    New fluff book all about drug use among the Nomads? I'd buy it, then cut it with old Battletech TROs and sell it to double my money.

    Well, sure, but threatening someone else's life is likely to get your ass chucked out the nearest airlock until you freeze-dried, and hauled back in to be recycled for usable chemicals.

    Falls back to the old quote about how your right to swing your fist ends at the end of someone else's nose.

    Lower deck justice does tend to brutal and effective.

    Perhaps more importantly, what are Cybermines?

    More rules. Because that is better than mines(shock) or mines(E/M) or mines(Cyber)...

    I'm very interested by the red fury profile. He looks like a nice alternative to the prowler spitfire as a mid-range fighter in vanilla : better move, worst deployement, no-recamo, similar weapon (more efficient agains some like aleph, worst against others), cost less points and half SWC

    Not sure about the jammer profile in vanilla, seems a little costly for a non-specialist denial unit when we can have zero and moran

    The KHD profile is very good. Only 2 points bove the zero KHD, similar but with enough differences to make it an interesting choice : different mines, better BS but loosing the ability to recamo and worst deployment condition (except when you have an exclusion area)

    I expect cybermine to be something related to hacking. Maybe damaging hackable units only (hacker only would be useless) or acting as a one time repeater when exploding.

    All in all, I think the heckler will be seen in a lot vanilla list, improving even more the nomad mid-field game

    Looks like a great new unit I must say.

    If nothing else, means our camo markers are even more of a shell game in vanilla!

    Heckler is awesome, all loadouts look useful and interesting. I guess I will proxy starter one as KHD or Jammer.

    I thought the starter one is the Hacker? At least that's what was written under him on the starter dossier.

    The mini also has an Assault Pistol, wonder if that's a profile preview error like on the Druze

    That Cybermine could be used to mine the hacking area against enemy hackers. Maybe you can place it in the ZOC of you own / enemy repeaters and when triggered it fries the enemy Hackers' brains

    I thought it was red fury. Nevermind then.
    But locust is really dissapointing in comparison with him :)

    I`m fully satisfied with Heckler miniatures and profiles. Ultimate trolling unit for modest cost. Not dirt cheap but already in place and in camo.

    A lot cheaper than expecred. Just the possibility of a Jammer ARO will have a chilling effect on your opponent.

    + shell games with Zeroes in vanilla. Now each camo marker could be Killer Hacker, Assault Hacker, humble Mine or Jammer.

    Killer hacker killer. Interventors have a new best friend.

    The KH profile competes with the Interventor nicely I feel

    If you want more tactical flexibility then the Heckler, if you want complete infowar murder, Interventor.
