    Hi everyone,

    Considering a profile possessing both Camouflage and a Killer Hacking Device, is there any interest to use Cybermask over re-camouflaging?

    Thanks,

    Mines.

    Edit: for a bit more of an explanation....
    Mines do not trigger against IMP but DO trigger against Camo

    That's a very good point.
    Then it's a choice to make between the -3/-6 malus to be discovered or the ability not to trigger mines...

    You can also use the Impersonation state to deny your opponent the ability to place Impact templates on key units since you aren't allowed to place a template so that it touches an IMP marker - a quaint tactic versus Guided Missile Launchers

    Impersonation state also means your opponent cannot make Intuitive attacks against your model.
