Yeah, the blurb how troops in ORC -armor painted their helmets with scary images in Paradiso offensives has pretty much always been there, but always forgotten. I guess it's largely due how little flat, easy to freehand surface area there is in the helmet between all the eyes and curves.

Dumb question time.

Let's say you move 4". It ends in LoF of somebody, and also sets off a mine/perimeter weapon.

You declare dodge as your second short skill.

Let's say you roll an eight, which passes, but your opponent rolls a nine in shooting you? Do you successfully dodge the mine but still take the damage from the shot in ARO or do you take damage from both the mine and the ARO shot?
>>
>>47269999

I believe that would be the former. Your dodge against the mine is not a FtF roll, just a PH roll. What happens in the FtF happens separately.

Is there any good way to store rosters? Codes require army builder to view them and are not very reliable since Army6 is far from perfect and I've already lost my lists twice. Is storing them in notepad the best option for now, or maybe there is a way to save roster as a good ol PDF with "open in Army..." button?

So I tried out Tic-Tac-Toe this evening at 200 points and it seems like a neat mission.
Won a clutch victory at the end by ramboing a Janissary doctor along a flank, claiming 2 antennae previously connected by my opponent and making a line.

Does anyone play much at points different from 300 points? I have a soft spot for 200 points games- 150 seems to small to be able to have viable order pools, but at 200 points you can fit some neat stuff in whilst having to wrangle to get enough orders in.
Or is 300 still the staple for most?

Moderators hang out in backfield as garbage bullet sprinklers and order generators, protecting the home base and a flank and pinch hitting as an aggressive unit in dire needs.

Riot grrrls will be aggressive objective grabbers: get there ASAP and either grab and control it, or cover it in terrible ARO's. In a pinch, break the ink for suppression fire.

Lizard plays hero.

salyut hangs out with either the grrls to reload them, or lizard to protect it from hacking with the reverend, who will likely be luitenant, but i have the moderator flagged as one too for when i want to switch it up.
>>
>>47272335
Dao Fei don't have grenade launchers. MSV ARO pieces, DTW DZ guards, and TR bots. Who were you playing as?
>>
>>47272545
They were Knights of Montesa. My opponent deployed using proxy models and refused to tell me what they were until after deployment. Turns out this is cheating so whatever
>>
>>47271200

I think 300 is the staple, really. 400 is too unwieldy, and 200 is pretty restrictive particularly for armies like CA and ALEPH.

>>47272596

Your opponent was a total cheating dick, if he's proxying you should know what they are from the start. In my area we go over all the open info units/armaments before the game starts. If he wants to play that shit next time, hack them the fuck to death or shoot them in the back with your own infiltrators. Or just don't play against him.
>>
>>47272674
I mean, I tried really hard but I was down five orders on turn one. My Intruder sniper and iguana and Interventor all just failed their rolls across multiple turns. I conceded after my medic died trying G to revive my sniper and the iguana got isolated and destroyed.
>>
>>47271200
300pts is the standard. 200pts can be really fun, because at that level listbuilding a more of a challenge. Unfortunately it leaves out the more expensive troopers and elite armies might struggle.

I've played a 400pt game once with my Steel Phalanx. It's fun every now and then kinda like what 40k apocalypse used to be, but I've not a fan of regular 400pt games
>>
So yeah, what can you do to deal with a fire team duo of Knights with Mechanized Deployment besides just roll better? Because I dumped everyrhing into those guys at optimum ranges and did nothing
>>
>>47272696

Sometimes dice happen and they'll wreck your best-laid plans. Next time another solution might be hacking them with Spotlight, then using a guided missile launcher.
>>
>>47272947
No guided missiles in Nomads that I know of.
>>
>>47273017

