    sudo : "super user do". Linux command/command modifier
    pseudo- : resembling or imitating.

    On the other hand, X-Visor + Combi Rifle is just slightly less bad Combi Rifle. It is not even in the same bracket as MULTI Sniper Rifle.

    In Ariadna :
    [​IMG] CALEDONIAN MORMAER (X Visor) T2 Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 33)
    [​IMG] KAZAK DOKTOR Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 13)
    [​IMG] COLONEL VORONIN Rifle / Assault Pistol, AP CC Weapon. (0 | 21)

    Mormaer because they need something to be a real alternative to Vet Kazak instead of a poorer version
    Kazak doctor because he is too similar too the 112 and need more differences
    Voronin, enough said

    In Aleph :
    [​IMG] ANDROMEDA Submachine Gun, Nanopulser, Flash Pulse / Breaker Pistol, DA CC Weapon, Knife. (0 | 28)
    [​IMG] ASURA Spitfire, Nanopulser / Pistol, AP CCW. (2 | 70)
    [​IMG] THAMYRIS Hacker (Hacking Device) Pitcher, Nanopulser / Assault Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 24)

    Andromeda, same as Voronin, no explaination needed
    Asura, because MSV3 is not worth what it cost
    Thamyris, because right now he never see any time on the table (because Danava)

    I play him occasionally in vanilla. But he's primarily for Steel Phalanx anyway, where there is no competition.

    Eh... it's not quite as good as a Sniper, at all. Active turn you're looking at 50% chance to defeat a TR HMG through smoke versus a MSnipe's 70%, reactive turn it's much worse and even further if the Bao is in a fireteam.
    Going back to your other point about optimization, if I were to make actual changes I'd stick a Assault Hacker on the BioV+BSG profile and an Killer Hacker on the MSV+BSG profile.
    Why not both? People seem to dislike Veteran skill, but it makes perfect sense to Bao. No, scratch that. Religious makes more sense. They make Muttas seem like reasonable and grounded individuals and make the Pan-O knights seem like atheists compared to a Bao's devotion to the Emperor.
    However, if you had Bravery in mind, I'd like to remind you that if you want to make their link options relevant, the Pheasant is still Light Infantry.

    This is used in as a "pseudo" or "limited" meaning, "I'm not root but I want to act as if I was one for this particular command".

    Basically equivalent to Window$ "Run As" command. Because wise people do not give the account they use every day root access, regardless of OS.

    But we were talking about the Bao pseudo-sniper with MSV2, BSG and Contender.

    Yes "sudo" is a pun. Iterating the pun again (ie using sudo for pseudo) doesn't work as humour.

    Windows privileges are a pain, cause there's levels beyond "root" that you can't access as a human...

    Iciu is referring to MSV2+X-Visor+Combi. The BSG+Visor+Contender was removed by CB with HSN3 :(

    You cannot also (afaik) elevate yourself to admin from within command prompt (which sometimes is PITA) ;(

    There is plenty of MI that able to link with other types of troops now anyways. It's not like its impossible to keep cohension with part of fireteam being deployed 4inches further away.

    Bao are fine, IMO. The Sniper is especially very reasonable and the most commonly seen profile anyway.

    nomads
    resclupt lizard
    resclupt szalamandra pilot
    resculpt the support pack
    everyone
    make spec ops and dire foes characters able to join any core link team we are talking about elite soldiers
    make all old preorder models available yes you do have alternative sclupts for some, but by not providing the models you punish new people more than reward the people who came into the game early on

    Did you read what was written? It's not as good at extreme rangebands compared to the sniper is what's been said.

    Also it's 4 points more expensive than it should be given the equipment it's got.

    How much should it cost to be fair? If they dropped LSG would they need to find 4 points somewhere else to keep it priced high enough?

    True based on balance or true based on how you could game their point system to minmax a troop?

    More along the lines of correct point costs.

    Then again you have to make them MI, 4-2, and ARM 2 to get these changes (aka me reading the post wrong to begin with :P).
