Just a couple days ago I started playing proxy games with my friend, I'm fairly sure we're starting Yu Jing and Haqqislam respectively. We were getting a little burnt out on 40k and this game is just so loving tacticool out of control. I sort of am a really big fan of the ZUYONG~ heavy infantry models, is it viable to use those as a core to play the game from? I noticed they aren't resplendent in special rules and I'm wondering if that's going to be unviable? also: It seems like literally right now was the best time to get into the game.

Real quick rules question/scenario thing. There is a two story building (with a solid floor), with one model in the bottom floor and one model on the top floor. Both are Hackers. Both have Stealth. If the model on the top floor declares a move order (within the ZoC of the bottom), the bottom model does not get an ARO, correct? If the top model then shoots a weapon (light shotgun, for example) at a different target, would the bottom model then be able to make an ARO?

a7m2 posted:I love Ghost in the Shell and my friend wants me to play this with him so I picked the most GitS looking faction and I'm trying to build a list and was wondering if you guys could help. Proxies are amazing. I personally almost never play without a proxy mk5 and/or a proxy mk2. They're also super Ghost-In-The-Shell-y. Deva functionaries are also worth having, particularly the MSV2 Spitfire one for active turn murdering. Netrods are cool but do actually have downsides (scattering off the board, no way to defend themselves), so remember that. Even if you aren't super into steel phalanx, I'd recommend you have a myrmidon with smoke grenades somewhere near your list. Smoke is very good in this game and ALEPH have some of the most elite models with multispectral visors. Similarly, don't turn your nose up at some of the Greek heroes. Achilles/Ajax/Hector/Penisthelia to a lesser extent can all totally take over games by themselves, and I'd recommend trying them out. I would try to proxy the different ones in games before you commit to buying any of them though. It's very possible to play an entire list where every model has effectively two wounds, but watch out for guns with shock ammunition (SMGs, Multi Snipers, viral anything, etc). You have access to Nagas and Dasyus, which are both absolutely terrifying mid-field roadbumps/incredibly capable specialists. The sophotect is literally a top tier specialist and is also ridiculously survivable. Most units in Aleph are good, but you will probably be outnumbered all the time. I hope these random snippets help. Edit: definitely read how proxies work though, they have really weird rules that give them downsides that veteran players will be able to use against you (can't be part of coordinated orders, become useless when isolated, you can only ARO with one at a time) TwingeCrag fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Mar 25, 2018 |

Not anymore. JSA just broke into their own faction. Hopefully IA or white banner shows up soon though.

Also I want to point out that the rifle-toting Airborne get burst 4 assault pistols, which you should absolutely not forget about.

I used Hector for the first time in a game the other day. Plasma weapons are legitimately silly. They can also fire at +1 damage in the case that your target wasn't in cover. Plus unlike viral they still punish low armor models.

At first I was wishing for croc men but I realized I'd much rather have Dasyus/Nagas. The extra durability is way more cash money than slightly better suppressive fire.

As a newly minted ALEPH player, I had to go look up Andromeda to even see what she did. I feel like nomads, haqq and yu Jing got the worst end of this, oof

Once you learn camo well though, you'll be able to absolutely mind-game the absolute hell out of them.
