    I like the ideal of hooking the Xenotech with a Remot

    I've been planning on using the black friar for this purpose but I haven't had the chance to yet.

    The Techbee is my go to, Irregular orders don't prevent syncing it and it's a specialist so you want it up the board anyways. Warcor is slightly less good at it since it isn't a specialist but 3-5 points for your Xenotech order seems good to me.

    @Teslarod you should check the ITS part of the forum. HellLois said that Xenotechs don't grant ARO anymore.

    You can't sync civilans with REMs.

    Auxilia actually sounds like a good idea.
    I was thinking humble Fusilier myself. Xenotech is far from the priority target, it's more of a nuisance if you lose it and you can always grab him with another unit. Auxilia or CSU sounds like the perfect candidate for escorting a civvie. Other idea would be Kamau (just because Mimetism makes him annoying to shoot down).

    Yes, I am. Where do you think the quoted rules text says otherwise?

    I'm looking at it from the point that they would be a Synchronized unit, I'm not sure how this works.

    What's the relevance of the Controller and the trooper with G:Synch being a Synchronized Unit?

    The restrictions on Synchronize Civilian are:
    The Controller:
    • Doesn't already control two Civilians,
    • Is not Impetuous etc.
    • Does not possess the G:Synch Skill,
    • Is not a REM,
    • Is not part of a Coordinated Order or Fireteam.

    Ok, then my group got this wrong, because I was told I could not Synchronize Civilian with my Auxilia

    Usually people are really bad with rules. Don't trust them. Read them for yourself. Twice.

    I find that most people don't actually read the rules. they rely on other to simply tell them the rules, and much like a game of telephone, it gets jumbled or confused somewhere along the way.

    You are right, but what do you do when you are over ruled?
