Other than the eight snipers being deadly accurate, the rest of the Ranged weapon carriers kinda ain't that great, for the most part eliminate the sniper and you're homefree.  (Honestly, I liked facing eight snipers and four battlewalkers.  It forced me to get really creative in my tactics.

Depends, if i know i have to play it and can build a counter force it may be ok but no fun (for me). I guess some ppl are such great strategist they beat anything even with a toothpick (mc guyver eh^^).

just build a flexible force with several viable options for completing the scenario.

For instance, I love Capitol Rangers.  They can Infiltrate ontop of the enemy spawn while the grunts and regularly deployed units move up to retrieve objectives.  Or the Rangers themselves can secure the objective and the grunts can proved the added support (works great in preventing breakthroughs)

When I was facing that Mishima force (I didn't know it at the time) I deployed two full squads of Rangers in medium range of the Mish Deployment zone and two Ranger captians just outside of Short.  The captains activated first, revealed as many of the Mish cards as they could then Gave orders (or just joined the squad) to the nearest Ranger squad who then opened up from protected positions.  I was outside the most effective range of the Archers and was able to bring effective firepower against the walkers too.  My next activation was the other Ranger Captain who repeated the above process.  Using that I was able to nuetralize  and tie up the Mishima forces in their camp while my other troops (grunts and support) moved up to assist.

No special Cheeder vs Gouda counter-dairy force required.

Yeah i gues it works wich such forces. I just dont own enough models to play that way. I usualy field one Squad per Type (like 1 LI 1 HI 1 Sea Lions 1. Assault marines +  a bit of Support). Than i love to play totaly useless troops like Sealions coz i like the models and they brought me to Capitol. I own one normal Sized Squad of every Unit (but i own 2 squads of Lions  ;D) and thats where i draw my forces from ;). It was always played that way here so i'm used to it. Dunno why, but we never used any extreme lists but played a lot of complex scenarios and stuff.

Ruther, from where do you hail?
If sing, sang, and sung, sink, sank, and sunk, and drink, drank, and drunk, how is it that it isn't bring, brang, and brung, think, thank and thunk, and ding, dang, and dung?

Don't even get me started about bad, badder and baddest.  Run, ran AND run...again?  C'mon!

Dude, when you show up, you should pop by Maplewood!

Heck, even bring the little missus.
