Today I played my first n4 tournament. If it's useful for somebody, I realized that there was a lot more of ip and tags due the point drop. So, for me neema with spitfire was not very useful. If this is going to be the usual, I think Draal with ap marksman will be my choice... Sadly... Can I start to cry to get a ap spitfire for neema? Also, crÃtic changes made me imposible to beat a jotum with my always 'tag killers' surdadogs... So... Not a very good day for my spiral troops. Enviado desde mi CPH1907 mediante Tapatalk
Things to consider against TAG : - Smoke still works in the great % of cases against them; - We got a functional TAG now with a DAM 15 AP Spitfire; - Impersonator can take TAG out of cover with AP ammo; I think SC has potential in new edition,but we could need time to adapt to the new meta.
knowing how to handle HI and TAG is quite essential in n4 ^^ I think we can have many em munitions available and now that every em is n3 em/2 it can be quite scary. Kiutaan(best one), Kaurii sentinel... chaksa longarms doesn't look so great but they bring autocanon Burst 3 in ft haris ^^ Due to bagage changes we can think more closely to panzerfaust as a solution (hide a chaksa bagage near neema/kuel saan or a kosuil for instance and you might every two orders fire burst 2 PF which can solve some tag problems when they are in tri cor) And in back up we have many breaker ammu or ap
I played a tournament on the weekend and went up against a TAG that I had to deliver 11 wounds on before I finally dropped it properly (Doctor Worm is a pain!). Methods I used included: AP Marksman Draal MSV2 Viral Sniper Igao in close combat HMG on Anaconda I also had a K1 Combi which didn't get used in this game but is a great option in the right circumstances. In addition we have a number of tools to help slow down a TAG trying to go rambo in our dz. In particular, e/m mines from the Kaauri and the +1 damage heavy flamethrowers on the Chaksa Auxiliars.
While this is true in a direct comparison (assuming good range bands), the HMG is nice to have in a faction without other long range gunfighting options and importantly we have other great options for dealing with a Tag. E.g. a Draal in a triad would do much better against a Tag than the AP Spitfire Anaconda.