The Vertigo Zond has a smart missile launcher.
>>
>>47273017
Every single faction in the game has guided missiles. They're on one of the robots. Next time take a Spektr and hack it out of TO, or a bunch of bandits, moran, and zeros, and fill the infiltration zone with deployable repeaters, drop them in ARO, and hack through them
>>
>>47273085
I mean, I tried that, it didn't work. The dudes just reset every time until their hacker isolated my remote
>>
>>47273237
When he's resetting he's not killing your dudes, also what hacking program were you using. All you need to do is make sure he doesn't wreck all your shit before your active turn, because at the end of the day, he only has a multi rifle and ARM 4 protecting him, no mimetism or any of that shit. you can just send anything with a vaguely big gun after him, and rely on superior burst.
>>
>>47273339
His dudes had Grenade launchers and I was using an Interventor. I tried both Gotcha and Oblivion on my active and neither worked. On his next turn my Repeaters were all dead and that was that
>>
>>47273725
Grenades launchers aint shit, just don't group your dudes, and it's effectively a combi rifle. There shouldn't be too much trouble dealing with Montessa on the active turn, though since they cheated it's obviously a bit harder to prepare. Can you post your list?
>>
>>47273801
Army code ok? I'm on currently on mobile

Any my main issue was that all of my dudes were dead after top of one. After that he just made saves or dodged. HMG and sniper bullets apparently can do fuck all to these guys
>>
>>47273943
You should have stuck to 10 orders max. There's a lot of cheerleaders there, but the only thing you have to push with is the Iguana. Also if you're going to have hacking, Moderators would be better cheerleaders i think.
Maybe something like:
KwBgjAPgzCIRAmAHAUgCxgJwrMBA2FAQjELRAHYc0lsi0UpNhqZiwp0QGwaxiEnDD1CcibNAn64oCdnPKdeFFkQQMMLXGDlqNuHMDD8SILvwSYsxKBoRbgTFAAEwqctl6ZdUFpMK45DZ+BIZBzs5AA==
To give you better reaction, allow you to use more hacking, and give you a second offensive vector with the HMG Intruder, in case the Iguana is in a bad spot.
>>
>>47274439
I honestly don't think the iguana is even worth it. He doesn't actually do anything besides die and the Intruder is a better HMG guy
>>
>>47269903
To be honest it seems like regulars make shitty links. Their only good reactive weapons is a sapper, the FO option costs SWC and they don't get any really good guns like missile launchers. I guess the sensor is good linked.
>>
is the muyib minelayer considered a specialist?
>>
>>47275109
No. Only Hackers, Forward Observers, Chain of Command, Doctors, Engineers, Paramedics, and Specialist Operatives are specialists.
>>
>>47275320
Lieutenant doesn't count as a specialist? thank you for clarifying the minelayer question
>>
>>47275344

Not unless they're also a hacker, doctor, etc. By itself, it is not. This is also why FO's are generally valuable - they're often cheap, plentiful specialists.
>>
>>47275344
They can be if they have one of those skills/equipment. For example a Reverend Custodier Lt with a HD+ is a specialist. This also applies to other skills they may have like minelayer like Yuriko Oda who is an Engineer with the minelayer skill

Anyone know if it's ok to play the Bootleg minis. While I'm not going to do something silly like fielding the top half of a tag, I was thinking of using the Aleph Penthesilea.
>>
>>47276135
I guess it would depend what you're playing her as. As far as I know she doesn't have a statline for the bike and everything? If she does, I don't see why you couldn't. If you're using her for an aragato or something I guess it would depend what the base sizes and everything are. I have to confess I don't really know how much they match up. It was my understanding most of the bootlegs are just decorative or in some cases usable as HVTs.
>>
>>47276135
I can see absolutely no problem with that. I think it's even ITS legal, since she is a model for Penny, and there is no requirement that the models fielded must fully represent their load-out. If some TO says you can't, call him a cunt for me please.

>>47276388
Penthesilia is fielded on a bike.
>>
>>47276135
Yeah Bootleg Penny is cool. I have one for an alternative Penny, but I've seen people use her as another Kum Biker. Just be clear to your opponent anytime you use a proxy model.
>>
>>47276893
But I'm thinking of playing Aleph. You know, the mode the model is modeled after? also am sad I can't use CORE link teams in Steel Phylanx.

