Raindog Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Per Hellois on WHite Noise, the Character affected by the Back Door Crisis, will, in the future, receive and extra order, if they are the Data Tracker, in ITS games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Rock Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Seriously? That's a really lousy thing. Who in their right mind is going to make Voronin their datatracker? If that's true, then CB isn't thinking clearly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some missions you just need to keep your DataTracker alive... that’s sounds like an amazing time to make him your DataTracker. That would make him effectively add 3 orders to your pool.

Sgt. Rock Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 That's a bit of a corner case. I could see that being worthwhile in limited insertion, but under normal circumstances, take 3 Line Kazaks and have a much less obvious Lt. and points left over. For the most part, though, they took a semi-useless character and gave him a semi-useless bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exile Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 For Ariadna, sure. Datatracker Tarik or Kusangi? Oof. Quite the bonus. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Rock Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Well, yeah, but they could have given a little more thought on how to make him more useful, rather than putting a corner case bonus on a model nobody takes anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see him in a lot vanilla lists because of that Strategos L1. There are 4 scenarios which the enemy scores points for killing the enemy DataTracker (Annihilation, Show of Force, FireFight, Deadly Dance). Nearly the same number require the DataTracker to go killing things (Decapitation, Looting and Sabotaging, Transmission Matrix, The Grid, and Comms Center), the rest you can do without getting your DataTracker in a fight. For 21 points getting 3 orders, I suspect he'll be pretty popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Rock Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Holy threadomancy, Batman! But with the new rules they just released for the "Datatracker special order" I'm kinda peeved. They gave Voronin an irregular order? That can't be turned regular? WTF, CB? Must be nice to be able to spend it on someone like Mansuri. As it is, Voronin is destined for the trash heap at this point. Cool model, but he's going on the shelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
