>>43841811
I do like the ranger sculpt, and the Rodoks are bloody beautiful. The Domaru are nice as well, though I'm easily impressed. the twiggy female sculpts are a minor gripe for me.

>>43841798
as a tohaa player, that's absurd and should never happen

>>43841979

Well obviously.

>>43841798

>>43841798
>Only two triads

It'd obviously be a super link team made up of three triads.

>>43841853
I still think the Domaru are lacking. The Helmets look too alien-esque, and the leg pads are blergh.

>>43842284
I think they were trying to go for the whole samurai scary mask helmet look. I'm thinking maybe a flat mask-like face would have been better. The top of the helmet is fine, though.

how about an exiled Knights templar unit for Nomads?

Ex impetuous, mimetism/ODD, decent hacking options, EM weapons. Knightly stats.

AVA 1 vanilla, AVA 4 or 5 in Bakunin or Tunguska

>>43842343
Doable, I mean McMurrough got his sword off of one.

I wouldn't mind seeing a Foreign Legion type dealie for the French. Have them as a merc unit for the other ariadnans and whatnot

>>43842343

make it a merc unit

>>43841668
There actually is a pretty decent Solid Snake model out there.

>>43842436
Yeah, we talked about the ghulam. A bit of tweaking and it'll be golden.

If someone attempts to hack me and I respond by shooting at him, is it resolved as a face to face roll or two normal rolls?

Played my first proper game last night against my friend with this list.

He was playing PanO and ran an Orc, Father Knight, Knight of the Sepulchre and 2 nisses with Multi-SR's. It was a good close game (mainly due to us both being new) which rapidly demonstrated quality vs quantity.
Highlights were Lupe surviving a DEP and launching a Panzerfaust back in his face, and critting with 2 LGL's in a row and blowing his Lieutenant into chunky salsa with alguaciles.

Having made the jump from 40k, I gotta say we haven't had anything nearly this fun in 40k.

Skirmishes make the individual deaths matter more we feel.

Hi, beginner player here.

I would like some advice regarding Combat Groups.

I'm begining to undertsand not only the game but the whole meta behind ITS and the missions.
As far as I know... the best formula is to have a Specialists group with enough orders to allow the specialists to reach and win objective points ...
and a secondary support group with firepower and smoke grenades, specially V-0 Smoke grenades.

So that is why I think that the Guard Assault from PanO is the BEAST.
So... now... based on this info... what would be an effective ITS army list with the Assault Guard?

By my understanding, in older editions they had movement 4-4, which for HI was actually something special. They had lower armour though (for HI) N3 however cranked almost every HI to 4-4 so they kinda suck.
They seem decent for their points. I'd probably field them if I played PanO.

BUT if you get a Guarda de Assalto you basically get two killer figures for the price of one, activated with the same order.
So it seems like his role is to be a mid-field killer, dangerous to links and MI alike.

>>43845935
It's simple, we kill the Guarda De Assalto.
They've got good short-med firepower, but watch out for mines, koalas, snipers, linkteams of guys that don't fucking die, glue and other such things.
They'll stomp face in direct firefights, but boy will I make you work for that.

Aside from that, yes, they are probably even going to introduce fireteams to vanilla in limited capacity via the Fireteam:Duo rule which will let 2 models move together but not give them any bonuses.

Hey folks, I really like the rules for jaguars but I absolutely *hate* their models.
I was hoping for some splinter cell looking motherfuckers, and I remembered these guys from way-back-when. unfortunately the models have hit collector status or something and are currently $150+ for a box.

tl;dr where can I get some cool splinter cell helmets/goggles for my dudes.

File: testjaps.pdf (1B, 486x500px)

I am thinking of getting into YuJing (currently Ariadna player) and love tags. The Sectoral lets you take two, and with the new Domaru being sexy, I was thinking of running something akin to pic related.

TLDRl; rate list and give advice to yujing scrub pls

>>43849719
>rate list
Your list is shit.
>give advice to yujing scrub pls
Be less shit at the game in general, then try being less shit at Yu Jing. Don't take 2 TAGs and a HI link.

>>43849719
8 orders is not enough, and two squishy specialists are not enough

you can do double tags, and you can do HI links, but you cant do both in once list.

a domaru lt isnt a terrible option in a double tag list, because hes the only one in JSA that doesnt cost extra swc and isnt an impetuous biker

>>43849719
Don't ever take 2 TAGs unless you're experienced and want to make a gimmick list.

Get another Domaru for your link team. 5 is the optimal number.

