This brings you in with a hefty 11 regular orders and two Impetuous troops. Straight away you can see there is a lot more to this list than the others. If you have the N3 book (and if you don’t why not??) you will have probably seen the missions near the back. These rely on ‘Specialists’ to achieve certain things to win the game as opposed to a straight deathmatch. It does give you more things to think about but this is where Infinity really comes into its own in my opinion. For a start you have to think about combat groups with this list. You have more than 10 troops so you need to decide how to split things. You could put the Interventor Lt in with the Morlock as he effectively has two orders and is he doesn’t need them he can give one to the Morlocks. Or split the Morlocks into both Combat groups with Regular Orders each. This is not a mission specific list rather than a ‘toolbox’ list. It covers all the Classifieds and also has forward deploying and hidden Specialists for objective grabbing. Again you could swap out the Deployable Repeater Zero for a Minelayer for more board control. There is long range firepower in there with the Intruder and Grenzer who handily both cover off MSV options. The aforementioned Morlocks to run interference with Impetuous Chain Rifles and a couple of bots who can help out in multiple ways.
Well there you have it. I hope that hs given a few ideas but this barely scratches the surface of the myriad of options open to you. Happy hunting!
Before I even have time to read this, I just want to say “yay, thanks for doing Nomads!”
Thanks for this
Interventors do not have a Boarding Shotgun option as Lt. according to the PDF. Did I miss an option somewhere?
Your right the boarding shotgun isn’t a LT option but it’s a 1 point difference between the boarding shotgun and combi rifle and no one says you have to run WYSIWYG with the models.
