The unit overview and tactica for Nomads.

==Why play Nomads==
Because everyone else does!

Nomads are by far the most popular faction in Infinity and their inclusion in Operation: Icestorm and Operation: Crimson Stone solidified this position. It's not because they are OP or anything, quite the opposite – Nomads are the most "middle ground" or jack-of-all-trades faction, with good stats across the board, Medium Infantry focus and access to most tools in the Human Sphere. Sure, they're expert hackers, but hacking has quite limited applications.

Simply speaking Nomads can do everything quite well without deviating too much in one direction (aside from sexually deviating that is).

==Faction features==

===Special Skills===
'''Hacking area: entire table:''' Nomad hacking capabilities are one of the reasons Ariadna became popular. Nomads have access to HD+ on WIP 14 and 15 profiles for low points and an absurd number of repeaters. Basically, if it's hackable, Nomads will find it. While KHD units could use this to get at Nomad hackers, they may find themselves in a situation not unlike trying to outshoot PanOceania.

'''Courage and Religious Troop:''' Courage being a signature of Corregidor and Religious Troop of Bakunin Reverend Agents. Nomads usually have medium armor, which is enough to survive most shootouts and having your guys stay where you want them is a useful skill.

'''Toolbox units:''' A lot of Nomads units can perform several jobs at once. No, not just having different loadouts – all on one model. It is especially true of Corregidor units.

'''Engineer:''' Being meteorheads, Nomads have quite a few Engineers. Standard issue Clockmakers are better than other factions' equivalents, while all the other ones are engineers in addition to having other skills.

===Weapons and Equipment===
'''Medium armor:''' The classical unit focus of Nomads is Medium Infantry, like Heavy Infantry are to Yu Jing. This means the guys tend to have one wound only, making them susceptible to Shock ammo. Doctors can help them out a lot. Keep faster support in mind.

'''Adhesive Launchers:''' Nomads have as many as 6 units with ADHL and one Akrylat-Kanone. Basically, if you have trouble hacking it, glue it.

'''Underslung Light Flamethrower:''' Nomad units favour Rifle + Light Flamethrower over Rifle + Light Shotgun combo. Good for reacting to an enemy that gets too close or for Intuitive Fire. Position your dudes accordingly, since you can't flame over your own troops.

'''Smoke Grenades:''' Great way to cover your advance, available in spades.

==Units==
===Light Infantry===
*'''Clockmakers:''' A Clockmaker is a premium engineer, able to use her WIP 15 and Burst 2 GizmoKit to very easily fix models that have STR or have suffered the indignity of having states such as isolation applied to them. The Clockmakers are only really engineers though, so you may find the other engineers in faction more interesting for your list. She is also a devil waifu, so.

*'''Corregidor Alguaciles:''' These are the most basic units in the game, they are in fact the bare chassis that all other profiles and units are derived from. They fill the line troop slot, but generally don't get taken in competitive lists as to take the LT costs 1 SWC and you have more efficient options for Order monkeys and specialists. 
**'''Alguacil Vortex Lupe Balboa:''' Costs extra for Mimetism (-3), Dogged and being a Specialist Operative. She also gets a Panzerfaust and access to Smoke Grenades.

*'''Daktari:''' He is a very basic doctor, only taking the bare necessities. This makes him pretty good if you want the choice to be able to revive key models and fight a war of attrition or sustain a bout of bad luck.

*'''Fiddler, Aristeia!'s ex-toymaker:''' The Aristea Trans-Monkey on wheels now has an N4 profile, and it’s sweet as hell! Fiddler is an engineer with insane mobility and can bring peripheral Jackbots (which are Vulkan Shotguns on wheels!). These little fellas give her great utility; however, with the number of cheaper engineers in the faction, she's might not be that cost-effective. Make sure you actually need her on your list.

*'''Hecklers:''' One of our Camouflage units. The most notable profile is probably the one packing a Jammer and a Fastpanda, which can ruin your opponent's plan if they don't expect him. His Camouflage, Stealth and Forward Deployment are a good combo with the Hacker profile.

