===TAGs=== *'''Gator Squadron:'''Nomads finally have a 2nd battle tag to compare to Sally. While both have similar roles, Gator tends to be more aggressive. With a shorter range gun (Multi HMG), dedicated anti-CC (NBW, -3CC, and EM+N CC), and area denial (minethrower), Gator does very well pushing early and holding key locations. The NCO option helps to add even more aggression as you now have a decent unit to burn your LT order on, and is your only non-wildcat nco option. At two points its ususally worth taking. Make sure to leverage all of its tools to get the maximum use, throw mines to block ARO's while you punch key HI and Tag units in the face. It's b2 chain rifle allow for some very nasty situations where you take little risk offensively. Very difficult profile to get through due to it's armor 8 in cover, especially with a Moran nearby, ecm hacker, and the potential to go into suppressive, hackers and close range gunfighters tend to struggle to fight it. Not to mention Corrigedor's slew of engineers to bring it back up if needed. However, long range profiles can give it trouble, such mim 6 aro pieces as the Ryuken or Dasyus, or offensive msv pieces in factions with smoke such as the karhu in white co. Make sure it isn't getting shot by these unit archetypes. **Gator Pilot is a special operative, CC monster, and has a boarding shotgun. Don't be afraid to jump out and blast people in the face if needed. *'''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:''' Moderately cheap mid-grade tags. Depending on their booty rolls they can quickly become overwhelming especially if they land +ARM. 50~ point units with Jotun armor are nothing to sneeze at.
