==Unit Overview== ===Light Infantry=== *'''Moderators from Bakunin:''' Moderators are the bulk of the law enforcement on Bakunin. They have very low stats compared with other basic troopers. However, that is reflected in their LOW costs. Their equipment is mostly standard; However, instead of HMGs and MLs, they can bring a Spitfire or Combi Rifle+Pitcher. There are two Specialist choices: Hacker or Paramedic. Don't forget that they're also immune to Shock! Individually, they're best for cheerleader roles, Pitcher support, or ITS Specialist. **'''Core:''' Moderators can link up for a very inexpensive Core fireteam. They also happen to have access to one of the most inexpensive Spitfire profiles in the game, however their crappy BS makes this a last resort and stick to a MULTI-Sniper as a defensive option. In a 5-man team their crappy BS10 goes to BS13, but still it's probably better to keep them away from firefights. *'''Bakunin Clockmakers:''' They are very competent WIP15 Engineers with D-Charges, so you should take one especially if you're playing TAGs or Remotes. **'''Zoe and Pi-Well, Special Clockmakers Team:''' For 47pts, you get both Zoe and her AI friend, Pi-Well! Remember that they are NOT a G:Synchronized unit, so they don't have to follow coherency rules and Pi-Well does not deactivate if Zoe falls. ***'''Zoe:''' Zoe is a Clockmaker character with Engineer as well as a Hacking Device. Her Hacking Device is upgraded with '''Stop!'''. WIP15 makes her very competent for both skills, and for ITS, she's got it all covered - especially in Highly Classified or other missions get can benefit either Hackers or Engineers. She's a very soft target in gunfights, so it's a good idea to keep her safe from harm. As a hacker Zoe can buff REMs like Pi-Well with Supportware. ***'''Pi-Well:''' Pi-Well is basically a S2 Stempler Zond, but with ODD. His ODD gives him a much better edge in firefights, and his Repeater allows Hackers like Zoe to buff him with Supportware. For ITS, he is a WIP13 Forward Observer. *'''Daktari (Daks, Campaign Doctors):''' Daktari is the cheap, backline Doctor option, especially compared with the Reverend Healer or Avicenna. However, the speed and WIP of Avicenna leaves her overshadowed. *'''Warcors, War Correspondents:''' 3pts Irregular Flash Pulse ARO piece with 360 visor. Don't underestimate that WIP13 Flash Pulse. *'''Avicenna, Mercenary Doctor:''' If you really need a fast moving Doctor, take Avicenna instead. She also has Doc Plus, a 6" move value and V:NWI. Worth the points for a singular doc. In combat she's very short ranged and lack any defensive skills like Mimetism. Keep her out of LoF from enemy snipers and other troopers with Shock or Viral. ===Medium Infantry=== *'''Reverend Moiras:''' Reverend Moiras are a high-end <s>sexy nuns</s> Medium Infantry. 4-2MOV makes them pretty slow, but ARM3 protects them. In firefights, ODD gives Reverend Moiras a huge advantage over their foes especially with their good BS12. They also have a good PH12 though with no Throwing Weapons, and WIP14 makes the Assault Hacker a capable specialist. Though ARM3 in cover is strong against incoming shots, Moiras completely lack BTS. Individually, there's not much to offer especially in comparison to other troopers in the same price range like Prowlers, Custodiers, and even Riot Grrls. **'''Core:''' The Moiras can form a Core Fireteam of <s>sexy nuns</s> dangerous troopers with ODD. In a Core team, their slow MOV is greatly mitigated by the movement bonus. The Moiras are also incredibly scary to go up against in gun fights; In a 5-man team, they have an increased BS of 15, and with ODD they're super hard to contest. The increased BS is also very useful when Speculative Firing with the E/M Grenade Launcher(a very rare weapon). Add an Assault Hacker to make them ITS ready. Despite all the positives, this fireteam has a hefty toll on both points and SWC (if you want to include more than just a HMG). **'''Reverend Superior Cassandra Kusanagi:''' Kusanagi is the Reverend Moira character. She has similar stats except for a higher BS14 and PH13, and she's got V:NWI and is a