*'''Jazz and Billie:''' Jazz is for her points the best hacker in the game. The only thing you could possibly want is a BTS stat of 9 or WIP 15. She has a Hacking Device Plus with Trinity (+1 Damage) as a bonus program. This enables her to credibly threaten other hackers, support the rest of the army with White Noise and hide in Cybermask during the reactive turn if the opponent has a Killer Hacking Device. 
**'''Billie:''' He is optionally purchased as a bundle with Jazz. He is excellent by providing an additional Repeater to defend the DZ or to push forward into the table to project hacking control. His E/M Mines are excellent at threatening almost every troop type and his Flash Pulse is useful. He is also an extremely cheap regular order.

*'''Mary Problems, Tactical ÜberHacker:''' A bit of an Interventor on steroids, Mary Problems is the best when it comes to aggressive hacking. Armed with both HD and KHD, she can target everything and her other skills let her reach targets easily. Notable is that she has Oblivion (+1 Burst) and Trinity (AP), easily preserving Nomads' reputation as "the hacker faction"; she's one deadly package. And that's before even getting into Mimetism (-6) + SMG + Forward Deployment + Climbing plus being an evil combo by itself. Getting her out of Suppressive Fire is quite a task.

*'''Moderators from Bakunin:''' Cheaper than the Alguacil, but they definitely 'pay' for it. Hacker is interesting for having BTS 3 and being very cheap. You get what you pay for - which can be good or bad. Although they have a 0.5 SWC Spitfire profile, their BS10 hinders any serious firefight prospect.

*'''Puppetactica Company:''' On his own, the Puppet Master is a 12 points Counterintelligence. Add 2 points more and you get the Minelayer profile for that DZ defense and, for 17 points, you get the Hacker profile. He can also come with 1-3 puppets of your choice, forming a mini fire team with them. The BSG FO is the choice of Puppetbot, because it gives you a 2 wound WIP 14 Specialist Operative with a Boarding Shotgun. For a mid-range firefight, you take the 14 points AP Marksman Rifle (+1 Burst) and Shock. The Red Fury is rarely picked due to it coming with an 1.5 SWC, but it's a +1 Burst Red Fury. Overall, a very good order-efficient unit; for vanilla, they are a disposable ARO piece that you can just deploy to check corners.  In the active turn, they can also face check a mine since they have 2 wounds. Just be careful not to get the Puppet Master killed.

*'''Securitate:''' While with Moderators you lose a few stats to get a cheaper cheerleader compared to Alguaciles, with Securitate you pay a few points for some upgrades. Veteran gives you troops that cannot be Isolated and stay Regular in Loss of Lieutenant, while extra BS makes them better at gunfighting and extra WIP better at grabbing objectives and hacking. Their unique profiles include Feuerbach or a walking Repeater as opposed to a deployable one. But, in the end, they're elite cheerleaders - which usually you want as cheap as possible. If you have a few points to spare (or playing Limited Insertion) it may be worth taking them over Moderators, but they shouldn't be your first pick for the role.
**'''Jelena Kovac, Securitate DI:''' As the named Securitate, Jelena brings a few extra gimmicks. First off, she brings Sensor - which can be nice against certain matchups - and she is a Specialist Operative. Like most of the dire foes characters, she has her uses - but is mostly useful in specific situations.

*'''Tomcats:'''  Excellent selection of parachutist profiles. Doubles as a Climbing Plus assault piece and supporting Specialist for a very attractive price in the form of the Doctor and Engineer profiles. You can repair models that have gone unconscious by the side of the table or score objectives. Profiles with Shock Mines or Repeaters can bully the opponent well. Multi Rifle + LSG engineer is super interesting; being unable to take a Zondcat is a shame, but the guns might make up for it.
**'''Carlotta Kowalsky:''' She is a greatly improved Tomcat engineer. One of four units that can walk in from the opponent's deployment zone table sides. She is decently armed with a Breaker Combi Rifle, +1 burst Adhesive Launcher and Light Flamethrower. She can very quickly put on the hurt on any target by catching them out of cover whilst scoring objectives and classified cards.

