An overview for faction units and tactics in N4. WIP

Why Play FACTION?

You went to the LGS or the Infinity website and your weeb-senses instantly locked on the JSA action pack. This faction is packed with sci-fi samurais and ninjas. JSA is not great at shooting over long ranges, and have limited access to smoke and MSVs- but they make up for it with a boatload of Martial Arts and stealth. They win the game by slicing your opponents forces into pieces

Faction Features

  • Stabbing, shanking, slicing: JSA has got ALL you could want if it comes to CC. They don't really need to rely on this, but everyone else should fear their close combat fighters.
  • Strong midfield choices: Ninjas, Oniwabans, Ryuken are all really good and scary midfield units which are there to protect a certain area or push a button. Having a good start in the midfield makes moving up your paintrain way easier.
  • Minelayers: JSA can drop a lot of mines, repeaters and CrazyKoalas, which makes protecting their DZ way easier.
  • Stealth: Almost all the dedicated fighters in JSA have stealth- even their TAG has it! Be wary of your opponents sixth sense units and sneak your way into success.

Units Overview

Light Infantry

  • Keisetsu: The plain, listfilling LI. They aren't really good at anything but generating orders, but they're cheap, can form a core link and have a few specialist an SW profiles if you're in desperate need of something specific on a budget. They can bring one Domaru into their link.
    • Yuriko Oda: Yuriko does a lot, and does it really well. She's a wildcard engineer with MIM and a good chance of dodging, making her ideal to tag along a paintrain. Both her FTO profiles bring nice weapon options, but if you want to have her solo she even gets forward deployment 8"!
  • Aragato Senkenbutai: The Aragato are motorcycle units with both a HD and a KHD choice, making them efficient at zooming to where they need to be and do their hacker/specialist thing. If you don't need a specialist they also can bring a boarding shotgun or spitfire, otherwise they'll pack the combi rifle.
  • Kuroshi Rider: Gets dogged, FO and MA1, and a general boost on their stats for a few more points. She's also one of the rare sources of smoke in this faction, and has a LT option.
  • Kempetai: Kempetai are a wildcard option, bringing sixth sense and number two into a link. They have two CoC profiles, making your offensive LT options way more appealing. Also worth mentioning is the shock marksman rifle with MSV2.
  • Ryuken Unit-9:MIM (-6), minelayer and a X-Visor are the standout features. Brings two versions with a very different purpose. The more prominent one comes with camo and a HRL, this one's a very scary ARO piece. The second version comes with a SMG and forward deployment +8". It also carries around D-charges and there's a hacker option, which is really attractive for any sort of efficient button pushing and turning into a roadblock afterwards.
  • Tokusetsu Butai: These are the faction-generic doctor and engineer. One-purpose profiles, but cheap and reliable.
  • Warcors: 3pts for an irregular Flashpulse ARO. Fit him into your list whenever you got the slot and points, they're well worth it.

Heavy Infantry

  • Dayokai Dengekitai:
  • Domaru Butai:
    • Takeshi 'Neko' Oyama:
  • Karakuri Special Project:
  • Shikami:
  • Tanko Zensenbutai:

Tactical Armor Gear

  • O-Yoroi:

Remotes

  • Yaokong: As per usual with S3 remotes they come in a bunch of variations.
    • Chaiyi: Is the trusty flashbot.
    • Husong: The TR-HMG bot.
    • Son-Bae: The guided-missile bot.
    • Weibing: The FO gunfighter bot.
  • Yaopu Pangguling: The S4 baggage bots, come in the usual three varieties with EVO HD, TR bot with a combi rifle, or just a plain baggage bot.
  • Yaoxie Lu Duan: Holomask and Holoprojector make this S4 remote particularly fun in JSA since it can be disguised as a Bike! It also got minelayer with deployable repeaters, which is pretty sweet. The MK12 and heavy flamethrower (+1B) are solid weapons, and it's got MSV1 to shoot better against those pesky MIM units.
  • Yaoxie Rui Shi: Brings MSV2 and a spitfire, making it the S4 gunbot.

Warband

  • Ninjas:
  • Oniwaban:
    • Shinobu Kitsune:
  • Saito Togan:

Skirmishers

  • Miyamoto Mushashi: No smoke for this WB, but if your opponent can't keep him from getting into CC they've got a real problem. AP+EXP CC al MA L5, on a CC25 profile is NUTS. Irregular on his solo profile but can be taken as a FTO for a Tanko haris.
  • Yojimbo: He is so good. A motorcycling warband with smoke grenade launcher, and he's the cheapest source of smoke in the faction. Minelayer with CrazyKoalas makes your deployment zone a tad more safe. He's immune to Crits and has NWI, but since he's impetuous you still need to be careful. Lastly he is a very competent CC fighter, but honestly almost everything in JSA is.