Specialist Operative. Kusanagi really has 2 weapon options with a LT option for both: Spitfire and the other that brings a Multi Rifle+LFT with E/M Grenades. Both options have good potential and the Multi Rifle LT even increases the SWC allotment. However, she is super expensive costing as much as high-end Heavy Infantry. ***'''Core/Haris:''' Cassandra Kusanagi can join a Core Fireteam of Reverend Moiras. In this team, her Multi Rifle+LFT can be put to good use. Her high PH and Fireteam bonuses allows for decent Speculative Fire with her E/M Grenades. Though her Multi Rifle is short ranged, a Moira with a HMG can cover those long range support. Cassandra can also join a Haris team of Reverend Custodiers. In this team, her Spitfire becomes far more relevant because Custodiers lack any high burst weapons. This team is a great little Specialist team that can take on gunfights. For either team, Kusanagi is a WIP14 Specialist Operative, and, though Moiras and Custodiers are expensive, ODD fireteams can be super deadly. *'''Reverend Custodiers:''' Some of the best hackers in the Nomads army outside of Tunguska. They have access to either an HD+ or AHD, the latter with the Icebreaker upgrade. WIP14 and BTS3 makes them really good hackers, and they have BS12, ARM3, and ODD for gunfights. They have 3 weapon options, but the most best choice are the Combi Rifle + Pitchers - which makes her a rare Hacker that bring her own hacking support. Custodiers also makes for an excellent -though somewhat obvious- LT option. **'''Haris:''' Though they have the Haris skill in their profile, there isn't much of a point to have three hackers in a single team albeit it could be good for ITS specialist roles. They lack a strong point man with a high burst gun unless you add Kusanagi as a lead this team. Otherwise, they can add a healer to their team with a MULTI-rifle to gain the burst bonus as a TL and patch up any wounds. *'''Reverend Healers:''' Healers are yet another high-end MI from Bakunin. As their name would suggest, they are all Doctors and with WIP14. Unfortunately, they only have Mimetism which in itself is not bad, but certainly not at the same level of protection as ODD like on the Moira and Custodier. They only have 3 weapon options -Boarding Shotgun, Multi Rifle, Combi Rifle- and they're all short ranged. They also carry an EXP CC weapon; paired with CC19 and their short range weapons, Healers are a pure defense unit for your <s>Sisters of Battle</s>warrior nuns. **'''Fireteams:''' The Healer does not have either Core or Haris skill in their profile, but 1 can join either a Reverend Moira Core or Custodier Haris. Traditionally, filler troopers for Fireteams are taken with the cheapest option just to get all of those bonuses. The Reverend Healer is less in cost than most of the main team options, but still pretty pricey. Though only armed with a rather short ranged gun, her doctoring adds to the survival of the team as well as being a ITS Specialist. *'''Sin-Eater Observants:''' Sin-Eaters are some of the most deadliest ARO troopers in the game with their high BS, Mimetism, Neurocinetics, and their array of great weapon options. They only need to move to get into better positions; mimetism gives the Sin-Eater a big advantage over the target especially in Partial Cover. The HMG is the most widely used for the longer rangebands and the Burst, but the other weapon options are good too; The Sin-Eater wields them at a very good BS13. The Sin-Eater IS Religious, however - which can be good or bad. *'''Prowlers:''' The Cable to Corregidor's Deadpool (Senor Massacre) in the form of a high cost Medium Infantry with Bioimmunity, camo and Infiltration. The Spitfire options makes for a brutal shock trooper, but the Combi Rifle+LFT with ADHL option is a fantastic toolbox unit especially with the Specialist Operative option for 0.5 SWC. ===Heavy Infantry=== *'''Riot Grrls:''' Anarcho Feminists with pretty good profile BS, PH and WIP. They are your only source of MSV and even then, it's only MSV1. Hyper-Dynamics L1 allows them to dodge with a +3MOD to PH. They have the usual standard weapon options many