===REM=== *'''Dakini Tacbots:''' Dakinis are the line infantry of OSS, besides the CSU they are your cheapest troopers and come with the distinct advantage of having 6-4 move and mimetism in their base profile. This makes them quite powerful for their cost and they can contend with stronger units in the active turn, they are however quite vulnerable in the reactive since they are subject to hacking, E/M, weak against templates and have no template weapons of their own. Lone Dakinis make for good budget raiders on a flank but can't be depended upon to hold the line. **'''Core/Special Core:''' Dakinis can form a Core team. This makes for a crazy fast team with a surprising punch for such cheap troopers. They can be enhanced even further if you bring an Apsara to boost one of the team members, or if you bring an EVO hacker to put supportware on them, if you can pull both off at the same time in a five man team then this can stack to an effective total bonus of +8 BS! The Core Fireteam can also bring along up to one CSU as a cheap filler with a Breaker Rifle, Shotgun, Nanopulser and/or specialist. Devas, Rudras and Samekh are Wildcards and can also join a Dakini fireteam, most likely to be the Link Leader with a better gun, or to provide specialist, Sensor or Hacking duties. *'''Garuda Tacbots:''' Garudas are essentially Dakinis but with Airborne Deployment: Combat jump. AD is a powerful trick to have that punishes an enemy that does not deploy smartly, and the Garuda is so cheap that you should always bring one (unless you always bring one and your opponent is expecting one, then don't bring one just once). Don't forget that you can bring it in on your turn 2 if there were no opportunities earlier, and if it has to sit out the game because you have other better opportunities then it is not a big deal for the Garuda is cheap, very cheap. The Shotgun variant is excellent here as the Garuda starts up close to the enemy anyway and can potentially leverage that template to clear out several enemies at once. *'''Rudras GunBots:''' It is a Heavy Infantry in REM form. All loadouts bring the Mine Dispenser, which is an excellent tool for blocking enemy camo markers or to lock down groups of enemies from advancing or even reacting. The Rudras gets your choice of Multi Rifle, K1 Marksman Rifle or for one SWC you get the Red Fury. Do not forget that the Rudras bring their own Repeater coverage too and for a single order if you have an EVO hacker you can give them assisted fire to give them an effective BS of 15! They also have Climbing Plus and 6-4 move so they can get wherever they want fast. **'''Special Fireteam Rules:''' The Rudras can join any Fireteam! *'''Rebots:''' OS have the same general REMs as everybody else. **'''Daleth:''' The toobox remote. For 17 points this nets you a fast specialist with plenty of tools for solving many kinds of problems that the enemy throws at you. It also comes with Climbing Plus for an extra bit of mobility. **'''Zayin:''' The Total Reaction HMG bot, its only special feature is that it has Climbing Plus, this comes up far less than one would think. It is only AVA 1 in OSS. **'''Samehk:''' Is also only AVA 1. Either it is a normal Guided Missile Launcher as we are used to, or... ***'''Special Fireteam Rules:''' In OSS you can play it as a Wildcard, in which case is costs an extra point and gets a flash pulse, it can still launch guided missiles. This makes it into a cheap filler for Deva or Yadu fireteams, it is quite the menacing ARO weapon and since you bring it along anyway you might end up launching som guided ammo, who knows! **'''Lamedh:''' It's the cheap Flash Pulse bot, just as you know them from other factions. It generates cheap orders and can provide surprisingly effective AROs with the Flash Pulse. Also provides hacking coverage with the built in Repeater. *'''Yudbots:''' Take Yudbots to keep your Doctor or Engineer's safe and/or extend their influence. *'''Probots:''' Same ones that everyone gets. Baggage on all of them, one Minesweeper repeater with no weapons for cheap, one EVO hacker and one poor mans Zayin, a Total Reaction bot with a Combi Rifle and Repeater.
