	*'''Taskmasters, Bakunin SWAST Teams:''' Overall, the biggest surprise of the Bakunin list. [[Orks\|Dead 'ard, killey, and armed to da TEEF!]] They come with Free Agent, Fireteam: Duo, CC19, Martial Arts 1, ARM 5 and BTS 6. In terms of guns, they all get a heavy pistol and a DA CCW. In terms of loadouts, the HMG is arguably the weakest (which is saying a lot), but it's still takeable; if you really want long-range D15 power, consider the HRL guy as he also comes with a Light Shotgun, a Pulzar and a pair of CrazyKoalas. Every other config has at least 3 BS weapons including CrazyKoalas. They will kick pretty much everything's ass right up until they have to face a TAG.		*'''Taskmasters, Bakunin SWAST Teams:''' Overall, the biggest surprise of the Bakunin list.

	*'''~~The Hollow Men~~, Tactical ~~Assault Team~~:''' Faster than Riot Grrls, though not as good at Dodging or punching, the Hollow Men pack rather standard HI armaments, wth a few Chain-Colts for good measure. A creepy robot jumping up and down to no-scope with a Missile Launcher is a hilarious prospect, but I predict you'll rather include some heftier units, like Brigada or one of the S5 HI instead. Though fast movement + Super-Jump means a Multi Rifle can be scary in their hands, overcoming its short range.		*'''Evaders, EVA Tactical Group:'''

	*'''Kriza Borac:''' The ~~new~~ Tunguska beatstick, Kriza Borac is a mini-Szalamandra. ARM5, BS13 and Full Auto L2 means he wants to get in and obliterate anything that's in its path with high Burst firepower. What's more, with the 360 visor on the Mk12 profile he becomes an absolute nightmare to deal with once in Suppressive Fire. Taskmasters give you more variety for less, but if you want your heavy to just shoot very well, Kriza is your man.		*'''Kriza Borac:''' The Tunguska beatstick, Kriza Borac is a mini-Szalamandra.

	*'''Mobile Brigada:''' The basic Heavy Infantry option. Courage is an important perk, since Heavy Infantry are likely to roll Guts a lot. Can take both long and medium range weaponry and the basic MULTI Rifle option also has the ever present Light Flamethrower. What really sets Brigada apart is the Hacker profile: who doesn’t like an HI that can Fairy Dust itself? In short, Mobile Brigada is what PanOceanian ORC Troops will always want to be.		*'''Mobile Brigada:''' The basic Heavy Infantry option.

	'''Hacking area: entire table:''' Nomad hacking capabilities are one of the reasons Ariadna became popular. Nomads have access to HD+ on WIP 14 and 15 profiles for low points and an absurd number of repeaters. Basically if it's hackable, Nomads will find it. While KHD units could use this to get at Nomad hackers, they ~~mind~~ find themselves in a situation not unlike trying to outshoot PanOceania.

	'''Courage and Religious Troop:''' Courage being a signature of Corregidor and Religious Troop of Bakunin Reverend Agents.

	**'''Zoe & Pi-Well:''' For more than twice the cost of a Clockmaker you can get Zoe and Pi-Well, and all things considered, it's a sweet deal! Zoe's an Engie and a Hacker with an HD and the Stop! upgrade program. On top of that, she comes with her own Repeater drone (Pi-Well) that can fit anywhere she can, has ODD, Forward Observer, Sat-lock and Sensor. Take if you can spare the points and give her Zondbots to maximize her effects.		**'''Zoe & Pi-Well:''' For more than twice the cost of a Clockmaker you can get Zoe and Pi-Well, and all things considered, it's a sweet deal!

	*'''Daktari, Campaign Doctors:''' ~~A non-linkable~~ Alguacil with Doctor skill. WIP 13 is decent, 14 pts is not much. Is also an African, foul-mouthed catgirl if you buy her solo. Get her a Zondbot and keep close to backline infantry.		*'''Daktari, Campaign Doctors:''' An Alguacil with Doctor skill. WIP 13 is decent, 14 pts is not much.

			It is also a wildcard in Corregidor as of 2019, so it's quite usable as a specialist in alguacili or mobile brigada teams.

	*'''Hecklers:''' Almost Skirmisher, Heckler seems like he half-assed Camo and Infiltrationb training - unlike Zero, who is all ass! Dohohohoho... Ahem. Heckler brings in unique tools previously only available to [[Infinity/N3 Tactics/Haqqislam\|FUCKING GHAZI]]: Jammer and E/Marat, as well as all new Cybermines. The only Mines allowed by Concillium Convention are predictably useless, but as faff on otherwise useful WIP 13 KHD could be worse. The other two trinkets offer non-hacking solutions to Heavy Infantry or TAG problems, but seeing as you already have hackers, Jammer Heckler also carries a FastPanda. Not as great as Zeros or Spektrs, but they may find their niche as backup for them or Interventors.		*'''Hecklers:''' Almost Skirmisher, Heckler seems like he half-assed Camo and Infiltrationb training - unlike Zero, who is all ass!

	*'''Riot Grrls:''' The bane of shitlords everywhere, the Grrls are a cheap Frenzy HI unit with Hyper-Dynamics and basic HI weapon loadouts. Can be a deadly killer or die easily depending on rolls. Usually better in Bakunin than anywhere else.		*'''Riot Grrls:''' The bane of shitlords everywhere, the Grrls are a cheap Frenzy HI unit with Hyper-Dynamics and basic HI weapon loadouts.

	*'''Gecko Squadron:''' Less of a TAG and more of an oversized HI, Geckos are small AMR5 lizards with medium range weapons. 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 ~~pointless~~ until you remember that TAG-sized weapons gain Fatality L1 in ITS rules making the TCRs ~~DMG 14~~ 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!		*'''Gecko Squadron:''' Less of a TAG and more of an oversized HI, Geckos are small AMR5 lizards with medium range weapons and BS13.

	*'''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.		*'''Iguana Squadron:''' Larger than Gecko, but still a light TAG.

	*'''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.		*'''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.

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.		**With Contender the Szalamandra Pilot can defend herself at medium range quite well. And because she's Tunguska, she's also a Killer Hacker.
