Heres an idea, put emily back in PanO where she belongs and stop giving the other factions access to the highly restricted PanO design space
What's that design space again? I can't hear you over the exploding spec fired grenades and B5 HMGs that I'm outshooting everyone with. [emoji14]
Oh we're restiricted, not every other faciton being given guns that fight better than +1BS combi spam
I've had a great deal of success with Domaru (Neko) Spec fire recently. Linked - Squalo, Fusi link, Daiyokai. Unlinked - Avatar.
I said Corregidor! Who cares about other Nomads? Although we do have a shitton of LFT and ADHL and it's pretty sweet. I would love to see a Mkmn but I don't think it would fit on any troop except maybe Moran. I don't ever need to see a fucking SMG but I bet I will if Tomcats, Hellcats or Wildcats get an overhaul.
The Observance heavily skews our numbers: they literally have 2 plain Combi Rifle profiles (Combi Custodier HD+ and Combi Healer) out of 14 0/0.5 SWC Profiles. If you ignore that crazy sect we mainly benefit from a chunk of Combi+ADHL/LFT/Emitter profiles and obligatory MI BSG profiles.
Those OHKO sidearms can be really useful thou. Makes it hard to ignore the unit or split fire. And shots always slip thru eventually ensuring that they will shut down the troop when they do is awesome. I ADHL guys in ARO quite often, especially from the Jaguar linked.
Druze also have E/M Lgl in links with X Visor. (In both QK and Bayram). So it's 2 profiles in all of Infinity. (Well Druze have only BS12 but still) X Visor spec fire was especially silly in some Kurage Missions. (With that rule that -6 range counts as -3) Ever seen emily spec fire on 10s in 48 Inches?
Emily is great, and if PanO hadn't treacherously betrayed her, PanO would get that sweet BS 16 EM LGL spec fire.
No they wouldn't. It would have been released that way on Army but the PDF would have been changed at the last moment to prevent it. #justkamauthings
Emily is 1BS better than the Druze LGL. I don't think she needs to be nerfed. X-visors should only work with LoS. Because they are a visor. They should not apply to spec-fire because that is stupid. Without the X-visor for spec fire she is fine. Any CJC player can attest that an Alguacil link in the midfield is really, really squishy. Are we seriously having the "insert faction/sectorial here" gets screwed discussion again?
If I came across as saying Correg has a problem I think you can believe me when I say that was unintentional.
Nah, we are talking kitchens and you are complaining about the ingredients :p The problem is, simply, the E/M grenade launcher only Emily has, everything else of her profile is quite ordinary.
Druze has one too, with an X-visor, available in a full link in both Qapu, Druze, & Ikari. The Druze is 1 BS less, but cheaper and in a much tougher link. The Druze E/M LGL does not have the ability to use normal rounds though. I know this because in my last Hunting Party game my Ikari opponent just chucked E/M rounds at my LT until he got a lucky roll and locked it.