>To be honest it seems like regulars make shitty links.
They were decent on the offensive. I usually included two spitfires, minelayer, and two plain profiles. Push up the middle, put mines on objectives and establish area control. I could do a lot with them in N2 but with people figuring out the game (more camo, smoke/msv2 is always good), as well as change to coordinated order (I loved to push, break the link, attack with three modes, form up the link again) and link team changes I sort of lost love for them. They're probably still decent with B:5 spitfire and bonuses to LGL but I don't really see *that* great of a need for a link of them. I also don't like to run regular with MSR, his cost is cheap but Bagh Mari are really attractive option in N3. LSG/MSV 1 means that even sneaky TO infiltrator needs to think twice.

I think NCA can run two traditional fireteams with greater efficiency.
>>
>>47279467
Doubling down on spitfires or hmgs seems a high cost for some redundancy and slightly better AROs.

Given my local meta is currently pretty mad, with the last tournament featuring an ISS list with 9 holoecho markers and 3 tigerbots, I want to try something off the wall myself.

No Duo Orcs in NCA, I'm afaraid. I'd guess you can take Haris Orcs with only two members.

Haris Orcs (HMG Lt, HMG, Shotgun) and core Fusilier specialist link could be fun
>>
>>47280270
I'd take a tinbot MULTI rifle instead of that second big gun. You don't need 2 HMGs in a Haris link, that's a massive SWC investment for something that will lose its burst bonus as soon as one guy dies. Plus a linked MULTI rifle can put out some brutal AROs.

Thanks, any youtube manuals how to paint them good and hot?

>>47282168
Use them like you would with a normal Kum Biker. Theyre a good rambo/alpha-strike suicide unit. Zuleyka is great against crowds like Fireteams or singled out targets with low BTS. Zamira is decent, but doesnt offer much. She's simply an upgraded version of the Kum Biker with LSG

It's all matter of you getting the hang of bikers. They need some practice and finese to use, because of their extremely impetuous nature. Plus the 8" mov value can get you into trouble if you dont plan for the first turn impetous phase to get them moving up without getting shot up. I usually take 3 bikers and what I like to do is to to have each biker provide smoke cover for the next during the Inpetuous Phase which will be even easier for me now that Muttawiahs get smoke grenades. Try to avoid shock ammo and MSV2 and 3.
>>
>>47282357
Hmm, Zamira is indeed pretty much identical to regular Kum, Point of CC and BS more, point of lower WIP (among the lowest in Haqq). Kinda makes you wonder what her role is. At least they could have given her something fancy, like nanopulser.

Dumb new question time part two, electric boogaloo:

You've got a model, it moves up, someone AROs to shoot it, you declare dodge, you pass dodge, you take your 2-4 inches of free movement from sucessfully passing a dodge, now you're in the trigger range of a mine or perimeter weapon like the crazy koala.

Do you: take a hit from the mine/perimeter weapon and a damage roll for it

ignore the damage from the mine/weapon as you already passed your dodge roll

or not activate the mine/perimeter weapon?

You only get the extra movement in reactive phase.
>>
>>47287858
You don't move from dodge during the active turn, you only move from dodge as an ARO.
>>
>>47288003
>>47288015
Oh, ok, but still, question stands,

if you succesfully dodge in ARO, and that movement ends in the trigger range of a mine or perimeter weapon, does that set it off and if so do you take damage or do you already ignore it from the passed dodge roll?
>>
>>47287914
In both the old and new rules Koalas only go off as an ARO. Mines will still go off whenever an enemy model or camo token activates in range, so active or reactive.
>>
>>47288066
It's covered in the latest FAQ. The mine goes off because when you declare you are dodging you have to state where you are attempting to dodge to, which in your example would be the area of the mine. Since the mine goes off your dodge roll becomes a normal roll -3 to dodge the mine.