Get a hacker and a few more squishy LI to fill out the ranks and generate orders.

Stop being such Japanese filth.

>>43849964
Only 2 tag lists are:
- Gekkos
- Tikbalang and Whatsherface
That I can think of.

>>43849681
I think you are confusing Jaguars with Bandits. Nothing released about Jaguars ever suggested they were anymore than gangers given a some tactical gear. Bandits are the sneaky masked vigilantes, of which there are no models though Sr Massacre is a popular proxy.

>>43849719
A Double O-Yoroi list is usually backed up by a Keisotsu link, filled with specialists and a few SWC. You can fit in some domaru or bikes in there.

You can try fitting an HI link with an O-yoroi, but it's easier to do with Haramaki who are cheaper and can project ranged firepower better.

I'm not all too sold on Domaru in link. The spitfire gives it new legs, but they do their original job of area denial pretty well outside of it.

>>43850464
Well, either way I'll be needing some spooky heads.
Bandit will be the next on my list to convert.
The reasoning for my Jaguars is that I want to yknow, make them look like guys that want to use smoke as opposed to cartel members.
I know that's their fluff, but I'm not going by the fluff. I'm trying to make an operator list for Nomads.
DOORKICKERS

>>43850522
Then don't use Jaguars, you powergaming fool. They're thugs, plain and simple, not operators operating operationally.

>>43850522

then use alguaciles or wildcats, both are professional operators.

>>43845097
this is the right time and place.

Noob question;

kazaks from ariadna are from kazakhstan right?

>>43850926
Probably a few of them, but I'm pretty sure the name is derived from the Russian term for cossacks.

>>43850998
Hmmmm ok... was thinking of giving them some kinda flag to identify them from murican grunts....

>>43850684
>>43850677
But shotguns and smoke. SHOTGUNS AND SMOKE. Also dogged.
I already have alguaciles and wildcats, but I'm trying to cram jags in there too. So I can't really use alguaciles as proxies. Hence the problem ;(

>>43851041

Get rid of some of the piercings and change the tatoos a bit and you'd have a real CoD tier operator figure.

>>43849843
How about you give some real fucking advice you /v/ tier douchenozzle

>>43851041

If you don't paint tattoos on them, they're essentially just Alguaciles without sleeves. Only one guy has bumps all over his face.byou can just paint them metallic and say they're piercings or just cut them off.

Or you can just accept corregidor is made up of ex/criminals

>>43852464
He's kind of right, though. The fact that you think the list could be viable means that you don't play the game enough. Even if we give you an interplanetario-quality list you would do poorly because you have no notion of how the game works. That's fine, we were all new once, but stop being a faggot when you get mocked on 4chan

>>43853025

How should i build up my Nomads army from the Operation Icestorm set?

>>43853277

Iguana and interventors are the CB recommended route

>>43853277
A Custodier and a HMG Intruder would get you up to 250 easily. Both of them are very universal figures as well. A support box is going to see a lot of use, as well. Zeros or Moran are dead handy as well.

>>43853277
It depends what you want to do. If your going vanilla I'd recommend an intruder, a zero, the basic remotes and either morlocks or jaguars. That will give you an msv2 unit, another skirmisher, some variety with the drones if you magnetize or proxy their weapons and access to smoke.

>>43853277
Like people are saying, decide if you're going vanilla or sectorial. For vanilla, an HMG intruder is gold. After that it just depends on what you like. An interventor is the best hacker ever, and tags are pretty cool. I'm a fan of the lizard and geckos.

How many Tiger Soldiers is too many Tiger Soldiers? I've got four by now. I just really like the models.

>>43854884

3. 3 or more and you're not gaining enough pain for the points and order embuggerance. Better to take 1 or 2 and pick up a TO type.

I read somewhere that there aren't many terrible models to field in Infinity. If I was going to pick up the Combined Army starter, can I really just add what I think looks cool, or are there a few specifics I should focus on picking up first?

>>43855342

Well, list design is still a thing. Combine's a very flexible faction, from the basics up. There are some commonly seen figures, though. The Obsidon Mechanoids are your basic doctor/engineers, and they're pretty damn good at it, so you tend to see them around a lot.

Beyond that, try to have at least 2 good long range shooters, a few tricks or surprises, a decent order count (8-10 per group), some specialists, and and a few units that are good at getting places efficiently, and you should have a pretty decent list.

>>43855342

The primary thing you'll have to think about is something that adds up to whatever army size you want and with the new CA starter, having a hacker to take those REMs.

