Anyone read through the lifepath preview for the RPG? I really like it. the forcing of some random elements in your character's life is pretty realistic and can make it actually fun getting a character together.
>>
How do you use the peacemaker? I'm going to proxy one in my few games to see if I like it
>>
>>44958883
I personally love it. It could be good both for one-shot silly characters as well as something to really roleplay with. I like the fact that it nudges you to make backstories for your guys.
Also I've made a Tunguska paranoid catgirl Daktari. That's a mark of a good system right there.

Noob here so I just have a couple questions.
When climbing a ladder on a piece of terrain, does that cost movement? Or do you just move up/down the terrain and continue your movement when you reach the top/bottom.
>>
So question for you people who are better at this than me; how the hell do you put pins in these skinny arse legs, it's the one thing that's been stopping me from basing them properly.
>>

>>44959036
Yes, climbing up a ladder counts as regular movement, so you use up your move distance. Climbing up a wall or other piece of terrain counts as using Climbing (or Climbing Plus) skill.

>>44959048
I use a drill that has roughly the same diameter as paperclips. Usually I just look for the part of the foot that covers most surface. Some miniatures that stand flat on their feet I don't pin at all.
But then there's Hellcats or pic related. It's possible to pin them, but it's a bitch to do.
>>
>>44958943
I agree, great work on their end. can't wait to get all the PDFs they unlocked. quite a bit to work with.
>>
>>44959096
yea that's the kind of thing I've got, I'm just afraid of putting it through their shin or something.

Also wondering because I just bought into ALEPH and have some devabots to put together and they really don't have enough surface area on the torso/legs connection for me to be happy.
>>
>>44958883

I like the idea of building up a character's stats based on their life experience. However, neither myself nor most of my players are big fans of forcing random chance on characters' back-stories; but that's why they have a point buy option.

Overall; I'm very much liking what I'm seeing, I can't wait for more chapters come come out, and I really hope that the core book is finalized in time for me to start a campaign early this summer.
>>
>>44958899
They're offer more attack vectors with that Auxbot. Theyre also Repeaters halfway up the board, so you may try some hacking and/or Supportware; Heavy Shotgun+Enhanced Reaction is always fun. Give them a few goes. I actually prefer then over Bulleteers.
>>
>>44959759
I usaully run a Bulleteer with HS against my tohaa friend.
He usually lines his tridents up for some spectacular template hits.
Downing 3 minis with one order is money well spent.
>>
>>44959759
After look at army, I realized that is the perfect unit for how I want to play NCA. Remove two auxilia and the two bulleteers for two peacemakers and have two fusilier specialists (one being a hacker) hmm, this will be fun
>>
>>44959034
How did he gank your Intruder? As long as you keep your cool and don't reveal too early it's hard for him to get the drop on you. He needs to discover before he can get into base to base and once he reveals you have a pretty good chance of pegging him with either a pistol or grenade.

Chimera are more or less wrecking balls than counters to Fidays. Consider things with templates to minimize damage such as Morlocks or Jaguars. Also, Lunokhod's are amazing for making sure he only gets one chance at ganking something.

Also, you have one extra point left over and a basic Spektr. Upgrade him to an FO. Even if you don't play ITS you gain a sweet midrange ARO that can shut down pretty much any rambo.
>>

Uberfall Commandos cannot help you. You need something in TO watching your DZ
>>
>>44960951
>once he reveals you have a pretty good chance of pegging him with either a pistol
Bad rolls.

Basically I had four things hugging a wall: Intruder on the far left near a corner, Daktari next to him, Custodier further right and an Alguacil with her back to them, looking our the right corner. Also another Alguacil was looking at them from behind cover.

He put the Al-Djabeel between Daktari and Custodier, went first and killed them all dodging gunfire until finally the last Alguacil put him down. Just revealed himself immediately and banked on me having a -6 to BS due to shooting into melee. And he even did shoot at the Intruder first and I just had a bad roll with my pistol. After today's game I should repaint my army white, so they'll resemble stormtroopers.

Except the Alguacil, who later pegged a cover-hugging HMG Djanbazaan with a crit at BS3.

Nice catch about the Spektr, I missed that. I was thinking about having one to catch objectives and the other to lay down mines and suppressive fire, but it seems both can do either.
>>
>>44961317
How can an Alguacil crit on BS3? They're BS11 base, and infinity to hit penalties are in groups of 3, so crit numbers for an Alguacil should be 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17.
>>
>>44962009
It was over 33" and the guy was in cover... You're right, it was either 2 or our math was off. Can't really remember now.

