	*'''Posthumans, PROXY Mk.2:''' One of the most common Proxies taken especially the Assault Hacker. She benefits from the same great stats and price, but gains TO Camouflage and Infiltration. Essentially, the Mk2 is the ONLY TO Infiltrator that still generates an order even when she's in Hidden Deployment (assuming the other proxies are not dead).		*'''Posthumans, PROXY Mk.2:''' One of the most common Proxies taken especially the Assault Hacker.

	*'''Dart, Optimate Huntress:'''		*'''Dart, Optimate Huntress:''' Dart comes with a laundry list of special rules, but don't be fooled - she's a streamlined aggression piece whose entire kit is geared towards doing one thing extremely well: Demolishing your opponent's defensive net of camo tokens and mines. The combination of Forward Deployment L2, Camo, and Climbing Plus allows her to slip around the midfield, while a close range armament and MSV1 lets her rip camouflaged troops apart in short order - while if that camo marker turns out to be a mine, she can reliably tank at least one hit with Bioimmunity and V:NWI.

			** Jumper L:Z is less exciting when you can only boost a single remote. If you like the idea of a buffed remote (like a Rudras) then consider adding her in for the stat boost, extra order, and deployment zone protection... otherwise don't bother.
			** KHD: if you have a repeater net set up she's a cheap addition to your hacking options. But with her short range guns, lack of marker states, and lack of forward deployment, she falls down on the 'shiny' scale.

Army List Building

Line 159:		Line 159:
	ALEPH is a very elite army. Even their basic troopers have a skill or equipment making them harder to deal with. A very elite army will often be outnumbered. If an Ariadna commander looses 5 troopers there could still be a full combat group and a half worth of troopers to deal with. If ALEPH loses 5 troopers, that could be a little over a third of the army. Even though ALEPH's soldiers are well equipped and well trained, a higher level of strategy will be required to play this army. Model count-wise, a 300pt army shouldn't play with less than 10 regular orders to start; ALEPH does well with about 13-14 orders.		ALEPH is a very elite army.

	The Lieutenants of ALEPH are somewhat obvious. Asuras, Devas, and the Marut are the most common. Devas are the easiest to hide, but even then they cost significantly more than basic troopers of other factions. If Loss of Lieutenant scares you, there is a Myrmidon Officer with Chain of Command you can take. However, it's best to just to learn to play with this issue in mind and apply it to your strategy. Discourage your opponent from taking the risk of Lieutenant hunting OR let them waste all their orders trying kill the LT. Majority of ALEPH's troopers are tough soldiers: With enough strategy and planning, they can handle Loss of Lieutenant and still get stuff done. If this is not your playstyle or you're not confident yet, get the aforementioned Myrmidon Officer.		The Lieutenants of ALEPH are somewhat obvious. Asuras, Devas, and the Marut are the most common.

The Myrmidon Officer is still more useful, but the Shukra can be helpful if you often face impersonators.

	*'''Danavas:''' A more dedicated hacking LI platform, they're frail sporting a wound and some light armour. They come with a combi-rifle + pitcher and a breaker pistol in case things get too close. However, the Danavas hacking gear is the thing you choose them for - your choice is between an AHD with Icebreaker upgrade or HD+ with Maestro upgrade. At 25 pts and 0.5 SWC at their most expensive, these girls are a haxor budget bargain compared to other hacker options in the army.		*'''Danavas:''' A more dedicated hacking LI platform, they're frail sporting a wound and some light armour.

	*'''Warcor:''' Cheap and Irregular 3pt WIP13 Flash Pulse dude. Take them if you got a few points left over. Don't underestimate how useful they are as an ARO piece. Though for 3pts a Yudbot for your Sophotect could be just as useful.		*'''Warcor:''' Cheap and Irregular 3pt WIP13 Flash Pulse dude. Take them if you got a few points left over.

	*'''Knauf, Outlaw Sniper:''' Knauf is the first miniature to come out of "Outrage", Infinity's own first manga. Knauf is an excellent Marksman with at BS13 and an above average CC19. The rest of his stats are unfairly unremarkable. However, his list of skills and equipment include Mimetism, MSV1, Stealth, and Marksmanship L1 - and he wields a Multi Sniper Rifle making him a hard to hit sniper with a very versatile range of Ammo options. In Aleph, you might have some trouble fitting him in because of the already pricey costs of her troopers, but also because Aleph already have a great range of snipers. Knauf stands out for his combination of Marksmanship L1 and the MSR which applies Shock damage to every shot - super deadly against 1W Infantry. Don't forget that MSRs also have Stun ammunition, which will force 2 BTS rolls for Stun and <s>1 ARM roll for Shock.</s> ''(MM lvl 1 doesn't work on stun amo as they are non-lethal)''		*'''Knauf, Outlaw Sniper:''' Knauf is the first miniature to come out of "Outrage", Infinity's own first manga.

	*'''Posthumans, PROXY Mk.5:''' The PROXY Mk5 is incredible like all of the other Posthuman Proxies. BS13 and WIP15 is a standard on all of them, but the Proxy Mk5 Forward Observer is just DIRT cheap at only 10pts. Unlike most MIs, the Proxy Mk5 has a 4-4MOV, but also Forward Deployment L1, V:NWI, ARM/BTS3. For '''10 points''', - the cost of a Fusilier or Alguaciles - the Proxy Mk5 is a WIP15 Forward Observer/Specialist with dual SMGs, E/M Grenades, and Nanopulser. It's just not fair....for your opponents that is.		*'''Posthumans, PROXY Mk.5:''' The PROXY Mk5 is incredible like all of the other Posthuman Proxies.

			*'''Yadu Troopers, Tactical Assault Teams:''' Yadu are a very complete toolbox unit. V:NWI + Shock Immunity and ARM3/BTS3 make them pretty resilient. Even though they're MI, they have 4-4MOV. The drawback is that they're on the slightly expensive side.

			*'''Arjuna Unit:'''

	*'''Armand "Le Muet", Freelance Killer:''' Very solid trooper with a great set of weapons and skills. Both loudouts are great...Except Armand is VERY expensive in an already expensive/elite army. Minelayer is great, except Nagas do it for less. MSV1 is good, except Agema MSR/Agema Characters do it for less. Granted Armand is an ODD Sniper, but that hefty price tag really hurts in an army like Aleph.		*'''Armand "Le Muet", Freelance Killer:''' Very solid trooper with a great set of weapons and skills.

	*'''Deva Functionaries:''' Devas are a mid to high cost Light Infantry. She is tough with V:NWI. Devas have very nice selection of options and tools. The WIP15 and BTS3 is very good for the rather expensive Hacker. There is a MSV2 with Spitfire - the only MSV2 Spitfire option in ALEPH. The Sensor Deva is a very interesting choice and for only 24pts. Then finally the Deva + Devabot brings an extra body with HFT to the fray making them a dangerous duo. Devas make for a great WIP15 Lieutenant option as well. Stay away from Viral and Shock.		*'''Deva Functionaries:''' Devas are a mid to high cost Light Infantry. She is tough with V:NWI.

At WIP15 she can get any job done. BS13 with Mimetism makes her very accurate in firefights, and if she takes an impact ARM2 and V:NWI keeps her up and fighting.