Other then that, pretty much anything that's not a Morat or Shasvaasti is top tier. That's not to imply Morats or Shasvaasti are bad, just that they aren't literally all good like vanilla CA.

Seriously Onyx force is going to be one of the strongest sectorials in the game

How are the ruskies in Infinity and are there other artillery units in the game ?

>>43854884
I wish they'd release more sculpts (Hacker/Combi), and an AD link team. That'd be nice.

>>43856757

There's no dedicated Russain/Cossack list at the moment, but there's heaps of them in Ariadna. They've got a good mix of abilities. None of them are bad, and most are great.
>other
Other than the Traktor Mul and other faction's guided missile launchers, not really. Some TAGs have heavy grenade launchers, but it's not really an artillery sort of game.

>>43855342
There are a couple units that almost always get used because they are so fantastically efficient. The support box with the med tech, a box of drone remotes, and the Ikadron Batdroid & Imetron pack. These guys are bread and butter you don't need them all but they fill in gaps like nothing else.

>>43857362
The newdrone box, or the old ones?

>>43858173
They can both be used for drones although I heard the old ones are harder to assemble it, comes down to which ones you like the look of more since you could probably still get either box.

>>43852939
Yeah, I'll probably have to do that. I don't mind excons, Thanks anons

>>43858390
To clarify the old box has parts to make 4 different kinds of drones, however they're are only enough parts to make 2. The new box has one extra type of drone called the e drone but most people proxy drones as other kinds of drones since they always have a very distinct style from the rest of the faction. So someone will always need clarification of what kind of drone you're running. If you're a real stickler for WYSIWYG then you should be able to magnetize your drone's weapons.

have been subtle price hikes the past year dude

At the FLGS Infinity seems to be picking up lately and I decided that I want in on this, since I liked what I saw. Got the rulebook and am puzzling out the rules right now. So far everything seems fairly straightforward, but I am not that far in yet.
I'm sure you often hear this, but I figure I might as well as you guys for some advice for army selection, since the guys at the store are less than reliable when it comes to such.
Basically, when it comes to other games I prefer those (admittedly sorta boring) middle-of-the-road armies, since neither cheap horde spam nor hyper-elite hero units really work for me. Also, I tend to play pretty aggressively as I hate being forced into defensive and/or reactive play.

Fluff-wise Haqqislam seem pretty cool, but I am not really sold on their visual design. While I kinda feel that many of the armies lack a internally consistent design philosophy (which I am sure is down to my unfamiliarity with them), for Haqqislam it's kinda egregious.
On the other hand, PanOceania has fairly meh fluff as far as I can tell, but their various knights and units like the Neoterran Bolts are gorgeous.
Yu-Jing and Aliens have all left me cold until now.

>>43860079

Can someone give me a quick clarification on smoke dodge? If I shoot at a dude and he elects to drop a smoke grenade at his feet as an ARO, if he succeeds the PH roll for the toss, do my shots factor in at all as a normal face to face roll? Or does the smoke just shut down everything?

>>43859765
magisters and teutons are less similar than they appear

the magister is panos warband, a guy you run up one flank to cause problems. he cant benefit from cover, but he dodges on 17s to make up for it. his shooting has some significant holes, but a bs 12 panzerfaust is a significant threat. he is much tougher and shootier than your typical warband, and is still regular to boot

the teutonic knight is a perfectly servicable gunfighter with a combirifle and 14 bs that also has a panzerfaust for a deadly aro option. frenzy is a downside, but it doesnt matter until he hits someone. berserk gives him the option of cutting through virtually anything in cc, and also gives him assault for getting engaged faster if you want to

neither is a poor choice in vanilla, they just do very different things

>>43860243
The PH roll for the smoke *is* his FtF roll, effectively. If it's not someone being targeted by the initial attack it's resolved after the shooting.

>>43859771
Hey, i live in the southeast here
There is only Warhams store and ordering from US and GB store are not different or maybe pricier than orders directly

>>43853552
What are the pro's and con's of vanilla and sectorial?

>>43860303
Couldn't you use miniature market, then?

>>43860243
It works identically to a normal dodge, but instead of moving if the roll was successful the model drops a smoke grenade at their feet.

If he fails, or his dodge dice was cancelled then the grenade isn't dropped.

>>43860414
I think what he was really getting at is that if the grenade goes off, does that cancel his shots, or do they go through with smoke penalties?

>>43860389
Sectorials get linked teams and higher AVA on their sectorial units. The downside is they have a more limited pool of units to chose from, losing out on the flexibility of being able to field any unit from the army.