We're both pretty new so it takes us a while to calculate all the modifiers still. Also I switch between Nomads and PanO, so it's possible I was counting BS12 base.
>>
I've got a special request Infinity general.
I want you, yes you to make me a Qapu Khalqi list for 300 pts ITS.

No engineers, but you didn't list such models and fuck proxying (yes, there is Ghulam doctor). Link the two Hafza with Obalisques, holoproject the lt as something that the opponent will hopefully ignore (like FO Ghulam), or something he will avoid (such as the sekban in "suboptimal" position).

Also, it's kameel, not kamael. Those are Tohaa infantry. Kamau is PanO infantry.

Anyone think its a bit odd that the pan o tags all have European names, despite their oceanic origin?

PanO contains Europe as well. Their main languages are English and Spanish.
Also I don't see how "Cutter" is exclusively European.
>>
>>44970242

Sounds pretty Euro. I would have just there would be some Asian or Australian names, like the Jumbuk or Bunyip
>>
>>44970539
The Asian stuff is in yu jing
>>
>>44971013
I meant south east asian, like indonesia or timor, which I think is Pan O. Like why couldnt they call the Jotum, "Average Maori woman"?
>>
>>44971090
It's not THAT big.
>>
>>44969903
One is named after a Filipino horse deamon
>>
>>44969903

pan0 is the East Indian Company in Space, so despite most the property not being in England (or lol 'tralia), it's only natural for most of the army units to be based on the dominant colonial power.
>>
>>44974443
except Pan O is an alliance of Australian, New Zealand, Malaysian, Phillipino, Indian, Chilean, and Indonesian companies. The EU continues on its current path towards being a shithole
>>
>>44974578

>>
>>44970539

>>
>>44974654
Yeah, absorbed, as in, Pan O formed out of current second rate countries, and bought europe.
>>
>>44974578

>implying the others are 'equal' in that relationship

After all, you don't see the Hindus or even the Muslims as the dominant religions/cultures there now don't you? Despite being the absolute majority in numbers.
>>
>>44974928
Pretty sure Hinduism is the main religion in India, and the king of Malaysia is also the head of Muslims over there, so im not sure what point youre trying to make
>>
>>44975493

Despite the Church not being the largest religion, they are easily the most powerful, something akin to what happened in the EIC.

Assuming 'democracy' is supposed to work as intended, it stands to reason the Indians should be far more powerful compared to the Anglos, except this clearly isn't the case here.

And there are about 9 sultans in Malaysia, and none of them are anything close to the 'head' of the Muslims.
>>
>>44974928
I bet the Pano takes a absolute hard line on Islamic terrorism as in they'll will flat out not fuck around.
>>
>>44976313
Oh, you were referring to Pan O, not how the constituent countries are now. I get your point, but theres also the possibility that Aus and NZ were the biggest countries, and thats why Pan O is Christian. Keep in mind the most powerful countries in the EU bankrupted themselves going to Ariadna, so I cant see how the EU could be a major player anymore. Plus all the muslims went to haqqislam land
>>
>>44976368

Probably the same vs anything that remotely challenges the power of the Anglo-Iberian megacorps. And the interests of the Chruch of course.
>>
>>44976549

Even if India got into a nuclear war with Pakistan and fragmented into the princely states again, they should by all rights still be far more powerful then anything ANZ could ever be (>1 billion compare to mere 10s of millions) in terms of theoretical voting power (lel).

But that didn't happen for some reason, which is strange seeing how the Indians wouldn't want to play second fiddle for the most part.

Also, Haqqislam has virtually no reference to anything form south and SEA, which is also strange considering those populations are the largest Muslim populations by far compared to what is in Haqqislam
>>
>>44976828
>But that didn't happen for some reason, which is strange seeing how the Indians wouldn't want to play second fiddle for the most part.
Indians have a huge caste system, and whitey is right at the top, plus youre assuminng Pan O is a representative democracy, and i dont think it is, they have some weird corprotocracy.
>Also, Haqqislam has virtually no reference to anything form south and SEA, which is also strange considering those populations are the largest Muslim populations by far compared to what is in Haqqislam
The haqqislam fluff doesnt really mention any country by name that i could see after a quick skim. The lack of SEA named units makes sense, most haqq units are probably named from the Quran

>>
>>44977082

Haqqislam 4 main 'states' is based on Arab, Iranian, Turkish, and various central Asian cultures. If there were a significant influx of south/SE Asians, there should be 'state' based on it.

