Thanks! TanKoL

Looks good and has lots of models! Do you think the Hexa is better than the Nisse w/ sniper rifle?

With the cutter being so cost heavy it really digs into the rest of the army.
This list will give me some things to work with.

It really isn't that simple, they fulfill totally different roles.

The Nisse is an area denial piece. You can't hide it or its loadout, so the enemy will know full well that that it's covering large areas of the board. Its mimetism makes its harder for most enemy models to engage from any range, and its MSV2 prevents them using things like ODD to make things too tricky for the Nisse. To sum up, the Nisse is there to force inefficiency on your opponent by making them burn lots of orders either taking it out, or taking longer paths (or using caution move) to get where they want to go.

The Nisse, in a good position, could win you the game without firing a single shot.

By contrast, the Hexa is a killer. TO means that your opponent won't know where it is (and shouldn't know it even exists), so you can wait until your opponent's plan is in full swing before revealing and catching people in compromised positions. If you work to a 'one shot one kill' maxim then you can recamo where needed, move to a new spot and gain surprise shot bonuses over and over again until you've gutted the core of your opponent's force (ideal world).

The Hexa comes with the downside of having its own issues with enemy TO and ODD, and not contributing an order to your pool until revealed.

I decided to change up the list and came up with this. I wish I had the points for more FO. Any suggestions or recommendations?

I'm not sure you need two Nisse snipers. Change one to an HMG (exactly the same points and SWC) for more active turn burst happiness (and only a slightly reduced ARO when mitigated by the ability to suppressive fire).

Wow! Nice catch! I cant believe I missed that. That gets my points for SWC to 6 and gives me more bang bang for my Buck Buck.

Thanks.

I don't know where you get your SWC from mate, but it's wrong
Nisse are 1.5 with HMG or with MSR, while the Cutter is 2.5 (or 3 if a LT)

Thanks, I will edit top post and fix. Should still come out to 6 SWC. For speed sake I just cut and pasted and went off of memory.

What do you think of the updated list?

Anything you would take in place of the father knight? I do really like the FK though

FK's fine, the Machinist could really use a palbot to follow the Cutter
Also, apart from the FK, you don't have any decent specialist
I count Auxilia FOs as decent specialist due to the order efficiency they present with the HFT on the Auxbot that likes getting closer anyway. They're also really good at covering the middle area of the table in CQC

I do like your list TanKol, I will need to buy some Auxilia. maybe I can change it up like this.
creates 10 reg orders and SWC 5

AUXILIA (Forward Observer) Combi Rifle + AUXBOT_1 / Pistol, Knife. (15)
-AUXBOT_1 Heavy Flamethrower / Electric Pulse. (4)
AUXILIA (Forward Observer) Combi Rifle + AUXBOT_1 / Pistol, Knife. (15)

MACHINIST Combi Rifle, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife. (15)
-PALBOT Electric Pulse. (3)
FATHER-KNIGHT Hacker (Assault Hacking Device) Combi Rifle, D-Charges / Breaker Pistol, DA CCW. (0.5 | 50)
CUTTER Lieutenant MULTI HMG / . (3 | 115)
FUSILIER Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (10)
FUSILIER Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (10)
FUGAZI DRONBOT Flash Pulse, Sniffer/EP (8)
NISSE MULTI HMG/Pistol,Knife (1.5 / 34)
BAGH-MARI Boarding Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (17)

Having 2 Nisse is not worth not having the two Auxilia. I think this list flows better than my last and has good specialist powers.
Thanks for your help T. Dakka Dakka gets a lot of infinity posts than other gaming sites.




This list gave up a FO for HMG. Can't figure out the one point extra to get double FO.

I love the cutter model and looking forward to using in place for Toni since the model doesn't exist.

This list is alternate to my cutter list and used Toni so I can have the mine layer in my army.
