My friends have recently gotten into infinity and we are struggling with fireteams. I have the stickied post on fireteams but I'm still confused. Can any unit in a sectorial be in a fireteam or is it limited to the special fireteams list for that specific sectorial? Additionally, can a vanilla faction use any kind of fire team and if so what are the circumstances in which they can do so?
Currently in N4 there are no Fireteams in Vanilla at all. What Fireteams are allowed is denoted by the Sectorial charts found here https://assets.infinitythegame.net/downloads/secotrialsn4/all/v1.0/secotrialsn4.zip
So the models in those lists that have the - under the fireteam column can't be included in a fireteam for that sectorial?
Correct, and even when they have the Fireteams listed all members of the Fireteam must be from the same Troop unless otherwise listed on the Special Fireteams chart for the Sectorial. For example, in Svalarheima Fusiliers can form a Core Fireteam, and can be joined by up to two ORCs, up to one Infirmarer, and any Wildcards.
Side note vanilla will never have fireteams. The advantage to vanilla is you get every model in the faction but lose the fireteam advantages. Fireteams in vanilla would be soo dumb and just lead to crazy min maxing no fun.
Towho? Oh those guys in spiral corps. Yeah tohaa have their triads...which is why if they ever come back for reals they won't get a sectorial. Vanilla nomads and ariadna are pretty scary without teams to be fair. Camo and a tool box for days. I don't like vanilla as an option so I don't look at a fraction that way...so yujing may be reaching the great vanilla option too.