Also, even if there are plenty of powerful Indians that want to be 'more British then the British', there are plenty of others that won't grovel before them. Guess the first category are the ones in charge.
>>
>>44976828
Haqqislam is about an older version of Islam, back before they took over SEA. Hence >>44977408
Also why the "Silk Trade", "Caravans", and the "Silk Road" are big things for them, as well as doctors, hassassins, and having Mongolian and corsairs in there
>>
>>44969903
>all have Euro names
>what is Varuna, Hindu god of water and the ocean
>what is Tikbalang, Filipino horse demon

So yeah, you do have the Drago, the Jotum, and the Squalos. Seraphs are MilOrders and thus more PanO religious troops rather than secular states.

So 2/5 of the non-MilOrder TAGs are named for Oceania, 2 are Spanish because CB are Spanish, and 1 is Nordic.
>>
>>44977860
They're all referred to as Cuirassiers tho
>>
>>44977743

Even if they are based on a 'older/purer' version, it is still very strange for the most populous segments to be ignored.

Evening Gents
Got a tourney coming up in a couple of weeks

The missions are:
Transmission Matrix

Highly Classified
Nimbus Zone

I'm playing Vanilla Nomads and got my first list pretty much sorted, just wanted some second opinions

300points 5.5SWC

Group1

Reaktion Zond

Vertigo Zond
Reverand Custodier w/ combirifle+marker
Interventor Hacker w/ combirifle
Interventor Hacker w/ combirifle
Tomcat Engineer

Zero (FO)
Spektr (FO)

Group2

Alguacil FO
Alguacil FO
Alguacil Paramedic
Moderator Spitfire or Alguacil w/ light grenade launcher

It should be able to play to the mission for Transmission Matrix and Highly Classified. Would need some luck with supremacy. And I'm not to confident in it for Nimbus Zone.

>>
>>44979092
I'm not seeing any real board control that can't be shut down by smoke or TO ambusher. No mines, nor koalas. You are particularly vulnerable at close range with no templates to guarantee approaches. The general lack of repeaters suggests clumping up if you want any sort of supportware. It also means you aren't leveraging those three HD+ (which is a bit excessive) in any real meaningful ARO potential. Also, your primary objective grabbers are pretty vulnerable to mines, and I don't see the rest of your list having much support to help deal with that. Foes with a lot of camo can ruin your day. Your backup specialists also don't have much in the way to help deliver them.

Consider a Lunokhod, FO remote, Tomcat Doc, Jaguar. A solid long range shooter would not be amiss.

I mistakenly put down a second tomcat engineer, it's actually a doc

Dropped a Reaktion Zond, moderator w/spitfire, and the Alguacil Para for an Intruder w/HMG and a Moderator w/marker.

I like having the 3HD+ as the Interventors a relatively cheap and I can coordinated order any of the B1 hacking programs effectively, specifically white noise and cyber mask.

Due to the abundance of Ice Storm kits in my meta there are alot of MSV hanging around so anything that can shut it down is a plus.

As for repeaters, I built this list specifically towards Transmission matrix. Where the 5 antennas you have to control also act as repeaters for both sides. But I am also now packing 2 markers and 2 deployable repeaters. So I'm hopefully covered that way
>>
So I've been looking at some of the new releases for nomads, and have they abandoned the orange grey/black and white scheme for bakunin in the official paint jobs? because the new moira box and the reverend healer from icestorm are both using red instead.

All the Tunguska units seem to still be rocking more black than the rest of the units, but other than that I'm not sure if they had any distinct pallet differences.

Help me /tg/, I have never done ITS before and now I am signed up for a 400 point ITS event.

What do I need to know? And is this list going to fail hard? I have heard you need ORDERS and SPECIALISTS to win.
>>
>>45005219
Link team should really have a long range gun. You could do with more agile units. Speed, infiltrate, AD, etc. Some more surprises would help, although the Hexas and SG help somewhat in that respect. You're only using a fraction of your SWC, and that's going to hurt you. I'd add something nice to the Bolts, and at least one more good long range shooter.