*'''Tunguska Cheerkillers:''' The cheapest profile comes at the same cost as the cheapest Securitate. They got one less WIP for better PH and Dodge (+3), Super-jump and MA L1. The Shock CC Weapon can do quick work on light infantry. One of them has an MSV2 and a Shock Marksman Rifle, negating pesky Mimetism, Visibility and Smoke modifiers.

*'''Tunguska Interventors:''' Russian hackers best in world! 24 pts for an HD+ WIP 15 BTS 9 hacker is just insane. With White Noise and Cybermask, supported by regular smoke, an Interventor could easily get where she needs to be, safely. And then another one, a KHD for 22pts is a great hacking ARO piece, making sure the enemies think twice about using your Repeaters against you. Interventors are auto-include against anything HI-based and a popular choice even when not. 

*''' Zoe& П-Well:''' Zoe is a hacker AND an engineer, making her a two-in-one package with an excellent WIP of 15. Her HD has Zero Pain, her GizmoKit gets an extra Burst, and she's bringing D-Charges to the party. She's also got Bioimmunity and Immunity (Shock), making her better at not dying. For 19 points extra, she can bring П-Well - who has a built-in Repeater, Sensor (+6!) and Mimetism (-6).

====Mercenaries====
*'''Aida Swanson, Submondo Smuggler:''' As a smuggler, Booty is an obvious flavor thing but still very nice from time to time. Forward Deployment, MA L2 and Viral Mines, as well as her SMG, makes her role of defending/taking the midfield obvious - she's not the cheapest choice for this role but a competent one, especially if going first.

*'''Armand 'Le Muet', Freelance Killer:''' A Tohaa that sells his services. Has 2 profiles: one with an MSV1 (good for ARO) and the other with Minelayer. Mimetism (-6) and NBW make him no slouch in both ranged (MULTI Sniper Rifle) and melee (Shock CC Weapon) combat. Has a unit profile of a medium infantry when deployed (due to his Symbiont Armor), but once wounded will make him lose the ARM and BTS bonuses alongside the Mimetism (-6).

*'''Authorized Bounty Hunters:''' They've got Booty (ReRoll); also, Stealth can be quite neat in certain situations - but mostly they are a niche unit who can be nice to have if you want to bring something specific to your list you can't have on another unit for some reason. They have a profile with a Spitfire for 1 SWC and another with a 0.5 SWC Red Fury.
**'''Miranda Ashcroft:''' Mimetism -6 makes her a tad reliant in a gunfight. She is neither the cheapest nor the most versatile tool, but she got a few nice twists to her profiles to spice up your list from time to time. She is one of the two units that have a Monofilament CC Weapon in Nomads.

*'''Beasthunters Free Guild:''' A new unit from the TAG Raid game.

*'''Cube Jäger:''' They‘re only a little bit cheaper than the cheapest Tomcat, and they’re irregular. Both profiles bring Paramedic, which seems to be their whole schtick. With WIP 13, they can do the button pressing quite well though and having an SMG and an E/Mitter can be very useful to scare away the opponent's units after a button is pushed. They are one of the two units that have a Monofilament CC Weapon in Nomads.

*'''Krakot Renegades:''' Forward Deployment lets them find the right spot to deploy more easily while MetaChemistry (ReRoll) can give a very nice boost if the RNG-gods are in your favor. The Veteran skill makes them immune to Isolated. Besides that, they're bringing a bit of variety into the roster with their Chest Mines and a Red Fury option. Impetuous makes them both more vulnerable and efficient in taking the midfield - it's a double-edged sword, really.

*'''Knauf, Outlaw Sniper:''' While MSV1 snipers weren't that attractive in N3, the Outrage poster boy turned a whole lot hotter. BS (+1B) and Shock is nasty, and Mimetism (-3) makes using him a bit safer. Besides that, he's not doing much, but that trait also keeps him at an affordable price for a sniper.