What happens if you shoot and dodge?

>>47288941
You can't, they're both short actions

Do you guys think official Infinity missions might be a little too geared towards specialists? On one hand, I really like the emphasis on objectives over killing. On the other, would it really hurt the game if objectives tests operated more like 20x20 (only mission specific specialists get the bonus a bonus or no minus to objective rolls, all other models can do objective rolls at heavy penalties)?

CB is pretty much afraid of experiencing another Tournament Season like during 2014, where the Avatar combo list wiped out any possible enemy.

Infinity is an easy to break game if CB just fails on any single thing. It's fragile.

Everybody wants to play with their TAGs and win missions with them, but CB does not want to allow that.

So what exactly is Nomad hacking supposed to do? Everyone I talk to says this is the thing they do best and what allows them to win games, but it seems kind of useless.

Either no one brings hackable models, they always reset, or their bts is so high they just make their saves anyway. I've only ever seen one hacker succeed at anything and it was after three or four tries and they only succeeded in the slimmest of margins.

So what do these guys do exactly? Because it looks like Nomads really suck other wise and their are plenty of counters available that just wreck whatever other tricks they have.

Board control with the amount of repeaters available, even accidentally on things you'd normally take like Forward Observers, Morans, TAGs or remotes, meaning it's a real bad idea to field HI, remotes, or TAGs in a short distance, making you choose between Dodge or reset, frelling you in either option, plus they can easily do a lot the hacker related classified.
>>
>>47291818
Hacking is just one more piece in the Nomad toolbox. They get powerful devices cheap and repeaters that can be anywhere with almost no effort. The HD+ may not have the raw power of a specialist device at its best, but it's got ano answer for multiple problems.

While it's not as powerful as it used to be, being able to spotlight a missile in is a legit low risk tool that can pay big dividends.
>>
>>47292121
So this makes sense in theory and I've seen people try it. It usually just means the active player just murders your repeater guys with speculative fire or just takes the hit from the hacker, makes their bts save, and then murders everything.

>>47292292
Saw that too, unless they were going after really shitty models the spotlight failed because they made their reset roll pretty much every time. Only way I've seen it work is after the Nomad player spends two to three orders to do it and then they finally succeed.

It was a fluke, but I watched multiple games where the Interventor failed multiple times. Nomad player eventually gave up after five orders and nothing happening

>>47292292
Spotlight is legitimately shit now, though. It can be nice against link teams that you really don't want to deal with directly, but an automatic -3 to your roll combined with burst 1 means it rarely actually works.

>>47292401
On the reactive turn hacking is just about area denial. A hacker ARO might fail, but the consequences aren't anywhere near as dire as failing a shooting ARO and if you succeed then that's seriously inconvenient (and potentially devastating if he's near the end of his turn) for your opponent.

On the active turn things are a bit different. Hacking is there for the utility. You've got supportware, you've got all sorts of crazy shit that a HD+ can do, you've got a bunch of attack programs for remotes, HI and TAGs you don't want to get shot by, you've even got programs that can let you murder the enemy with their own TAG.

>spec fire
That shit makes hacking look like the most reliable thing in the world. Best case scenario is that you're spending an entire order on something that's burst 1 and -3 BS/PH. It's for dealing with shit like link teams, not for killing every repeater that shows up.
>>
>>47293720
Qapu Khalqi is as close as you get to a merc faction, and they have access to Yuan Yuans who are literal space pirates. They live on shitty spaceships hidden in asteroids and their economy is based on pillage, rape, and slave trafficking.

Then are the Bashi Bazouks who are adventurers contracted as corsair crew to sweep and secure boarded ships. Some have military backgrounds but had forgotten discipline, so they are hard to control. Most infamous moment was the massacre of hundreds of civilians during the Silk Revolts.