>>44978124

Well, yeah. Indonesia doesn't have much of a highly varied cavalry tradition. Those names work pretty well for a fast striking unit like TAGs.
>>
>>45005219
Those things certainly help, but it's always important to remember that your enemies can't press buttons if they're dead.

I've never played a 400p game or Neoterra, but something that stands out to me is that you have 2 hackers in your Bolt link. That's a terrible idea, you should get them more guns instead. Link teams should not waste time hacking, and hackers can't do their job in link teams. If you really want a specialist in the team, use a paramedic. I'd also recommend replacing one or both of those mulebots with a TR remote for that sexy HMG goodness.
>>
>>45005300

One of the scenarios is some beacon one that having Baggage helps for I think, hence the Mulebots.

>>
>>45005396
The second groups going to start way down on orders. That could really slow down a few of the decent fighters you have there. The spitfire on the Bolt's a good addition, they'll make good use of it with their link team bonuses and otherwise solid stats. You're certainly inundated with specialists.
>>
>>45005424
I figure at this point the thing to do is test the list and see where it goes.
>>
>>45005435

Always a smart move. NCA was never the most tricky of lists, but a bit of nasty surprises can help your stomy units a lot. With the SG in one group, and the Bolts in the other, you've got some strong attackers as least, but I wonder how much longevity the list has with so few midfielders, and a lot of cheerleader types as well. Deploy those Auxilia, the TR remote, and the link team carefully.
>>
>>45005396
You seem to really like hackers, anon. Personally I'd keep the Deva and Hexa hackers but just make everyone shoot people, since WIL12 BTS0 is pretty abysmal for hacking and with repeaters you can extend the range of your Deva's WIL15. To each his own, I guess

I know my local meta includes one That Guy whose main lists are either Double TAG (probably Jotums at 400), Nomad Hacker Spam or Nomad GML Netlist.infinity

He also plays CA and has been joking about how many scrubz he has owned with Sepsitor "spam"

I have lost so many games to "you can't move for repeaters and markers, now I will immobilise all your HI and/or shit missiles at you"
>>
>>45005566
>I have lost so many games to "you can't move for repeaters and markers, now I will immobilise all your HI and/or shit missiles at you"

Well, this is pretty much why my meta basically doesn't use HI or TAGs at all. It's all Ariadna or LI/MI spam as far as the eye can see.

15 regular players, and about 26 armies between them:
Ariadna: 9 players (5 MRRF, 2 USA, 1 Vanilla, 1 Caledonia)
Nomads: 7 players (all vanilla or Bakunin)
PanO: 2 players (1 vanilla, 1 NeoTerra)
Haqq: 4 players (3 Hassassins, 1 vannila)
Aleph: 2 players (both ASS)
Tohaa: 1 player
CA: 1 player (Morat Vanguard)

The only guy who uses TAGs with any regularity is the PanO vanilla player, and the only hackable HI we regularly see are in both PanO lists and the Morat list. Achilles doesn't even show up in Aleph; it's all MI all the time. We've had a couple of people try to start Yu Jing with a HI focus, and both times they sold the army off inside of 3 months due to getting the shit hacked out of them by the Nomad players.

Disclosure: I play MRRF and Aleph.
>>
>>45005629
Hacking is a wee bit to easy to get to work imo.
Especially when you are forcing your opponent to either get shot to shit or become immobilized and then shot to shit.
Go firdt in seize the antennas or something like that and just drop a repeater and a mine before tagging it.

Tactics like that os what drew me to Haqqislam and Ariadna, something I could not do as well in PanO.
>>
>>45005566
I've never faced a multi-TAG list except for Geckos so I can't help you with that, but my usual response to hacker spam is to shit Kuang Shi all over the board and make them beat up any repeater or hacker that so much as looks sideways at my HI or remotes. It tends to work reasonably well. Not sure if PanO has an equivalent to that, though

WHFB player here, interested in starting.

From what I know, Infinity is almost entirely shooting.

What faction has the best melee units? Any melee monster units?

It looks to me like Combined Army fits the bill most accurately, is that right?
>>
>>45006045

If you REALLY want to go melee, Yu Jing probably has the most units that can pull that off consistently. They certainly pay for that though.

Just don't expect too much from melee though. This game is indeed mostly about shooting, what with being somewhat near-future sci-fi and all.

Not at all. You'll want Yu Jing, PanO Military Orders or Ariadnan Caledonia and Dog-Warriors.
>>
>>45006045

Melee in Infinity is like Melee in Gears of War. Sometimes it's a good move, and there's some units designed for it, but on the whole, shooting is better, even close up.