>>43860389
Vanilla have more options and flexible list, but dont have advantage of link team and limited AVAs in some units

Sectorial have those advantages, even get some extra skill for some troops ,but have more limited options and flexibility

>>43860414
So the benefit is that you're covered by a smokescreen next order if you pass? Or is it for a +3 to PH for dropping a smoke grenade so close?
Sorry if this question is dumb, my group just started using smoke-equipped troops.

>>43860389
vanilla has everything but no link teams

Sectoral has less of a selection, eg military orders cannot take cutters,aquila guard, crocmen, but have link teams and a greater Ava of certain units such as the knights and the order sergeants

>>43860502
>So the benefit is that you're covered by a smokescreen next order if you pass?
Yes. It persists until the end of the current active turn as normal.

>Or is it for a +3 to PH for dropping a smoke grenade so close?
As far as I'm aware you don't get a +3 to PH and standard dodge modifiers apply. If that's not the case then everyone I know has been playing it wrong.

It gets quite hilarious when the reactive player smoke dodges early in the turn as a response to one threat, allowing you to use an MSV unit to pick them off one by one later.

>>43860472
>>43860502
It's a face to face roll, if the smoke grenade wins it all shots are cancelled and the smoke is set, if the shooter wins then no smoke is placed and the shots go through

>>43860650
You do get a +3 if you throw the smoke within 8"

>>43860409
They cannot ship to Indonesia sadly, so not an option

>>43860709
>It's a face to face roll
Okay. So if someone fires 3 burst at a guy (lets say a Rasyat in this case) and he drops a Zero-V smoke grenade at his feet, beating two of the three rolls, no smoke is dropped, but only that one shot goes through?

>>43860770
No, because the one shot going through negates the grenade drop attempt.

While we're answering rules questions, could somebody help me with an resurfacing argument that keeps popping up in my group?
A few times we've run into issues where someone will try and shoot at a model who, by line of sight, is covered 50% or more by a wall, bench, console or other intervening object, but is not in base to base contact with them, and from a birds-eye view, is out in the open. The guy who owns the model getting shot at argues that since 50% of the model is blocked, he should get cover, but the guy shooting says that he's not in cover because he has to be touching a wall or something with his base.

I've included an illustration to help phrase my question.

>>43860762
Oh, Southeast ASIA. I'm sorry anon, that seems to be a poor area for CB.

>>43861681
It doesn't matter how much of a model is covered by intervening terrain. If the model is in LoF and isn't touching the blocking terrain they don't have cover.

>>43861681
Has to be in base contact with the cover

>>43861261
Doesn't the higher smoke roll cancel the lower two shots, and the high shot in turn cancels the smoke?

>>43861933
Cancelled shots don't get uncancelled by other rolls beating their canceller. One shot would get through in the stated case.

>>43861933
yeah, so only the highest roll goes through. the smoke not going down doesn't stop it from stopping the lower rolls

>>43861681
You guys should go reread the cover rules it is stated very clearly that you must be in base to base contact with the piece of scenery and it must cover 1/3 of the model from the shooters chosen lof.

I usually see NMM on infinity figures. Do you ever see metallic paints? Most of the miniatures seem to be designed with flat colors in mind and I haven't seen it otherwise. Personally, I've used it in on a couple of Katanas, but I usually paint the katanas blue or black.

Also, let's talk about blood effects on miniatures. Is it appropriate? Do you think it meshes with the aesthetic, or should be encouraged in moderation? I've used it once and regretted it.

Do you have any examples of metallic colors or blood effects with your own figures? For example, my Kempei.

>>43864241

Don't have any pics on my phone and I'm at the family house for thanksgiving but my Tohaa symbionts are blue muscle with metallic silver armor plates blue-turquoise helmets.

Other then that I don't use metallics much, sometimes on things like muzzle breaks and belt buckles. Knives too.

I support the blue katanas btw, my Combine all have yellow shaded with orange for their melee weapons

>>43861681
If not base to base, then no you don't get cover. Keep in mind base to base includes if you intersect part of the volume of the silhouette.

Also a common thing issue is people trying to claim cover just by being on elevated terrain on an area that does not have a parapet. For example just standing on smooth box does not grant cover. You must be prone to gain cover on that box.

>>43860079
If you are looking for a non horde yet not super elite army, Nomads fit that bill. They won't win straight up fights against other guys, but tend to lock down the battlefield so that foes have a hard time getting that straight up fight. Tohaa also fall under the non horde/not super elite faction. They are surprisingly aggressive, fast, and durable, but have a rougher time punching through heavier armor.

