Infinity/N4 Tactics/Shasvastii Expeditionary Force

An overview for faction units and tactics in N4. WIP

Why Play Shasvastii?

The Shasvastii Expeditionary Force specialize in keeping your opponent on edge, impeded, misdirected and controlled. They are easily capable of fielding all or mostly camo lists, and have amazing midfield control with multiple Forward Deploy and Infiltration units, Minelayers, the extremely efficient Taighas, and arguably the deadliest Impersonator in the game, the Speculo Killer. With all the Marker states and Hidden Deploy options, Shasvastii are able to play mind games with the opponent and force uneven trades through asymmetric warfare. They are also one of the best factions for actually scoring on objectives. Their special Shasvastii rule is amazing for Zone of Operation missions, and all of these Infiltrators and Forward Deployers save you orders on actually walking up to the buttons you need to press.

That being said, Shasvastii can be unforgiving to pick up. Most of their troops rely on not being hit as their defense, with some combination of Stealth, Mimetism, and marker states. There is also a notable lack of high burst AP ranged options, so you may have trouble cracking into your opponent's HI or TAGs without getting danger close with melee troopers.

Definitely consider playing Shasvastii if you enjoy the feeling of handing your opponent a blank sheet of paper for a courtesy list, watching them squirm knowing that a Noctifer could be watching any corner, burning their precious orders discovering mines and double tapping unconscious troops, or if you just can't get enough of those sneaky lizardmen.
