===Tactical Armoured Gear=== Nomads have quite a TAG selection, from light to heavy ones. *'''Gecko Squadron:''' Less of a TAG and more of an oversized HI, Geckos are small AMR5 lizards with medium range weapons and BS13. Both loadouts come with a Chain Colt and are also capable of taking a MK12 + Blitzen or Twin Combi Rifles + Panzerfaust. The latter loadout seems like a waste until you remember that TAG-sized weapons gain Fatality L1 in ITS rules making the TCRs DMG14 and Burst 4, effectively turning both guns into a short-ranged Spitfire. Geckos are the cheapest TAGs in the game and while they don't really have the oomph to duel with other TAGs, (unless they get lucky with their disposable weapons) they perform very well in a role similar to Taskmasters and Kriza Boracs while being more durable, with the added bonus of the Specialist Operative pilot being able to push buttons. On top of all this, two of them can form a Fireteam Duo in a vanilla Nomads list. Often underestimated, but treat the Geckos right and they will more than make up for their points investment! **The pilot has 2 Assault Pistols, Specialist Operative and WIP13, making him quite dangerous in short range and a decent specialist. *'''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 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 it's 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 a HMG. *'''Lizard Squad''' Lizard is a no-nonsense frontline TAG: BS14, ARM8, 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 ARM8 BS14 TAG with Hyper-Rapid Magnetic Cannon and Heavy Flamethrower for 2SWC and 90pts. 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 DMG16 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 Contender the Szalamandra Pilot can defend herself at medium range quite well. And because she's Tunguska, she's also a Killer Hacker. Nothing like Redruming the asshole who Expelled you. **Once had the dubious honour 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.