You will see lots of design variation within factions for two reasons. One is because those factions are made up many smaller subfactions under a single umbrella. Some aren't even the same nationality so to speak.

The second is some of the models are older and there has been a general evolution within that time. Most obviously is the change in design philosophy for the fire arms, especially Pan O and Nomads.

r8 my b8, m8.

More seriously, I'm trying to get into this game again, but the last time I played was a good 3 years ago, and I only played one game. I know I want a USAriadna force, and that I want to use Link teams in a big way, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

One way is to make a 5 man team of Minutemen for my core team, and a 3 man Marauder team with Haris. This leaves me with enough points for a Foxtrot FO and Uragan Traktor MUL, with 80 points left over for a second group. Another way is to make a 5 man Grunt team with the 3 man Marauders, with the same Foxtrot and Uragan, which leaves me with about 120 points to spend.

The problem I'm running into with both of these builds is that I end up blowing all my SWC on Group 1, leaving me with few options for Group 2. I'm thinking of cutting the 3 man Haris Marauders out of Group 1 and putting them in Group 2 with their own cheerleaders, so I can move both groups up on their own order pools and have them support each other. A problem with that is that I'm more or less putting all my eggs in two baskets, which are just a pair of MI link teams, so I'd most likely be lacking in mobile elements like Mavericks.

All that aside, are there any USAriadna units I should definitely take, aside from the core MI I'll definitely be using? I haven't been following the meta, so I'm not sure what makes a competitive army list.

I really liked the OG Daturazi sculpts. Also, wtf happened to my Exrah?

>>43871138

The old Hungries, no question. New ones are incredibly goofilly posed.

>>43871087
2 groups isn't a bad idea in that case. USariadna has plenty of cheap regular figures.

Don't underestimate the effect a few Devil Dogs, Hardcases, Foxtrots, Mavericks, etc, can have. Even without SWC items, active turn advantage, camo, etc, can win fights. 7-8 orders for each group if you're running 2 should be fine, and you're already at 5 each.

USAriadna doesn't really have any bad units, adn they tend to be pretty flexible as to specific roles, so play around, cover your bases, but don't worry too much about specific power units. Honestly, the power units might well prove to be the link teams.

>>43871162
They squatted. They decided they can't do anything with the exrah concept-wise.

Not quite squatted. They're still around, IIRC the faction that contributed soliders is just in the naughty corner.

>>43871087
I believe the conventional wisdom is fit in at least two or more specialists that can deliver themselves either by deployment/infiltration or raw speed (Mavericks) while your links clear the path and bring some backup specialists.

Apply pot stirrers like Devil Dogs, AD, and inferior infiltrating grunts as needed to keep them off kilter.

>>43871807
>>43871645

Taking the advice from these kind anons, I've made this list that incorporates a lot of elements I turned out to be lacking.

The main players are of course the link teams. Minute Men ended up being too pricey for what I wanted to do with this list, so I went with Grunts, giving both teams a good variety of weapons. The non-linked Grunts are the cheerleaders, and the Uragan, Dozer and Foxtrot FO are there for firepower to put down anything the rest of my army might not be able to handle. The Marauder and Airborne are there to keep the pressure on things I might not be able to reach with the Link Teams. I inadvertently ended up with a lot of FO in the process.

One thing that I wanted to add which was too expensive for my taste was the Devil Dog. That said, exactly how useful is the Uragan? It's the only unit I've got that's hackable, and part of the point of my playing Ariadna was so I wouldn't have to deal with hackers. It's a hefty 36 point sink, so if I go without it I could afford a Devil Dog, but I want to be sure I'm not throwing away a very useful unit for something that I wanted to include because it's cool.

>>43872186

It's hackable but keep in mind a hacker can kill it easier by just shooting it

>>43872186

I would say don't be afraid of doing something badass with the airborne ranger, his rifle/assault pistol loadout is deadly as fuck and affordable. You have plenty of FOs already with USAriadna anyway

>>43872186

Personally, I've never rated the Uragan. But a lot of people like them. You tend to have FO's around the place anyway, and it's a cheap pain in the ass in ARO fire. Plus you get the engineer with the Dozer, so it's a fairly efficient combination at the end of the day.
>hackable
Technically yes, but who'd bother? Just shoot the damn thing.

The BS is a nice option for the Mav, but FO is a great specialist to have up your sleeve. You're pretty well provisioned for specialists otherwise though.

