Infinity/N4 Tactics/Ariadna

The unit overview and tactica for Ariadna (STILL WIP) Please add to this, as N4 has invalidated much of the N3 tactics.

Why play Ariadna

Ariadnans are the descendants of a lost colony ship to colonize planet Dawn. The wormhole to Earth collapsed after their landing stranding them from the rest of humanity. Thinking they were abandoned by Earth, they had to survive the harsh environments of Dawn and constant Antipode offensives. After many years of isolation and bloodshed, the Hyperpowers of the Human Sphere, PanOceanian and Yu Jing, finally makes contact - to claim the planet for the rich levels of Teseum. Ariadna fought back, seeing them as invaders rather than saviors, and is a nation recognized by O-12.

Though the rest of the Human Sphere went through a burst of technological achievements, Ariadna's tech did not. However, the deadly environments their planet makes them tougher than any Human Sphere trooper. This faction boasts a high level of Physique, and a lot of Camouflage and Infiltration as well as heavy firepower. Ariadna has mainly Cossack, American, French, and Scottish troopers with a splash of werewolves. Play Ariadna if you want tough survivalists who don't take shit from anybody. Play them, because you didn't want friends anyway.

Faction Features

Due to the lower levels of technology, Ariadna has ZERO MSV2 or higher, TO Camo, very little hacking, etc etc. However, they have many ways to compensate for it.

Special Skills

• Camouflage/Infiltration: Ariadna is commonly known as a "Camo Spam" army, because of the higher number of troopers with a level of Camouflage, and Infiltration as well as other skills such as Ambush Camouflage and Minelayer.

• Swole: All troopers in this faction has higher than average PH values allowing them to Dodge and use Throwing Weapons better.

• Transmutation: After taking a wound, a Dog-Warrior can transform into a ferocious werewolf.

Equipment

• AP: Ariadna has plenty of guns with AP ammunition -Rifles, HMGs, Heavy Pistols, etc etc- to deal with heavier armored troopers.

• T2: The planet is rich in Teseum. Teseum is a valuable resource used for spaceship building. Ariadnans use them for ammunition and CCWs. T2 is a very deadly ammo type, and is exclusive to Ariadna (mostly Caledonians)

• Smoke Grenades: There are a LOT of Smoke Grenades in this army. However, zero MSV2 or higher. Use Smoke Grenades to cover your advance or Dodge.

• Hacking (Lack of): Ariadna has very little in the way of hacking, but it's there if you need it. Remember: Hackers are not required to bring Traktor Muls.
