Can AI Beacons declare the ARO Electric Pulse? AI BEACON AUTOMATIC EQUIPMENT Deployable, Non-Lootable, Obligatory REQUIREMENTS The bearer of the AI Beacon must belong to a Combat Group, which cannot exceed the total amount of members, including the bearer of the AI Beacon. EFFECTS [...] The bearer of the AI Beacon is considered a piece of Deployable Equipment, and not a trooper. It cannot be activated by Orders or AROs. [...]
Ok, then it's just a typo/missclick/whatever that Electric Pulse snuck back into the Netrod troop profile. Thank you very much. :-)
Where are you seeing that? I’m not seeing it for new lists in Army (mobile), but it’s possible that the data for old lists might be bringing up the old Netrod profile.
Now this might be an accident but hear me out. What if SP got special heroic netrods steeped with martial prowess to inspire all the more common netrods to greater deeds?
Well maybe Aleph hoped beacons will eventually learn to use it. You know, just how the Discworld wizards teach students - put a bunch of kids next to a bunch of books, and hope the contents of latter will somehow move to former.
But maybe the AI Beacons are more like the Librarian; they know exactly what it is to be a trooper but are really opposed to returning to such a state of being.
