===Heavy Infantry=== *'''Achilles:''' The lighter flavor: Mimetism -6 is pure value. Less resilient than a light TAG but with none of the pitfalls, Achilles guns his way up the board until he can CC your face off. There's little in the game that Achilles does not want to fight, and he's among the most durable of the recreations. Treat him like an easier-to-hide TAG. **'''Achilles V2 (Corinthian Armor):''' The heavier flavor. Mimetism -3, with the addition of Frenzy. Be warned that he will go impetuous after causing a wound to a target, so he will lose the benefit of cover. In exchange, he's 10pts cheaper than his light-armor cousin, has more armor, and forward deployment. In the Corinthian Armor, he functions as a miniature (but fierce) battle TAG, but with no fear of close combat, warbands, or Total Control. *'''Ajax the Great, Myrmidon Officer:''' Achilles' prototype, Ajax is a high-armor, 2+NWI-wound model that shrugs off damage and can explode anything he sees within 8 inches of him. Berserk lets him basically take a wound in exchange for making sure something dies, while his +1 burst and damage means he's a short-ranged 0SWC Spitfire when he can't reach his targets. *'''Asuras:''' Expensive MSV3 heavy infantry with 2 wounds and No Wound Incapacitation. That's the gimmick. When you think you're going to be wading hip-deep in camouflage markers, the Asura will never be Surprise Attacked and automatically passes its Discover check. This trooper is not a favorite among Aleph players, but it does serve a purpose. *'''Hector, Homerid Champion:''' 2+NWI trooper, meaning he's resilient and can dodge good. Like Achilles, he's good in melee, though he might not want to end up there. What's interesting is his Plasma Rifle, being one of the few humans in all of Infinity to have one. Flexible and a decent gun, but pretty expensive for what you get. Can be a Lieutenant. ** His Lt(+1 order) is fantastic, but he has a split personality when taken like that. If you take him with that profile though, you'll be torn between leaving him back to pump orders into your list, and running him forward with his x-visor'd Plasma Rifle. He's too expensive and too critical to do either of those well. *'''[Dead] Patroclus, Myrmidon Special Officer:''' Sad, sad Patroclus, meeting his end just like in the Homeric Epic. He was a weird profile and cost to begin with, but with him gone Achilles can no longer join any kind of fireteam.
