	*'''Iguana Squadron:''' 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 pilot is no specialist but wields a HMG and has two wounds		*'''Iguana Squadron:''' Iguana’s claim to fame is the Ejection system and the 2 wound HI Operator.

			**The fact you’re paying premium for just an HMG combined with a bunch or armor and a repeater makes it a weird unit- to make use of the repeater you’d want to get up close, while the HMG is not for close range- that is compromised by the Heavy Flamethrower and suppressive fire. Coordinated strikes with a hacker and you got yourself a good way to fork AROs here.

Why Play FACTION?

	The Foreign Company is responsible for the protection of some of the most precious assets of mayor Maya channels. They also have quite a few Aristeia! fighters among them, and they do use it to get paid twice for what they do- once as a mercenary company, and then as stars of their own macabre reality show. That sounds pretty nuts, but they consist mostly of PanO and TJC soldiers with some celebreties, it doesn't get more profit-oriented than that! To keep the cashflow as lucrative and steady as possible they got to keep a good reputation though, so they totally never do any dirty work...

	They‘re a mix of TJC and PanO units, with a high amount of mercenary characters.

	*'''Securitates:''' ForCo‘s Linetroopers hired fresh from Tunguska, and they are expensive at 13 pts on the cheapest profile. You get what you pay for, since they've got BS12 and WIP14, which makes them quite versatile. They've got Fireteam: Core and can bring Corporate Security Units, which bring their own unique thing to the link. Also they've got Veteran! It's one of the skills you never want to be relevant and probably don't want to pay for, BUT whenever it gets relevant it's such a great thing to have. Having a few regular orders when losing your LT early can make the difference between losing and winning a game, or at least between a minor and a major victory. Typical for this kind of units they've got quite a few profiles. Your linkfiller is the plain Combi Rifle, also comes as LT. CSU's got cheaper filler options for your link, but the basic profile is still a good choice for LT disguise. For two points more you can make them Paramedic, or pay 16 pts for a built in repeater (which also come with BSG option instead of the Combi for the same cost). You also get a very nice Hacker profile which profits even more from being immune to Isolated, and some SWC weapons that probably do more for you on the other units in the roster.

	*'''Corporate Security Unit:''' CSU have Metachemistry, which can be very good if the RNG-gods favor you. They also get sixth sense which doesn’t really matter all too much since they‘ve got a unique thing going an in ForCo: they can be included into a Securitates-link. And since their cheapest profile comes at 11pts and the specialist trait it’s very attractive, even if it’s just to shave off a few points of your core link.		*'''Corporate Security Unit:''' CSU have Metachemistry, which can be very good if the RNG-gods favor you.

NWI and Bioimmunity allow her to risk taking a hit, but neither her BS nor her PH really beg for any risky moves with her. MOV 6-2 make her more order efficient in what she's supposed to do.

Biometric Visor, Discover (+3), Dodge (+3), Immunity (Shock), NWI and either Chain of Command or LT with Strategos L1. And there's the option to have Strategic Deployment on the CoC-profile aswell (the LT always has it). All this is nice, but you're paying a premium for a profile like this. He doesn't have any fancy weapon options but the boss isn't supposed to be the brute of the crew anyways. He clearly can be worth it, but don't take him if you're just after CoC, there's a way more attractive option.

	*'''Laxmee, Hacker of Fortune:''' A linkable hacker with WIP 14 and BTS 6, minelayer dropping cybermines, MIM (-3), a pitcher and an SMG and a HD+ (UPGRADE: Fairy Dust). All that for 24pts and you can link her with Kaplans and Orcs.