The list looks basically solid. Tricky to attack, some good counterattack options, obfuscated LT, good orders, and enough attacking ability. Although I'd love to have a Molotok for the Marauders. The range of the LRL is an acceptable alternative, though.

>>43871138
The Kum resclupts are good, although personally I think dirt bikes would have been more appropriate for them.

>>43872852

Seems like we got just a little of that with USAriadna, which also fits.

1B, 486x500px

>>43872215
>>43872281

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

>>43872484

I might end up using the Marauders as the assault team to the Grunts' fire support anyway, so the Molotok does seem like a good idea. I could swap the HRL for the Molotok by dropping the LT's LGL. Now that I think about it, it might be a pretty good idea to drop the LGL anyway, as I was originally planning on having the LT as part of the Link Team, but it might be a better idea to just have him as a basic trooper. Putting the LT in the back with a bunch of identical cheerleaders would definitely go towards making him a hard target.

One thing about dropping the HRL in favor of the Molotok would be the loss of the MSV 1, but the flamethrowers might be enough to deal with that

As for the FO Marauder, I'd like to take one as well but it costs .5 SWC and I just don't have the SWC left from the teams and Uragan to fund anything else.

All this taken into account, I put another list together that's pretty much my old one, but with a few modifications; LT dropped LGL for a basic loadout, and gave one of the Link grunts a HFT and dropped the Link Grunt's FO, using the extra points to change the HRL for a Molotok, and change one Ranger out for a Rifle/Assault Pistol loadout. I end up with fewer forward observers, but a Marauder team more focused on close in work and a Ranger with better range and hitting power.

I have a feeling either list will work for me in the end, so I'll just save both for when I actually but the minis and see which I like better in practice.

The burst helps a lot. Gives you a measure of reliability when it comes to offense, and it's still dead nasty defensively. Yes, it's not a spitfire, but close up you have your flamethrowers.

>lt cover
Yeah, that's how it goes. And who wants to fight through all the bullshit in the typical ariadnian list to -maybe- get the right guy. Even with impersonators, it's a crapshoot finding the right guy.

>changes
That sounds pretty good. You're still fine for specialists. 2 of them can easily find their targets, and you've got some likely mobile specialist backups, and then at least one or two at the back. That's easily enough, particularly with camo and AD keeping them safeish.
>MSV1
Plus link teams bonuses from the grunts. And yeah, intuitive shots help with that a lot. You've got a dense enough field that any camo stuff's going to be pretty thankless anyway, and anything uncovering has any number of templates to eat.

>>43872979

>>43871666

Gotta say I miss the monobikes as well. Yea, they were a little awkward-looking; but at least they were distinct.

So, I grabbed the USAriadna pack, Van zant, an hardcase and the grunts 4 men pack.
What are the sinergies inside the sectorial? The Maverick looks useless to me and other units (like the Marauders) need two other models for their Haris ability that aren't out yet

>>43875210
Mavericks are going to be solid in ITS play. Fast FOs or cheap fire fighters, they can bring a lot to the table.

SMG LRL profile is solid due to their MSV1 and MI status. They have a close range AP weapon and a ranged template FIRE ammo weapon.

Marauders are in a weird place to me. They could make a decent Haris team due to being able to take a long range defensive weapon like an SR or HRL, rounding off the team with a Paramedic makes them a nice back up team to grab objectives close by. V: Dogged ensuring they have a chance at getting to the objective and pushing the button. Further, MSV1 on their heavy weapon profiles adds a little versatility.

My issue is, they are 4-2 infantry without Shock Immunity, but are V:Dogged. They aren't too expensive either, but are missing the rest of their fire team models as are the Minutemen.

>>43875210
>What are the sinergies inside the sectorial?
This ain't Warmachine. It's all pretty organic.

But hey. If you include Van Zand and anything else, you can shoot them in the face, and then Van Zant can shoot them in the back. It's not quite a boosted attack roll, but I doubt your opponent'll like it.

Beyond that, it's synergies, all the way down. It just depends on how you play them.
>Maverick looks useless
Think harder. Can you really not see a role for a very fast, cheap unit with specialist and decent weapon options?
>aren't out yet
Usual Infinity proviso applies. Nobody cares much about proxies, particularly when they aren't out, as in this case.

