Infinity Army 7 (N4) Updates & Bugs

Army: Tunguska
Troop: Raul Spector/Jelena
Browser: Chrome
Description: added Jelena and Spector FTO to the same list, got a shared Availability flag

 

Army: Various
Troop: Extreme Zellenkrieger
Browser/OS: All

Extreme Zellenkrieger is missing Metachemistry (Reroll). I can't imagine it's an actual change instead of just a bug – why would the normal Zellenkrieger have it but not the extreme one?

 

I think you ment "Metachemistry (Reroll)" or "Impetuous" but without reroll on it´s own =)

 

I meant Metacchemistry. Thanks for spotting it.

 

Army: Tohaa
Troop: Kosuil (Reinforcement)
Browser: Chrome

Army: Tohaa
Troop: Raasail (Reinforcement)
Browser: Chrome
Description: Spitfire option is only 1 SWC compared to 1.5 for non-reinforcement version. Is this correct?

Army: NA2 Factions
Troop: Wardriver
Browser: Chrome
Description: The Commlink option lacks the (+1) option compared to the Tohaa list for the same cost. Is this correct?

 

Army: Probably Any
Troop: Mercenary Contractors
Browser: Opera
Description: When adding a solo Mercenary Contractor to the 2nd group it get's flagged as an illegal list saying that I have an empty group and it (still) marks a list with 11 models in a single combat group (when one fo them is a mercenary contractor) as a legal one. Since ITS15 they should count into group and list limits. I've already reported that second part and it didn't get fixed yet.

 

They also lack the 'Impetuous' skill on its own. Morlocks have the skill and all the new Warbands have the Impetuous Order marked next to te Regular/Irregular one, but no Impetuous skill in their skill set

 

In OTM It's not possible to submit roster with reinforcements to a tournament that has or hasn't the reinforcement extra selected.
https://otm.corvusbelli.com/private/event/info/63f05efb8 (reinf extra selected)

Am I the only one who still has sync problems between the mobile app and the desktop computer? No matter what I do (log out and re-log in, hard refresh of the desktop app with cash-clearing, reinstalling the mobile app), I can't get them to reliably sync with each other. It's very frustrating. Does anyone know anything about how to get it to work?

 

I use a printer. :D

 

The Lasiq with Marksman Rifle (Viral) is just a Lasiq with a regular Marksman Rifle, while all other loadouts have kind of viral ammunition (DA+Shock vs. BTS).

 

My app told me it got updated today, but I can't see any changes and none of the bugs mentioned above have been fixed. Is there a changelog, @Koni?

 

Heh, just another nail in the coffin of reinforcements

 

The cost of Commlink + Specialist Operative seems to be 10pts/0,5SWC (regardless of any bonus models that the particular Commlink provides), but the Wardriver seems to pay exactly that, while not needing/receiving Specialist Operative - is this correct?

Then again, my JSA gets to bring a Hacker that can't provide my forces with any Hacking support, so what's a point here or there?

 

I get that some NA2s having access to factional commlinks was probably not intended from the start, but frankly I kinda think that bug should have been kept as a feature.

Dahshat having access to the +2 commlink, for example, felt pretty on theme given the sectorial's emphasis on low cost, spammable troops.

What reinforcements needs is more diverse and interesting commlink options, not less.

Really hoping we see a big update both to the reinforcements rules and reinforcements stuff in the army (mostly in terms of commlink options) soonish.

Honestly, I'd be really happy if instead of doing another set of sectorial updates, CB spent some time crafting a big, general comprehensive balance pass. Not even just from an external balance perspective (although that'd be great obviously), but also internally. I can count the number of factions with really good internal balance on one hand (Starmada, and uhhh... debatably TAK?), while it's very common to have a ton of options in a faction that are just not worth ever considering. To give some examples, in Haqq, Maggie, Govads, Kaplans, Yasbir, Shujae, and a bunch of other stuff are at best really really niche, but are not worth even considering in a competitive list most of the time - Aleph is in a similar place with units like Drakios, Makhai and Maximus sitting right next to Achilles, Eudoros and Agamemnon.

 

True, bringing a Hacker that can use Zero Pain (and only Zero Pain) seems a little pointless.

Though I guess he does count as Specialist by the very virtue of being a Hacker. Not a very good Specialist but still.

I have a feeling that the very purpose of a Commlink trooper is to sit on their butt, as a glorified Order Monkey, until the Reinforcements arrive. Then automatically skip to the Reinforcements Section and to exactly the same for them.

Given that, 22pts for a Wardriver is not that bad by comparison with other armies' Commlinks. Sure, there are cheaper Commlink troopers around, and those who are, tend to be better combatants too. But 22/0,5 seems within the general average. And if everyone is playing with REF, everyone is handicapped by about the same amount.

But I still can't see the logic behind the idea.

 

Well something more changed. I'm not seeing comms on anything right now.

Edit: I'm not seeing comms troops in my app but I still see them on the computer. Could just be a bug. Got my hopes up lol.
