320 pt. 16 Hex Lightweight army ideas

I was just trying out an arm idea I had for the Lightweight tournament at GenCon. I was wondering if there were any other thoughts on armies for this event but I didn't find any relevant threads.

If you have any competitive Lightweight army ideas you want to share post them here.

Remember 320 points and only 16 hexes.

I was running these two armies today;

Greater Ice Elemental - 130pts
Krav Maga Agents - 100pts
RotV Raelin - 80pts
Isamu - 10pts
Total 320pts 7 hexes

against

4x 4th Massachusetts Line - 280pts
Total 280pts 16 hexes

I've had some success with the GIE build above as a core and wanted to try it out on its own against some tough challengers. I thought the 4th Mass would be a good test and they have been challenging despite their lower point total. Beatable, though rarely. Clearly Isamu is a better choice than Otonashi for this build but it is still not as competitive as I'd like.

So what's your Lightweight army idea?

HeroScape is back Baby! Whoo Hoo!!!

2xRats 80
2xStingers 120
Torin 120
320/16

Yeah - too much "D" not enough "O", hunh? It'd still be a pain for most armies.

Re: 320 pt. 16 Hex Lightweight army ideas

3 PKs 210
Raelin 290
Marcu 310
Isamu 320
Pk with a raelin backup is so moble and fast and can ignore most every thing on the map short of glads (even then the blasts will have to shoot at at least 7 def, 9 or 10 with rae and hight) to get to what you need to kill.

Re: 320 pt. 16 Hex Lightweight army ideas

Going off the Stinger idea:

Raelin 80
Stingers x4 320
13 spaces

Not so original, but it still is fairly versatile and strong for this point total.

Spartacus+Runa.







EDIT: Check that, I think I'll go with KoWx3 + Alistair.