>>43875430
>>43875378
thanks

well my issues with the Mavericks is that they're impetuous. being used at fielding Chasseurs at max AVA in Mrrf, I'd rather take a lot of Foxtrots for reliability. I really like the molotok profile though.
Regarding the Marauders, an additional three men fireteam with forward deployment is really nice.
Anyway I have two issues with USAriadna compared to Mrrf: they're pretty SWC intensive, and have no linkable specialists except the FOs (again, there are foxtrots for that)

>>43875559

They're impetuous, not extremely impetuous. They can choose not to do it.

USAriadna does have Linkable non FO specialists in the form of paramedics for grunts and marauders

In fact marauders are awesome since they're dogged specialists

This is a complicating factor, certainly. Alternatively, it's a free order to haul ass for a vunerable target, or possibly objective.
>foxtrots
Hey, take both. USAriadna, bitches! Everything's pretty affordable. I've found they actually work really well together. Nobody wants to crash into the Ariadnian VC field too quickly, and that means your Mavericks tend to have space to work with. With your link teams putting out the firepower as well, the Maverick makes for a very helpful lategame exploiter, or a midgame rusher.

Of course if you're up against camo yourself it all gets a bit hairy, but you get what you pay for.
>linkable specialist
Paramedics as well. Beyond that, I don't see it being particularly bothersome. You're fighting with your link teams, but a lot of the specialist work is well suited to AD and infiltrators or bikes anyway. Clear and secure, kinda deal. And that's if your linkable specialists bite it. FO's enough most of the time, occasional misstep with specific objectives aside.

>>43875559
they are regular impetuous. They don't have to go out and get their asses shot if you don't want to. They don't get partial cover, but they do have smoke and they are better armored than other bikers.

The SWC issue is kind of a wash when they can put down 0.5 SWC snipers in link, and an AP HMG for 1.5. The only 2 SWC profile is the Molotok on the Maverick.

USAriadna does have access to a variety of affordable specialists platforms that deliver themselves, even if they are just FO or Paramedic.

>>43875830
>The SWC issue
The thing that bugs me is the SWC cost for FO Mavericks, and the entire SWC for Haris. Throws everything right out. They're both really enticing options as well.

It balances the other SWC, I'm about at 5.0-5.5 on most of my 300 point lists anyway

>>43875933
Odalisques pay SWC for Haris. And the Maverick FO is still a smoke tossing regular 8-4 specialist for under 20 points. The SWC price is odd, but bearable. It certainly doesn't stick out like Bipandra or Geckos as far as SWC costing.

>>43875967
Even Pi-well?

>>43876668
Geckos make sense costing SWC, all TAGs cost SWC. Bipandra makes no sense though.

>>43876963
Especially Pi-Well.

>>43876973
Bippy costing SWC is probably a holdover from when Doctor costed SWC.

Yep, but there was no reason for the people in charge to keep caring about the solar system once there were habitable planets to take over. I doubt it would be used for much other than basing asteroid mining operations and testing Haqq's terraforming techniques.

>>43875559
Well, Grunts have a linkable Paramedic as do the Marauders. I'll admit USARF is lacking in the Engineering department and in Hacking as well (unsurprisingly).

If anything most of their stuff is cheap. You should be able to hit two combat groups should you please.

Mavericks are Impetuous so you get the option. You aren't forced. Mavericks are a refreshing change from Foxtrot spam.

>>43876973
Except other TAGs have at least armaments worthy of costing their SWC. Sure they being a lot of weapons, but its a bunch of second rate gear for the cost.

And no, the 3 str is not really a justification for that inflated SWC cost, there are HI with two wounds +NWI or 3 wounds that don't take that -6 penalty to dodge or have that vulnerability to additional hacking programs don't pay that additional SWC tax.

I can understand the dual combi being 0.5 SWC and the MK12 1, but not their current costs.

Dual combi has a panzerfaust and a DTW too. Kotail pays SWC for dual combis as well and for good reason.

>>43880345
Their secondary weapons fill it out. My Gecko's panzerfaust has managed to fuck up a full priced TAG or elite HI more than once, and blitzens are nice things to have.

Cradle of humanity, full of important places, but most cities are half empty because space colonization. Valerya Gromoz was born in Albania, but I can't think any other character that is stated to be from there. Many units have their hq there, especially from PanO (Bolts in Dawson, Knights of Sepulchre in Jerusalem, I guess Druze are still in Palestine.) Controlled by religious organisations, while weakened EU represent its humanist side. Alongside PanO, Yu Jing, and to a lesser extent Haqqislam, still control large areas of land, largely the places of their origin. North America was ravaged by Nanowars.

