Played a couple games with him last night and made a list with Achilles, I love this guy. Offensively he is not terrible. I managed to get him midfield both times and his shotgun was great at BS12. Granted that was way to offensive with him...but with Achilles and Counter Intelligence combo going first is a real prospect and give real pain to the opponent.
A list I am super excited to play is: Spoiler: List Aleph Main────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 10 PROXY Mk.1 Engineer Combi Rifle, Nanopulser, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife.

Should be getting in some games tonight and a local tourney next week with this exact list and another list that is a variation of this (lose the daleth and add the DA ccw submachine gun krakot) to help solve the grid scenario. If interested, can post a how the shukra performed. Did I use the deva LT more aggressively to warrant the CoC and did counter intelligence make a large impact? The scenarios are: The grid Supplies Power pack So I imagine in supplies and the grid, going first is crucial and in power pack, I plan on making the Deva LT my data tracker which should mean i either win big or the shukra becomes relevant.
Sadly I swapped out the shukra xD. I got one game in and my deployment zone seemed a bit cramped. That and with power pack having an extremely odd deployment zone, having more people start further out seemed a boon to me. The list actually played: Spoiler: Aleph Main Aleph Main ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 10 PROXY Mk.1 Engineer Combi Rifle, Nanopulser, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife.

I know you save a SWC but I still love my Myrm Officer. Late game Lt. order on a more combat capable model with smoke to take objectives is just too much of a momentum keeper for me. One of those models that wins games too regularly to risk replacing for me. However I would probably use it for my low point Ajax Lt. lists. I do love the Biovisor, usually the problem with Biovisor is that it's hard to take one that's useless if there's nothing to use it on. Not a problem here.
I would also use shukra CoC only if i need the points or if playing vedic, the myrmidon CoC brings far more for a similar cost (excluding SWC).