Yu Jing has a very nice range of melee types, though, although the other factions tend to have at least a few.

>>45006077
And Assault subsection. Or morats.
>>
>>45006042

Also, seems like there would be a killer hacking device option for them or something.
>>
>>45006045
>>45006304

To be fair, CA is capable of fielding their own reasonably good melee units anyway, not like lots of their units have a choice to begin with, being stuck with 'complimentary' melee abilities et al.

>>45006284

So very nice, but a shame he has competition with the HMG version for that single AVA slot.
>>
>>45006161
>>45006077
>>45006065

What I wanted was a giant melee monster unit, akin to a daemon price or warboss. Not basic dudes that get into melee, but 1-2 giant kill machines.

It looked like that was what the Avatar was for, as it has an ODD.
>>
>>45006045
The thing with melee in Infinity is that you can go most games without ever getting into melee combat; a decent number of units that are good at melee combat are also quite expensive points-wise, so they also tend to draw a lot of fire, and thus can die pretty quickly. Getting into melee's often a heavily order-intensive strategy as well, so is generally inefficient (doubly so because a good deal of units with good melee skills, barring domaru and the like, are fairly expensive)

In fact, you'll sometimes see Yu Jing players complain about it (their units tend to have +1 CC stat relative to comparable units in other factions, which translates to an increase in points cost, but most of their units, even melee-focused ones, will never use that CC stat, so it's not really that useful).
>>
>>45006351
>implying you could even afford to take two
Different roles.
>>
>>45006364

Even melee-orientated units like various warband units are typically used for shooting attacks (including templates) or other abilities (like smokes) rather then wasting time in melee.

>>45006362

The Avatar COULD go melee mode, but even that is better off gunning things down and/or possessing most other hapless humies instead.

Also, that ODD does not work in melee just so you know.
>>
>>45006362
ODD is hard countered by MSV2 and is useless in melee. Not just that, Avatar is 137 points, which makes it cost prohibitive in most games. Also, it's melee ability's not too impressive (CC 18 and no martial arts means it has a fair chance to lose to, say, a Crane agent's CC 23 and MA 3 (85% chance to hit vs. 100% chance + 30% auto-crit).

There was a test with the Avatar versus 12 Keisotsu (possibly among the worst basic infantry in the game) a while back on crits can kill and with good planning the equal points-value Keisotsu took the battle fairly easily. In an objective match (which most infinity matches are), 12 orders are obviously better than 1 as well.
>>
>>45006362
Ariadnan Dog warriors come probably the closest. All TAGs want pretty much avoid Close combat. While some have decent stats for it, that act more as a deterrent for small fries.
>>
>>45006388

Why bother with the hacking option when there are other viable alternatives in-faction? Especially when those can infiltrate and do camo as well?
>>
>>45006411
Point of those warband units is to tie most expensive units in melee. That Avatar might be pretty boss, but can't ARO if you have that Jaguar engaged and it might take several orders to dislodge it in the following active turn.
>>
>>45006362

What the CA does have is a terrifying assassin-ish unit that can literally cut pretty much ANYTHING in half with a good roll.

The Speculo Killer can even pop smokes, re-disguise herself, and do it all over again to the horror of everyone else.
>>
>>45006419
>85%
That should be 75%
>>
>>45005629
See, anons, this is why you generally bring a (second) cheap hacker on your team to protect your precious HI.
>Fairy Dust
>Entire Order
>No roll required
>All friendly HI on the table gain Firewall (+3 BTS and -3 WIP of any hacker attempting to hack the HI) for 2 turns

Expensive usage of an order? Sure, but it enables your HI to have a fair chance of surviving those hacking attempts.
>>
WHFB player again, so besides the retarded furries, big models are almost exclusively for shooting (and not punching)?

Also, how important are hackers? Is it as important as having a level 4 wizard in WHFB, or just something nice to have?
>>
>>45006710

Nice to have. Or more specifically, something from the Nice Things hat. Make sure you draw a few things out of the hat, but it doesn't have to be anything in particular. It's a way of dealing with particular issues. For the most part it's useful and gives you flexibility to have one, with maybe something simple to boost range, but you can get more, or not take one at all. Most Ariadnian lists never use hackers, and they do fine. On the other hand, some factions get some very nice hackers that help a lot. Nomads can have an excellent hacker support network without ever really trying.