Hijacking this comment to ask:
I get why some of the visors are crosses, but why do so many troops like the orc troops, Kamau, and Auxila from PanO have four to six eyes? What are the other eyes for? Multiple cameras? Can they see out of none of those eyes? Is that it? Looks kinda ugly to me and is part of the recent I can't get into these guys.

>>43888601
This is coming out of my ass but I can come up with some bullshit for it

1. it allows the model better vision (+1 BS)
2. it's a cleaner way of representing MSV

also, Orc troops are the OG of cool

>>43888601
All Infinity soldiers are supposed to be equipped with full nightvision suite. So there's that and probably sensor redundancy in case one gets damaged.

I'm guessing they're extra lenses with various specialist sensors. No need to have your NVG's blocking your regular vision, just have a second second of cameras slightly above your meat ones.

>>43876668

Yeah, particularly with all the units that don't need that much SWC, and SWC free LT's, it's acceptable. Just unfortunate.

>>43877095
She came a very long time after that practise stopped, though. It's at best a reference.

>>43880345
They've got excellent loadouts, though. A Mk12's nothing to scoff at, and they get either Panzerfaust or Blitzen as well. In a very tough little package. All that considering, their SWC cost is passable.
>>43880345
>there are HI with two wounds +NWI or 3 wounds
And you pay for it.
>that vulnerability to additional hacking programs
A fairly minor adjustment from HI, honestly.

They're excellent, flexible attackers for a very competitive price. They'd be way too good if they lacked an SWC cost, particularly with the Nomads not having much HI competition.

>>43881618

Joan, Sun Tzu, and Ectros are in the same price range. However the main point wasn't Gecko's point cost, but the SWC.

None of what it carries intrinsically carry SWC cost even on 2+ wound platforms. Not the MK 12, not the dual combis (Ajax), not the even lower than the chain rifle, and not the Panzerfaust/Blitzen (Magister/Teuton/Haramaki/GRRLS).

I can understand a 0.5 markup due to the platform/having them all together, but paying 1.5 SWC for Mk12, Chain Colt, and Blitzen seems nutty.

Looks like that needs some registering in the ministry of silly walks.

Glad they've toned it down though. At least they aren't break-dancing midfield anymore

>>43893400

Because SWC is generally done on a sectorial by sectorial basis and isn't standardized like points cost. The fact that geckos are still a very strong choice in Corregidor probably means that their current SWC is justified

>>43893369
he'd look a lot better if he was leaning forward a bit more, then it would actually look like he's mid sprint not tip toeing (also then his gun would be pointed more forwards rather than slightly up, makes me think this was intended)

>>43893292
this guy however is a bit of a mess, but if you bent him so he was less horizontal and so only just clearning the barricade it would look more realistic, after watching some of my friends to parkour (they're nuts) they only ever jump as high as is needed to clear the barricade, and if you modified the model to represent that then it'd look way better

>>43894566

HWC is also done on a model by model basis. There's .5 HMG and Spitfires for Nomad mooks, but on a specialized and buffed model, those usually cost 1.5-2 SWC

>>43894608
believe it or not, I like the way they did the sculpt. yeah, he could have been leaning a little more forward but they rather have a balanced model and if you want him a little forward, that is for you to do. Its a lot better the warmaoverhang which is god damn annoying.

Except it's a TAG. Scarface has an SWC cost and he only has Mk12s as well. He's also got a Panzerfaust.

No TAG exists in Infinity ATM that doesn't have an SWC cost.

>>43894662

O-Yoroi obviously wins sexiest pilot.

>>43894861
Twin mk12s are functionally spitfires at 15 damage. The only difference is scavengers can only grab one of them. He's actually getting a SWC discount if you go by the spitfire on a 2+ wound model usually costing 2 SWC.

>>43896590
Guijia model looks better IMO. I would have liked the O-Yoroi more if she looked more beefy like in the artwork.

But the JSA pilot wins by default since I dont think I've ever seen the Guijia pilot

>>43896590
>aesthetics of their sculpts
Guijia by a long shot. I have mine, and it's beautiful.
>personal usage in your lists
Yet to use either, oddly.
>synergy with other units
See above.
>Use as a Lt. Option
I have no intent of using my Guijia as my LT. The O-Yoroi is far better at this for me, as I play Vanilla/JSA only, due to the Kempei being CoC in case it dies.
>bang for buck in pricing
Both are good, at good TAG costs.
>Paintjob
N/A. Haven't done either. Unless you mean studio appearance, in which case, the Guijia takes it.
>additional details?
Holy shit the Guijia was a dream to build. Zero issues, parts fit like they should, and it's easy to base.