Other mercenary units include the Druze Shock Teams who are known for brutality most infamously for slaughtering Caledonian villages during the Ariadna Commercial Conflicts.

Then the Kaplan Tactical Services who are the courageous and honorable mercs and well integrated into the Haqqislam military. They often work directly with the Sultanate
>>
>>47294160
That sounds like tons of fun. Looking at the intro guide makes it sound like they focus a lot on light infantry skullduggery. I will probably pick up the starter and maybe some of the mercs(Yuan Yuans look cool) and see where I can go for there. Thanks a ton for the advice.
>>
>>47294264
QK is surprisingly versatile. They can field a full 5 man link team of powered armored heavy infantry. They can field two different mercenary leased TAG mechs. They have tons of options for different fireteams. They've got great medium infantry options. You can do a lot with them.

Ah, you're the whiny Nomad guy that probably hasn't learned how to play his guys effectively or had rolls go wrong too many times.

It's not that Hacking is what Nomads do best, it's that Nomads are the best at Hacking. But they do way more. Good warbands in form of Chimera, Jaguars and Morlocks, smoke + Intruder combo, good ARO pieces like Sin Eaters or ML Brigadas, good aggressive HI link (Riot Grrls), cheap TAGs (Lizard has effective 4 wounds), Crazy Koalas and mine laying models everywhere, Tomcats grabbing objectives and going in from the side reviving your dudes and a lot of ADHLs. But you have to be aware your opponents probably know those tricks, because Nomads are very popular.

Honestly it's starting to sound like you've taken Nomads because you expected them to win games for you without much input. But it doesn't work that way; you need to learn how to not leave your guys in the open and which one to use for AROs, where to set up your mines and repeaters and which models you can sacrifice. And also that sometimes dice just don't go you way.

You're starting to sound like a new MtG guy that heard from other newbs about how "overpowered" blue decks are, made a shitty control deck and is now whining that control is hard to play and it's not winning as much as you'd like.

No? Sorry, first time post, long time lurker. Genuinely trying to figure out how this stuff works since all the things you listed haven't.

I've noticed that whatever tricks Nomads have there's either something that does it better or just straight counters it. I honestly picked up nomads because I thought they looked cool, if I wanted easy wins I'd have with Ariadna or Aleph
>>
>>47295271
Of course there exist counters to everything in this game, otherwise shit would be broken.

The important thing to know is that you can't have the counter to everything in every army list.
>>
>>47295271
>>47294502
Meant to add that I was also asking because I see a lot of other Nomad players running into the same problems. They can't accomplish anything and gutted shut down pretty trivially by whatever they're up against. I've seen this happen locally at all levels and from other people online. Seems Nomads are super popular but not all that good
>>
>>47295283
This doesn't seem accurate considering you're supposed to bring two lists to ITS and know the scenarios ahead of time. If you know your meta well enough it's easy to build two lists to counter pretty much anything
>>
>>47295306
>>47295271
Most factions can do most things, so it's the little things that stand out that are worth noting. Everything has a counter, it's just that some counters are more or less difficult to include in your list or more or less difficult to implement.

As for Nomads, they have arguably the best medium infantry in the game (Wildcats are relatively cheap with a wide variety of options that can make them quite cost-effective and flexible) which is noteworthy because a good number of factions lack a good middle ground between cheap LI and very expensive HI.

Nomads also have the best access to HD+ and reasonably priced access to HD and an enormous amount of Deployable Repeaters, which gives very good battlefield control. Zeros are good. Jaguars are good. Riot Grrls are good. Mobile Brigada (used sparingly) are good. Sin Eaters are good. Other factions would kill for an Intruder.

>>
>>47295386
I mean, I think you're probably right but I've seen all of these get shut down by literally one model available to PanO, the Aquila Guard, or just random stuff like template weapons on Aux Bots.