*'''Libertos Freedom Fighters:''' Are the highly popular irregular road bump unit, coming with either an SMG or a Light Shotgun, plus Shock Mines. They also get Camouflage and Forward Deployment (8"), Dodge on a 16 and have Dogged!

*'''Monstruckers:''' SPAAAACEEE TRUUUCKIIING! Monstruckers are cheap Irregular engineers with Climbing Plus and a bunch of nice weapon options. The cheapest loadout comes with an SMG and Drop Bears, making it ideal to push a button and turn their position into a foxhole afterward. The other two loadouts are also quite useful, just pick the one supplementing your lists loadout the most.

*'''Motorized Bounty Hunters:''' Very fast, very cheap (Red Fury at only 0.5 SWC) and Booty (ReRoll). As of ITS13, gets Mimetism (-3) if you're playing one of its missions. An identical profile, free of points/SWC costs, is available for some ITS missions. Mostly a short range unit, it's good for flanking or defending a position. Irregular and Impetuous.

*'''Oktavia Grimsdóttir, Icebreake's Harpooner:''' A mercenary character with BS (+1B), Sixth Sense and Dogged. With a Missile Launcher and a Contender, her role is as an ARO piece - however, since she's expensive and barely filling any holes anywhere, the main reason to bring her is the cool sculpts she got.

*'''REM Racers, Mercenary Hacker-Pilots:''' These mercenaries bring quite the fun mechanic into the game: With REM-Driver, they can buff a remote in the list depending on which loadout you pick! There's also a hacker profile, but Nomads would never even consider running it.

*'''Warcors, War Correspondents:''' 3pts for an Irregular Flash Pulse ARO. Fit them into your list whenever you got the slot and points, they're well worth it.

*'''Wild Bill, Legendary Gunslinger:''' He's fast at MOV 6-2, got (+1 Dam) and Shock on his BS; also, he's got Marksmanship and NWI. Neither the Rifle nor the Contender has a nice range band, but with the MULTI Pistol he's got a positive range band of 0-12" - which, overall, makes him an unpleasant close-range fighter.

===Medium Infantry===
*'''Grenzers, Grenz Security Team:''' Some people discount Grenzers for not being Intruders or Nisses. Unlike those chumps, however, Grenzers can pack Missile Launchers. The FO + NCO + Sensor profile is very interesting as it is very easy for him to discover enemy camo and also complete objectives in the midfield, on top of benefiting from using the LT order with NCO. The MULTI Sniper Rifle with Marksmanship may have a place as he will generally shoot on 16. They gain a lot more value in a Tunguska sectorial, but they are not all bad in vanilla either. Shock immunity makes them easier to doctor back up.

*'''Hellcats:''' ARM 2, BTS 3, Courage and Combat Jump +3. Can be taken as either a short or medium gunfighter. Due to the +3 mod they get to Combat Jump, they're the best unit at hot dropping in the game; if you use supportware, you get to drop on an 18. On the off chance that you do fail, having a Spitfire or Hacker profile landing in your Deployment Zone is not as bad. The Deployable Repeater profile is worth mentioning as you can very easily get Repeaters in position in your opponent's DZ to cause massive issues. Even though they have AVA 4, you should not be taking more than 2 as they can be order hungry.

*'''Intruders, Corregidor Assault Commandos:''' The former king, the one that veterans remember calling an auto take. Times have changed, but they are still strong, just not against everything. First off: BS 13, ARM 3, Camouflage and MSV2. Second: can take an MSR or an HMG. Third: Jaguars and Morlocks give you cheap smoke. The Intruder can easily snipe off enemy killer units and ARO pieces from a distance, while the safety of smokescreen and Camouflage lets you abuse Surprise Shot. Unfortunately, the modern trend of powerful hard AROs in core fire teams such as the Kamau has made his job of enemy suppression much harder. Furthermore, the lack of AP on the HMG can make it difficult to quickly tackle enemy armor with him. One wound means it’s easy to lose him to a Djanbazan sniper or a similar unit.

