[zetsthamys]

Hello everyone, I'm new

I plan to begin Infinity by choosing Aleph's Side.
With some friend we plan to try 150 points

Here is a list I made :
DAKINI Paramedic 0 15
PROXY Mk.2Hacker 0.5 21
PROXY Mk.3 2 26
DEVA Lieutenant 0 23 (27)
DEVABOT 0 4
DASYU FO 0 36
THORAKITESSmg 0 12
NETROD 0 4
NETROD 0 4
NETROD 0 4

10 units, 8 orders, 2,5 SWC

Do you have any Advice ?
It seems i will play against a Tohaa player, we are gonna play on little terrain (the one from Corvus Belli)


I made an Excell table with all Aleph unit's to help me build some list.
I thought it could also help other people here, but it seems .xslx are not allowed :s

Hi there

First important question: are you playing using ITS scenarios, or simple shoot'em up?

I'd go for something like this:

Aleph
──────────────────────────────────────────────────

Group 1 8 0 0
PROXY Mk.1 Engineer Combi Rifle, Nanopulser, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife. (14)
PROXY Mk.2 Hacker (Assault Hacking Device) Boarding Shotgun, Nanopulser / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 21)
DEVA (Multispectral Visor L2) Spitfire, Nanopulser / Pistol, Knife. (1 | 33)
DEVA Lieutenant (G: Synchronized) Combi Rifle, Nanopulser+Devabot / Pistol, Knife. (27)
DEVABOT Heavy Flamethrower / Electric Pulse. (4)
DAKINI Tacbot MULTI Sniper Rifle / Electric Pulse. (1.5 | 21)
DAKINI Tacbot Combi Rifle / Electric Pulse. (13)
DAKINI Tacbot Combi Rifle / Electric Pulse. (13)
NETROD Electric Pulse. (4)
NETROD Electric Pulse. (4)

3 SWC | 150 Points

Open with Army 5

If you're playing ITS exchange Combi Rifle Dakinis for two Thorakitai FOs. Otherwise it should work fine, if you manage to block or slow down your enemy with Dakini sniper and flank with Deva and Mk.II hacker. You can sacrifice Devabot if you think there's a good chance of taking down two or more important units with Symbiont armor, or if you think you can force enemy to dodge instead of shooting back.

Remember to go through Posthuman rules carefully, they're a bit complicated if you're a new player. Good luck!

Yes we are going to play ITS scenarios

Your list is interesting but i don't own Dakini's except one with HMG.
We are ok with proxies though (money )

Here is what I have for the moment :
Deva X2
Devabot X2
Sophotect
Proxy Mk1
Nesaie Alke
Asura Spitfire
Proxy Mk3
Dasyu Hacker
Proxy Mk2
Dakini HMG
Yudbot X2
NetrodX3

I have read a lot about Posthumans and their rule and I think I understand how it works.
But I agree that it seems really hard at first ^^
We are probably not gonna play before 1 or 2 months, I have big exams soon.


Your list seems interesting and maybe I will try it (but is an engineer still usefull if you take thorakitais ?)
Having order to use and being able to use it on a single model is quite disturbing and new for me ^^'
I have so much to learn And i'm glad about it !

Well, proxying in Infinity is accepted by all the groups I've heard about, at least for friendly games and beginner players.
Damn, we have a guy in our meta who played with non-Infinity proxies for over a year before he decided to invest some hard-earned money into the real stuff

Therefore, proxy away. Nothing wrong with it, and you can try any model and loadout out there and check whether he works for you or not!
