===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. *'''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. These can take a red fury too, which is a nice little gun fighter that starts up the table. Only 1SWC too. *'''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 and Mimetism (-6).
