Soooo There is a Civilian Mercenary. Crappy stats, costs 0 pts and generates irregular order. What is hilarious is that (in contrary to Techbee) it's is not a "civilian" as far as the rules goes and it has no "civie" or "civilian" skill/tag/clasification (again as example Techbee has a profile with "Civie" Tag/rule). Is it theterfore legal to include "Civilian" Mercenrary in ITS list under the SoF extra ? Army VI says list is legal btw. (again in contrary to "Civie" Techbee).
No, because it's actual points cost is '-' not zero, and it's not a mercenary. This needs to be reported as a bug in Army.
Well my Army VI disagrees with you, the cost in an actual 0: Military Orders ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 1 1 CIVILIAN . (0 | 0) FUSILIER Lieutenant Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 10) 1 SWC | 10 Points Open in Infinity Army
Now look at the profiles PDF. Again, this is a bug in army, please report it in the appropriate forum.
Stop taking the piss. You're fully aware that Civilians aren't part of an army, and that this is a bug in Army.
Srsly I "felt" that something must be wrong, but actually I couldn't find a rule/reason why it is not allowed to be done. If you hadn't noticed I don't disagree on the ruling that Civilina cannot be taken, Now I'm poiting out that there's a friking mess with what is allowed and what not. Profiles PDF states "something" and Army VI states "something". How can I know that on "civilian" issue it is Profiles PDF which is right (not ARMY VI), and on "Kamau issue" neither of them is right (Profile PDF has "old" Kamau entry, and ARMY VI still has since more than half of the year error in old X-Visor LGL/ new Submachine Gun, HRL entry). So going back to 2nd point in this thread: how can I know which tool is "righter" in which situation ?
In this case, because I told you, and because it directly contradicts the rules. Have you reported it yet?
Here you go, https://forum.corvusbelli.com/threads/infinity-army-bugs.791/page-2#post-19457 Will also create a new dedicated thread for what in the end is top/most important infinity units profile reference source ^^
Official stance is that PDF > Army, the same way FAQ > HSN3 > N3 > Wiki It was already discussed a lot when the Druze Bayran came to be, since QK's Druze got several changes on the army and it was a mess (they lost all linkability in QK but remained Duo on generic, then recover some, then...).
From the wiki: A Civilian is a game element with a Troop Profile that does not belong to the Army List of any player. Therefore Civilians cannot be part of any Combat Group and don't provide Orders to an Order Reserve.
Problem was that that "civilian" was a "civilian" only in name not in rules, unless you want tot say that Lieutenant Rao must always be Lieutenant because it has this "keyword" in his name ;D