To go off the example above, the Nomad player in that game just couldn't kill the Aquila Guard. They dumped a ton orders to try and hack him and he just reset or blasted the Nomads with an ARO. The Intruder Sniper and Mobile Brigada got shot down pretty trivially and an auxbot with heavy flamer ran up the table and burned the link team of Wildcats. Anecdotal sure, but I've seen similar things happen in other games and experienced it first hand.
>>
>>47295516
>>47295386
Granted this was Corregidor and not technically vanilla Nomads. So I guess you're correct
>>
>>47295516
>Aquila Guard
Well, yeah, the Aquila's one of the best units in NCA. He has BS 15 (1 point higher than any unit in any non-PanO army), PH14, ARM4, BTS 6, 2 wounds, and MSV3. Presumably he had his HMG, right?

So that's pretty rough, especially if he gets into good cover with suppression. But let's break it down:
- First note: you can hack without LoF. This is why deployable repeaters are nice. Place one around a corner or behind a wall, trigger an ARO anytime they get within 8".
- Secondly, using an Intruder MSR against an AG is... not usually a good trade. He has 2 wounds, so he's immune to shock, and even with AP if he's in cover that's still +5 to his ARM roll, which means you only have a 25% chance to kill him outright in your active turn even if he wasn't shooting back, whereas when he's firing back he's at BS15 and ignoring your camo.
- That being said, as with many powerful units, it's often a better idea to delay it or keep it busy while you go murder cheerleaders. Melee is an option (Aquila's only CC15 and Morlocks will eat him alive). Templates and explosive weapons are good, as are high burst weapons.

As for the wildcat link. Well, yeah, that's what you're supposed to do to counter link teams. Run up with direct template weapons and kill them dead.

Also, using Aquila Guard + a bunch of Auxilla forms the basis of many NCA lists, so it's something you'll have to learn to deal with anyway.
>>
>>47295516
That's what you get for using low burst hacking attacks in LoF of your opponent. That whole I can hack through walls thing is a pretty big hint for how hacking is meant to be used. Sounds like the Nomad player was expecting hacking to be some super powerful weaboo fighting magic, when really it's just another weapon that's suited to to different circumstances then guns.
>>
>>47295748
>>47295730
So continuing with this example how do counter this one specific model? Hackers are cool but the only thing you can do is what, Oblivion? That's neat but I've seen an Aquila Guard fail his BTS save maybe once? And on the one occasion I did see that happen an Engineer just bonked him with a wrench and he was back in the fight.

Now this just one model in one faction.
>>
>>47295811
Use LI with repeaters to give you the ability to hack the auxbot as it comes down the field. Slow their advance with Moran, or TR bots, or Intruder Sniper (keep him way back, so he's out of good range band of HMG), or minelaying/hacking infiltrators. Then on your active turn take the Wildcat link and shove B3 BS16 HRL up his ass. Dam 15 with failed saves causing additional hit will fuck anything up eventually. If it's closer, use B5 spitfire.
>>
>>47295875
So play Corregidor? I was worried you'd say that. The locals and everyone else I've talked to online has said playing vanilla was stupid and Corregidor was the only way to go. Guess I gotta go buy Wildcats now
>>
>>47295875
Template mode is actually the way to go with targets in cover. Dam 14 vs Armor 4 is way better odds than Dam 15 vs Armor 7.

>>47295811
Also out maneuver opposing troops using AD and infiltrators. If your opponent can't get into a good position or is being starved of orders, then he can't use his rambo effectively.

Massacre can also help you avoid fire with eclipse grenades. If you are in Vanilla, the Chimera or White Noise can sub in. The former also pretty much eats the AG for lunch.

A TR bot in good position with marksmanship is an ugly prospect for NCA to face. If you can jockey into a position where you aren't outranged by Snipers (hello climbing plus), you have a good chance of burning a lot of orders while fishing for crits vs TO/ODD models.

