Ok... After looking over your list a bit (although I still need to look at army builder and figure out just what every piece looks like exactly), I have to concede a bit. With the pieces that you have, you'll probably need to take a high attack + basers (probably shock troopers will be your best bet. Any chance that you could get a couple more of the DF version?) since you don't have good formation builders. Add to that a TTL drop and you should be in business.
You might be able to use the ROTS Shamash to lock down some artillery since you don't have ATVs or Sylphs. It's not a great option, but it'll do in a pinch.
If you have points left over, a HL gauss drop is good (though 3 is better since you get the option of a RC formation)

Those ROTS SHAMESH are good little rammers Someone used some on me the other day. They are a lot more fragile and expensive than atv's but better than nothing

Better than nothing, I suppose... Too expensive for what it does, in my opinion.

It would be good to have a full formation of those (3-5)

Isn't that what I said ;D I Like defense.. The only problem at taking defense over attack is that a single Lucky roll from your opponent can ruin your day!

Ultra Rare Clan Nova Cat Nova Cat 232 -- Improved Targeting 44 --Adam Stark (Clan Nova Cat) 38
Dragon's Fury Shock Troopers x5 14(70) ROTS Shock Troopers x3 18 (54)
Spirit Cats R10 Mechanized ICV 48 --Highlanders Towed Gauss Rifle x2 19 (48) --Stormhammers Towed Thunder Launcher 24
Dragon's Fury JI2A1 Attack APC 40 --Stormhammers Towed Thunder Launcher 24
Total: 598
Ok – Assuming you can get a couple of shock troopers from your friends, I think this build is your best bet. You HAVE to use your shock troopers to run up first and base things. Don’t worry about losing a couple of them. They serve to protect your NC’s advance into range. In addition, with a 10 JJ move the DF shock troopers can push-move and get across the board fairly quickly.
The TTL drops can force non-armored mechs to move and heat up and may cause some enemy arty to take some damage.
The Towed Gauss drop is there as a finisher and a scraper. Keep the R10 near the NC.
Let us know how you do when you use the NC in battle!

Yeah... but I still lack some of the pieces: Re: Stark, IT, 3x DF Shock Troopers, 1x ROTS Shock Troopers. So I'll try to substitute somethin halfway decent... might try DF purifiers instead of DF Shock because its informal

I assumed you had stark since you said you were thinking of putting him in the NC.

Oh.... sorry I was just thinking theoritically. Luckily one of my friends has an Aiko so I'll see if I can borrow it from him that day. I hope he won't be using it I think I can borrow a HL Towed gauss from him as well... so that will complete my 3 TGR drop.
He likes the Chikako I traded him more I think.... <_<
hm.... I can make up the DF shock troopers with DF Purifiers though, although I lack anymore ROTS Shock Troopers. I'll find something, I'm sure. Or I could replace those with more DF Purifiers <_<

I have seen lots of armies with Aiko and decoy. They are decent! The high attacks on units tends to make them less effective now but still they have their uses!
