    Friday my opponent tried Yuan Yuan jumping against my nomad (including an interventor who could try to hack his transport) so we weren't sure of the ARO order. We did it that way :

    Step 1 : Yuan declare where he want to jump and place the mini
    Step 2 : Hacking ARO (hack the transport) only
    Step 3 : Roll for hacking ARO vs Jump roll, dispersion if necessary
    Step 4 : other ARO based on the Yuan final position only

    Did we do it correctly ?

    Yes, that's consistent with the rules. First model placement is desired location only, after the PH-3 roll and potential dispersion you get the actual position of the trooper.

    Also remember - in case of Yuan owner should roll booty as soon as he place miniature on the table.

    After you've found out the final landing location. The initial placement of the miniature is just nominating a target landing spot, the trooper hasn't deployed yet.

    i cant agreed with it, @ijw
    in some cases the booty result & loadout of the trooper could affect the ARO the opponent's hackers want declare.
    rules say just:
    • When you place a model — but not a Marker — on the battlefield, you are required to share all Open Information relative to that trooper.
    i place the miniature in a landing zone.
    & of course if i get ARM on a booty it could help me survive declared ARO's, but it works in your case too.

    The trooper hasn't deployed on the table until the PH Roll has been made, and Booty Rolls for AD troopers are made on deployment.

    Otherwise you'd get reactive troopers having to declare their AROs based on the nominated spot, then losing those AROs if the trooper dispersed somewhere else.

    i say again - you NOT right i think.
    • Immediately after placing each of your troopers with Booty Level 1 on the table for deployment, you may roll on the Booty L1 Chart once to determine that trooper's extra loot.
    it not say "deployed". it say - place for deployment.
    & you last comment have NO effect with that I say. ARO declaration secuence not changed. but booty rolled when you place miniature.
    TY, happy New Year.

    I think we're talking at cross-purposes. Until the PH Roll is resolved, the trooper hasn't been placed on the table for deployment - all you've done is nominate the point where you want to deploy.

    Also,
    No, it can't. Any Hacker that has Hack Transport Aircraft has a choice of that ARO or no ARO at all. Which means that it's irrelevant when you roll for Booty anyway...

    okay. lets just suppose:
    i have a hacker in a marker state (spec-ops hacker in camo or holoechoed)
    the Yuan nominate landing near my lieutenant Hi.
    i not want reveal hacker. but if Yuan get E/M CCW or E/M grenades - it is a different case for sure...
    also i give a rules wordings to you, it clearly state - "place a model for deployment", not the "deploy"
    i not understand why you still not see the difference.

    For what it's worth, it doesn't say "place a model for deployment". :(

    When are Booty and MetaChemistry rolled for?

    After the player’s Deployment Phase.
    For AD troops and similar skills, the roll will take place after landing, as specified in the rules of these skills: After their Deployment.