And if all else fails, bring a bigger gun. BS 15 that ignores most defensive tech is rough, but he has no defensive tech himself. On active, our TAGs from the Iguana up can force the issue. BS 14 active vs BS 15 ARO aren't bad odds, especially if you are slinging AP rounds.
>>
>>47295983
They're the best looking models Nomads have anyways so I don't see any problem.
>>
>>47295983
You're taking the wrong message from this. If anything Vanilla has a lot access easier to tools to take him down or nullify him.
>>
>>47295811
Against an Aquila I'd recommend White Noise. Assault hackers are the only ones that should actively be using dedicated attack programs because they get the best ones. Carbonite is great for disabling TR remotes and annoying HI so they can be murdered. Normal hacking devices aren't weapons, they're tools. Supportware is a big part of their worth.
>>
>>47295811
All the advice in the world won't help you if you don't want to listen to it.
>>
>>47295983
I assumed you played Corregidor because you mentioned Corregidor. Any HMG HI, and most MI will take down an AG on the active turn, because the AG has no defensive measures in terms of shooting. In vanilla, you should be able to get a Hellcat or Prowler Boarding shotgun within 8 inches, and ignore their cover. You'll be B2 BS18, vs B1 BS9, you could also go after everything else in the list and starve the AG for orders. Uberfall Commando will murder him in CC, as will MOrlocks, Bandits, and Jaguars. For a blunt instrument like an AG there are a lot of options to take it down, what makes itr a challenge is using those options without the support troops fucking up your plan.

>>47296095
This like 5000% percent. Considering cheap HD+ are for nomads, it should be simple to put down white noise, and then just hammer him with HMG while he's at -6 to shoot back
>>
>>47296063
>>47296063
I didn't want to have to play the same faction as 50% of the other dudes in my meta. When I picked this up I had no idea nomads were this popular. Wildcats are super cool, I was just hoping to avoid any must buy units just to win a game or two. I guess it can't be helped though.

>>47296095
This is the only thing I've found to be somewhat helpful. Most people seem to try it but then their repeater guys become the primary target. So I suppose people just need to be careful with their dudes. Unfortunately this doesn't work against all the other PanO dudes that are going to be murdering you.

Yea just from the experimental list building I've been doing they're packed with dirty tricks. Holo 2 specialists, tons of drop troops, impersonators (someone on the forums made a list that throws 9 impersonation tokens at your opponent). Govads fixed their most glaring weakness and they seem really fun with great units. I'm happy I found them, just gotta paint them up and buy some stuff to flesh them out. Lasiq viral rifle suppression is damn dirty.

>>47296413
Maybe they're all shit. I imagine Nomads tend to attract the kind of neckbeard weaboo furry player who reeks of incompetence. I think you should be the one to lead them to a new age of victory, showers, and wearing deodorant. Go Anon, use the meager advice we have given you and seize your destiny. Also are you playing ITS missions, or pitched battle type scenarios, because Pan O has an objective advantage over everyone else in a pitched battle.

>>
>>47296293
>their repeater guys become the primary target
If you're playing in a way that an enemy can pick out what unit it wants to devour first and then easily kill them, you're playing wrong. Nomads are all about board control and hacking is only part of that. You should have mines, several nasty ARO pieces, and probably some CrazyKoalas to make moving across the board an absolute bitch.

>Unfortunately this doesn't work against all the other PanO dudes that are going to be murdering you.
It's not meant to. But the value of hacking devices is their versatility. They can shut down MSV units, they can take objectives, they can serve as area denial, and they can lay down supportware. Hackers are a toolbox, only AHDs are made purely for immobilizing dudes and that's why they're the only ones that are good at it.
>>
>>47296413

You're doing well anon. Some models are tough to deal with. There's only a handful of MSV 3 models in the game, and they're also some of the most expensive non-TAG models in the game. Which, coincidentally, also tends to make them incredibly powerful. Inevitably there's going to be players/models that just make you scream with frustration, and sometimes the dice are going to fuck you. Your flawless Sun Tzu masterplan will get wrecked by a fusilier making 5 dodges in a row, you'll get crit on 2s, etc. The goal is to stack as many modifiers in your favor to make that as unlikely as possible.

