogats.
Sorry, I phrased that question incorrectly. What I’m trying to figure out is this:
The Oznats Control Device allows her to form a link team of Hungries. Does this count toward the one team limit? If so, is she useless in vanilla since you can’t use fire teams/links vanilla? Seems like they wouldn’t restrict a models use like this.
But the Hungries Control device rules do state that they follow all the rules for Link teams, so I’m not sure
I guess I kind of answered my own question. Seems silly to take her just for smoke in vanilla since you’re paying for the device
It’s not uncommon in Infinity to have a unit being a sub-par choice in vanilla, while it shines in its sectorial (often together with the link-team rules). For example; Corregidor’s Wildcats, NeoTerra’s Bolts, Tunguska’s Grenzers. All are outclassed by other profiles in vanilla, but have a solid place in their own sectorial.
CA has some more striking examples, because it really is a ‘combined’ army. The two current sectorial differ so much, it’s hard to imagine them even being the same faction.
Its clearly based off the already existing Celestial Guard w/ Kuang Shi Control Device.
However they couldn’t or didn’t retcon the Hungries to require a Oznat to be enlisted before you could add Hungries to your lists.
I’ve used her in vanilla a bunch myself. At 20 pts. She is only 4 pts. More than a base vanguard and is a BEAST in close combat for that cost… the S-LGL is amazing at guarding her own advance and for your msv carrying brethren (including the always fun charontid and yaogat) and also helps when your witch soldiers botch their grenades or need to move faster(not using first order to ‘nade and just going mov-mov under cover of the lgl)
Wait what?
No you cannot form a link team using an Oznat and Hungries in a Vanilla force. That is 100% against the rules of Fireteams and has not being retconned or FAQ’ed changed in anyway allowing you too. Excluding Tohaa who do have the special caverat Fireteam: Tohaa allowing for Fireteam: Tohaa in there Vanilla force and multiple Fireteam: Tohaa at
You CAN enlist as many linkable troops as you want but you cannot have more than ONE x Fire Team: Link Team operating at the same time as laid out in the Human Sphere rules.
The Combined Armies Sectorial Forces so the MAF (Morat Aggression Force) or the SEF (Shasvastii Expeditionary Force DO NOT have access to Fireteam: Tohaa, Enomotarchos or Haris these allow for the extra Fireteams of various types but it’s specifically tells you in there rule sets.
So I’m sorry based on what you have written thus far isn’t an option.
What VisOne said is true; no linking in vanilla… I missed that part of your comment.
Only one linkteam per army if they lack Haris, Enomotarchos or FT:Tohaa rules.
The Sogarat is 4-4 so he is pretty much average move speed for N3
Oh, did I mix them up with the Azra’il’s statline as they share Silhouettes? My bad. 😉 I tend to play Haqq more than CA armies.
Doesn’t the Oznat also make the Hungries in link regular (otherwise they would be hella bad in link, as don’t irregular orders being spent break link?)
I would love that, but I couldn’t find any rule supporting that.. :/
you may want to re-read the rules for the Hungries Control Device then, because it explicitly states that
“Thanks to the Control Device, when the Fireteam is formed,
the Gakis and the Pretas become Regular. Moreover, following
the Fireteam rules, all the members of the Fireteam become
Not Impetuous.”
Ah, thanks! I’ve read the Wiki about it, and couldn’t find that part. Will edit soon. 😉
