Hi! I’m approaching to Aleph and I’m in need of advices i’ve always leave this faction alone, used to play Nomad most of The time and i’d like to star OSS and Vanilla (for Play Achilles) can you give me son Help building decent lists?
Yeah, sure. Which Achilles profile do you like best? No matter which you choose, Our "one man A-team" usually makes for a pretty simple playstyle. He will be your active attacking piece, at least until he goes down (if he even does). So you don't really have to invest much in secondary threats. Mostly you'll want some ARO pieces to go along with him such as the Proxy mk2 sniper or the Zayin TR bot as well as some specialists to push buttons as that's the one job he won't be able to help with. I like the Naga hacking device for specialist duty. It starts closer to the target, acts as a roadblock for other heavy units, and is well protected in marker state. Anyhow, have a Shukra to make sure your opponent doesn't start by stealing too many orders from Achilles turn one, and have enough orders to keep him fed as long as possible. That's pretty much it. He's a rambo unit, which is a bit risky as that's a lot of eggs in one basket, but he's scary as all hell to your opponent no matter what profile you choose.
I’ve always liked daikini medics. Fast specialists. Good in suppression. The posthumans are of course the best Aleph have to offer. I used to be a big fan of Patroclus, but he is a little late for the party.
to help out with a basic achilles v1 aleph list that I am currently using at the moment. I change and update my lists often but here is just an example of a v1 achilles list: Achilles Main ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 10 ACHILLES (Lieutenant) Spitfire, Nanopulser / Pistol, EXP CC Weapon. (2 | 75) PROXY Mk.1 (Engineer, Deactivator) Combi Rifle, Nanopulser, D-Charges ( | GizmoKit) / Pistol, CC Weapon. (0 | 13) YUDBOT PARA CC Weapon(-3).

Thanks guys!! I've always prefer Achilles the -6 mimetism version, do you think is godd the heavy one too? The Rem Racer boost which rem? And the Evo? Is a very good rem list! A lot of unconscious level!
I am planning on boosting the dakini hmg with the rem racer. The model when given supportware is a very strong active piece. The evo will boost who ever is needed, tr bot for next reactive turn, dakini if it needs to go rambo, or to help the garuda jump down if that is needed. I personally like v1 over v2 due to achilles v1 has no frenzy which could make v2 lose his ability to gain cover.
