HAHa hey guys, i normally play nomads, tunguska main, but i won the cold front ariadna half as well as the advance pack strelock..i have always been interested in ariadna, and its so much different than my nomads, playstyle wise, that i decided to build on the starter and actually play the faction. my question, or questions to you is what playstyle should i expect from these guys? a big camo game like the other ariadnas? and what necessities will i need? I have ordered a scout ojotnik, spetsnaz sniper, and also have the limited edition wardriver hacker.. so heres what i have.. 3 line kazaks 1 vet kazak 1 strelok with k9 1 merc wardriver 2 scouts, shotgun and ojotnk 1 spetsnaz sniper 1 tankhunter ap rifle 1 ratnik i suppose ill need to get the support pack? i could always just proxy something for kazak doctor... and i wonder if he will be linkable with line and vet kazaka in TAC (TAK?)
Hey there, welcome to the wonderful blunt force trauma dispenser that is the Tartary Army Korps. In my experience the army plays more like an elite high-impact force that excels in threat suppression without resorting to too many shenanigans. Or at least this is the way things have been so far, the Streloks, Frontoviks and potentially others are expanding our range of options with things we didn't have access to before like cheap plentiful camo (scouts, as great as they are, can be costly) We don't really have a suppport pack, just individually sold 112, Doktor, and Dozer. You can get the first 2 if you want, and they can come in handy, but they are not going to be making it to most of your lists (as far as we know). The Dozer you will need if you ever want to run Traktor Muls. I would recommend getting your hands on a Spetsnaz HMG. The sniper can be useful but he is weirdly costed, but the HMG has been called downright unfair. Irmandinhos are pretty amazing and you should look into snatching up at least one. A Vet Kazak with AP HMG is also a great purchase. I'll refer you to the Kazak Tactica thread by Pride of Rodina, it has all the info you will need and more!
sweet, and you are sure all these options you are reccomending will make it into TAK upon release? Im fairly sure they wil be being theyre doc, and engineer..traktor mules likely as well. so yeah.. ill check the link out if i can find it :P , thanks! also if nothing else ill proxy that spetsnaz scout as a vassily plushinko until his model releases.. im also going to be playing the line kazaks and vet kazak as a fireteam core, as im fairly certain they will be a core upon release of the TAK profiles..
Everything what was pointed out shoud be in the TAK nearly on 100% only think which I suppose will not make it will be the "112" as I suppose that the TAK doctor option will be limited to the Kazak Doctor. So you should be fine with: Veteran Kakak Line Kazak Scouts Tankhunters Streloks Ratnik Antipode Assault Pack Frontoviks Colonel Voronin Spetznats Dog Wariors Irmandinhos Kazak Doctor Dozers Tractor Muls Wardrivers
Refer to this thread for the tactica: https://forum.corvusbelli.com/threads/ariadnas-finest-tartary-army-corp-tactica-and-hub.43/ Everything @Alri mentioned will be in the sectorial with 99.9% certainty
Do note that the Spetsnaz are about to be repacked into a single box/blister. The Sniper is also really easy to convert into an HMG using the weapon sprue from the Intel SpecOp
You should go buy a spetnaz HMG very fast. They are repacked next month so if you don't buy it now, you will have to buy a second spetsnaz sniper (useless) with it.
The sniper is easily convertable to the Rifle profile if you cut down and file the barrel a bit. The AD Rifle profile is great and you will want to surprise your enemy from time to time by Airborn deployment.
Shotgun is fine but cant go supresive and it is realy hard to outshot the supp.fire specnatz. Plus the rifle on him is usualy fine even past the 16 inches if the enemy does not have longrange weapon aswell.
I usually just proxy the Spetsnaz Sniper as the HMG version as I always take two and I like model variety. With that in mind, every TAK list should start with 2 Spetsnaz HMG's. I'm still hoping for increased AVA so I can add in a shotgun one too.
I swapped the sniper's arms for the TH ones, looks pretty great. It will look even better once I actually file off the shoulder pad ranks