*'''Prowlers:''' This is an interesting unit with Infiltration, Camouflage and hidden deployment. Hidden Deployment allows them to be very safe until you choose to have it reveal itself. The unit is quite good at scoring objectives in ITS due to having specialist operative, D-Charges on three of its profiles and its unit type and classification. The Spitfire is very interesting as a midfield Specialist Operative packing a serious gun that can pop out of nowhere, thanks to Hidden Deployment. The Combi Rifle + Light Flamethrower is fun with the concept of getting an ARO flamethrower on clumps of passing enemy troopers. The KHD benefits from the beefy BTS 6.

*'''Reverend Agents:''' The main Bakunin combat force, the Observants are all Medium Infantry with ARM 3 and Mimetism, designed to fit specific combat roles - but all of them aggressive. Slow and 1-wound, but effective. Variants include:
**'''Reverend Custodiers:''' An alternative choice to Interventors, Custodiers trade a point of WIP for a lot more survivability. So what if you reveal her? Cybermask, White Noise and Mimetism on top of ARM 3 make her quite safe. Also comes with her own Pitcher.
**'''Reverend Healer:''' Or Healer-Killer as fluff would have it, Healers are the ones with Mimetism and high CC skill. WIP14 Doctor, but more than twice the price of a Daktaris.
**'''Reverend Moiras:''' Moiras are a gunfighting unit that uses Mimetism-6 to put the enemy on poor odds as you fire with generally an HMG or Multi Sniper Rifle. They all have NCO, letting them use the LT Order which is quite nice but,  as a group, are quite expensive.  
**'''Reverend Superior Cassandra Kusanagi:''' The head nun is a little package of hurt. BS14 Spitfire paired with Mimetism (-6) lets her win most firefights and NWI is there for those she loses. With a Specialist Operative skill on top, Cassandra is a valid choice even outside Bakunin.

*'''Sin-Eater Observants:''' Sin-Eaters could actually be a nice unit if it weren't for the fact Neurocinetics isn't really a nice thing to have in N4 - at least not on a unit in this price category.

*'''Sombras, Forward Interdiction Team:''' A very tough, mobile midfield unit. They have ARM 3, NWI and Climbing Plus, allowing them to take a hit and move around terrain easily. They're a decent gunfighter with small arms carrying AP ammo or a Burst 4 gun in the form of the Red Fury - which they can use very well very quickly, thanks to Forward Deployment. The Light Shotgun that the MULTI or Breaker Rifle profiles carry can be devastating. The hackers benefit a lot from having BTS 6, Stealth and NWI. The Specialist Operative is very strong due to not being hackable, sporting a Breaker Combi Rifle and access to mines.

*'''Wildcats:''' These have an interesting mix of profiles; the core of them is having BS 13 and MSV1. The Heavy Rocket Launcher is very cheap, while the hackers are an interesting duo to having BTS 6 and firefighting power. The Engineer is a combo of combat unit and relevant specialist. Perhaps most interesting is the Spitfire profile that has NCO.

*'''Zondnautica Rapid Offensive Unit:''' Motorcycles that are also robots! As the name suggests, they are fast and deadly and also surprisingly durable thanks to ARM 3 and Mimetism (-3). Smoke Grenade Launcher and Chain Rifle make them Warband-like, but then they have a BS 12 Spitfire for just one SWC. When dismounted, the bike acts like an oversized Auxbot - meaning you can attack from two directions with them. Just run them forward and raise hell. Notable is that you can create forked AROs with the Zondmate and hacker Zondnaut, as you give the option to dodge the Chain Rifle or Reset against the hack.

===Heavy Infantry===
*'''Diggers, Armed Prospectors:''' A new unit from the TAG Raid game.

*'''Evaders, EVA Tactical Group:''' Evaders are a slower, less durable HI unit thanks to only having 4-4 movement and 1W + NWI. However, they're still very mobile due to Climbing Plus and all count as Specialist Operatives. The AP Spitfire steals the show, giving you an excellent gun on a good chassis and you can choose to make him an Engineer on top of it. An Engineer with an AP Spitfire, what a world! You have the option to take a Feuerbach, Multi Rifle or Boarding Shotgun on him too. Note the Multi Rifle has a Panzerfaust, and the Boarding Shotgun has AP Mines! Many profiles have a TinBot (Firewall (-3)), helping them against hackers.

