Using a Cybermask Marker as a Repeater

http://infinitythewiki.com/en/Repeater

Repeater + Impersonation or Camouflage and Hiding
Troopers or pieces of Equipment that have Repeater in addition to any Special Skills that allows them to act as Markers instead of figures (Camouflage and Hiding, Impersonation...) reveal themselves automatically if a friendly Hacker attempts to use their Repeater ability.

Hackers cannot use a repeater carried by an enemy trooper in a Marker state.

 

Interesting question. Would this be Bit&Kiss and Scylla/Bots only? Or is there another edge case I'm forgetting?

 

I think this rule comes from when all hackers were also repeaters

 

Nooooooope.

 

No. No hackers are repeaters anymore.

 

It's even mentioned as the very first thing in the Hacking section of the edition change summary: http://wiki.infinitythegame.com/en/Summary_of_Edition_Changes#ADVANCED_COMBAT:_HACKING

 

It would be worth posting this in solved question as it's a question that come back again and again

 

@Arkhos94 can you PM me it, I'll put it in the Hacking FAQ. I'll restart work on it once the new book drops. I was waiting for the big FAQ... but it's increasingly looking like that's a pipe dream.

 

Securitate were the last bastion. I'd have liked to see them keep it, but oh well.
