    Hi everyone! I plan to update the guide some time in the future but don't expect it to be soon because of three reasons.

    Link team rules are probably going to change in the near future.

    I need a considerable amount of games to be able to give a proper opinion.

    I'm happy with N4 but not with the faction design/balance and I'm concerned about the direction of the game, so I'm taking a brake with other games.


    I'm still playing infinity but with the situation and my disappointment with the game changes I will need more time until I can make a decent guide again.

    Even with that I'm happy to see the thread alive, I will take ideas from here.

    I Wonder about your thoughts about Tak in N4. More hacking presence with spotlight Will effect Tak badly for sure.

    Not really. Almost every model that will be moving through repeaters has stealth. TAK also has easy access to super cheap suicide pieces like dogs or Streloks with SMGs to hunt down hackers and repeaters.

    Still i believe that irmandinho is awesome and Still deserves to be taken one in each group.
    I always start designing an army with these. Then take a 16pts strelok.

    Due to obvious events I'm no longer proud of some of the GIFs I used for the guide, I have deleted them.
    I would also like to change the name to Kazak schola an unofficial TAK guide or something similar, but I can't do it myself, maybe some admin or moderator can do it for me.

    Also, not super happy with the state of the game right now. If infinity improves as a game and gets better updates, I will make sure to update the guide with better jokes and images.

    Feel free to post your guides lists and ideas here, it's always cool to read them.

    TBH, if they're of Kazak / Cossack descent, they should be Ukrainian not Russian marked anyway :)

    Call them " Kyv Freedom Fighter Brigade". . .

    Or even "Ukrainan Foreign Legion" especially if there are Ariadnan Troopers that are not from a specific Ethnical Group. . .

    And I say this WITHOUT commenting too much on RW events; just to Germane Topic of Relevance of a Game Background POW ("Point Of View" NOT "Prisoners Of War"). . .

    @psychoticstorm

    If that comment of mine is somehow offending or against Forum Rules, I'll gladly edit it, or You can delete. . .

    I know that the Forum Tensions were at an-all high even BEFORE Last Thursday. . .

    @stevenart74 nah I don't like that either.
    This place is just for fantasy, friends, dice and dumb fun. At least for me.

    I would prefer to keep it like that, there are already many places to discuss real life events I would like to keep this thread for fun TAK lists.

    Yes, please leave real world politics and current sad events out, I think the world is quite mad as it is, and forum members do not need to be reminded of it here too.

    @MATRAKA14 if you want the thread to change name PM me and I will change it.

    Pretty much this. I stopped painting TAK because they made me feel a little weird with what's going on right now. Time to start replacing all the Russian flags on my TAK with the blue and yellow.

    Same reason my invincible army is a "korean detachment" rather than the standard china.

    Isn't that the point of the hobby? An escape from a world gone mad by making stuff our own?

    Welp, dunno if TAK is terribly popular lately. That said, the changes to fireteams we got some... lets just say interesting options. Keep in mind my friend who plays MO has a strange phobia of Ratniks. Ava3 and linkable in a haris, who needs SWC anyways?

    So lets talk about these changes! I'm going to bring TAK to one of our largest tournaments here in Australia so I'm interested in people's opinions (being relatively new myself).

    It seems that the Frontovik AP sniper and Vet Kazak are no longer auto includes for the core.
    I am loath to lose the Frontovik as that's the only real MSV in the army - but now it's risky standing him up on ARO duty. I do feel he needs a harris - 2 shots with an AP Sniper rifle doesn't seem enough. 70-80 points is a lot to spend on 3 wounds and minimal armour though. I'd like to get them up the board doing stuff, but I worry about direct templates and mines.

    For the Vet Kazak - I'm more inclined to run him as a solo piece - I don't think the Frontoviks are good as a Harris - unless you take the sniper and a paramedic and that's getting expensive.

    On the plus side, our solo pieces like Vasilly are better, as they're not contending with Core Castles with +3 BS on gunfighters.

    I don't see anything particularly new and interesting with the fireteams... unless I'm missing something?

    EDIT - I did think of something - you could run a Haris of 1 Vet Kazak or a Frontovik and 2 x 9 point Line Kazaks - just to give them the extra burst in the most cost effective way possible. Put in a paramedic if you're taking the Frontovik on the offchance your opponent isn't hitting you with shock

    Doing a bit of necromancy here, but any chances that this Tactica sees any update for N4 ?

    I have to say it's my favorite one, the mix between jokes / gifs / memes and real strategy was really cool.
    And hey, more than ever, this sectorial is the one using "more steel on Yuri" technique instead of learning basic C/C++ to be able to program at least a gameboy.
    N4 is about spotlight, heavy infantries and 15 orders battle forces; don't tell me that it could destroy the spirit of our Ratniks ? Because I won't believe it. Chernobog becomes a real thing, Steel Phalanx is returning, I used a deactivator last week... nothing is impossible !

    @MATRAKA14 , we need the comeback of our dear slav-hero in these hard times.

    Still waiting for this post to be resurrected. I recently started playing with TAK and I have the impression that the sectorial is very, very outdated. I suffer facing any opponent, even when I win, the victory comes at a very high cost for my poor Cossacks.

    Seeing as TAK is getting a huge update and new units in N5 (which drops in November 18th), it does not make sense to update this until after.