*'''Kriza Boracs, Special Crisis Unit:''' The Tunguska beatstick, Kriza Borac is a mini-Szalamandra. ARM 5, BS 13 and +1 Burst mean he wants to get in and obliterate anything that's in its path with high Burst firepower. What's more, with the 360º Visor on the Mk12 profile he becomes an absolute nightmare to deal with once in Suppressive Fire. Taskmasters give you more variety for less, but if you want your heavy to just shoot very well, Kriza is your man.

*'''Mobile Brigada:'''  The basic Heavy Infantry option. What sets these apart from other factions' basic HI is that they have ARM 5 and Courage - which is an important perk, since Heavy Infantry are likely to roll Guts a lot. Can take both long and medium range weaponry and the basic MULTI Rifle option also has the ever-present Light Flamethrower. These are your cheapest durable LT. 

*'''Riot Grrls:''' The bane of shitlords everywhere, the Grrls are a cheap Frenzy HI unit with some cracking close range guns and the spicy Missile Launcher. What makes them is that MSV1 is very useful at wiping enemy skirmishers and warbands out of existence. They have +1 Damage on all their weapons, which makes them just that bit more likely to terminate whatever they're shooting at. The Missile Launcher is an interesting ARO piece due to its low cost, durability and the ability of MSV1 to see through smoke and it can be used well in coordinated orders to break especially difficult hard AROs.

*'''Taskmasters:''' The S5 HI of Bakunin brings Minelayer with CrazyKoalas and MA L1 to the table, making it efficient at protecting the backfield. The plain profile comes with a Heavy Shotgun, other options are the HRL, a Red Fury or an HMG (which swaps CrazyKoalas for Shock Mines, what a bummer). In vanilla, they compete with the Kriza - which is just a bit better at gunfighting for a similar price.

*'''The Hollow Men, Tactical Assault Team:''' Highly mobile unit, well-poised to make use of their Super-jump and 6-2 move value to root out dug-in opponents. All of them have Chain-colts, which is lovely on a durable unit like this. The Spitfire is a good medium range gunner in vanilla, but the Multi Rifle + Pitcher profile is most interesting in that it combines a short range gunfighter with a model that supports your hacking game. This unit is extremely durable due to having STR 2 and Remote Presence. Engineering support can really help these go the extra mile.

===TAGs===
*'''Gecko Squadron:''' The best example of the 'light tag' idea. Cheap, durable, packing low-SWC but effective weapons, they fill the slot of a 'superheavy' heavy infantry. Losing one is less of a problem in your list, and their general durability and decent (for a TAG) mobility make them cost-effective. They will do work. 

*'''Iguana Squadron:''' Larger than Gecko, but still a light TAG. Iguana’s claim to fame is the Ejection System and the 2 wound HI Operator. Basically, the Iguana is not designed to last, but to take at least one more shot than a regular TAG before going down. Mounted Repeater means it carries around its own hacker support. Comes with a vanilla HMG and a Heavy Flamethrower.
**The Operator, unlike most TAG pilots, is not a Specialist Operative but does carry an HMG.

*'''Lizard Squad:''' Lizard is a no-nonsense frontline TAG: BS 14, ARM 8, armed with a MULTI HMG and a choice of Heavy Flamethrower or a Heavy Grenade Launcher. Speculative shot anyone? With the amount of engineers and hackers to keep it alive and cheap cheerleaders in form of Moderators, it is easy to build a list around this thing. Not to mention it has the single sexiest pilot model in the range.
**The Lizard Pilot now carries a Submachine Gun on her supple ass, making her a lot more dangerous than before, especially with the ability to use Suppressive Fire. And is also a Specialist Operative.

