Breaking news for Tunguskan units in Episode 23 of White Noise Podcast, quote from Bostria; "Hollowmen are 6-2 Mov, and Hecklers are Infiltrating skirmishers". Though Bostria does say that he doesn't remember exactly, so take this with a pinch of salt.
so, hollowmen are definitely "not human" maybe the rem we requested, maybe some EI reverse engineered tech? hecklers as infiltrating skirmisher....tunguska already has Spektre, so i think something like an upgraded zero? or maybe something like a moran...
Nah, my money is non-marker Prowlers. Somewhere between Morans and Prowlers. Which is what we've already been thinking is a possibility.
Give the Heckler a repeater, and Madtraps, with it's mid range weapons the Heckler will live up to it's name. I highly doubt it'll have a Jammer, but some kind of negative to be hit like nanoscreen or Mimetism will go a long way.
It probably won't be, but it sure would mess with the enemy in a new way for Nomads. ^This would be great
I hope it's a unit with options. Madtraps for one, Jammer for another, Repeater (and maybe also Minelayer Deployable Repeaters) for a third. I REALLY hope the Heckler lives up to that name in LOTS of different ways.
TBH I'd be OK with that in a faction that can screen them with a mix of Minelayers and Koalas. Particularly if they have Phys ~12 and SSL2 to make Spec Fire / DTWs inefficient ways to remove them.
And since it's a Red Fury which is totally different from a Spitfire it will cost 1 SWC instead of 2. Although tbf a long of the power of the Prowler Spitfire comes from not knowing there's a big weapon there.
Won't really change anything. Leaving MSV out on ARO vs Nomads is asking for it to be removed. It would fit though.
I feel like there's a difference between leaving stuff out to ARO things across the board, and leaving stuff out to ARO things sneaking past the centre line, protecting you from AD troops, warbands sprinting across the board and fragging your guys etc. Absolutely Albedo is less useful in a Sectoral with Interventors, but I still think it's pretty great. You can go hunting with your Red Fury Heckler right away, targeting their MSV troops, and double team them with a Spektr to deal with other targets. Pretty good!
Albedo would be really good but just not as significant as like Corregidor getting it who doesn't get HD+.
Well, spitfire can cost 1 SWC too (aragoto, muyib). It depends on platform, as it is with many other SWC weapons.