The main thing working against the Aquilla guard is that he doesn't have any defensive bonuses like mimitism. He's all offense.This is why white noise is so devastating, it shuts him down 100% and lets you take shots at him with snipers/rockets/HMGs for free. For extra fun, sneak a repeater near him and start using them in ARO to handicap him in his active turn too.

Aquilla's also suffer heavily from that dreaded foe. Going Around Corners. His HMG's terrible range brackets up close and the difficulty in getting cover while going around corners make him sad.

A guy with a shotgun puts him in serious danger if it camps a corner with a shotgun. A couple of guys watching the same corner can risk evaporating basically every HI in the game or force him to go another way.

No need; vanilla Nomads have better hackers and access to stuff like Spektr or Meteor. Hidden deploy the spooks and then shoot the guy in the back or mine midfield; he can't dodge and shoot at the same time and when he's shooting mines, he's not shooting your guys. Also Hellcats to drop on cheerleaders or again, shoot AG in the back. Carlota or Bandit to glue him or cut in CC. Aquila is not unkillable; mine certainly wasn't so far.

Got me all excited for a moment there, was about to tell Yu Jing their Kuang Shi can suck my dick. It's also corroborated by the HSN3 book, but then, Yudbots also give a Regular order in that, so Spanish laziness I guess

You're just trying to play yu jing at this point. Tohaa's main advantage is it's budget symbio troops. You're bringing all the expensive ones, which end up being worse versions of human heavies.

So I should go as full poland as possible?

>>47298471
Kumotail if you actually want to fix your dudes. Sakiel if you want to throw nimbus and move towards objectives. You've got a decent number of good specialists in the Kotail and Clipsos, so I'd lean towards the Kumotail.

>>47299043
What units are you even referring to? I get Ectros/Neema and maybe the Taqeul, but all the others are pretty cheap for what they are.

Ey guys, Smagg here. Sorry for the incoming blogpost.

I'm currently researching webcomic hosting services to have all my strips in one place. I think I'll go with WordPress, because that seems the simplest and most effective while not being tumblr.

But I don't really have a name for my strip collective. I think I should use a game term, one that's not limited to one faction (despite my PanO focus; there's some Nomad and ALEPH comics coming later), but I don't have too many ideas. I like "Irregular Order", but that sounds a bit too similar to Irregular Webcomic.

What would you suggest?
>>
>>47303451

I think Chain of Command would work well. Some others that might work are Metachemistry, G:Mnemonica, or Free Agent.
>>
>>47303451
How about

>Inspiring Leadership
>Holoprojector
>Surprise Shot

if we're going with game terms. These seem to fit a webcomic idea of showing all sorts of scenes from around the Human Sphere.
>>
>>47303558
>Free Agent
That could be a nice alias for the author.
>>
>>47303451

Cube 3.0
>>
>>47303558
And yeah, Chain of Command is another good one. Possibly the best one yet, because anything retarded that happens in military often is the fault of the chain of command and stupid regulations.
>>
>>47303558
>>47303576
>>47303587
>>47303592
Interesting suggestions. I'm also thinking about something with Order pool in it (like Empty Order Pool or Orders Spent) or with Hyperpowers. Or maybe a reference or a pun on Human Sphere.
>>
>>47303703
Do it the way Bostria pronounces it.

This is the type of stuff I love for Infinity. Images not of war, but of the units performing their usual duties.

As an aside note, does anyone know what the Ariadnan cities look like in comparison to how the usual Infinity terrain tends to be?

>>47306039
That pic is subjectively my favorite piece of infinity artwork and I bless the day that one anon brought it up again upon request several hours later so I could save it to my hard drive again.

>>47306233
From what I understand, it's pretty much an expy of the modern times, early twenty first century. So picture something like 2020 Atlanta, Georgia or suburban Moscow.