*'''Szalamandra Squad:''' The very definition of a frontline Rambo unit, Szally is an ARM 8 BS 14 TAG with Hyper-Rapid Magnetic Cannon and Heavy Flamethrower for 2 SWC and 72 points. Compared to the Lizard, it's marginally less dangerous in ARO due to DA instead of EXP ammo, but it's a peerless monster in the active turn - able to mulch the vast majority of long-range targets with five DMG 16 AP/Shock dice from the HMC or simply set them on fire if they get too close. It also makes a great distraction unit, as it forces your opponent to strategize around killing it or risk having it lay waste to their entire army - potentially causing them to make mistakes in the process. Expensive and deadly; when Szally shows up, people take notice.
**With a Contender, the Szalamandra Pilot can defend herself at medium range quite well. And because she's from Tunguska, she's also a Killer Hacker. Nothing like blasting a hacker blocking your path with Trinity. Also very useful at scoring in ITS missions.
**Once had the dubious honor of being arguably the ugliest TAG model in the range, but with the new sculpt it now looks like the terrifying killing machine it was always supposed to be.

*'''Triphammers, Repurposed Industrial TAGs:''' A new unit from the TAG Raid game.

===Remotes===
*'''Zond Remotes:''' Standard issue S3 Remotes, but with a twist here and there.
**'''Meteor:''' Unique to Nomads, it's a Forward Observer Remote like the Stempler - but with AD: Combat Jump and Parachutist. This is awesome and hilarious.
**'''Reaktion:''' The HMG Total Reaction Remote. A good ARO piece and cheerleader for your aggressive troops. Climbing Plus lets you reposition it easier.
**'''Stempler:''' The Forward Observer Remote.  A fast and cheap specialist and a mobile Repeater. Sensor makes for a good alternative to Intruder for Camouflage hunting. Also Climbing Plus. Not essential, but not bad.
**'''Transductor:''' The Repeater/Flash Pulse Remote. Very good to have in vanilla Nomads for increasing your hacking area. An absolute bargain at 7 points.
**'''Vertigo:''' This thing can be very strong in a list that utilizes the faction strengths in spreading Repeaters and taking good hackers. By threatening a guided missile strike after spotlighting an enemy model that wonders through your Repeater area you can discourage them from passing through that area, denying it to the enemy. Furthermore, in the active turn, you can get a Repeater within range of a target, Spotlight them and then destroy them with the missiles. The Missile Launcher in direct fire can be a good hard aro denying areas parallel with your table edge, or later in the game watching your opponent's models.

*'''Lunokhod Sputniks:''' Nomad-specific, come with Heavy Shotguns, D-Charges and Crazy Koalas, as well as Minesweeper, with a Repeater on top. Lunokhods guard your Deployment Zone from enemy infiltrators, clear out mines and can make a good push to mid-field if needed thanks to their high speed. Unlike most remotes, they have both high ARM and BTS values. Mostly a board control unit.

*'''Salyut Zonds:''' Standard issue S4 Baggage Remotes. Come with Deactivator, EVO Hacker and TR Combi profiles. EVO Hacker is for Hellcats lists or putting supportware on remotes.

*'''Tsyklon Sputniks:''' Also Nomad-specific, these are long range combat Remotes for both offense and defense. The X-Visor is mostly useful at long bomb Pitchers into the enemy. These have a Spitfire for medium range gunfighting or a Feuerbach for long range. Unlike most remotes, they have both high ARM and BTS.

*'''Vostok Sputniks:''' A bit of a tank, these have two wounds and very heavy firepower. Most of the profiles have albedo, which prevents MSV units from seeing them on the first battle round. One of the MK12 profiles can choose to give up Albedo for Mimetism (-6), which makes it a fiendish gunner. The Red Fury is notable for having Burst 5, and the Missile Launcher is interesting being Burst 2; both are at only 1 SWC each. As is the norm with Nomad remotes, they have Climbing Plus, which makes them very mobile combined with their 6-4 MOV. For best results, take an EVO hacker for supportware.