Valkyria Chronicles or XCom, or FEARLESS are probably better base points than WHF when it comes to the basic nature of the game.
>>
>>45006678
Yeah I'm going to use it alot more because of the absolute nightmare it was having my Father Knight wading through 4 AROs against a pair of Interventors a Brigada and a Zeros from one repeater. Thanks to the batshit BTS of 9 it worked but never again.
>>
>>45006710
>big models are almost exclusively for shooting
Less that and more the fact that almost everything is mostly for shooting; melee-centric units are usually used primarily for their other abilities (smoke, infiltration, objective holding) rather than their ability to kill things in melee.
>>
>>45006710
It's good. Depending on your list some are better than others.
No AD4, REMs or HI?
No need for a basic Hacking Device imo.
Field alot of these things and each hacker can boost your list.

Enemy fielding loads of hackable stuff?
Bring the Assault Hacking Devices and Repeaters and watch him cry in frustration as his guys habe to wade through a few hacking AROs while getting shot at.

useful tool, they can take objectives and if you get HD+ they become very powerful in certain lists. But they become useless if you run up against ariadna or Haq who have little that is hackable. Most games they will spend their time getting objectives, using white noise to remove MSV troops and buffing remotes/HI

my force is nomad who get HD+ and repeaters for cheap, so I take lots of REMs so even if I cant hack I have 3 high WIP specialists(2 interventors and a custard cream) and put a bunch of remotes in crazy mode, with a clockmaker to make them durable as fuck.

Im waiting on EVO REM to come out so I can drop one of my interventors for it
>>
>>45007069

Even against non hackable targets, they can always try to spotlight them or something.
>>
>>45006045
As a faction Yu Jing has the highest CC values and units especially in JSA. Oniwaban, Domaru, Shinibu, etc etc. But there are other really good CC units scattered throughout the game. Ajax, Chimera, Al Djabel, Speculo Killer, etc etc. And they're all good for different reasons. Look for high CC values along with Martial Arts(at least level 3) and any skills or equipment like Natural Born Warrior, Stealth, Berserk, Assault, Camo, Infiltration, Smoke Grenades, etc etc

Close Combat doesnt happen often, but it's really cool when it does. Also you'll need a lot of experience to pull it off, since it's often very difficult to reach base contact.
>>
I feel close combat happens for me once or twice a game, but I run 4 morlocks, 1 or 2 of them normally make it if controlled properly.

changes to N3 have boosted CC quite a bit, using engage is a very useful tool, especially in missions with a small objective room

Dire States is an Infinity only event and it happens where ever people from multple states play. You just have to look out for them. Rumble on Route66 is the biggest. Carlos was at the last one for a seminar. There's the Iowa Incident, I-4 Invasion, Midwest Massacre, etc etc.

Ah, QK then? Depends on what else you bring, but in general I'd recommend the AP HMG. Suppressive fire and high burst keep the guy safe and AP mauls most targets reliably.

You're overestimating the effect a single unsupported hacker LI can have. Ariadna's lack of hackers was never a weakness in the first place, it just meant, like any faction, they tended to emphasise their other tools when it came to killing HI, TAGs, REMs, etc. And god knows they never had an issue with those.
>Low wip for PanO
If you're blowing your orders on a figure who's apparent only possible use is pushing buttons and maybe occasional light hacking (not that they're that much better, statistically), then you've wasted your specop's potential.

Either way, small fish in a big pond.

>Do you guys think of voices for your units?

everything gets a bad anime dub voice

Nomads and Ariadna are full on Angel Cop/Dangaioh tier creative swearing

Pan O/Aleph are all cheesy Gundam Wing/other robot show voices, or MGS stereotypes

My units with full helmets all sound like the Combine's Overwatch soldiers from Half Life 2. All my male Ghulam sound like Antonio Banderas for some reason, though I have a suspicion that it's because I love The 13th Warrior.

Absolutely this. If have a hard time with an army having a disadvantage, wait until real life sets in.

Yes.

Skip ahead to whenever in the video, and wait for the guy to give his units an order. You have to listen a little carefully, but that's essentially what I imagine my dudes sound like.
>>
>>45013030
Nothing really specific except for my REMs. PanO Dronbots sound like Protoss Probes, and the pitch/tone will vary depending on faction and type of REM

My father knight sounds exactly like father Anderson from Hellsing in my head. Joan is obviously voiced by Saber herself. My Cutter, being a remote, I imagine as a 12 year old CoD kid, screaming GETPAWNEDNOOB on his advanced version of a xbox via the livefeed.