HIs (Combi Rifles, Multi Rifles, ML, Spitfire, BSG), but the most intriguing would be the Stun Grenades, hitting more reliably even from Speculative Fire thanks to their PH. The Combi Rifle option also comes with a Blitzen which is dangerous versus enemy TAGs and HI as well as Isolating any other targets. They have a single specialist option in the form of a Specialist Operative. Watch out! because these bitches have Frenzy which mean they will Impetuous the following turn after they've caused a Wound. **'''Core:''' It's a good idea to take a Spitfire as the point <s>man</s>person, a Specialist Operative, and a BSG with a TinBot B to bounce assault hackers. If you want some more range there is the ML or Blitzen options as well. Stun Grenades suddenly become more potent in Speculative Fire, and, with SSL2, they can dodge on PH16. These girls can dominate the midfield. **'''Haris:''' Tidy, low-cost team. There is a Haris option for a fireteam with a smaller footprint. They can be a great little team for fire support, and/or even escort a Specialist Operative to the Objective leaving you another CORE option elsewhere. You obviously get the combi/Blitzen; take the BSG tinbot for defense and either the spitfire or missile launcher for a TL. *'''Taskmasters, Bakunin SWAST Team:''' [[Orks|Dead 'ard, killy and armed to da teef!]] S5 heavies with great BS13, PH14, WIP13, and strong ARM5/BTS6. Not only do they have imposing stats and excellent weapons (especially that Red Fury but the HMG choice is somewhat underwhelming), they also offer board control with CrazyKoalas. Martial Arts L1 gives them Stealth and V:Courage, and Free Agent can be a useful skill as well. They are high cost troopers, but there isn't much competition in the price range and tabletop role. The only thing that these bruisers will struggle against are things with high armour saves - TAGs are their hard counter. **'''Duo:''' In a Duo, a pair of beastly Taskmasters will march down the field to take on just about anything. They have NO specialist options, so these guys are solely for fire support and board control. ===TAG=== *'''Lizard Squad:''' Fairly standard TAG stats and armed with a Multi HMG and either a Heavy Grenade Launcher or a Heavy Flamethrower. While expensive, with the higher than average WIP on Nomad Engineers like the Clockmaker they become more effective compared to similar models in other factions. Use the HGL option if you plan on doing some Speculative Fire. HFT is great for crowds and Fire sensitive targets. **'''Lizard Pilot:''' She carries a SMG on her supple ass, making her a lot more dangerous than before, especially with the ability to use Suppressive Fire. She is also a Specialist Operative with WIP13. ===Remotes=== Nomads have a fantastic selection of REMs to choose from each out offering something different. They also have some of the best Hackers, so it's a good idea to include a basic Hacker or HD+ for Supportware. *'''Zond Remotes:''' Basic S3 REMs. **'''Stempler:''' Standard issue toolbox (Forward Observer, Sat-Lock, Sensor, Repeater) REM, but with Climbing Plus. **'''Reaktion:''' Total Reaction, 360 Visor HMG REM, but with Climbing Plus. **'''Vertigo:''' Standard remote with Smart Missile Launcher. Bakunin has access to a whole lot of hacking support as well as Forward Observers, so guided strikes may come in handy. **'''Transductor:''' Super cheap 8pt Flash Pulse bots with Mimetism and Repeater. Great for order generation, Flash Pulse coverage, and Repeater influence. *'''Meteor Zond:''' The same as a Stempler Zond but, instead of Climbing Plus, it gets +1PH and '''AD:Combat Jump'''. It's easy to walk in on a board edge for ITS Objectives, increasing hacking influence, and/or harassment. *'''Salyut Zonds:''' Standard issue S4 Baggage Remotes with Minesweeper, EVO Hacker, or Combi Rifle/Total Reaction options. EVO Hacker is fantastic for Overclocking some of the best REMs like the Lunokhod or Tsyklon Sputniks and even the Transductors. *'''Lunokhod Sputniks:''' Lunokhods are tough Nomad Combat REMs with ARM3 and BTS6. There are only 2 options, but both offer a TON of board control: 