===Skirmishers===
*'''Corregidor Bandits:''' Corregidor's only Camouflage Infiltrator and an Irregular unit. Bandits have an unusual set of skills, which makes them the most toolboxy of the infiltrators. An FO/AHD/KD Bandit, for example, is a quick Specialist Operative, ADHL troop and a close combat killer - thanks to Martial Arts 2 and DA CCW. Or you can take a Combi Rifle + Mines + Repeater option for more traditional area denial. Booty can be very funny, the value of getting an HMG or 8-4 movement on these is crazy.

*'''Moran, Maasai Hunters:''' You’d be a Moran not to take one. Walking Repeater, FO profile, infiltration and probably the most importantly: CrazyKoalas. Morans make excellent area denial units and two of them can effectively block off the enemy from advancing. Note that Camouflage units can slip through them.

*'''Spektrs:''' One of two Hidden Deployment-capable units in Nomads, the Spektr is a pretty basic one. Mines on nearly every profile, two specialist ones and decent stats, including WIP 14. Very good at area denial or grabbing objectives.

*'''Zeros:''' Zeros are Mimetism (-3) Camouflage Infiltrators with a bunch of useful profiles. They're not as good at shooting as the Bandits or Spektrs, but their WIP 13 makes them excellent button pushers if you pick either one of the hackers, the FO or the Minelayer.
**'''Bran do Castro, Triple Zero:''' Is a Specialist Operative on both his profiles and pays extra for Super-jump, Climbing Plus, Infiltration (+6) and Martial Arts L3 - making him more versatile than normal Zeros.

===Warbands===
*'''Bakunin Überfallkommando:''' The so-called furry guided missile. The Chimera of the group is silly dangerous with a Viral CCW, Eclipse Grenades, Natural Born Warrior, Martial Arts L2, Total Immunity, CC Attack (-3) and Climbing Plus. Then, on top of that, she can bring 1-3 Pupniks that are synchronized with Dodge (+6) (perfect for soaking up AROs), Climbing Plus and DA CCWs. Just don't let them get caught in the open with their frenzying (use those Eclipse Grenades). Although she can't take a hit, she can Dodge and a gaggle of ultra-cheap Pupniks is dangerous to anything in the game.

*'''Corregidor Jaguars:''' A Warband unit that doubles as cheerleaders and also your Intruder’s best amigos. Jaguars are cheap Regular Orders and smoke chuckers. Can also be used to run at enemies and kill as much as they can before they die (like a regular warband) and a Panzerfaust + ADHL profile is very troll, excellent in coordinated orders.

*'''Die Morlock Gruppe:''' An old classic. These will rip apart enemy armor with their EM CCW. Furthermore, they're very good at destroying enemy skirmishers in the middle of the table by using their WIP 14 to discover or attempt intuitive attacks with their Chain Rifle.  The smoke they provide is invaluable and they pad the list out very well when you're taking heavy infantry, remotes and TAGs. The Morlock with DA CCW is a good choice in missions where anti-materiel is relevant. The Assault Pistol Morlock is great fun at putting Burst 4 into targets. But the EM CCW is generally preferred due to the ease it annihilates armor. 

*'''Perseus, Rogue Myrmidon:''' The easiest thing to write about him is: he's a standard Steel Phalanx character in the wrong army. To elaborate: Mimetism, NWI, high CC, Martial Arts L3, Smoke Grenades, good BS paired with a nice weapon and a Nanopulser... He's a one-man close range killing machine, easily overshadowed by the likes of Ajax or Achilles, which is probably why he's rolling with the Nomads instead. That or he was annoyed by Myrmidons not being able to keep up with his Super-jumping.

*'''Wolfgang Amadeus Wolff:''' {{He's got a MULTI Rifle (+1B) which is nice, but he really wants to get up close; Berserk (+3), MA L3 and a PARA CC Weapon (-6) are probably the meanest combination of things you can bring into CC. To finish the enemy unit off for good, he's also bringing a DA CC Weapon.}} ''ATTENTION: Vanilla Nomads cannot use Wolff in their lists; only the sectorial lists are allowed to use him.''