Oh and Aleph REMs sound like Tachikomas instead

It is. Someone already made a template that's just cardboard boxes you can cut out and fold up to put on bases.

Goddamit now I want to make a Quiet model for my Hexa Sniper.

Anyone got ideas for a source mini? I don't really want to buy another Tech-Bee bootleg.

Disadvantages are fine when they're subtle. Restriction isn't bad, if the format allows alternatives.
>>
>>45026484
The lollipop Moderator might be a place to start. She's got stockings and a fairly light outfit. Headswap it with a more suitable head, swap out the gun (easy with the pose), and you're mostly there.

>>45025895

Be thankful you never played before Human Sphere then. Every faction was more or less interchangeable. Maybe a few special figures each, but the 'class' sort of motif was very obvious. Every extra book's reduced the amount of sacred cows.
>>
>>45026926

Yeah, Ariadna was originally

>no tech!

Got msv1 and REMs

>well no hackers

Got a selection of three hackers now, not including spec ops

>well, limited availability!

Msv1 is prolific now except in CHA
>>

"Cambridge, I'm steps away"
"And then there's the horny to construct"
"Mickey's rail wanna bust afghani"

I'm reminded how hilarious auto-subtitles are because I have my PC on mute.
>>
>>45027109
It's always been lowtech operators, not caveman level incapability. I think Veteran kazaks have had MSV1 at least since N2. And then there's this cross faction trade element in their later addition (like Anaconda), which is a nice part of overall setting, that no human factions is isolationistic island with wholly original technology.
>>
>>45027109
They only have one type of Rem though and no G: Servants. And they don't have MSV higher than 2. Also pretty much all of their HI is non-hackable. So they're still low-tech.
>>
>>45026320
THIS
>>
>>45027373
You mean higher than 1? I'm pretty sure they haven't got any MSV2 units.
>>
>>45027437
Yes, I've meant higher than 1.
>>
>>45027260
Yeah, MSV1 was always around, if rare. They still don't have any real REMs, power armour, or TAGs. No TO or multi weapons either.

>>45027109

I tend to see it like comparing NATO and Warpact. Everyone has at least a dip into most things, but the specific methods and combinations and tactics tend to work a bit differently.
>>
>>45012803
Can't be that hard? Weibing, dakini, sophotecht, ninja hacker, add kily shit to taste.
>>
>>45027508

Sfoza's pretty great, and CG linkteams are cheap and functional.
>>
>>45012803
I can't be fucked actually finding my lists, but I'll give you the rundown on specialists.

>celestial guard hacker
You should always have one, but he's likely to spend most of his time hacking instead of getting objectives. Can be good in a pinch if he's nearby, or you could get two and put one in a link team.

>pheasant hacker
No.

>sophotect
Sophie is an interesting unit. She's expensive and your only doc/engi option, and she looks tough until you realise that she's got an enormous target on her back. If you use her well she can be very capable, but if you don't use her well she can be very dead.

>zhanying
I have no experience with the hacker whatsoever, but the FO can be very useful. On the other hand, sensor can also be very useful, so think carefully about which loadout you want for your agent.

>crane hacker
I wouldn't use him. He's very expensive, and you miss out on sensor and that sexy X-visor if you take the hacker.

>wu ming
Fucking yes. There's a reason the boarding shotgun Wu Ming comes with the ISS starter. He's tough, he's cheap, he's mobile. Take him.

>dakini/weibing
I like them. They're fast and cheap. Take the Dakini first, it's got far more survivability. Then if you want more speedy remotes specialists, take the Weibing.

>ninja hacker
I really dislike these guys, but if you absolutely need an infiltrating specialist, there's no other option. They're TO camo, which is good, but they're also expensive and covered in melee bullshit you don't need, which is bad.

Technically the anaconda isn't even cross faction, as currently it's exclusively Ariadna
>>
>>45029057
It shouldn't be really.

Also there should be a mercenary version of the Scarface TAG the Ramhorn.... as apparently that's a mass produced para-military "civilian" gear too.
>>
>>45029057
It's a Nomad funded ex-PanO TAG. It's the fluff. Like how Loup Garous use Haqq weapons.