6-4MOV and Climbing Plus lets them get just about anywhere, Heavy Shotgun for close encounters especially versus Camo/ODD, Minesweeper to take enemy deployables and AI Beacons, Repeater to extend hacking influences, D-Charges for the Sabotage Classified, and even a pair of CrazyKoalas! The only difference is Heavy Flamethrower or the ADHL (even more utility!). *'''Tsyklon Sputniks:''' Tsyklons have the exact same chassis as the Lunokhods, but they drop Minesweeper in favor of both 360 Visor and X-Visor. Tsyklons also benefit from the fast 6-4MOV with Climbing Plus, robust ARM/BTS, and Repeater. However, they're built for more longer ranged fights with either Spitfire or Feuerbach. Both come with Pitchers which can help dominate with infowar even further. *'''Zondbots:''' Keep your Doctors or Engineers safe by giving them a Zondbot. They are possibly far more useful for your Engineers depending on how many REMs there are in your list. ===Skirmishers=== *'''Zeros:''' Zeros are a bare bones CH:Camouflage Infiltrator. For a cheap price, Zeros have average profile stats, but a plethora of options. Side for the one E/Mauler option, all loadouts include Antipersonnel Mines. There are 3 specialist choices: Assault Hacker, Killer Hacker, and Forward Observer. With AVA 3 and their low cost, they're an easy include for any army list. In missions without exclusion zones, cheap infiltrating camo specialists are nigh auto-includes regardless of faction, and the price of Zeroes makes them a very good choice. **'''Bran Do Castro (Triple Zero):''' Bran Do Castro is effectively a character Zero with several bio-modifications. Firstly, his CC rockets up to CC22 and and physique goes to PH13. He has Superior Infiltration (though the infiltration roll may not be worth the risk even with +3MOD), Martial Arts L3, Super Jump, AND Climbing Plus; Bran can go anywhere! There are 2 options: He just average BS, so the BSG can greatly increase his accuracy in the short range. But the other option is a Specialist Operative with a Combi Rifle+E/Mitter - which doesn't have the great +6 shotgun range, but can go into Suppression Fire. Even though Bran's got a strong CC stats, his best targets are basic bitches as opposed to more dedicated enemy CC troopers. He is an excellent choice if you are expecting an enemy to have a specialist, sniper, or Lieutenant model hiding on a rooftop somewhere. ===Warband=== *'''Bakunin Uberfallkommando:''' Generally considered one of the best close combat units in the game. Their unique skill combination makes them an extremely effective infiltrator denial tool, good at not only protecting a large area of the table due but also being extremely effective at discovering CH:Camouflage markers and removing Mines through the Dodge Skill. The Chimera is the team's weakness, because if she dies her G:Synchronized Pupniks go inert. Thankfully, she's got PH13 for her Eclipse Grenades and Total Immunity in case she takes a hit. The team is also Extremely Impetuous and Irregular, which is reflected in the rather low cost. Despite some of those drawbacks, the team is fast and very mobile with 6-4 MOV and Climbing Plus. The Pupniks will dodge on a PH19 thanks to Hyper-Dynamics L2. Eclipse Grenades can isolate their target(s), allowing you to engage only one or two models at a time. In CC, the Chimera wields a Viral CCW at CC21, and gets Burst and PH bonuses for each Pupnik in the brawl. Her Natural Born Warrior is the ultimate counter to enemy CC specialists as well. **The Chimera can take 0-3 Pupniks, but should always take the full complement of three unless you really, really need an extra point somewhere. *'''Der Morlock Gruppe:''' Standard warband infantry, Irregular and Extremely Impetuous, with high PH13, a Chain Rifle, a variety of close-combat weapons and Smoke Grenades. They also have a Bakunin twist in the form of MetaChemistry. The two most noteworthy profiles are the 6pt Chain Rifle Smoke Grenade choice and the 8pt with the same loadout only with an Assault Pistol in place of the normal sidearm, allowing you to surprise your opponent with a large amount of dice in close ranges.
